Legal
Terms of service
Last updated: [DATE] — TEMPLATE: have an attorney review before launch.
1. The service
Vowshot ("we", "us") provides event photo and video collection: hosts create a gallery, guests upload media via a link or QR code, and hosts can view and download that media. "Host" means the account holder (a couple or a vendor); "guest" means anyone uploading to a gallery.
2. Accounts
You must provide an accurate email address and keep access to it secure. You are responsible for activity under your account. Vendor accounts may create galleries on behalf of their clients and are responsible for having permission to do so.
3. Payments
Couple plans are a one-time payment per event. Vendor plans are a recurring subscription billed until cancelled; cancellation stops future billing and takes effect at the end of the current period. Payments are processed by Stripe. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable once an event gallery has received uploads beyond the free tier.
4. Your content
Hosts and guests keep ownership of everything they upload. You grant us a limited license to store, process, and deliver that content solely to operate the service. We do not sell your content or use it for advertising. Hosts are responsible for having appropriate rights to collect guest media at their event and for how they use it afterward.
5. Acceptable use
Don't upload unlawful content, content that infringes others' rights, or malware. Don't abuse upload endpoints or attempt to access galleries that aren't yours. We may remove content or suspend accounts that violate these terms.
6. Storage period
Media is stored for 12 months from the event date, with unlimited downloads during that time. After the storage period, media may be permanently deleted. We'll make reasonable efforts to remind hosts before deletion.
7. Disclaimers and liability
The service is provided "as is". To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, including lost memories due to guest error, device failure, or network conditions at a venue. Always keep your own copies of irreplaceable media.
8. Changes
We may update these terms; material changes will be notified by email or in the app. Continued use after changes means acceptance. Questions: [CONTACT EMAIL].
