Terms of Service

By creating an account or using Yapped (the “Service”), you agree to these Terms. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you confirm you're authorized to accept these Terms for it.

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country) to use the Service.

You're responsible for your account and everything that happens under it. Keep your password and recovery codes secure and enable two-factor authentication.

Usernames are provided on a first-come basis and remain our property to administer. We may reclaim or change usernames that impersonate others, infringe trademarks, are abusive, or are held inactive for resale.

You keep ownership of everything you upload or publish. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display and distribute your content solely to operate and improve the Service.

You confirm you have the rights to everything you upload — including music, images, fonts and video — and that it doesn't violate anyone's rights or the law.

Don't use the Service to: impersonate people or organizations or imply official verification; harass, threaten or dox anyone; share sexual content involving minors, non-consensual intimate imagery, or graphic violence; distribute malware, phishing pages or IP loggers; spam, scrape or abuse rate limits; infringe copyrights or trademarks; or attempt to bypass security, custom-CSS restrictions or plan limits.

We may remove content, suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules. Report violations with the Report button.

Paid features are billed in advance through our payment processors (Stripe, Razorpay). Card subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; prepaid periods don't renew.

Prices may change with notice before your next billing period. Refund requests are reviewed case by case — contact support within 14 days. Refunded purchases remove the associated entitlements. Gift codes are valid for 12 months and are non-refundable once redeemed.

Storage limits and maximum file sizes depend on your plan. Files are scanned and may be quarantined if flagged. Anonymous uploads can be removed at any time.

Pastes with expiry or burn-after-read settings are deleted automatically; we can't recover them.

You must own or control any domain you connect. We may remove domains used for abuse or that fail re-verification.

You can delete your account anytime in Settings. We may suspend or terminate access for violations or to protect the Service and its users. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive.

The Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. Third-party integrations (Discord, Spotify, GitHub, YouTube and others) may change or become unavailable.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.

We'll notify you of material changes through the dashboard or by email. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept them.
