1. Scope
These Terms apply to every relationship between the Operator and anyone who uses the Service (“users”) concerning its use.
The Community Rules in the app, the Privacy Policy and other rules the Operator publishes in the Service form part of these Terms.
By creating an account you agree to these Terms.
2. Eligibility
The Service is only for people aged 18 and over. Anyone under 18 may not use it.
You may not use the Service if:
- you are under 18;
- the Operator has previously suspended or deleted your account for breaching these Terms; or
- you are, or are associated with, an organised crime group or other anti-social force.
If we find that someone is not eligible, we may suspend or delete the account.
3. Your account
You create an account with a login name and a password; no e-mail address or phone number is needed. Please enter your date of birth accurately.
The recovery code shown once when you create your account lets you set a new password if you forget it. Because we hold no e-mail address or phone number, we have no other way to verify you. If you lose both your password and your recovery code, the account cannot be recovered.
You are responsible for keeping your login name, password and recovery code safe, and must not disclose, lend or transfer them. Letting someone else use your account, or buying or selling accounts, is prohibited.
If you notice unauthorised use of your account, change your password immediately and contact us.
4. Fees
The Service is free to use. You pay for your own device and data connection.
If the Operator introduces paid features in future, it will state their content, price and payment method in advance and set out the applicable conditions separately.
5. Prohibited conduct
When using the Service you must not:
- break the law, public order or morals, these Terms or the Community Rules in the app;
- use the Service if you are under 18, or try to contact anyone under 18;
- take part in any form of child sexual abuse or exploitation, including sending, requesting or sharing sexual images of minors, or grooming (see the Child Safety Standards);
- impersonate anyone, use someone else's photos, or register false information (including your date of birth);
- harass, threaten or stalk anyone, use discriminatory language, or damage anyone's reputation;
- send sexual content the other person did not want, or send or share intimate images without consent (including so-called revenge porn);
- solicit or arrange prostitution, compensated dating or any other sexual relationship in exchange for money;
- defraud people of money or personal information; recruit for investments, side jobs, multi-level marketing or religion; or use the Service for sales, promotion or advertising;
- publish anyone's personal information (address, contact details, workplace and so on) without their consent;
- infringe copyright, portrait rights, privacy or any other right of anyone else;
- gain unauthorised access, exploit vulnerabilities, use automated tools or scraping, or overload the Service;
- create new accounts to evade the Operator's measures, or improperly operate multiple accounts;
- provide benefits to or otherwise cooperate with anti-social forces; or
- do anything else the Operator reasonably judges to interfere with the healthy operation of the Service.
6. What you post
Copyright and other rights in your profile, photos, messages and anything else you post or send (“your content”) remain with you or the rightful owner.
You grant the Operator a free licence to use your content (store, copy, display, transmit and convert its size or format) as far as needed to provide, operate, secure and improve the Service. The Operator will not use your content beyond this, for example in advertising.
You confirm that you have the rights needed for your content and that it does not infringe anyone's rights. You are responsible for your content.
If your profile text (display name, bio and so on) appears to contain contact details, social-media IDs or links, your profile may not be shown to other users until the Operator has reviewed it.
7. Intellectual property
Rights in the Service's software, design, logos, text and other content (other than users' content) belong to the Operator or the rightful owners.
8. Communicating with other users
Your first message is sent as a message request. Until the other person accepts, you cannot send further messages, photos or audio. Respect their choice and do not keep contacting someone who has not accepted.
Treat other users with respect. If someone makes you uncomfortable, use the block and report features.
9. Measures by the Operator
If the Operator finds that a user has breached, or may have breached, these Terms or the Community Rules in the app, it may take the following measures without prior notice:
- a warning;
- hiding or removing content;
- limiting features, such as sending messages or media or appearing in search;
- temporarily suspending the account; or
- deleting the account.
To prevent abuse, temporary limits may apply automatically, for example when someone contacts many people in a short time or receives reports from several users within a short period.
If you disagree with a measure, you can appeal in the app or by contacting support in the app (Settings > Help and safety tips > Contact support). The Operator may not disclose the detailed reasons for a measure.
Where necessary for user safety or required by law, the Operator may provide information to the police or other authorities.
10. Leaving the Service
You may request deletion of your account at any time in the app (Settings > Delete account). If you cannot do it yourself, follow the steps on the Request Account Deletion page. After a 7-day grace period your account and data are deleted and cannot be restored. What is deleted and what is kept is set out in the Privacy Policy.
11. Changes, interruption and discontinuation
The Operator may change the Service or stop providing it. If it stops providing the Service, it will give reasonable advance notice.
The Operator may interrupt all or part of the Service without notice for maintenance, failures, natural disasters or other unavoidable reasons.
12. Disclaimers
The Operator does not guarantee that you will meet any particular person through the Service, or that other users' profiles (including their age) are accurate.
Disputes between users, including anything that happens when users meet in person, are to be resolved between the people involved, although the Operator will take the steps needed for safety, such as handling reports. If you meet someone, read Safety first and take care of your own safety.
The Operator is liable for damage caused to users for reasons attributable to it. Unless the Operator acted intentionally or with gross negligence, its liability is limited to direct damage that would ordinarily arise.
13. Changes to these Terms
The Operator may change these Terms in accordance with the Civil Code provisions on standard terms. It will announce the new content and the date it takes effect in the app or on this website, with reasonable notice before that date, and may ask for your consent again for important changes.
14. General
The Operator gives notices by displaying them in the app or publishing them on this website.
You may not transfer your position or rights and obligations under these Terms to anyone else without the Operator's consent.
If any part of these Terms is held invalid, the rest remains in effect.
15. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of Japan. The [To be announced] has exclusive jurisdiction in the first instance over any dispute relating to the Service.
16. Contact and language
Questions about these Terms: support in the app (Settings > Help and safety tips > Contact support).
This English version is provided for convenience. If it differs from the Japanese version, the Japanese version prevails.
