These Terms include everything in this document, as well as those in the Privacy Policy, Creator Agreement, Content Guidelines, and Copyright Dispute Policy. If you don't agree to all of the following, you may not use or access Flowjin in any manner.

Creating an Account on Flowjin

You may be required to sign up for an account and select a password. You promise to provide us with accurate, complete, and up-to-date registration information about yourself.

You agree that you will only use Flowjin for your own personal or organizational use, and not on behalf of or for the benefit of any third party. You may not transfer your account to anyone else without our prior written permission.

You may not select as your Flowjin account a name that you don't have the right to use, or another person's name with the intent to impersonate that person. Flowjin reserves the right to refuse registration of or cancel a Flowjin account name at its discretion.

Posting Content on Flowjin

First and foremost, you own what you create. Any original content you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide to Flowjin remains yours and is protected by copyright and any other applicable intellectual property laws.

That includes Flows, subscriber lists, any other media you upload in your Flows, and any information that you provide to obtain a Flowjin account. It also includes any questions or answers posted on any current or future Flow posts on Flowjin.

Anything posted, uploaded, stored, or otherwise provided through Flowjin is referred to as a "Post" in these Terms. There are a few rules that apply to all Posts:

• Don't Infringe: Your Posts should not violate someone else's (including Flowjin's) rights. Don't copy, reproduce, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, upload, display, license, sell, commercialize or otherwise exploit for any purpose any content not owned by you unless you have prior consent from the owner of that content.
• Limited License to Us: In order to display your Posts on Flowjin, and to allow other users to enjoy them, you grant us certain rights in your Posts:
• Operating Flowjin: You hereby grant Flowjin a license to translate, modify, reproduce, and otherwise act with respect to your Posts to enable us to provide, improve, and notify you about new features within Flowjin. You understand and agree that we may need to make changes to your Posts to conform and adapt those Posts to the technical requirements of networks, devices, services, or media, and this license includes the rights to do so. For example, we may need to modify your Flow to make sure it is viewable on an iPhone as well as a computer.
• Public Posts: If you share a Post with other users on Flowjin, then you grant us the license above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Post. Also, you grant all other users of Flowjin a license to access the Post, and to use and exercise all rights in it, as permitted by the functionality of Flowjin.
• Term of License: You agree that the licenses you grant are royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, and worldwide. This is a license only – your ownership in Posts is not affected.

We reserve the right to remove any content from Flowjin at any time, for any reason (including, but not limited to, if someone alleges you contributed that content in violation of these Terms), in our sole discretion, and without notice.

Intellectual Property and Reporting Infringement

We respect others' intellectual property rights, and we reserve the right to delete or disable content alleged to be infringing, and to terminate the accounts of repeat alleged infringers. You promise to abide by copyright notices, trademark rules, information, and other restrictions you may receive from us or that are posted on Flowjin.

Paid Subscriptions on Flowjin

If you create Flows through Flowjin, you are a Creator. If you subscribe to a Flow, you are a Subscriber. Subscribers subscribe to Flows directly through the Creator's subdomain on Flowjin.

A Creator may offer their Flows for free or for a subscription fee, to be determined in the Creator's discretion. Subscribers may choose to subscribe to Creator Flows on Flowjin and agree to incur any applicable subscription fees.

Creators will set prices for their Flows, and may change the prices at their sole discretion through their Flow settings, though no price changes shall apply retroactively.

In the event that a Subscriber has a dispute with a Creator, you agree that Flowjin is under no obligation to become involved other than to direct any inquiries regarding a Creator's Flow to the appropriate Creator pursuant to the Creator Agreement. To learn more about how Flowjin manages its relationships with Creators, you should check out the Creator Agreement.

Terminating Your Account

Flowjin is free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of Flowjin, or your account, for any reason at our discretion. We will try to provide advance notice to you prior to our terminating your account so that you are able to retrieve any important Posts you may have uploaded to your account, but we may not do so if we determine it would be impractical, illegal, not in the interest of someone's safety or security, or otherwise harmful to the rights or property of Flowjin.

Flowjin also allows you to delete your account at any time, to request the deletion of your account you may contact us at contact@flowjin.com. When you delete your account, any Posts associated with that account will also be deleted. However, any Post that you have made public may remain available.

You understand and agree that it may not be possible to completely delete your content from Flowjin's records or backups, and that your Posts may remain viewable elsewhere to the extent that they were copied or stored by other users. Please refer to our Privacy Policy to understand how we treat information you provide to us after you have stopped using Flowjin.

You agree that some of the obligations in these Terms will be in force even after you terminate your account. All of the following terms will survive termination: any obligation you have to pay us or indemnify us, any limitations on our liability, any terms regarding ownership of intellectual property rights, terms regarding disputes between us, and any other terms that, by their nature, should survive termination of these Terms.

If you have deleted your account by mistake, contact us immediately at contact@Flowjin.com – we will try to help, but unfortunately, we can't promise that we can recover or restore anything.

Changes to Flowjin

We're always trying to improve Flowjin, so our products and services may change over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of Flowjin, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of Flowjin. We'll try to give you notice when we make a material change to Flowjin that would adversely affect you, but this isn't always possible or practical.

Changes to the Terms

We are constantly trying to improve our products and services, so these Terms may need to change along with Flowjin. We reserve the right to change the Terms at any time, but if we do, we will bring it to your attention by placing a notice on the website, by sending you an email, and/or by some other means.

If you don't agree with the new Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use Flowjin. If you use Flowjin in any way after a change to the Terms is effective and notice has been provided, that means you agree to all of the changes.

Except for changes by us as described here, no other amendment or modification of these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both you and us.

Violations of the Terms

Failure to follow any of these Terms shall constitute a breach of these Terms, which may result in immediate termination of your account. Flowjin has the sole right to decide whether you are in violation of any of the restrictions set forth in these Terms.
