Welcome to Frynds!
We built Frynds because we believe that social media should feel like real life — private, human, and calm.

Our mission is simple: make memory sharing about connection again.
These Terms of Service (“Terms”), together with our Privacy Policy, form the agreement (“User Agreement”) between you and Frynds.

They explain what you can expect from us, what we expect from you, and how we can keep Frynds safe, respectful, and real.
If you use Frynds, you’re agreeing to these Terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use our services.

1. Who Can Use Frynds
   Frynds (“we”, “our”, or “us”) offers mobile applications and websites that let you share photos and messages privately with your friends.
   To use Frynds, you must:
   • Be a real human being (no bots, AI accounts, or automation).
   • Be at least 12 years old (or the age of consent in your country).
   • Have the legal right to create an account, whether for yourself or on behalf of an organization.
   All references to “you” and “your” in these Terms apply to the end user — that means you, the person using Frynds.

2. Data Protection and Privacy
   Our Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices about your data.
   By using Frynds, you understand and agree that:
   • We collect only limited personal data (name, email, and date of birth).
   • Photos, messages, and posts you upload are stored securely on Google Firebase servers.
   • We do not sell or share your information with advertisers.
   Your data belongs to you. You can delete your account or request data deletion anytime by contacting support@frynds.eu.

3. Content
   We want Frynds to be a space for authenticity, not performance.

Be kind, be real, and respect others.
   “Content” means any photo, message, caption, or other material shared through Frynds.

You are responsible for the Content you share, including making sure you have the right to share it and that it doesn’t break any laws or our Terms.
   We don’t tolerate:
   • Harassment, hate, threats, or abuse
   • Child sexual exploitation, violence, or self-harm content
   • Invasion of privacy or intellectual property theft
   If you post violative content, we may remove it and suspend your account.
   You own the content you share on Frynds.

By uploading content, you give us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host and display that content within the app for the purpose of operating our services.
   We will never use your private content for advertising or marketing without your explicit consent.

4. Reporting Violations
   If you see something on Frynds that violates these Terms or someone’s rights, please report it.

You can do this directly in the app or by emailing support@frynds.eu.
   We take reports seriously and will review them quickly and fairly.

5. Ending or Suspending Accounts
   We may temporarily or permanently suspend accounts that:
   • Violate these Terms
   • Post illegal or harmful content
   • Create security or technical risks for other users
   In most cases, we’ll follow a three-strike policy — three violations may lead to a permanent ban.

However, severe violations (such as child exploitation or criminal activity) will result in immediate removal.
   You can delete your account anytime in the app’s settings or by contacting us.

If your account remains inactive for over 2 years, we may delete it after notifying you.

6. License to Use Frynds
   Frynds and all related software, designs, and trademarks are protected by copyright and intellectual property laws.
   We give you a personal, non-exclusive, revocable license to use Frynds as intended — to share with friends, not for resale, scraping, or commercial use.
   This license ends automatically when you stop using the app or if we terminate your account for violating these Terms.
   We love feedback. If you share suggestions or ideas, you agree we can use them freely to improve Frynds.

7. Limitation of Liability
   Frynds is built with care and integrity, but no technology is perfect.

By using Frynds, you agree that Finn Harkema and anyone acting on behalf of Frynds is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app.
   Our total liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law in your country of residence.

8. Updates to These Terms
   We may occasionally update these Terms to reflect new features or legal requirements.

If changes affect your rights, we’ll let you know about 30 days before they take effect.

By continuing to use Frynds after that, you agree to the updated Terms.
   If you don’t agree with the changes, you can stop using Frynds and delete your account.

9. Contact Us
   We’d love to hear from you — whether it’s feedback, a concern, or just to say hi.
