These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Binged mobile application (the "App"), operated by Sprezza LLC, a limited liability company based in Illinois, United States ("Sprezza," "we," "us," or "our"). Please read them carefully.
By creating an account or using the App, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old to use Binged. By using the App, you represent that you are 13 or older and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may use the App only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian.
2. Your account
You create an account using Sign in with Apple or Sign in with Google. You are responsible for maintaining the security of the device and third-party account you use to access Binged, and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us at legal@sprezza.io if you believe your account has been compromised. You may not use another person's account or share your account in a way that violates these Terms.
3. License to use the App
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use the App for your personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, reverse-engineer, or create derivative works of the App, except as permitted by law.
4. Your content
Ownership. You retain ownership of the content you create and submit to Binged, including your rankings, reviews, posts, comments, lists, and profile information ("User Content").
License to us. By submitting User Content, you grant Sprezza a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, display, distribute, and otherwise use your User Content for the purpose of operating, providing, and promoting the App. This license reflects the social nature of the App — for example, showing your reviews and activity to other users. It ends when you delete your User Content or account, except where the content has been shared with others who have not deleted it, or where we must retain it to comply with law.
Your responsibility. You are solely responsible for your User Content. You represent that you have the rights necessary to submit it and that it does not violate these Terms or any law or third-party right.
Public by default. Binged is a social app. By default, your profile and User Content are public and visible to other users. You can adjust your visibility in Settings. Do not post anything you would not want to be publicly available.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to use Binged to:
- Post content that is unlawful, harassing, hateful, threatening, defamatory, obscene, sexually explicit involving minors, or that promotes violence or self-harm;
- Harass, bully, impersonate, or infringe the rights of others;
- Post spam, scams, or misleading content, or engage in manipulation of rankings, scores, reviews, or engagement;
- Upload malware or attempt to disrupt, overload, hack, or gain unauthorized access to the App or its systems;
- Scrape, harvest, or collect data from the App except as expressly permitted;
- Violate any applicable law or these Terms.
We may remove content and suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules.
6. Reporting, moderation, and termination
You can report content or users you believe violate these Terms, and you can block other users. We may review reported content and take action at our discretion, including removing content and suspending or terminating accounts. We may also suspend or terminate your access at any time if we believe you have violated these Terms or to protect the App or its users. You may delete your account at any time from within the App.
7. Intellectual property
The App, including its design, software, logos, trademarks, and content we provide (excluding User Content and third-party content), is owned by Sprezza LLC and protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the limited license in Section 3, we grant you no rights to our intellectual property.
8. Third-party services and content
Binged relies on third-party services, and your use of them may be subject to their terms:
- The Movie Database (TMDB). Television show data and imagery in the App are provided by TMDB. This product uses TMDB and the TMDB APIs but is not endorsed, certified, or otherwise approved by TMDB.
- Apple and Google. Sign-in and app distribution are provided through Apple and Google.
- Supabase. Backend, authentication, and storage services.
We are not responsible for third-party services or content and do not endorse them.
9. App Store terms (Apple and Google)
If you download the App from the Apple App Store or Google Play, you acknowledge that:
- These Terms are between you and Sprezza LLC only, not with Apple or Google.
- Apple and Google have no obligation to provide support or maintenance for the App.
- To the extent required by the applicable app store, Apple and Google (and their subsidiaries) are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
- You will comply with the applicable app store's terms of service.
10. Copyright policy (DMCA)
We respect intellectual-property rights and respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement. If you believe content on Binged infringes your copyright, send a written notice to legal@sprezza.io including:
- Your physical or electronic signature;
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed;
- Identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to locate it;
- Your contact information;
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
- A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.
We may remove infringing material and terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.
11. Payments
Binged is currently free to use. If we introduce paid features (such as a subscription tier) in the future, additional terms — including billing, auto-renewal, and refund terms, generally administered through the Apple App Store or Google Play — will apply and will be presented to you at that time.
12. Disclaimers
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY CONTENT (INCLUDING RECOMMENDATIONS OR SCORES) IS ACCURATE OR RELIABLE.
13. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SPREZZA LLC AND ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE APP. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $100. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THESE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
14. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Sprezza LLC from any claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your User Content, your use of the App, or your violation of these Terms or any law or third-party right.
15. Dispute resolution — arbitration and class-action waiver
Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights.
Informal resolution. Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us at legal@sprezza.io and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.
Binding arbitration. Except for claims that qualify for small-claims court, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered under the rules of a recognized arbitration provider, rather than in court, except that either party may seek injunctive relief for intellectual-property or unauthorized-access claims.
Class-action waiver. You and Sprezza agree that disputes will be brought only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, or representative proceeding.
Opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement within 30 days of first accepting these Terms by emailing legal@sprezza.io with your request.
16. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to Section 15, any disputes not subject to arbitration will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Illinois, and you consent to their jurisdiction.
17. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Effective date" above and, where appropriate, provide notice within the App. Your continued use of Binged after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
18. Miscellaneous
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Sprezza regarding the App.
