SnapShark.app Terms & Conditions of Use

Date of Last Revision: April 30, 2024

We strive to create consistent standards for all of our users. This agreement was written in English (US). To the extent any translated version of this agreement conflicts with the English version, the English version controls. If any portion of this statement is found to be unenforceable, the remaining portion will remain in full force and effect.

As of May 29, 2018, SnapShark.app is owned and operated by SnapShark.app. These Terms of Use apply to your access to and use of SnapShark.app (the “Site”), the official SnapShark.app mobile and Apple TV applications, and the related SnapShark.app services, such as SnapShark.app Pro Services (collectively with the Site and the rest of the foregoing, the “Services”). For example, these Terms of Use apply to your use of the Services to purchase photographic prints, videos or other related merchandise, products and services ("Products") through SnapShark.app approved third party vendors and retailers ("SnapShark.app Vendors").

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES OR CLICKING THAT YOU AGREE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF USE.

These Terms of Use contain provisions that govern how claims that you and SnapShark.app have against each other are resolved (see Section 15 — Dispute Resolution). These provisions require you to resolve certain disputes or claims relating to your use of the Services by binding arbitration, rather than in court. If you do not consent to such terms, you are not permitted to use the Services.

Your use of the Services (such as your purchase of Products) is expressly conditioned upon your agreement to these Terms of Use. If you do not consent to these Terms of Use, you are not permitted to use any Services. If you access the Services on behalf of a company or other entity, you warrant that you are an authorized representative of such company or entity with the right to bind such company or entity to these Terms of Use.

The Services are not targeted towards, nor intended for use by, anyone under the age of 16. If you are between the ages of 16 and 18, you may use the Services only under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms of Use.

SnapShark.app reserves the right to change, modify, revise or otherwise amend any provision of these Terms of Use, and any other terms, policies or guidelines governing your use of the Services, at any time at its sole discretion by providing notice that the Terms of Use have been modified. Such notice may be provided by sending an email, or by posting a notice on the Site, or by posting the revised Terms of Use on the Site and revising the date at the top of these Terms of Use or by such other form of notice as determined by SnapShark.app. Your use of the Services (such as through your purchase of any Products) or your purchase of new Services following the posting of the revised Terms of Use or other notice will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications. Otherwise, any changes or modifications will be effective within thirty (30) days of the posting of the revisions on the Site unless you notify SnapShark.app within such thirty (30) days that you do not agree to the changes and stop using the Services. Therefore, you should review these Terms of Use whenever you access the Services and at least every thirty (30) days to make sure that you understand the terms and conditions that will apply to your use of the Services.

You authorize SnapShark.app to collect, use, disclose and otherwise process information about you as set forth in our Privacy Policy. For residents of the UK or European Economic Area, the preceding sentence is not intended to constitute your “consent” to any processing of your own personal data for purposes of the GDPR or local ePrivacy legislation, and SnapShark.app will seek such consent separately from these Terms of Use where applicable law requires SnapShark.app to have your consent.

Any such unauthorized use may result in the immediate termination of your rights under these Terms of Use and will constitute a breach of the license granted herein.

5. Hyperlinks

You may create a text hyperlink to the Site, provided such link does not portray SnapShark.app or SnapShark.app or any of its Products or Services in a false, misleading, derogatory or otherwise defamatory manner. This limited right may be revoked by SnapShark.app at any time. You may not frame the Site or utilize framing techniques to enclose the Site, SnapShark.app Materials, SnapShark.app Marks or other proprietary information without SnapShark.app’s express prior written consent.

As a part of the Services, we may provide you with access to and use of certain personalized pages and corresponding web addresses (“URLs”) that you may customize. SnapShark.app does not guarantee the availability of any particular web page or URL and reserves the right, at any time and at our sole discretion, to reclaim, suspend, terminate and/or transfer any such web page or URL.

6. User Content

The Services may enable you to upload, post and transmit photos and videos to the Site or other portions of the Services (including to your user photo galleries or groups through the Services) and also provide you with access to discussion forums, blogs and other interactive areas in which you or other users may post or transmit photos, videos, text, music, messages, information, comments, labels, tags, descriptions, categorizations or other content or materials (collectively, the “User Content”).

You retain all intellectual property rights in and to any User Content you post, upload or otherwise make available through the Services, including the copyright in and to your photos and videos. SnapShark.app does not claim any ownership, right, title or interest in and to your User Content.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, by uploading and/or posting any User Content to the Services, you request, and grant SnapShark.app a perpetual, nonexclusive and royalty-free right to use the User Content (and the user name that is submitted in connection with such User Content) as is reasonably necessary in order to do the following: (1) provide the Services, including to display the User Content on the Services; (2) comply with your instructions pursuant to SnapShark.app’s Data Protection Addendum; (3) comply with legal requirements, including disclosing User Content in response to legal process from governmental authorities; (4) disclose User Content without any compulsory legal process when SnapShark.app believes there is a threat to life or limb. In the absence of a legal requirement to do so, SnapShark.app may refrain from notifying you of SnapShark.app’s disclosures to governmental authorities where such notification may jeopardize an important law enforcement investigation. SnapShark.app may engage service providers for assistance with carrying out any obligation or exercising any right under these Terms of Use.

You represent and warrant that (i) you own or otherwise control all of the rights to the User Content that you post or transmit, or you otherwise have the right to post, use, display, distribute and reproduce such User Content and to grant the rights granted herein; (ii) the User Content you supply is accurate and not misleading; and (iii) the use and posting of the User Content you supply does not violate these Terms of Use and will not violate any rights of or cause injury to any person or entity.

From time to time, SnapShark.app may limit the amount of User Content, including your photographs, stored via the Site. SnapShark.app has the right, at any time, to remove your User Content stored on the Site in excess of such limits. Further, if SnapShark.app were to terminate an account on the Site for any reason, all User Content associated with such account would be removed. While SnapShark.app will use reasonable efforts to notify you of such removal, whether by notice in the account or by email to the email you have specified in your account, it is your responsibility to download any User Content which you wish to save and make backup copies of all User Content to prevent the loss thereof.

7. Acceptable Use; Disclaimer

You are solely responsible for the User Content that you post or transmit using the Services and you agree not to post, transmit or otherwise publish through the Services any of the following:

  • User Content that is unlawful, defamatory, hateful, harassing, threatening, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, abusive, inflammatory, fraudulent or otherwise objectionable or harmful;
  • User Content that is obscene, pornographic, indecent, lewd, sexually suggestive, including without limitation photos, videos or other User Content containing nudity, unless you have restricted access to such User Content with an appropriate content filter setting that will restrict viewing by minors;
  • User Content that would constitute, encourage or provide instructions for a criminal offense, violate the rights of any party, endanger national security, or that would otherwise create liability or violate any local, state, national or international law;
  • User Content that may infringe or violate any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright or other intellectual or other proprietary right of any party; User Content that impersonates any person or entity or otherwise misrepresents your affiliation with a person or entity;

  • User Content that is objectionable, harmful or which restricts or inhibits any other person from using or enjoying the Services, or which may expose SnapShark.app or its users to any harm or liability of any nature, or which is legally required to be deleted or made private.

Although we prohibit certain activities in these Terms of Use, SnapShark.app does not make any representation or warranty that the User Content you may encounter through your use of the Services complies with these acceptable use provisions or the Terms of Use. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. These Terms of Use do not create any private right of action on the part of any third party or any reasonable expectation that the Services will not contain any content that is prohibited by these acceptable use provisions. SnapShark.app reserves the right (but is not obligated) to (i) review or screen any User Content submitted to the Site or otherwise submitted through the Services; (ii) edit any User Content submitted through the Services (but for photos and videos this will consist of mere editing to address the technical characteristics of the Service or of SnapShark.app Vendors, not artistic authorship); and/or (iii) remove or take down any User Content from the Services for any reason, at any time, without prior notice, at our sole discretion. SnapShark.app will have no liability or responsibility to users of the Services or any other person or entity for performance or nonperformance of such activities. SnapShark.app’s enforcement of the acceptable use provisions set forth in these Terms of Use with respect to User Content in some instances does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce such provisions in other instances involving similar User Content.

By registering for an account, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and that all information you provide in the registration form (“Registration Data”) is complete and accurate.

You understand and acknowledge that any User Content contained in public areas of the Services, including any user galleries or other portions of the Services, is accessible to the public and could be accessed, downloaded, indexed, archived, linked to and republished by others including, without limitation, appearing on other websites and in search engine results. SnapShark.app provides privacy options and settings for your content available in the Privacy & Permissions section of your applicable user account (the “Account Settings”).

We use commercially reasonable security measures to protect your User Content consistent with your Account Settings.

When you leave the Services, you should be aware that these Terms of Use and all other SnapShark.app policies no longer govern your use of such websites and services or any content contained thereon.

SnapShark.app does not indicate affiliation, approval, or control of any Third Party Services by making such Third Party Services available via the Services.

  • Applicable Law

    • Your use of the Services is subject to all applicable local, state, national and international laws and regulations.

  • Agreement to Arbitrate & Waiver of Representative Actions

    • PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH SNAPSHARK.APPAND IT LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF. IF YOU DO NOT CONSENT TO THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION 15, YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO USE THE SERVICES.

    You and SnapShark.app agree to arbitrate any dispute arising from these Terms of Use or relating to the Services, Site or SnapShark.app Materials. ARBITRATION PREVENTS YOU FROM SUING IN COURT OR FROM HAVING A JURY TRIAL. You and SnapShark.app agree: (i) to notify each other of any dispute within thirty (30) days of when it arises; (ii) to attempt informal resolution prior to any demand for arbitration; (iii) that any arbitration will occur in Santa Clara County, California; and (iv) that arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (as applicable). The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org. Other than class procedures and remedies described in these Terms of Use, the arbitrator has the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and SnapShark.app are NOT required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks equitable or other relief for (1) the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents or (2) allegedly criminal conduct under laws of the United States or any state thereof including, but not limited to, criminal laws addressing pornography, exploitation, obscenity, or hate speech.

    The arbitrator will not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different SnapShark.app or SnapShark.app users but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same SnapShark.app or SnapShark.app user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator’s award will be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. YOU AND SNAPSHARK.APPAGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS PART OF ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND SNAPSHARK.APPAGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER SNAPSHARK.APPOR SNAPSHARK.APPUSERS.

    Unless you and SnapShark.app agree otherwise, in the event that a court decides that any part of this Section 15 is invalid or unenforceable, you agree that any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and SnapShark.app must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in Santa Clara County, California. The remainder of the Terms of Use will continue to apply. You and SnapShark.app agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Santa Clara County, California for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.

Feedback

We welcome feedback from our users regarding ideas and suggestions for improvements to the Site, Services and Products. SnapShark.app will be entitled to use any such feedback without restriction, even if you designate such feedback as confidential. You hereby grant SnapShark.app a royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable, perpetual, irrevocable license in and to any feedback to use in any matter related to the operation of our business.

These Terms of Use are binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns.

SnapShark.app will be permitted to assign its rights under these Terms of Use at its sole discretion.

If you access the Services from a country other than the United States, you agree that your transactions with SnapShark.app occur in the United States. You are responsible for compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations applicable to your use of the Services.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of these Terms of Use will remain in full force and effect, and, if legally permitted, such offending provision will be replaced with an enforceable provision that as nearly as possible effects the parties’ intent.
