1. Eligibility
You must be 18 years or older to use twine. By using twine you confirm that you are at least 18.
2. What twine is
twine is a private shared space for two people: date planning, a places wishlist, photo memories, a shared watchlist, and related features. Most content you add is end-to-end encrypted; only you and your paired partner can read it.
We cannot read, recover, or restore your encrypted content. If you lose access to all your devices and exhaust all recovery options (platform restore, PIN backup, and partner re-key), your content is permanently unrecoverable. There is no backdoor.
3. Your account and pairing
You are responsible for activity under your account and for the security of your sign-in credentials and recovery PIN. Pairing links your account with one other person; both of you can see content added to the shared space. You may unpair (leave the couple) at any time from the app.
4. Acceptable use and content
You are solely responsible for the content you add. You must not use twine to store, share, or transmit content that is illegal, abusive, harassing, hateful, sexually exploitative of minors, or otherwise objectionable, or to infringe others' rights. We operate a zero-tolerance policy for objectionable content and abusive behaviour.
Because content is end-to-end encrypted, we cannot proactively monitor it. However:
- You can block the other person by unpairing at any time.
- You can report a concern from within the app or by emailing nikkyamresh8@gmail.com. We will respond to credible reports and may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
5. Third-party services and attributions
twine relies on third-party services including Firebase (Google), Cloudflare, TMDB, and Mapbox. Your use of features powered by them is also subject to their terms.
- TMDB: This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB.
- Maps: Map data and telemetry, where maps are enabled, are provided by Mapbox and OpenStreetMap contributors.
6. Privacy
Our handling of your data is described in the Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms.
7. Termination
You may stop using twine and delete your account at any time (Profile → Delete account, or the web deletion page). We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or where required by law.
8. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
twine is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind to the maximum extent permitted by law. We do not warrant that twine will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that data will never be lost. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the developer's total liability arising out of or relating to twine is limited to the amount you paid for twine in the 12 months before the claim (which, for a free app, is zero). Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
9. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts at Bangalore, Karnataka have jurisdiction, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence.
10. Apple and Google
If you obtained twine through the Apple App Store or Google Play, additional store terms (including Apple's standard EULA) apply. Apple and Google are not responsible for twine or for support; the developer is.
