These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of Yideos. They include disclaimers of warranty, a limitation of our liability, an indemnity from you, and provisions governing how disputes are resolved. Please read them; by using the service you agree to be bound by them.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a binding agreement between you and the operator of Yideos ("Yideos", "we", "us"). By accessing the site, creating an account, or using any part of the service, you accept these Terms in full. If you do not accept them, you must not use the service.
We may amend these Terms at any time. Amendments take effect when published on this page, and the "last updated" date above will change. Your continued use of the service after publication constitutes acceptance of the amended Terms. Where an amendment is material, we will additionally give notice on the site.
You must be at least 13 years of age to create an account. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may use the service only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian, who accepts these Terms on your behalf and is responsible for your use of the service.
By using the service you represent that you are not barred from doing so under any applicable law, and that you are not located in a jurisdiction subject to a trade embargo that would make your use unlawful.
Yideos is a curated index of video content. Videos are hosted, transmitted and controlled by third-party platforms and are presented on this site by embedded player. We do not host, encode, store or transmit the video content itself, and we do not own it.
Curation means that a channel has been reviewed for general suitability before inclusion. It does not constitute endorsement, certification, verification or approval of any individual video, statement, opinion or claim contained in it. Editorial judgement is exercised in good faith and is inherently subjective.
Nothing on this service constitutes religious, legal, financial, medical or professional advice of any kind. You must not rely on any content on this service as a substitute for advice from a qualified professional.
The service depends on and interoperates with third-party platforms. Your use of embedded players is additionally subject to the terms and privacy policies of the platform providing them, and we are not a party to that relationship.
We exercise no control over third-party content and accept no responsibility or liability for it, including its accuracy, legality, completeness, availability or fitness for any purpose. Third-party content may be altered, restricted or withdrawn by its owner at any time without notice to us.
Links and embeds are provided for convenience. Their presence does not imply any association with, sponsorship by, or endorsement of the linked party.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity occurring under your account. You must notify us promptly of any unauthorised use. We are not liable for loss arising from your failure to safeguard your credentials.
You must provide accurate registration information and keep it current. You may not create an account on behalf of another person without authority, impersonate any person, or maintain more than one account for the purpose of evading a suspension.
You must not, and must not permit any other person to:
The service permits you to submit comments, reports, channel requests and messages ("Submissions"). You retain ownership of your Submissions.
By making a Submission you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable and perpetual licence to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, publish, display and distribute it in connection with operating and promoting the service. You waive any moral rights in the Submission to the extent permitted by law.
You warrant that each Submission is your own or that you have all necessary rights to grant this licence, and that it does not infringe the rights of any person or breach any law.
We are under no obligation to monitor Submissions, but may remove, edit or refuse any Submission at our sole discretion, with or without notice and without liability. We do not adopt, endorse or accept responsibility for the accuracy of any Submission.
The service, including its design, interface, software, text, graphics, arrangement, selection and compilation of content, and all trade marks and branding appearing on it, is owned by us or licensed to us and is protected by intellectual property law. Except as expressly stated in these Terms, no right or licence is granted to you.
You are granted a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and use the service for personal, non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms.
We respect intellectual property rights and will respond to properly made notices of alleged infringement. If you believe material accessible on this service infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our designated agent through the contact page containing: a physical or electronic signature; identification of the work claimed to be infringed; identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to locate it; your contact details; a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent or the law; and a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are authorised to act on the owner’s behalf.
Because video content is hosted by third-party platforms rather than by us, the fastest remedy is usually a notice to the hosting platform, which controls the material itself. We will remove an entry from our index on receipt of a valid notice.
We may terminate the accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.
NOTE FOR THE OPERATOR — to rely on the safe harbour in 17 U.S.C. § 512, a designated agent must be registered with the U.S. Copyright Office and named here with a postal address. This clause is not effective until that is done.
The service is provided on an "as available" basis. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or free from error, and we may suspend, withdraw, restrict or amend all or any part of it at any time without notice and without liability.
We may impose limits on features or restrict access to parts of the service without notice or liability. Content may be added, changed or removed at any time. Access may also be affected by matters outside our control, including network filtering applied by your own internet provider or institution.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE.
WE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, THAT ACCESS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE SERVICE IS FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM US CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED HERE. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (US$100).
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Yideos, its operator, and their respective officers, employees, agents and licensors from and against all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in connection with your use of the service, your Submissions, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or of the rights of any third party.
We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with us.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the service, or delete your account and any associated content, at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice, and without liability to you.
You may stop using the service at any time and may request deletion of your account through the contact page.
Sections which by their nature should survive termination — including sections 7, 8, and 11 to 18 — survive termination of this agreement.
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them or the service are governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules.
You and we submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of New York for the resolution of any dispute not subject to the section below, and waive any objection to venue in those courts.
NOTE FOR THE OPERATOR — this must name the jurisdiction you actually operate from, and be checked by a lawyer. Consumers in the EU and UK generally retain the right to bring proceedings in their own country regardless of this clause.
Before commencing any proceeding, you agree to attempt to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us and allowing thirty (30) days for resolution.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY DISPUTE SHALL BE BROUGHT IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. This waiver does not apply where it is unenforceable under the law applicable to you.
Any claim must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action arises, or be permanently barred, except where a longer period is required by law.
Our handling of personal information is described in the privacy policy, which forms part of these Terms and is written to be read and understood rather than merely accepted.
Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it or of any other provision.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign them freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
Entire agreement. These Terms, with the privacy policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the service and supersede all prior understandings.
Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms confer no rights on any person other than you and us.
Notices and questions concerning these Terms may be sent through the contact page.
