Terms of Service

Last updated: July 11, 2026

These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of Sayspoke.

By creating an account or using Sayspoke, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

Sayspoke is currently in open beta. The product may change, experience downtime, lose features, or behave unexpectedly. Use the beta with that understanding.

1. What Sayspoke is

Sayspoke is built around personal Moments, public Finds, Communities, and Backing Tags.

Users may be able to:

Create a normal personal Sayspoke profile
Send and approve mutual Add requests
Share personal Moments with mutual Adds
Create and manage a separate Finds creator profile
Publish public Finds
Follow Finds creator profiles through one-way creator subscriptions
Join and participate in Communities
Upload photos or videos
Back visible content with Backing Tags
Leave Notes or replies where the relevant access rules allow it
Save content
Send private messages
Report content or users
Use privacy, account, safety, moderation, and trust controls

Sayspoke may add, remove, limit, or change features over time.

2. Product relationships and content surfaces

Sayspoke has separate personal, creator, and Community systems.

Normal profiles and Adds

A normal Sayspoke profile represents a person’s personal identity.

An Add is an approved, mutual connection between two normal profiles.

Sending an Add request does not create a connection. When the recipient approves the request, both profiles become connected.

Users may disable incoming Add requests. An Add may be removed or overridden by blocking.

Moments

Outside Communities, Moments are personal posts visible only to the person who posted them and their current mutual Adds.

Personal Moments are not publicly discoverable and do not participate in public Find recommendations or advertising.

A recipient may still copy, photograph, record, or redistribute content they can view. Do not share a Moment unless you trust the people who can access it.

Finds creator profiles and follows

A Finds creator profile is a separate public publishing identity.

Following a Finds creator profile is a one-way subscription to that creator’s public Finds.

Following a creator does not:

Create a personal Add
Reveal the creator’s personal Moments
Provide access to the creator’s Add relationships
Automatically connect the users’ normal profiles

Adding someone through a normal profile does not automatically follow their Finds creator profile.

Finds

Global Finds are public creator posts intended for public feeds, discovery, recommendations, search-like surfaces, creator profiles, Backing Tag collections, sharing, advertising, and eligible creator monetization.

Communities

Communities are the only Sayspoke surface where Moments and Finds may appear together for people who are not mutual Adds.

Community content is governed by the Community’s:

Visibility
Membership rules
Posting permissions
Approval requirements
Moderation rules

A Community Moment does not become a globally discoverable Moment.

A Find posted specifically to a Community does not automatically become a global Find unless Sayspoke provides and the creator uses a separate global-publication action.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account or use Sayspoke.

If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use Sayspoke only if:

Your parent or legal guardian permits it where required
You are allowed to use Sayspoke under applicable law
You satisfy any higher minimum age that applies where you live

Some countries, states, provinces, or regions may require a higher minimum age, parental or guardian consent, age verification, age assurance, or other protections.

You may not use Sayspoke if:

You are under 16
You do not meet the minimum age required where you live
You are required to have parent or guardian permission and do not have it
You provide false age, date-of-birth, location, or eligibility information
You are legally prohibited from using the service
We previously banned your account and have not authorized your return
You are using Sayspoke to violate law, harm others, or evade enforcement

We may suspend, restrict, or remove an account if we reasonably believe the user does not meet Sayspoke’s eligibility requirements.

4. Open-beta access

Sayspoke is currently in open beta. Eligible users may create an account without an invite code.

Open-beta access does not guarantee:

Permanent access
Continued availability of any feature
Compensation
Future public-launch access
Creator or monetization eligibility
Verification
Any special status or rights

We may pause or limit signups, change beta eligibility, restrict features, or remove access when reasonably necessary for safety, security, legal, operational, or product reasons.

5. Your account

You are responsible for your account and activity conducted through it.

You agree to:

Provide accurate account information
Provide accurate age and eligibility information
Keep your login credentials secure
Not share your password
Notify us if you believe your account has been compromised
Not impersonate another person or organization
Not create accounts to evade blocks, bans, rate limits, age rules, or enforcement
Not allow another person to use your account in a way that violates these Terms

We may suspend, restrict, or remove accounts that violate these Terms or create risk for Sayspoke or other users.

6. Privacy, visibility, and recipient conduct

You are responsible for understanding the applicable visibility and relationship rules before submitting or interacting with content.

Sayspoke has distinct personal, public creator, and Community surfaces:

Normal profile information is visible according to the profile owner’s settings and applicable relationship rules.
Personal Moments are visible only to mutual Adds outside Communities.
Global Finds are public creator posts.
Communities may contain Moments and Finds under their own access rules.
Backing Tags, Notes, replies, saves, Add relationships, creator follows, and engagement information are visible only where the relevant feature permits.

Do not submit or interact with content unless you are comfortable with the applicable audience.

If Sayspoke gives you access to another person’s nonpublic content, you agree not to misuse that access. You may not use personal Moments, private messages, private Community content, or restricted profile information to:

Harass, threaten, or exploit another person
Dox or expose private information
Circumvent privacy settings
Build unauthorized databases
Train recognition, surveillance, or profiling systems
Redistribute content in violation of law or another person’s rights

Privacy controls cannot prevent an authorized recipient from making a screenshot or copy.

7. User content and license

You retain ownership of content you submit to Sayspoke.

You represent that you have the rights and permissions needed to submit the content and grant the license described below.

By submitting content, you grant Sayspoke a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to:

Host and store the content
Copy and process the content
Format, resize, compress, transcode, and create previews
Display and distribute the content to its intended Sayspoke audience
Operate the relevant feature
Moderate content
Investigate reports and appeals
Prevent fraud and abuse
Maintain backups
Improve Sayspoke’s content organization, safety, and recommendation systems

This license is limited by the applicable product surface:

Personal Moments

For personal Moments, the license permits Sayspoke to provide the Moment to the author and eligible mutual Adds and to operate related safety, storage, processing, and interaction features.

Sayspoke does not receive permission to use personal Moments in public advertising, public marketing, logged-out demonstrations, or public Find discovery merely because the Moment was uploaded to Sayspoke.

Global Finds

For global Finds, the license permits Sayspoke to display and distribute the Find publicly through Sayspoke, including through:

Public feeds
Discovery and recommendations
Creator profiles
Search-like surfaces
Sharing previews
Backing Tag collections
Sponsored and monetized Find surfaces

Sayspoke may use public Finds to explain, market, or demonstrate Sayspoke, subject to applicable law and any controls we provide.

Community content

For Community content, the license permits Sayspoke to display and distribute the content according to that Community’s applicable access rules.

Community placement alone does not authorize Sayspoke to distribute a Community Moment as a globally discoverable Moment.

The license continues for as long as reasonably necessary to operate Sayspoke and may continue after deletion where content remains in backups, safety records, reports, legal records, or copies made by other users.

8. Content rules

You may not use Sayspoke to post, upload, share, back, promote, request, or encourage:

Illegal activity
Harassment, bullying, stalking, or targeted abuse
Credible threats or incitement of violence
Sexual exploitation or abuse
Sexual or exploitative content involving minors
Hate, dehumanization, or violent extremist activity
Impersonation or deceptive identity use
Spam, scams, fraud, phishing, or manipulation
Malware or attempts to compromise the service
Doxxing or sharing private information without permission
Nonconsensual intimate content
Content that violates intellectual-property, publicity, privacy, or other rights
Graphic violence or gore where prohibited by Sayspoke rules
Attempts to manipulate Backing Tags, rankings, discovery, saves, views, watch activity, advertisements, or creator revenue
Content or conduct intended to evade moderation or enforcement

We may remove content, limit distribution, restrict features, suspend accounts, preserve evidence, or take other action when we reasonably believe content or activity violates these Terms or creates risk.

9. Backing Tags, Notes, replies, and engagement

Backing Tags are intended to communicate genuine support, context, recommendation, trust, or appreciation.

You agree not to:

Use Backing Tags to harass, shame, threaten, or manipulate others
Coordinate fake or deceptive Backings
Buy, sell, or exchange Backings
Use automation to generate Backings, views, watch time, saves, follows, Notes, replies, or other engagement
Misrepresent your relationship with a person, creator, business, product, place, or Find
Use Notes or replies to spam, abuse, deceive, or evade moderation
Manipulate engagement to obtain advertising or monetization benefits

Sayspoke may rank, limit, remove, hide, invalidate, or review engagement to protect users and the integrity of the service.

10. Finds and creator content

Finds are public creator posts that may include recommendations, videos, places, products, resources, commentary, or other useful content.

If you publish Finds or manage a Finds creator profile, you are responsible for:

Having the necessary rights to content you upload
Accurately describing what you share
Respecting privacy, intellectual-property, publicity, and consumer rights
Not misleading users about sponsorships, affiliations, endorsements, prices, availability, or compensation
Following applicable advertising, endorsement, disclosure, and consumer-protection rules
Complying with Community rules when publishing a Community Find
Maintaining accurate creator-profile information

If you receive compensation, free products, affiliate value, discounts, or another benefit connected to a Find, you are responsible for making any legally required disclosure clearly and prominently.

Sayspoke may label content or require additional disclosures where appropriate.

11. Advertising and creator monetization

Sayspoke may display sponsored placements or promotional content on eligible public Find surfaces.

Moments never display advertising.

Sponsored placement does not mean Sayspoke endorses an advertiser, product, service, creator, or claim.

Sayspoke may offer eligible Finds creators a monetization program. Participation may be subject to:

Separate program terms
Eligibility requirements
Identity verification
Payment thresholds
Tax documentation
Geographic restrictions
Content and advertiser-safety requirements
Fraud and invalid-traffic review
Account standing
Payment-provider requirements

Participation does not guarantee advertisements, revenue, minimum earnings, or continued eligibility.

Sayspoke may withhold, adjust, reverse, or refuse monetization credit associated with:

Invalid traffic
Manipulated engagement
Automated activity
Fraud
Policy violations
Chargebacks
Measurement errors
Content later found ineligible

Creators are responsible for taxes associated with money or benefits they receive.

12. Private messages

Sayspoke private messages are designed to use client-side encryption for message text.

The service may still store:

Encrypted message content
Participant records
Message metadata
Read and delivery status
Presence signals
Conversation state
Key information needed to operate the feature

Do not use private messages for highly sensitive, emergency, financial, medical, legal, or confidential information.

You may not use private messages for spam, threats, harassment, fraud, scams, illegal activity, or evading moderation.

13. Communities

Communities may have their own:

Membership requirements
Visibility rules
Posting permissions
Administrator and moderator roles
Approval requirements
Content standards

Community owners and moderators must exercise their permissions responsibly and may not use administrative access to harass users, expose restricted information, manipulate engagement, or evade Sayspoke rules.

Sayspoke may remove Community content, restrict a Community, remove moderators, or close a Community when reasonably necessary to enforce these Terms or protect users.

Membership in a public Community does not necessarily make every post globally discoverable.

14. Reports, moderation, and safety

Sayspoke may provide reporting, blocking, appeal, and safety tools.

We may review reports and take actions including:

Removing content
Limiting visibility
Restricting features
Suspending or deleting accounts
Restricting Communities
Invalidating engagement or monetization
Preserving relevant records
Contacting affected users
Reporting activity to authorities where legally required or reasonably appropriate

Moderation requires judgment. We are not obligated to explain every internal signal, investigation method, or enforcement decision.

15. Account deletion and content removal

You may request account deletion through available tools or by contacting us.

Deleting your account or content may not immediately remove all associated information from:

Backups
Logs
Security records
Moderation records
Reports and appeals
Financial and tax records
Other users’ screenshots or copies
Content already distributed publicly
Records we must retain for legal, security, or operational reasons

Deleting an account does not require Sayspoke to delete content submitted independently by another person.

16. Feedback

If you voluntarily send Sayspoke feedback, ideas, bug reports, suggestions, screenshots, or comments, you allow us to use them without compensation or restriction.

This includes using feedback to:

Improve the product
Fix bugs
Change features
Build new tools
Understand user needs

Do not include confidential information in feedback unless Sayspoke has agreed in writing to receive it confidentially.

17. Third-party services and links

Sayspoke may use third-party services for:

Hosting
Databases and storage
Authentication
Email
Analytics
Maps
Media processing
Security
Payments
Other operations

Those providers may process information as described in the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

Sayspoke may also contain links to third-party websites, products, or services. Sayspoke does not control and is not responsible for third-party content, availability, security, policies, or practices.

18. Intellectual property

Sayspoke’s software, branding, logos, interface, original documentation, visual design, compilations, and other protectable elements are owned by Sayspoke or its licensors.

Except as permitted by law or these Terms, you may not:

Copy or reproduce Sayspoke software
Sell or sublicense Sayspoke
Circumvent access controls
Misuse Sayspoke trademarks or branding
Create deceptive copies of the service
Exploit Sayspoke’s nonpublic systems or materials

Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of your user content to Sayspoke.

19. Prohibited technical activity

You may not:

Access Sayspoke through unauthorized bots, scrapers, crawlers, or automation
Interfere with the service or another user’s access
Probe, scan, or test vulnerabilities without authorization
Attempt to bypass security, privacy, age, rate-limit, advertising, or access controls
Reverse engineer nonpublic APIs or systems except where applicable law expressly permits it
Upload malicious code

Use Sayspoke data to build surveillance, facial-recognition, or identity-profiling systems
Use nonpublic Sayspoke content or data to train competing systems without authorization
Attempt to obtain service-role, administrative, encryption-key, or other privileged access

Good-faith security research must be authorized through a Sayspoke security-reporting process or written permission.

20. No professional advice

Sayspoke content may include recommendations, opinions, places, products, videos, resources, and other user-generated material.

Sayspoke does not provide legal, medical, financial, safety, professional, or emergency advice.

Do not rely on Sayspoke as a substitute for:

Professional judgment
Product-safety instructions
Emergency services
Legal or medical advice
Independent verification

21. Open-beta disclaimer

Sayspoke is provided in open beta and may contain:

Bugs
Downtime
Data issues
Incomplete features
Inaccurate recommendations
Broken uploads
Delayed or missing notifications
Processing failures
Measurement errors
Other unexpected behavior

Sayspoke may be limited by age eligibility, region, device, feature availability, signup volume, or test groups.

We may change, pause, reset, remove, or discontinue features.

You use Sayspoke at your own risk.

22. Disclaimers

Sayspoke is provided “as is” and “as available.”

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties of:

Merchantability
Fitness for a particular purpose
Noninfringement
Availability
Accuracy
Reliability
Security
Uninterrupted operation

We do not guarantee that:

Sayspoke will always be available
Content will always remain available
Discovery or recommendations will be accurate
Uploaded media will always process correctly
Every harmful user or item of content will be identified
Users will behave honestly
Backings or creator metrics will be accurate or fair
Monetization will be available or profitable
Bugs or security incidents will never occur

Privacy and access controls limit who Sayspoke permits to access content, but no technical system can prevent an authorized recipient from making or distributing a copy.

23. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sayspoke and its owners, operators, affiliates, service providers, and representatives will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, goodwill, creator earnings, or service access.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sayspoke’s total liability for claims arising out of or relating to the service will be limited to the greater of:

The amount you paid directly to Sayspoke during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim
$100

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so some provisions may not apply to you.

24. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Sayspoke and its owners, operators, affiliates, service providers, and representatives from claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses arising from:

Your use of Sayspoke
Your content
Your Finds creator activity
Your Community administration
Your advertising or sponsorship disclosures
Your violation of these Terms
Your violation of law
Your violation of another person’s rights
Your misuse of Backing Tags, Finds, Moments, Notes, messages, or other features

25. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms as Sayspoke changes.

The updated Terms will be posted with a revised “Last updated” date. We may provide additional notice inside Sayspoke or by email when changes are material.

Updated Terms apply prospectively from their effective date unless otherwise stated.

If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using Sayspoke and may request account deletion.

Your continued use of Sayspoke after updated Terms take effect constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.

26. Suspension and termination

You may stop using Sayspoke at any time.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access if we reasonably believe that you:

Violated these Terms
Created safety, security, legal, or financial risk
Harmed another person
Manipulated advertising or monetization
Evaded prior enforcement
Used Sayspoke in a way that could damage the service

Where appropriate, we may provide notice or an opportunity to appeal. We may act without advance notice where immediate action is reasonably necessary.

Provisions that by their nature should survive termination remain in effect, including provisions concerning licenses, retained records, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, and disputes.

27. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Hampshire, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

Nothing in these Terms prevents a user from receiving protections that cannot lawfully be waived under the laws that apply to them.

28. Severability and waiver

If a provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

A failure by Sayspoke to enforce a provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.

29. Entire agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and any additional terms that apply to a specific feature or program, form the agreement between you and Sayspoke concerning the service.

If additional terms conflict with these Terms, the additional terms control only for the feature or program they govern.
