Terms of use
These terms are the agreement between you and Ikeniile Nexus Ltd ("we") for using Nonyere. By creating an account you agree to them, to the community guidelines, and to how we handle data as described in the privacy policy.
Who can use Nonyere
- You must be 16 or older.
- You may use a pseudonym, but you mustn't pretend to be a specific other person or organisation.
- You may have one personal account. Don't create accounts to get around a block, a suspension or our limits.
- Nonyere is in beta. Some features may change, and we may limit who can join.
Your account
- You sign in with a code sent to your email. Keep access to that email secure: anyone who can read it can sign in as you.
- You can see and end your sessions in Settings › Account › Sessions & devices.
- You are responsible for what happens on your account. Tell us at [email protected] if you think someone else has used it.
Your content
- It stays yours. You own what you post. You give us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, process and show it to the audience you chose, only to run Nonyere. The licence ends when the content is deleted, except where we must keep a copy for safety or legal reasons (see the privacy policy).
- Photos and clips are taken in the app. Nonyere doesn't import from your photo library. Don't use the camera to pass off other material as a moment you captured; see misleading about how it was made.
- Posts aren't edited. Once shared, a post or comment can't be changed. You can add a correction or context, which appears beside it with its date.
- Withdrawing. Within 15 minutes of sharing, you can withdraw a post or comment, which hides it from everyone else. After that, it stays unless it is removed for safety, privacy or legal reasons, or you delete your account.
- Labels describe, they don't vouch. A capture label says what our systems checked about how something was made. It doesn't say that what it shows is true, and nor do we.
- Others' rights. Only share what you have the right to share, and only images of other people they would be comfortable with.
What you mustn't do
Besides anything the community guidelines rule out, don't:
- break the law, or use Nonyere to harm others;
- collect other people's data from Nonyere, with automated tools or otherwise;
- use bots or automated accounts, or interfere with how Nonyere works;
- try to get round our security, our limits or another person's privacy settings;
- copy content out of an Enclave to expose its members.
If you find a security problem, report it to [email protected] instead of testing it on other people's accounts.
Reports and moderation
Anyone can report content or an account. Our staff review reports and may warn, hide, limit or remove content, or suspend an account, as described in the guidelines. When we act on your content or account, we tell you what we did and why, and you can appeal. A different person reviews the appeal.
We may also act without a report when the law requires it, or to protect people from serious harm.
Enclaves
- An Enclave's owner and admins decide who joins and can remove members. They must follow these terms and the guidelines, and so must every member.
- Enclaves are private to their members, but they are not end-to-end encrypted. Our safety staff can review their content when it's reported or the law requires it.
- Before you delete your account, hand over any Enclave or channel that still has other people in it.
Broadcast channels
- A Broadcast channel publishes one-way updates to people who subscribe. Anyone may apply; our staff review every application before a channel can publish.
- If a channel shows a verified label, the label says exactly what we checked. It isn't an endorsement of what the channel publishes.
- We may suspend a channel that breaks these terms or the guidelines.
Paid plans
Nonyere is free to use. Free Enclaves can have up to 150 members. We plan to offer paid plans for the people who run larger spaces ("Enclave Plus" and "Channel Pro"), but they aren't available yet and we don't take payments. Paid plans will never buy reach, ranking or verification. Separate terms will apply when they launch.
Ending your account
- You can delete your account at any time in Settings › Session › Delete account. Here is what is removed and what we keep.
- We may suspend or close an account that seriously or repeatedly breaks these terms or the guidelines, with a notice and a right to appeal, except where the law or someone's safety prevents us from telling you.
- If we ever close Nonyere, we'll give you notice in the app and time to download your data.
The service
- We work to keep Nonyere available and secure, but during the beta it may sometimes be unavailable, and features may change.
- Nothing in these terms limits rights you have as a consumer under the law where you live.
- To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for content other people post, or for losses we couldn't reasonably have foreseen. We don't exclude liability where the law doesn't allow it, such as for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud.
Changes to these terms
If we change these terms in a way that matters, we'll tell you in the app before the change takes effect. If you don't agree, you can delete your account before then.
Law and disputes
These terms are governed by the law of Ireland. If you live in the EU, you also keep the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of your country, and you can bring a claim in your local courts.
Questions or complaints: [email protected]. We'll try to sort things out with you first.
