Anipops Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern the access to and use of Anipops, a service provided by Anipops Inc. (the "Company") through its website and mobile applications (the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, any individual or entity using the Service (each, a "User") acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.

Article 1. Scope of Application

These Terms govern all rights and obligations arising between the Company and Users in connection with access to and use of the Service.
The Company's Privacy Policy, guidelines, help materials, and any other policies, rules, or terms published on or through the Service from time to time (collectively, the "Individual Terms") are incorporated into and form an integral part of these Terms.
In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between these Terms and any Individual Terms or other documentation relating to the Service, the applicable Individual Terms shall prevail to the extent of such conflict.

Article 2. User Registration and Account Management

A "Registered User" means a User who has completed the registration process prescribed by the Company and is entitled to access not only the free content available through the Service but also paid services, including the purchase and use of virtual coins and VIP memberships (collectively, the "Premium Content").
The Service is available only to natural persons who are at least thirteen (13) years of age. Registration and use of the Service by individuals under the age of thirteen (13), legal entities, or any person using the Service for commercial or business purposes are strictly prohibited.
A Registered User must provide true, accurate, complete, and up-to-date information during the registration process and shall promptly update such information whenever necessary to ensure its continued accuracy.
Users under the age of eighteen (18) must obtain the prior consent of a parent or other legal guardian before registering for the Service. Such consent must include approval of these Terms, any applicable Supplemental Terms, and the purchase and use of any Premium Content.
Each Registered User is solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of their account credentials, including their username and password. The Company may treat any access to or use of the Service through an account authenticated with the correct login credentials as having been made by the Registered User to whom the account is registered.
If a minor registers for or uses the Service by falsely representing that they have reached the age of majority, falsely claiming to have obtained the consent of a parent or legal guardian, or otherwise employing fraudulent means to induce the Company to believe that they have legal capacity to act independently, such User shall not be entitled to rescind, cancel, or otherwise invalidate any legal act relating to the use of the Service or the purchase or use of any Premium Content.

Article 3. Purchase and Use of Coins

Registered Users may purchase virtual currency ("Coins") for use within the Service through payment methods designated by the Company, including, without limitation, credit cards, carrier billing, and in-app purchases.
The purchase price of Coins, available purchase denominations, and any other applicable purchase terms shall be determined by the Company and displayed within the Service.
The Company may, at its sole discretion, grant Registered Users complimentary Coins ("Bonus Coins") through login rewards, advertisement viewing, promotional campaigns, or any other methods designated by the Company.
Coins purchased for monetary consideration ("Purchased Coins") shall not expire. Except where required by applicable law, Purchased Coins are non-refundable and may not be redeemed for cash, exchanged, or otherwise refunded. The validity period of Bonus Coins, if any, shall be determined separately by the Company and may vary depending on the applicable promotion or program.
When a Registered User uses Coins within the Service, Bonus Coins that are subject to an expiration date shall be deducted before any Purchased Coins. Purchased Coins will be deducted only after all applicable Bonus Coins have been exhausted.
Coins, whether Purchased Coins or Bonus Coins, are personal to the Registered User and may not be transferred, assigned, sold, pledged, lent, or otherwise disposed of to any other User or third party, nor may they be redeemed or exchanged for cash, reward points, or any other currency or value outside the Service.
Except where required by applicable law, the Company will not issue separate receipts, invoices, or similar documents for payments made in connection with the purchase of Premium Content, VIP memberships, or any other transactions conducted through the Service. Proof of payment may instead be evidenced by the payment confirmation provided by the applicable third-party payment processor (such as Stripe), the transaction history available within the Service, or the billing statement issued by the User's payment provider or financial institution.

Article 4. Intellectual Property Rights and License

All intellectual property rights in and to the Service, excluding User Content, are owned by or licensed to the Company.
Copyright and all other intellectual property rights in any content created and submitted by a User ("User Content") shall remain vested in the User who created such content or the applicable rights holder. Nothing in these Terms shall be construed as transferring ownership of any intellectual property rights in User Content to the Company.
By submitting User Content through the Service, the User grants the Company a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, distribute, publish, publicly display, publicly perform, and create derivative works from such User Content solely for the purposes of operating, maintaining, improving, promoting, and marketing the Service (including through social media platforms), as well as enhancing the quality, functionality, and security of the Service.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the User agrees not to assert or enforce any moral rights (including the right of attribution and the right of integrity) with respect to the User Content against the Company or any third party authorized by the Company.
The User represents and warrants that any User Content submitted through the Service does not infringe or violate the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, publicity rights, reputation, or any other rights of any third party. Where User Content is created, in whole or in part, using generative artificial intelligence or similar technologies, the User further represents and warrants that such content has been created and submitted in compliance with the applicable terms of use of the relevant AI service and all applicable laws and third-party rights.

Article 5. VIP Membership (Recurring Subscription)

Registered Users may enroll in the Company's VIP Membership program by paying the applicable monthly subscription fee prescribed by the Company. VIP Membership entitles eligible Users to access exclusive content and other benefits made available by the Company from time to time.
VIP Membership is a recurring subscription service that automatically renews for successive subscription periods at the then-current subscription fee unless the Registered User cancels the subscription in accordance with the procedures specified by the Company before the renewal date.
A Registered User may cancel their VIP Membership at any time using the cancellation procedures provided by the Company. Upon cancellation, the VIP Membership will remain active until the end of the then-current billing period, after which the subscription will terminate and will not renew automatically.
Subscription fees are non-refundable. No refunds, credits, or prorated reimbursements will be provided for any unused portion of a subscription period following cancellation, except where required by applicable law.

Article 6. Refund Policy

Except as required by applicable law, all purchases of Purchased Coins, Bonus Coins, VIP Membership subscriptions, and any other fees paid through the Service are final. The Company does not provide refunds, reimbursements, cash redemptions, or exchanges for any such purchases, regardless of the reason.
If Purchased Coins, Bonus Coins, or rewards associated with viewing advertisements (including, without limitation, complimentary viewing privileges or similar promotional benefits) are not credited to a User's account immediately due to network connectivity issues, system malfunctions, server outages, or other technical reasons, the Company's sole obligation shall be to credit the applicable Coins or rewards to the User's account promptly after the underlying issue has been resolved. No monetary refund or other compensation shall be provided in connection with such delays.
