Terms Of Service

Last updated March 04, 2024

Thank you for using Threadloop! To maintain the quality and integrity of our services, we kindly ask you to review our Terms of Service.

When we say “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us” in this document, we are referring to Threadloop AS.

When we say “Service”, we mean this website, threadloop.app.

When we say “You” or “your”, we are referring to the people or organizations that own an account on Threadloop.

We may update these Terms of Service ("Terms") in the future.

When you use our Service, now or in the future, you are agreeing to the latest Terms. There may be times where we do not exercise or enforce a right or provision of the Terms; however, that does not mean we are waiving that right or provision. These Terms do contain a limitation of our liability.

If you violate any of the Terms, we may terminate your account. That’s a broad statement and it means you need to place a lot of trust in us. We do our best to deserve that trust by being open about who we are, and keeping an open door to your feedback.

Account Terms

  1. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and password. The Company cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage from your failure to comply with this security obligation. We recommend all users set up two-factor authentication for added security.
  2. You may not use the Service for any purpose outlined in our Usage Restrictions policy.
  3. You are responsible for all content posted to and activity that occurs under your account, including content posted by and activity of any users in your account.
  4. You must be a human. Accounts registered by “bots” or other automated methods are not permitted.

Payment, Refunds, and Plan Changes

  1. If you are using the free version of Threadloop it is really free: we do not ask you for your credit card and — just like for customers who pay for our Service — we do not sell your data.
  2. If you are upgrading from a free plan to a paid plan, we will charge your card immediately and your billing cycle starts on the day of upgrade. For other upgrades or downgrades in plan level, the new rate starts from the next billing cycle.
  3. Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries and handles returns.
  4. We process refunds according to our Fair refund policy.

Cancellation and Termination

  1. You are solely responsible for properly canceling your subscription. Within Threadloop, we provide a simple no-questions-asked cancellation link. An email or phone request to cancel your account is not automatically considered cancellation. If you need help canceling your account, you can always contact our Support team.
  2. Upon cancelling your subscription, you will keep access to the paid features until the end of the current billing cycle. After the current billing cycle, you will lose access to the paid features, but you will still have access to the free features of Threadloop.
  3. We have the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of our Service for any reason at any time. Suspension means you will not be able to access the account or any content in the account. Termination will furthermore result in the deletion of your account or your access to your account, and the forfeiture and relinquishment of all content in your account. We also reserve the right to refuse the use of the Service to anyone for any reason at any time. There are some things we staunchly stand against and this clause is how we exercise that stance. For more details, see our Usage Restrictions policy.
  4. Verbal, physical, written or other abuse (including threats of abuse or retribution) of a Company employee or officer will result in immediate account termination.

Uptime, Security, and Privacy

  1. Your use of the Service is at your sole risk. We provide the Service on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
  2. We reserve the right to temporarily disable your account if your usage significantly exceeds the average usage of other customers of the Service. Of course, we’ll reach out to the account owner before taking any action except in rare cases where the level of use may negatively impact the performance of the Service for other customers.
  3. We take many measures to protect and secure your data through backups, redundancies, and encryption. We enforce encryption for data transmission from the public Internet.

  4. When you use our Service, you entrust us with your data. We take that trust to heart. You agree that Threadloop AS may process your data as described in our Privacy Policy and for no other purpose.

Copyright and Content Ownership

  1. All content posted on the Service must comply with relevant copyright laws, except where fair use can be claimed.
  2. You give us a limited license to use the content posted by you in order to provide the Service to you, but we claim no ownership rights over those materials. All materials you submit to the Service remain yours.
  3. We do not pre-screen content, but we reserve the right (but not the obligation) in our sole discretion to refuse or remove any content that is available via the Service.
  4. The Company or its licensors own all right, title, and interest in and to the Service, including all intellectual property rights therein, and you obtain no ownership rights in the Service as a result of your use. You may not duplicate, copy, or reuse any portion of the HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or visual design elements without express written permission from the Company. You must request permission to use the Company’s logos or any Service logos for promotional purposes. Please email us requests to use logos. We reserve the right to rescind any permissions if you violate these Terms.
  5. You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any portion of the Service, use of the Service, or access to the Service without the express written permission of the Company.

Features and Bugs

We design Threadloop with care, based on our own experience and the experiences of customers who share their time and feedback. However, there is no such thing as a service that pleases everybody. We make no guarantees that our Service will meet your specific requirements or expectations.

We also test all of our features extensively before shipping them. As with any software, our Service will inevitably have some bugs. We track the bugs reported to us and work through priority ones, especially any related to security or privacy. Not all reported bugs will get fixed and we don’t guarantee a completely error-free Service.

Liability

We mention liability throughout these Terms but to put it all in one section:

You expressly understand and agree that the Company shall not be liable, in law or in equity, to you or to any third party for any direct, indirect, incidental, lost profits, special, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses (even if the Company has been advised of the possibility of such damages), resulting from: (i) the use or the inability to use the Service; (ii) the cost of procurement of substitute goods and services resulting from any goods, data, information or services purchased or obtained or messages received or transactions entered into through or from the Service; (iii) unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data; (iv) statements or conduct of any third party on the Service; (v) or any other matter relating to these Terms or the Service, whether as a breach of contract, tort (including negligence whether active or passive), or any other theory of liability.

In other words: choosing to use our Service does mean you are making a bet on us. If the bet does not work out, that’s on you, not us. We do our best to be as safe a bet as possible through careful management of the business; investments in security, infrastructure, and talent; and in general caring a lot about what we are building. If you choose to use our Service, thank you for betting on us.

If you have a question about any of these Terms, please contact us
