The rules, plainly.

These Terms ("Terms") form a legal agreement between you and Petlys ("we," "us"). By creating an account or using the service, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use Petlys.

• You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum digital-consent age in your country) to create an account.
• You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for activity under your account.
• Tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorized access.

Anything you upload — photos, voice notes, memories, records — is yours. You keep all ownership. You grant us only the narrow license we need to store and display it back to you (and to anyone you explicitly share it with) so the service works. That license ends when you delete the content or your account.

You are responsible for what you upload. Don't upload content that infringes someone else's rights or violates the law.

Please don't:

• Use Petlys to store or share illegal content.
• Try to break, probe, or overload the service (unless you're reporting a vulnerability responsibly — see our Trust page).
• Attempt to access other users' accounts or data.
• Scrape the service, resell it, or wrap it as your own product without permission.
• Impersonate someone else or misrepresent your affiliation with anyone.

Petlys may offer both free and paid plans. If you subscribe to a paid plan, pricing and billing terms will be shown at checkout and become part of these Terms. You may cancel at any time; unless otherwise stated, cancellation stops future charges but doesn't refund the current billing period.

When you create a share link, whoever holds that link can view what you shared under the terms you set. You are responsible for who you share links with. You can revoke any share link from your dashboard.

We may improve, change, or occasionally take features down for maintenance. We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. If we discontinue a significant feature we'll give you reasonable notice and a way to export your data.

If you submit a photo to our "Household Names" wall, you confirm you own the photo (or have permission to submit it) and that your companion is the subject. You grant Petlys a limited, worldwide, royalty-free license to display that photo, your pet's first name, species, and optional caption on the Petlys website for as long as your submission remains active. Every submission is reviewed by an automated safety check before appearing, and any user can report a featured photo, which automatically hides it pending review. You can withdraw a submission at any time from your account; withdrawal removes the photo from public display and deletes the original file. We may decline or remove any submission at our discretion.

You can delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, or in response to legal process. On termination, your right to use the service ends; the sections that should survive (ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, dispute resolution) will survive.

Petlys is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Petlys is not a substitute for professional veterinary advice; always consult a licensed veterinarian for medical decisions about your pet.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Petlys and its team will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenues, or data, arising out of or in connection with your use of the service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service will not exceed the greater of the amounts you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, or one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which Petlys is organized, without regard to conflict of laws rules. Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable consumer rights you have in your country of residence.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes we will post the updated Terms here, update the "Last updated" date, and, where appropriate, notify you by email. Continued use of the service after changes means you accept them.
