terms of service

1. who we are

FlickFeel is operated from India. Contact details are on the contact page. References to "we" and "us" mean the operator of FlickFeel; "you" means the person using it.

2. accounts

• You sign in with Google. You are responsible for that account's security.
• One person, one account. Ratings are tied to a signed-in account precisely so scores cannot be manufactured.
• We may suspend accounts that manipulate ratings, scrape at scale, or abuse other people.

3. your ratings and reviews

• You keep ownership of what you write.
• You grant us a non-exclusive licence to display your ratings and reviews in the product, and to include them in aggregate, anonymised statistics (for example a title's average arc). Aggregates never identify you and are subject to a minimum group size.
• We do not sell or share user-level data. If you would rather your ratings were excluded from aggregate reporting entirely, turn on the opt-out in your profile.
• You can export or delete everything you have written at any time.

Every rating and review on FlickFeel was written by a user. The site launched with generated taste personas whose ratings and review text were produced by software; those have been deleted, along with the code that made them. Some titles additionally carry a curve read from public discussion of that title — always labelled, always linked to its sources, never counted as a rating. See where the ratings come from.

4. the free forever charter

Every feature available on FlickFeel on 19 August 2026 stays free, permanently, for everyone. That list is published on the charter page and enforced in our code. Paid plans only ever cover features built after that date.

5. payments

• There is one thing to pay for and it is optional: a single donation of an amount you choose. It grants no features, no badge and no priority — see how we make money.
• There is no subscription, no recurring charge and nothing to cancel. If you ever see a repeating charge from us, it is a mistake and we will refund it.
• Donations are processed in INR by Razorpay, inclusive of applicable taxes. The amount is shown before you pay and Razorpay emails the receipt.
• Refunds are covered by the refund policy: no questions asked within 14 days, and on request after that.

6. acceptable use

• No automated rating submission, vote manipulation, or multi-accounting.
• No scraping beyond what a normal browser does.
• No harassment, hate speech, or illegal content in reviews.

7. third-party content

Film and TV metadata, posters, and availability information come from third-party sources including TMDB. This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB. Those rights belong to their respective owners.

8. no warranty, limited liability

FlickFeel is provided as-is. Scores are opinions in aggregate, not facts. To the extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before it arose.

9. changes and shutdown

We may change these terms; material changes will be announced in-product and by email at least 30 days ahead. If FlickFeel shuts down, we will give at least 60 days' notice and provide a full data export. Nobody is holding unused paid time, because nothing here is sold by the month — but anyone who donated within the preceding 12 months can ask for that money back.

10. governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India, with courts in the operator's jurisdiction.
