MovieDuo Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of these Terms

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and Adeeby Technologies LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”), governing your use of the MovieDuo mobile application (the “App”).

By downloading, installing, opening, or otherwise using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

If you are using the App on behalf of an organisation, you confirm that you have authority to accept these Terms for that organisation, and “you” means both you personally and the organisation.

Privacy: how we handle your data is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

2. Who can use the App

You must be at least 13 years old (or 16 in the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions that set a higher age of digital consent) to use the App. The App is intended for adults; we do not knowingly accept users under those ages.

If you are under 18 (or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction), you confirm that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and accepted these Terms on your behalf.

You may not use the App if you are barred from doing so under any applicable law, including export-control or sanctions law.

3. The App, in plain English

MovieDuo helps you and another person (your “partner”) decide what movie or TV show to watch together. The core mechanic:

1. You browse or AI-search for titles.
2. You and your partner each create or join a shared “couch” using a 6-character code.
3. You both swipe through suggestions independently. When you both swipe right on the same title, it is a “match”.
4. The App shows you where to stream each title and lets you build a shared watchlist.

Free with optional ads. The App is free to download and use. The AI search feature gives you one free natural-language search per day. Beyond that, you may choose to watch a short rewarded video advert (supplied by Google AdMob) to unlock additional searches, or wait until the next day. Watching an advert is always optional. The rest of the App, including discovery, swiping, matching, the watchlist, and trailers, contains no advertising.

4. Your account, or rather, the absence of one

The App does not require you to create an account. We do not collect your real name, email address, or phone number. The only personal information you choose to provide is a nickname you type into the Couch tab, used as a display label so your partner knows who they are matching with.

The App generates a synthetic identifier on your device the first time you create or join a couch. This identifier disambiguates your half of the shared couch from your partner’s half. It is not linked to your real identity.

You are responsible for keeping your couch code private if you wish to keep your matches private. Anyone with the 6-character code and your partner’s permission to act as guest can join your couch.

5. Acceptable use

You agree to use the App only for personal, non-commercial purposes, and to comply with all applicable laws. You agree NOT to:

• Use the App in a way that infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party (including by uploading or sharing content you do not have the right to share, in the limited cases where the App accepts user input).
• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent that applicable law (including, in the EU, Article 6 of Directive 2009/24/EC) explicitly permits.
• Use any automated means (bots, scrapers, headless browsers) to interact with the App, the rewarded-advert system, or the underlying APIs the App calls.
• Attempt to defeat, bypass, or manipulate the AI-search rate-limit, the rewarded-advert system, or any other monetisation mechanic.
• Probe, scan, stress, or attempt to breach the security of any part of the App or its backend services.
• Use the App to send unsolicited communications, spam, or any content that is unlawful, defamatory, obscene, threatening, or harassing.
• Choose a nickname that impersonates another person, infringes a trademark, or contains content that violates the previous bullet.
• Use the App in any jurisdiction where doing so would be illegal, or in a manner that exposes the Company to legal liability under any applicable law.

We may suspend or block access to the App or to the shared-couch backend, with or without notice, for any user we reasonably believe has violated this section.

6. Third-party content and services

The App displays movie and TV information sourced from The Movie Database (TMDB), AI-powered recommendations sourced from RapidAPI, video trailers hosted by YouTube, and rewarded video adverts served by Google AdMob. These third parties are not controlled by us. Their content, availability, and accuracy are their responsibility. Each has its own terms of service and privacy policy:

• TMDB: https://www.themoviedb.org/terms-of-use
• RapidAPI: https://rapidapi.com/terms/
• YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/t/terms
• Google AdMob (as part of Google Play Services): https://play.google.com/intl/en-us_us/about/play-terms/

When you use a feature backed by one of these third parties, you also agree to that third party’s terms.

The App may also link to external websites, including streaming platforms (Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV+, and others). We are not responsible for the content or operation of those websites.

7. Intellectual property

The App (including its source code, design, branding, name “MovieDuo”, icons, animations, text we wrote, and any artwork we created for it) is owned by the Company and protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, limited licence to install and use the App on devices you control, solely for your personal use, subject to these Terms and to the rules of the app store from which you obtained the App.

The licence is revoked automatically if you violate these Terms.

Movie and TV metadata, posters, backdrops, and trailers shown in the App are the property of their respective rights holders. We display them under the licences extended to us by TMDB and YouTube. Nothing in these Terms transfers any right in that content to you.

8. Feedback

If you send us feedback, suggestions, ideas, or proposed improvements about the App, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use that feedback for any purpose, including incorporating it into the App, without any obligation to credit or compensate you. You are not required to send us feedback. If you do, you confirm that you have the right to do so and that the feedback does not contain anyone else’s confidential information.

9. Disclaimers

The App is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The Company specifically disclaims:

• Any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
• Any warranty that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free from viruses or other harmful code.
• Any warranty about the accuracy, reliability, completeness, or timeliness of any content or recommendation surfaced by the App, including AI search results.

The AI search feature uses a third-party large language model. Its outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable for your purpose. Do not rely on the App for any decision where accuracy is critical.

Movie availability on streaming platforms changes constantly and varies by region. The “where to watch” information shown in the App is provided by TMDB and may be out of date. Confirm availability on the streaming platform itself before relying on it.

Some jurisdictions do not allow disclaimers of certain implied warranties. In those jurisdictions, the disclaimers above apply only to the extent permitted by law, and your statutory consumer rights remain unaffected.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will the Company, its officers, members, employees, or affiliates be liable to you for any:

• Indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages;
• Loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses;
• Damages arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the App, including any errors or omissions in any content surfaced by the App;
• Damages arising out of any third-party content, advert, or service surfaced through the App.

This limitation applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or any other legal theory, and whether or not the Company has been informed of the possibility of such damages.

In jurisdictions that do not permit the exclusion of certain damages, the Company’s total cumulative liability to you for all claims arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms will not exceed fifty United States dollars (US $50) or the amount you have paid the Company in the twelve months preceding the claim, whichever is greater. Because the App is currently free, the practical cap is US $50.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for negligence, gross negligence, fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or certain other liabilities. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

11. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any claim, loss, liability, expense, or demand (including reasonable lawyers’ fees) brought by a third party arising out of:

• Your use of the App in violation of these Terms;
• Your violation of any applicable law in connection with your use of the App; or
• Your violation of the rights of any third party (including intellectual-property rights) in connection with your use of the App.

This section does not apply to consumers in jurisdictions where such an indemnity from a consumer is unenforceable.

12. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time. To erase your data, see section 11 of the Privacy Policy.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the App, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, if we are required to do so by law, or if we discontinue the App.

If we discontinue the App, we will give a reasonable best-effort notice in the App or on our website before doing so. Discontinuation of the App does not give rise to any compensation, refund, or other obligation.

The following sections survive termination: 5 (Acceptable use, with respect to acts that occurred while you were using the App), 7 (Intellectual property), 8 (Feedback), 9 (Disclaimers), 10 (Limitation of liability), 11 (Indemnification), 13 (Governing law), 14 (Disputes), and 15 (General).

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States of America, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

If you are a consumer based in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, or another jurisdiction whose mandatory consumer-protection laws give you additional rights, those mandatory rights apply in addition to these Terms and override any inconsistent provision in these Terms only to the extent of the inconsistency.

14. Disputes

Before filing any formal claim, you agree to contact us at contact@adeeby.com and try to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

If the dispute cannot be resolved informally:

• Consumers in the EU/UK: you may also use the European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution platform (https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr) or your local consumer-protection authority.
• All other users: the dispute will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Sheridan County, Wyoming, United States of America, and you and the Company submit to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

To the extent permitted by law, you and the Company each waive any right to a jury trial and any right to bring or participate in a class action, collective action, or representative proceeding. This waiver does not apply where it is unenforceable under applicable law (including, where applicable, EU consumer law).

15. General

• Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and the Company about the App. They replace any prior version.
• Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest of the Terms remain in effect.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
• Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms. We may assign our rights and obligations to an affiliate or to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, on notice in the App or by email to the address you have given us.
• App-store rules. If you obtained the App from a third-party app store (Apple App Store, Google Play Store), you also agree to that store’s own terms. Where those terms are inconsistent with these Terms, the store’s terms apply with respect to your relationship with the store; these Terms govern your relationship with us.
• Changes to these Terms. We may update these Terms over time. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect the most recent change. For material changes (changes that meaningfully reduce your rights or change the core functionality you pay for), we will notify you in the App at the next launch and give you at least 30 days’ notice before the change takes effect. For minor clarifications, we will simply update the date.
