Capsule is a private monthly time capsule service that allows close groups to create, share, and collectively unlock personal snapshots of their lives on a scheduled basis.

• We strive to maintain high availability but do not guarantee the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free
• We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time with reasonable notice
• We are not liable for any loss resulting from Service downtime, interruptions, or discontinuation

• Delivery depends on the continued validity of recipient contact information, which you are responsible for maintaining
• We are not responsible for non-delivery caused by invalid or changed contact information
• Email delivery may be affected by spam filters, changed addresses, or closed accounts
• We strongly encourage you to maintain backup copies of content that is important to you

You retain all intellectual property rights in content you create and upload ("User Content"). By using the Service, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to store, process, and transmit your User Content solely as necessary to provide the Service.

You represent and warrant that:

• You own or have the necessary rights and permissions to upload and share your User Content
• Your User Content does not infringe the intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of any third party
• You have obtained consent from any individuals depicted or identifiable in your User Content
• Your User Content does not violate any applicable law

You agree not to create, upload, or transmit content that:

• Is sexually explicit, obscene, or pornographic
• Depicts or promotes child exploitation or abuse in any form
• Is threatening, harassing, defamatory, or abusive toward any individual
• Incites violence, hatred, or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or national origin

• Contains malware, viruses, or other harmful code
• Violates the privacy of others, including unauthorized sharing of personal information
• Infringes any copyright, trademark, patent, or other intellectual property right
• Is intended to harass, stalk, or harm any person

We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to review, remove, or disable access to any User Content that we believe violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable. We will not be liable for any action or inaction regarding User Content.

The Service, including its design, features, functionality, logos, trademarks, and underlying technology, is owned by Capsule and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the Service without our prior written consent.

If you provide us with suggestions, ideas, or feedback about the Service, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use that feedback for any purpose without compensation to you.

You may terminate your account at any time by contacting us or using the account deletion feature. Upon termination, we will delete your account and personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Termination does not affect capsules that have already been delivered.

We may suspend or terminate your account immediately, without prior notice, if:

• You breach any provision of these Terms
• We are required to do so by law or court order
• We believe your use of the Service poses a risk to other users or third parties
• Your account has been inactive for an extended period (we will provide advance notice)

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 3, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13) will survive.

Before filing a formal legal claim, you agree to contact us at legal@ourcapsule.co and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

If informal resolution fails, you and Capsule agree that any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in court for intellectual property infringement.

You and Capsule each waive the right to participate in class action litigation or class-wide arbitration.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

These Terms and our Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and Capsule regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights.

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes via email or prominent notice on the Service at least 30 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance.
