Terms of Service

Interlude is a file delivery, review, and approval tool. A creator uploads files (for example videos, images, and documents), attaches a caption and a proposed posting date to each, and shares a link. The recipient (“client” or “brand”) opens that link, reviews the files and captions, leaves comments, and approves each item.

What Interlude is not. Interlude does not post, schedule, or publish anything to any social media platform, does not scrape or access any social media account, and does not provide social login. A posting date attached to a file is proposed metadata for review only — approving it within Interlude does not cause anything to be posted anywhere. Acting on an approved deliverable, including publishing it on any platform, is entirely your responsibility.

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Service. By using the Service you represent that you meet this requirement and that you have the authority to agree to these Terms, including on behalf of any organization you represent.

This version of the Service does not use registered accounts or passwords. Access to a submission is controlled by a link. Anyone who holds a valid link can access the submission it points to, subject to expiry and revocation.

You acknowledge and accept that:

• A link is a credential, like a key. Treat it as confidential. Anyone you share it with — or anyone it is forwarded to — can access the associated submission.
• Names entered when using the Service (for example a creator’s name or a reviewer’s name) are self-asserted and not verified by us. We do not confirm that a person is who they claim to be.
• We are not able to authenticate identity in this version and do not represent that any name, approval, or comment is attributable to a verified individual.

If you believe a link has been shared improperly, stop distributing it and contact us so the link can be revoked.

“Your Content” means any file, caption, comment, name, date, or other material you upload, submit, or transmit through the Service.

• Ownership. You retain all rights you hold in Your Content. These Terms do not transfer ownership to us.
• Licence to operate the Service. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, transmit, transcode, display, and otherwise process Your Content solely to provide and maintain the Service (for example, to store an uploaded video, generate playable versions of it, and display it to the people you share the link with). This licence ends when the content is deleted from the Service, subject to retention described in Section 9 and to backups that age out in the ordinary course.
• Responsibility. You are solely responsible for Your Content and for having the rights necessary to upload and share it. You must not upload content you do not have the right to share.

You agree not to use the Service to upload, store, share, or transmit content that:

• infringes any intellectual property, privacy, or other right of any person;
• is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, abusive, or contains sexual content involving minors or any other illegal material;
• contains malware, or is intended to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorized access to any system; or
• violates any applicable law or regulation.

You also agree not to: attempt to access submissions you have not been given a link to; enumerate, guess, or brute-force links; circumvent rate limits or other technical protections; or use the Service to build a competing product by automated extraction.

We may suspend or terminate access, and remove content, if we reasonably believe these Terms have been breached, or to comply with law or a valid legal request.

• Uploading a new version of a file, or editing a caption or date, resets the corresponding approval to “pending.” Approval status reflects the current state of each item and may change over time.
• Approvals are recorded with the self-asserted name of the person who approved, along with a timestamp and technical metadata, for record-keeping. As stated in Section 3, these names are not identity-verified.
• File size and format limits apply (for example, a total upload size limit shown in the interface). We may change these limits.

The Service is provided on an “as available” basis. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time. We aim to give reasonable notice of material changes where practical, but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.

Where the Service is offered free of charge, the retention and other limits described here and in the interface apply. If we introduce paid plans, the applicable terms and pricing will be presented to you before you incur any charge.

On the free tier, submissions and their associated files, versions, captions, comments, and stored objects are deleted approximately 30 days after creation, automatically. Do not rely on the Service as a permanent store or backup of Your Content. Keep your own copies of anything you need to retain. Deletion of a file does not necessarily delete comments that referenced it; those may remain in the discussion record marked as referring to removed content.

The Service itself — including its software, design, and trademarks — is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by law. These Terms grant you no rights in the Service other than the right to use it as permitted here.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that content will be preserved.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any right you have as a consumer under mandatory Dutch or EU law that cannot lawfully be excluded.

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

• We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, revenue, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of the Service.
• Our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) EUR 100.

These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (including liability for intent or gross negligence, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence), nor do they limit consumers’ mandatory statutory rights.

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, damages, and reasonable costs (including legal fees) arising from Your Content or your breach of these Terms, except to the extent such claims arise from our own intent or gross negligence.

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate access as described in Section 5 or where required by law. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 4 ownership, 11, 12, 13, and 15) survive.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands. Disputes will be submitted to the competent court in Amsterdam, without prejudice to any mandatory right a consumer has to bring proceedings in, or have the law applied of, their country of residence within the EU.

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date reflects the latest version. Material changes will be communicated by reasonable means. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
