Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern access to and use of Swimmy File (“the Service”), operated by Bavarois LLC (“the Company”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms.

1. The Service

Swimmy File is a file sharing service. Users may upload one or more files as a shared upload package, receive a single shareable link, and choose to make content public (discoverable within the Service) or link only (accessible only via direct link).

2. Accounts

• You must provide a valid email address and verify it before uploading content.
• You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials.
• One account per person. Creating multiple accounts to evade limits or a ban is prohibited.

3. Uploads and Storage

• New accounts are subject to initial limits (currently up to 5 uploads per day, 2GB per file, 10GB total storage). Limits may increase as an account's trust level rises.
• Uploaded files may be deleted automatically after their configured expiration period.
• The Company may generate thumbnails and store files using third-party cloud infrastructure (e.g. AWS S3/CloudFront) to operate the Service.

4. Prohibited Content and Conduct

You may not upload, share, or link to content that:

• Infringes copyright or other intellectual property rights;
• Is illegal, or depicts or involves minors in a sexual or exploitative manner;
• Constitutes harassment, threats, or violent content;
• Is spam, or is uploaded through automated/bulk means to circumvent upload limits;
• Contains malware or is otherwise intended to harm the Service or its users.

5. Reporting and Moderation

Users may report content for copyright infringement, spam, adult content, violence, or other concerns. The Company reviews reports and may hide, remove, or restrict content, and may suspend or ban accounts (including by IP address, email, or account) that violate these Terms. Newly uploaded public content may not appear in Discover until it passes an initial review period.

6. Copyright / Rights Holder Requests

If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, submit a request via the Support page, selecting the copyright/rights-holder category and including enough detail to identify the content and your claim. The Company will review and may remove content pending investigation.

7. Content Ownership and License

You retain ownership of content you upload. By uploading, you grant the Company a limited license to host, store, and display that content solely as necessary to operate the Service (e.g. serving playback, generating thumbnails, showing it in Discover if public).

8. Termination

The Company may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, at its discretion, with or without notice. Users may stop using the Service at any time.

9. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the Service.

10. Changes to these Terms

The Company may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

11. Governing Law
