Terms of Use

Last updated November 12, 2026

1. Agreeing to these terms

These terms are an agreement between you and Verdictin ("we", "us"). They cover the Verdictin apps, the website at verdictin.app and our waitlist. By creating an account or using Verdictin, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use Verdictin.

2. Advice, not orders

Verdicts, votes, comments and answers on Verdictin are the opinions of other users. They are not financial, legal, medical, mental health or any other professional advice, and we don't check whether they're right. You make every decision yourself, and you're responsible for it.

If you're facing a serious decision about your health, safety, money or the law, talk to a qualified professional. If you or someone else is in danger, contact local emergency services.

3. Who can use Verdictin

• You must be 16 or older.
• If you're under the age of majority where you live (18 or 19 in most of Canada), a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you.
• You can't use Verdictin if we've banned you before, or if the law doesn't allow you to.

4. Your account

• One person, one account. Give accurate information and keep your sign-in secure. You're responsible for what happens on your account.
• Usernames: don't pick one that pretends to be someone else, uses a brand you don't own, or is offensive. You can change it once every 30 days. We may take back a username that breaks these rules or is inactive for a long time.
• Tell us if you think someone else is using your account.

5. Community code

Verdictin works because people are honest and kind. When you post, vote, comment or answer:

• Judge the choice, never the person. "Skip it, you said you're saving" is fine. Comments about anyone's body, looks, weight, money or worth are not.
• No hate or harassment: no attacks based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability or age. No bullying, threats or pile-ons.
• No sexual content, nudity, or sexualized content involving anyone under 18, ever.
• No violence: no graphic violence, self-harm encouragement, or content that promotes dangerous acts.
• Private information: no addresses, phone numbers or other private information about anyone, and no photos of other people without their permission.
• No illegal activity: nothing illegal, and no decisions that involve hurting someone or breaking the law.
• No spam or selling: no ads, affiliate links, scams, or selling things through posts or comments.
• Be real: no fake posts made to trick people, no misleading photos, and no pretending to be someone else.

6. Posting anonymously

You can post, vote and comment as "Anonymous". It hides your username from other users, not from us. Every rule in these terms still applies, and anonymous content counts toward strikes and bans on your account.

7. Don't misuse Verdictin

Don't:

• Use bots, scripts or fake accounts.
• Buy, sell or trade votes, or coordinate votes to fake a verdict.
• Scrape or copy Verdictin's content or data.
• Get around a block, ban or limit.
• Try to break, overload or hack Verdictin, or reverse-engineer the app.
• Use Verdictin to advertise without our written permission.

8. Your content

• You own what you post: photos, text, votes, comments and answers.
• You give us permission to use it to run Verdictin. By posting, you give us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, show, copy, resize and share your content inside Verdictin, to the audience you chose, and in features you use, such as verdict share cards. This licence ends when you delete the content, except for copies other users already shared, or that we must keep for safety or legal reasons.
• We won't use your posts in our advertising without asking you first.
• Make sure you have the right to post it. Only post photos and content you took yourself or have permission to use.
• Feedback: if you send us ideas or feedback, we can use them without owing you anything.

9. Our content

The Verdictin name, logo, app design and code belong to us. You can't copy or use them, except to share Verdictin posts and links in the normal way.

10. Moderation and appeals

• Checks before posting: we check posts, photos and comments before and after they go live, using automated tools and human review. We may refuse or remove anything that breaks these terms.
• Strikes: when content breaks the rules, you get a strike. Three strikes in 90 days can lead to a temporary or permanent ban. Serious violations can lead to an immediate ban.
• Appeals: we'll tell you when we remove your content or limit your account, unless we're not allowed to. You can appeal in the app or by emailing hello@verdictin.app, and a person will review it.
• Report problems: use the Report button on any post, comment or profile.
• Legal duties: we may report illegal content, especially anything involving harm to a child, to the police or to organizations such as the Canadian Centre for Child Protection.

11. Copyright complaints

If you believe something on Verdictin uses your work without permission, email hello@verdictin.app. Include:

• what the work is
• where it appears on Verdictin
• how to contact you

We'll look into it and, where appropriate, remove it or forward your notice to the person who posted it.

12. Prices and the money tracker

Prices in posts are entered by users and may be wrong or out of date. The money tracker only counts what you tell it, so it isn't a bank statement or financial advice. Currency conversions are estimates.

13. Other sites and stores

Posts may link to or show products from other stores and websites. We don't control them, don't endorse them, and aren't responsible for anything you buy from them. Their terms apply. If you sign in with Apple, Google or TikTok, their terms also apply to that sign-in.

14. The service

• Free: Verdictin is free to use.
• Changes: we may add, change or remove features, set limits (such as posts or votes per day), or stop offering Verdictin. We'll give reasonable notice of big changes when we can.
• Test versions: early versions, such as TestFlight builds, may have bugs and may lose data.

15. No promises

Verdictin is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent the law allows, we don't promise that Verdictin will always work, be error-free or secure, or that anything posted on it is accurate. Some places don't allow these exclusions. If you live in one of them, including Quebec, the parts that aren't allowed don't apply to you.

16. Limits on liability

To the extent the law allows, we aren't responsible for indirect or consequential losses, or for losses caused by another user's content or by a decision you made after using Verdictin, including anything you did or didn't buy. If we are responsible for a loss, our total liability is limited to $100 CAD. Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law doesn't allow us to limit, such as for gross negligence, intentional harm, or your rights under consumer protection laws.

17. Ending your account

You can delete your account at any time in Settings. We may suspend or end your account if you break these terms, if the law requires it, or to protect other users. Sections 2, 8, 9, 15, 16 and 18 keep applying after your account ends.

18. Which law applies

These terms are governed by the laws of Canada and of the province or territory where you live. Any dispute will be handled by the courts there, unless the law lets you choose another court. If you're a consumer, nothing in these terms takes away rights you have under your local consumer protection laws. Before going to court, please email us. Most problems can be fixed quickly.

19. Changes

We may update these terms. We'll change the date at the top, and for important changes we'll tell you in the app or by email before they take effect. If you keep using Verdictin after that, you accept the new terms. If you don't agree, you can delete your account.
