This attention to detail extends to our terms and conditions for use of our websites (https://www.tinywhale.com & https://tinycard.to/) and platform too together with our mobile applications and related services this comprises our “Services”). Which means we’ll try our best to keep these Terms of Use (and any other relevant terms, policies, notices etc) (together they like to be called the “Terms”) simple, digestible, and effective. We’ll need to tweak or update our Terms of Use from time to time, and we reserve the right to do so at our sole discretion. We will post the latest changes to this page, and let you know at the top of this page the date these Terms of Use were last updated. We strongly recommend you get into the habit of checking our Terms of Use each time before you use our Services, just to make sure you’re up to speed on our latest changes and updates!

This also covers anything you email through the Services or otherwise use the Services for.To keep you on the straight and narrow, we’re going to list down what we consider content and/or use that’s illegal or prohibited by TinyWhale. We also fully reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate actions (including legal) against anyone who, in our sole discretion, violates this section. This might include us removing the offending content from the Services, suspending or terminating the accounts of violators and reporting you to law enforcement authorities (we really hate to do the last bit, but we will!).You agree not to use the Services to:

      1. Email or otherwise upload any content that:

    4. Payment
      Where you’re a client paying your service providers for goods and services through the Services, you’ll need to provide TinyWhale with your credit card information or other payment instrument. You represent and warrant to us that the information you provide here is true, and that you’re fully authorised to use your selected payment instrument. You’ll also need to promptly update your account information with any changes (like changes in billing address or an expired credit card).

      Any disputed charges by a service provider would need to be communicated with the service provider directly. As a service provider, if you agree to refund fees to a client, you will be responsible and will pay TinyWhale any transaction costs associated with any refund.

      Note that we reserve the right to change prices, and will give you notice of the change either through our website or in email to you. Where you continue to use the Services after any price or fee changes become effective, this means you agree to pay the amounts as charged. You’ll also be wholly responsible for any taxes incurred as a result of your using the Services.

      Where you’re a service provider charging your customer for goods and services, you can pass on any additional processing fees on to your customers by including the fee into the final charge amount (unless you’re based in jurisdictions where such practices are banned, like in the European Union). It is your responsibility and therefore important that you ensure that this action complies with any applicable laws relevant to your business. Do check with your legal counsel at any time if you’re unsure of what laws apply! TinyWhale expressly disclaims all liability arising from any act and/or omission by a service provider that results in a failure to comply with applicable laws.

    5. No Commercial Exploitation of the Service
      We’re legitimately trying to build a business here. This means that the Services are our bread and butter.

If you want to take advantage of this, we may need you to authenticate, register for or log into Social Networking Services on their respective platforms.

However, do note that TinyWhale is not responsible and will not be liable for the privacy practices of any third party site or service that may be enabled within the Services, and we strongly recommend that you read up on their respective policies as well to educate and protect yourself.

We enable these features to give you a more convenient journey, and any integration or inclusion of such features do not imply an endorsement or recommendation by TinyWhale.

Every contract worth its salt will have the following 3 clauses, and while we can’t get rid of them, we promise to lay them out in as quick and painless a way as we can. Here we go

  1. Indemnity and Release
    You agree to release, indemnify and hold TinyWhale and its affiliates, and their officers, employees, directors and agents (they like to be known as Indemnitee(s)”) harmless from any and all losses, damages, expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, rights, claims, actions of any kind and injury (including death) arising out of or relating to your use of the Services, any User Content, your connection to the Services, your violation of these Terms of Use or your violation of any rights of another. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will have no obligation to indemnify or hold harmless any Indemnitee from or against any liability, losses, damages or expenses incurred as a result of any action or inaction of such Indemnitee. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” If you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.
  2. Disclaimer of Warranties
    Your use of the Services is at your sole risk, and the Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. TinyWhale expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including, but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement.TinyWhale makes no warranty that:

    1. the Services will meet your requirements;
    2. the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free;
    3. the results that may be obtained from use of the Services will be accurate or reliable; or
    4. the quality of any products, services, information or other material purchased or obtained by you through the Services will meet your expectations.
  3. Limitation of Liability
    You expressly understand and agree that TinyWhale will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary damages, or damages for loss of profits, including but not limited to, damages for loss of goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses (even if we’ve been advised of the possibility of such damages), whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, resulting from:

    1. The use or inability to use the Services;
    2. The cost of procurement of substitute goods and services resulting from any goods, data, information or services purchased or obtained, or messages received, or transactions entered into, through or from the Services;
    3. Unauthorised access to or alteration of your transmissions or data;
    4. Any acts, omissions, statements or other conduct of any clients or service providers or other third parties on the Services;
    5. Any other matter relating to the Services.

    In no event will TinyWhale’s total liability to you for all damages, losses, or causes of action exceed the amount you’ve paid us in the last 6 months, or, if greater, US$100.

    Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer or exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the above limitations may not apply to you or be enforceable with respect to you. If you’re unhappy with any portion of the Services or with these Terms of Use, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue use of the Services.

    The foregoing sections titled “Disclaimer of Warranties” and “Limitation of Liability” are intended to be only as broad as is permitted under applicable laws (for e.g. under the laws of the state of New Jersey, U.S.). If any portion of these sections is held to be invalid under applicable laws, the invalidity of such portion shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the applicable sections.

The below 3 sections are super important as it affects your rights, so please read them carefully!

  1. Resolving Disputes
    1. If you have a concern, we want to first try to address it without needing a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against TinyWhale, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting legal@tinywhale.com. We’ll try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting you via email. If a dispute is not resolved within 15 days of submission, you or TinyWhale may bring a formal proceeding.
    2. You and TinyWhale agree that any judicial proceeding to resolve claims relating to these Terms of Use or the Services will be brought in the federal or state courts of California (if you’re a resident of the U.S.), , subject to the mandatory arbitration provisions below, or (ii) the courts of Singapore (if you’re a resident anywhere else in the world). Both you and TinyWhale consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in such courts. If you reside in a country with laws that give consumers the right to bring disputes in their local courts (for e.g. in a member state of the European Union), this paragraph doesn’t affect those requirements.
  2. Arbitration Agreement
    Mandatory Arbitration Provisions (which apply if you’re a U.S. Resident)

    1. We Both Agree to Arbitrate
      You and TinyWhale agree to resolve any claims relating to these Terms of Use or the Services through final and binding arbitration by a single arbitrator, except as set forth under Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate below.
    2. Opt-out of Agreement to Arbitrate
      You can decline this agreement to arbitrate within 30 days of first registering your account by contacting us at legal@tinywhale.com.
    3. Arbitration Procedures
      The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, a venue of our choosing or any other location we agree to.  The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address.
    4. Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate
      Either you or TinyWhale may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in a venue of our choosing or any United States county where you live or work. Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Product, or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above. If the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your claim, you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in a venue of our choosing to resolve your claim.
    5. No Class Actions
      You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section will be deemed void.
  3. Governing Law
    These Terms of Use will be governed by laws of (i) the state of California (if you’re a resident of the US), or (ii) Singapore, if you’re a resident anywhere else in the world), except for its conflict of laws principles. However, some countries (including those in the European Union) have laws that require agreements to be governed by the local laws of the consumer’s country. This section doesn’t override those laws.
  4. Termination
    You agree that we have the authority to suspend or terminate your account (or any part of it)  or use of the Services, and remove or discard any content within the Services, for any reason (this can include lack of use or if we believe you have violated or acted inconsistently with these Terms of Use). If we suspect any fraudulent, abusive or illegal activity coming from you that may be grounds for suspension or termination of your use of the Services, this may be referred to the appropriate law enforcement authorities. We may also in our sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Services, or any part of it, with or without notice to you. You agree that any termination of your access to the Services may be effected without any notice beforehand to you, and you agree that TinyWhale may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and content, and/or bar any further access to such information, content or the Services. You also agree that we won’t be liable to you or any third party for the termination or suspension of your access to the Services.
  5. User Disputes
    While we would love for everyone to co-exist harmoniously, we acknowledge that disputes do occur from time to time. You agree that you are entirely responsible for any interactions with other users in connection with the Services, and we will have no liability or responsibility for any of that. We reserve the right, but not the obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other use of the Services at our discretion.
  6. General Terms
    These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and us, and govern your use of the Services, superseding any previous agreements between you and us with respect to the Services. When you use affiliate or third party services, third party content or third party software, additional terms and conditions may apply. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration as set forth above, you and TinyWhale agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of: (i) the courts of the state of California (if you’re a resident of the US), or (ii) the courts of Singapore (if you’re a resident anywhere else in the world). Where we fail to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use, this will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Use is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, you and TinyWhale nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms ofUse remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Services or these Terms of Use must be filed within 1 year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign this Terms of Service without our prior written consent, but we may assign or transfer this Terms of Use, in whole or in part, without restriction. The section titles in these Terms of Use are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Notices to you may be made via email. The Services may also provide notices to you of changes to these Terms of Use or other matters by displaying notices or links to notices generally on the Services.
  7. Your Privacy Matters
