TERMS OF USE

Welcome to luupli!.​

These Terms of Use, as of the date that You accept this Agreement (“Effective Date”), is hereby entered into and agreed upon by You (“User”) and luupli Ltd (“luupli”, “Platform” or “App” or “We” or “Us”), as well as all related embeddable widgets, downloadable software, products, mobile application, and other services provided by us (collectively, the “Service”).

These Terms of Use ("Terms" or “Agreement”) govern your access to and use of the Platform, Services and products as defined below. These Terms set out the rights and obligations of all users regarding the use of the Platform. Your access to and use of the Platform is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. This Agreement applies to all visitors, subscribers and others who access or use the Platform. Please read these Terms carefully before using the Services. If You disagree with any part of these Terms, then you may not access or use the Platform.

If you are using the Services on behalf of an organisation, you are agreeing to the Agreement on behalf of that organisation and representing that you have the authority to bind that organisation to the Agreement. In that case, "you" and "your'' will refer to that organisation. luupli and you are each a “Party” to the Agreement.

luupli Overview​

At Luupli, our goal is to connect people through digital threads, creating an inclusive space where every voice matters. We believe everyone, no matter their background, should have a fair and transparent platform. Our mission is to redefine how users and creators not only coexist but thrive together.

At the core of Luupli's values is a focus on user privacy and building genuine connections. This includes fostering personal ties among friends and family and facilitating meaningful relationships with global influencers. Luupli goes beyond being just a platform; it's a commitment to breaking down systemic inequalities in social media.

To tackle income and opportunity disparities in today's digital landscape, we're launching initiatives. These efforts are aimed at boosting creators from underserved global communities. Luupli is not only changing the digital experience; we're creating a welcoming space where diversity is celebrated, and everyone can flourish.

Revenue Sharing​

While most social media sites extract this value for the benefit of their shareholders, luupli believes that the users of the platform should receive the benefits and rewards for their attention and the contributions they make to the platform. When users talk to family, chat with friends, or scroll through their home pages; or when watching videos, movies or series on luupli, ads are displayed. These ads, in turn, generate revenue for luupli. The difference is that luupli splits all the revenue generated by an ad with the user and the creator of the content. luupli will keep some of its advertising revenue and give away a portion to the content creator. The user, who has just watched the ad, will receive a certain portion of the revenue generated by the ad they just saw. The more ads users see on the app, the more money they earn.

Child Sexual Exploitation & Abuse Policy​

At Luupli, we strictly prohibit content that sexualizes or endangers children, whether real or fictional, including representations in the form of anime, digital images, media, text, or illustrations. This policy applies to any visual depictions, sharing of third-party links, or discussions involving sexually explicit conduct related to children. It is explicitly forbidden to upload, store, produce, share, or solicit the sharing of child sexual abuse material (CSAM), regardless of the intent, including efforts to express outrage or raise awareness about such issues.

We recognize that users may wish to share content featuring their own children in a personal and meaningful context. However, such discussions or imagery must remain lawful, appropriate, and relevant. Photos of children uploaded to Luupli profiles must depict them fully clothed. This includes photos from a user's own childhood.

Profile photos or content that include images of infants, toddlers, or children displaying genitalia or buttocks, even if covered or obscured with emojis or other visual effects, are strictly prohibited.

Violations of this policy will result in the immediate removal of the user from the platform and a report being filed with relevant authorities. In compliance with U.K. law, any instance of suspected child sexual exploitation, grooming, or abuse identified on Luupli will be reported to authorities. These reports may also be shared with appropriate local and international law enforcement agencies to ensure swift action.

The safety and protection of children remain a foundational priority for Luupli, and we encourage all users to report any content or behavior that violates these principles.
