  • Your rental starts at confirmation and lasts for the duration you select (up to 30 days).
  • Prices are calculated per hour and may differ for image/gif vs. video content.
  • Rentals are considered complete only after on-chain payment is verified (“done” status).
  • We may remove content that violates these Terms; rentals removed for violations are not refunded.

5) Payments & Fees

  • Payments occur on the Solana network and may include network fees.
  • All amounts are displayed in SOL (or as otherwise indicated). Final settlement is in SOL.
  • Refunds are not guaranteed once a transaction is confirmed on-chain.

6) Media & Content Rules

You are responsible for all media you upload or link. Content must not be illegal, harmful, hateful, harassing, defamatory, pornographic, infringing, or otherwise objectionable. We may moderate or remove content at our discretion and may suspend future access for violations.

  • We do not guarantee perpetual hosting of any media.

8) Intellectual Property

You retain rights in your content. By uploading media, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, display, and distribute it as necessary to operate the Service. You warrant that you are the owner or have the necessary rights to publish any content you submit.

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. Blockchain networks are outside our control; transactions may be delayed or fail due to network conditions.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenues, data, or goodwill arising from use of the Service.
