CottonCastle

Terms of Use

Effective date: August 15, 2026

These Terms of Use govern your use of the SameScene mobile application and related services operated by CottonCastle ("we", "us", or "SameScene"). By creating an account, continuing with Google, or using SameScene, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

1. Eligibility

SameScene is intended only for people who are at least 18 years old. By creating an account, you confirm that you are 18 or older and legally able to agree to these Terms. You must not use SameScene if applicable law prevents you from doing so.

2. Accounts

You must provide accurate information, protect access to your account, and promptly tell us about suspected unauthorized use. You are responsible for activity performed through your account. Usernames, profile photos, biographies, and other profile information must comply with these Terms.

3. Matching and chats

SameScene helps adults discover people interested in discussing movies and series. Matches, suggestions, notifications, availability, and compatibility are not guaranteed. People you meet are independent users, not employees or representatives of CottonCastle.

Use good judgment when talking to people you do not know. Do not share sensitive personal, financial, login, or precise location information. Never send money or credentials to another user.

4. User content and conduct

You must not use SameScene to create, share, request, or promote:

• harassment, threats, hate, bullying, stalking, or targeted abuse;
• sexual exploitation, grooming, CSAM, or sexual content involving minors;
• illegal activity, violence, fraud, scams, impersonation, spam, or malware;
• another person's private information without authorization;
• content that infringes copyright, trademark, privacy, or other rights;
• misleading reports, attempts to evade enforcement, or abuse of app features.

Respect the spoiler setting of each conversation. Spoiler labels reduce risk but cannot guarantee that another user will follow them.

5. Content license

You retain ownership of content you submit. You grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, store, transmit, display, reproduce, and process that content only as needed to operate, secure, moderate, improve, and legally support SameScene. This license ends when the content is deleted, except where limited retention is legally permitted or reasonably required for safety, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or enforcement.

6. Reports, blocking, and enforcement

Users can report and block accounts. We may review reports and relevant account or conversation information, remove content, restrict features, end chats, suspend accounts, or delete accounts when reasonably needed to enforce these Terms, protect users, or comply with law. See our Child Safety Standards.

7. Premium subscriptions and purchases

Premium products are billed through Google Play or another applicable app store. Prices, renewal periods, taxes, trial terms, cancellation, and refund rights are shown by the store and governed by its rules and applicable consumer law. Subscriptions may renew automatically until canceled in your store account. Deleting SameScene does not by itself cancel an active subscription.

8. Advertising and rewarded credits

Non-premium users may see advertising. Where offered, completing a rewarded ad may grant a limited in-app credit. Credits have no cash value, are non-transferable, may expire or reset as described in the app, and may be withheld or reversed in cases of invalid traffic, manipulation, technical error, or abuse.

9. Third-party services and content data

SameScene relies on services such as Firebase, Google Sign-In, Google Play, AdMob, and TMDB. Their own terms may apply. This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB. Movie and series metadata may be incomplete, delayed, or inaccurate.

10. Account deletion and termination

You may request account deletion through the app settings or our account deletion page. You may stop using SameScene at any time. We may restrict or terminate access for violations, safety risks, fraud, legal requirements, or material harm to the service or its users.

11. Service availability and disclaimers

SameScene is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis to the extent permitted by law. We do not promise uninterrupted availability, successful matches, message delivery, perfect translations, or error-free content data. Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or remedies that cannot legally be excluded under applicable consumer law.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CottonCastle is not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for conduct, content, or transactions between users. Our liability remains subject to any mandatory protections that apply where you live.

13. Changes

We may update these Terms as the service or law changes. We will update the effective date and provide notice where required. Continued use after an update takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.

14. Governing law and contact

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Turkiye, without removing mandatory consumer protections available in your country. Questions can be sent to cottoncastleapps@gmail.com.
