Texterview Terms of Use

Please read these Terms of Use carefully. They contain important information about your rights and responsibilities when using Texterview.

Effective: September 12, 2025
Last Updated: February 10, 2026

By accessing or using Texterview, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site or services.

I may update these Terms from time to time. Any changes will be posted here with a new “Last Updated” date. Continued use means the updated Terms apply.

1. Who Can Use Texterview

You must be at least 18 years old to submit content to Texterview.
You may browse and read Texterviews if you are 13 or older, provided you meet your local legal age requirements.

2. What Texterview Is

Texterview is a storytelling platform where people share authentic personal experiences through text and voice submissions. These stories may be published across different formats (such as written posts, audio episodes, or video content) based on the creator’s consent.

Texterview:

Is not a social network
Does not include comments or user-to-user interaction
Allows optional accounts solely for bookmarking and saving content

You can read all Texterviews without creating an account.

3. Your Content & Ownership

What you own

When you submit content to Texterview, you retain full and exclusive ownership of your story and all related content, including:

Your original submission
Any voice recordings, text, or materials you provide
All edits, versions, adaptations, and final published formats
All rights before publication, after publication, and after removal

Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of your content to me.

Any editing, formatting, or production I perform is done solely as a service to you and does not create ownership, co-ownership, or derivative ownership rights for me.

Your ownership rights are governed by the applicable Texterview Submission and Release Agreement, which controls in the event of any inconsistency.

What you license to me

By submitting content, you grant me a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to publish, distribute, and promote your content:

Only in formats you have explicitly agreed to
Only for the purposes described in your submission agreement
Only for as long as your content remains published

This license does not transfer ownership and ends upon removal, except where continued display is technically unavoidable (such as third-party caches or archives beyond my control).

Content standards

You agree that your content will be:

Truthful and not intentionally misleading
Your own story that you have the right to share
Free from content promoting violence, harassment, or illegal activity
Respectful in tone, even when discussing difficult topics

4. Third-Party Requests

Because you own your content, third parties must get your permission to use it.

If someone wants to feature your Texterview:

I route requests based on your selected preferences
I contact you first
Your email is only shared if you agree
You control all negotiations and keep all revenue
I take no fees from any deals

You may change your preferences at any time.

5. Removal Rights

You may request removal of your content at any time using the Texterview Removal Request process.

Content will be removed from platforms I control within 7 days
Promotion and distribution will stop
Complete internet removal may not be possible due to third-party platforms, cached copies, or archives beyond my control

6. Prohibited Activities

You may not:

Interfere with or disrupt the platform
Access non-public systems or data
Upload malicious code or viruses
Violate laws or others’ rights
Scrape, mine, or harvest data
Submit false or misleading information
Use the service fraudulently or abusively

7. Platform Rights

What I own

Texterview’s name, branding, and underlying technology belong to me. You may not use the Texterview name or branding without permission.

Content moderation

I may remove content that:

Violates these Terms or applicable law
Contains abuse, harassment, or discrimination
Infringes others’ rights
Creates legal or operational risk

I reserve the right to investigate suspected violations and take appropriate action.

No endorsement

Texterviews represent individual experiences and opinions. I do not endorse or verify user content.

8. Privacy & Data Use

Your privacy matters to me.

Account data (if you create an account) is used only for bookmarking
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials
Email addresses are kept private and used only for Texterview-related communication
I do not use emails for marketing or newsletters

Full details are explained in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

9. Third-Party Content

Texterview may link to or embed third-party content. I am not responsible for external sites or services. Use them at your own risk.

10. Intellectual Property Concerns

If you believe content infringes your rights, contact me at pteyra@texterview.com with sufficient details so I can review it.

11. Disclaimers

Texterview is provided “as is.” I do not guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free operation, or that the platform will meet your specific needs.
User-submitted content is accessed at your own discretion.
Texterview content is for informational and storytelling purposes only and is not professional advice.
Nothing in this section limits or excludes liability for willful misconduct or gross negligence.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to release me (Pteyra) from liability arising out of the creation, publication, or distribution of Texterview content.

This limitation does not apply in cases of willful misconduct or gross negligence.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability where such limitation is prohibited by law.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold me harmless from claims arising out of:

Your use of Texterview
Your violation of these Terms
Your content or actions
Your violation of laws or others’ rights

14. Termination

Your right

You may stop using Texterview at any time.

My right

I may suspend or terminate access for violations of these Terms or other legitimate reasons.

Termination does not affect your ownership rights or content removal rights.

I may also modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of Texterview at any time, with or without notice.

15. Legal Terms

Governing law & jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable in your place of residence. Nothing here is intended to override or limit your local legal rights.

You are responsible for ensuring your use of Texterview complies with laws in your location.

Order of precedence

If there is any conflict between these Terms and a Texterview Submission Agreement or Podcast Release Agreement, the signed agreement controls.

Electronic communications

By using Texterview, you agree to receive electronic communications related to your content, account, or requests.

Force majeure

I am not liable for failures caused by events beyond reasonable control.

Entire agreement

These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and applicable submission agreements form the complete agreement between us.

Severability

If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remain in effect.

No waiver

Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.

Assignment

You may not assign your rights. I may assign mine.
