Terms of use
Last updated:
1. Acceptance
These Terms of use are the agreement between you and Atenny about the use of the Atenny app, the atenny.com website and the services connected to them (together, "Atenny").
By creating an account and confirming that you agree, you accept these terms and declare that you have read the Privacy policy, which explains how we handle your data. If you do not agree, do not use Atenny.
2. What Atenny is
Atenny is a social network for logging films, series, books and games you have watched, read or played, rating them, writing reviews, making lists, tracking your progress, following other people and helping improve the catalog.
Atenny is currently free. It may gain, change or lose features over time. If anything is ever paid, the conditions will be presented in advance, and nothing will be charged without your agreement.
3. Your account
- You must be at least 13 years old. If you are between 13 and 18, you need the knowledge and permission of your parents or guardians, who are also responsible for your use.
- Use true information, especially your email and date of birth.
- Your account is personal. Keep your password secret and let us know at [email protected] if you suspect someone has accessed it. You are responsible for what is done with your account.
- Your username (@) can be changed once every 30 days. We may refuse or remove an @ that imitates another person or brand, or that is offensive.
- Do not sell, rent or transfer your account.
4. Community rules
Atenny is a place for everyone to talk about what they love. For that to work, you may not:
- post illegal content, or content that encourages crime or violence;
- harass, threaten, intimidate or expose other people, including by sharing their personal data;
- post hate speech or discrimination based on race, color, ethnicity, religion, origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability or any other condition;
- post sexually explicit or violent content. Any content that sexualizes children or teenagers is prohibited and will be reported to the authorities;
- spam: repeated messages, unsolicited advertising, chain messages, misleading links or mass actions (following, liking, commenting) to get attention;
- impersonate another person, brand or organization, or create fake accounts or multiple accounts to get around rules, limits, blocks or suspensions;
- violate other people's rights, such as copyright and image rights (for example, copying entire books or sharing piracy links). Short book quotes, naming the work, are welcome;
- submit false information to the catalog or manipulate community review, votes, XP or rankings;
- use bots, scripts or other automated means to access Atenny or copy data from it (scraping) without our written permission;
- try to get around the service's security or limits, access other people's accounts or data, or send viruses and other malicious code;
- use Atenny in a way that harms the service or other people.
If you see something that breaks these rules, use the report option in the app. You can also block anyone you want.
5. What you post
Everything you create on Atenny (reviews, comments, lists, ratings, quotes, photo, etc.) remains yours. For the service to work, you grant us a free, non-exclusive, worldwide license, valid while the content is on Atenny, to store, reproduce, technically adapt (for example, cropping a photo or adjusting the format), display and distribute that content within Atenny, according to your privacy settings.
This license ends when you delete the content or your account, after the deletion periods described in the Privacy policy.
You guarantee that you have the right to post what you post and that the content does not break these terms or other people's rights. Opinions in reviews and comments belong to whoever wrote them, not to Atenny.
6. Contributions to the catalog
You can propose missing titles, corrections, translations and images. Proposals are reviewed by other members of the community and by our team, which may approve, reject or adjust any of them.
Only submit correct information and images you have the right to use. When a contribution is published, it becomes part of Atenny's catalog: you grant us a free, non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual and irrevocable license to use, edit, translate, combine with other data and display that contribution. That is why published contributions remain in the catalog even if you delete your account, with no link to you.
Contribution points may be lost for spam submissions, and we may stop anyone who abuses this feature from contributing.
7. Moderation, suspension and reports
Our team reviews reports and may, when these terms or the law are broken:
- remove or hide content;
- limit account features, such as contributing to the catalog;
- suspend or close the account, temporarily or permanently.
We generally tell you the reason. In serious cases, to protect other people, or when the law requires it, we may act without prior notice. If you think we made a mistake, write to [email protected] and we will review the decision.
We may also keep and hand over information to the authorities when the law requires it.
8. Level, XP and badges
XP, levels, badges and contribution points are a fun way to follow your use. They have no monetary value, cannot be sold or transferred, and the rules for earning them may change. We may correct or remove XP, badges and points obtained through abuse or a system error.
9. Catalog and third-party information
Information about titles (titles, synopses, covers, cast, dates, where to watch, etc.) comes from public databases, data partners and the community. We do our best to keep it accurate, but it may contain errors or become outdated. Availability on streaming services changes often and may vary by region.
Names, trademarks, covers and images of the works belong to their owners and are used only to identify the works. Atenny is not affiliated with or endorsed by studios, publishers, distributors or streaming services.
Links to third-party websites and apps are provided for convenience. We do not control those services, and using them is subject to their own terms.
10. What belongs to Atenny
The Atenny name and brand, the owl, the design, the texts, the software and the organization of the catalog belong to Atenny or its licensors. These terms allow you to use Atenny for personal, non-commercial purposes, but do not transfer any other rights over them.
11. Service availability
We work to keep Atenny always available, but it may be unavailable due to maintenance, technical failures or reasons beyond our control. We may change or discontinue features. If we ever shut down the service, we will give reasonable advance notice and you will be able to download your data.
12. Liability
Each person is responsible for the content they post. As provided in the Marco Civil da Internet (art. 19), we are not liable for content posted by other people, except in the cases provided by law, such as when we fail to comply with a court order to remove content. Even so, we remove what breaks these terms.
We are not liable for damage caused by third-party services, by catalog information from other sources, or by use of Atenny that does not comply with these terms.
Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code (Law No. 8,078/1990) or other laws that cannot be waived by contract.
13. Closing your account
You can delete your account whenever you want, in the app's Settings. The account is permanently deleted after 15 days, as explained in the Privacy policy.
We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms, as explained in section 7. The rules on the license for published contributions, liability and governing law remain in force after closure.
14. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms when Atenny changes or the law requires it. The date of the last update is at the top of the page. If the change is important, we will let you know in the app or by email before it takes effect and, when necessary, ask you to accept the new version. If you do not agree, you can delete your account.
These terms are originally written in Brazilian Portuguese and are also available in English and Spanish. If there is any difference between the versions, the Portuguese version prevails.
15. Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil. Any dispute will be settled in the courts of your place of residence, when you are a consumer in Brazil, or, in other cases, in the courts of the place where Atenny is based in Brazil.
Before going to court, talk to us: most problems can be solved by email.
