Using Tempo
You must be 16 or older to use Tempo. You also can’t use it if US
law doesn’t allow us to provide it to you, for example because you live in a
country under US trade sanctions.
Your account
You’re responsible for your account and what’s done with it. Tempo doesn’t
use an email address or phone number, so we can’t recover an account for you.
Keep your password and recovery key safe.
We can take back a username that impersonates someone, uses someone else’s
trademark, or is offensive.
What’s not allowed
Tempo has no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive users.
Don’t use Tempo to:
- harass, threaten, or bully anyone
- send anything that sexualizes or exploits children
- share sexual images of someone without their consent
- break the law, or help someone else break it
- spam or scam people, or pretend to be someone else
- spread malware, or try to break into, overload, or disrupt Tempo
- infringe someone else’s copyright, trademark, or other rights
If you do, we can remove your account without warning.
Reports and blocking
You can block anyone, and you can report someone who sends you something that
breaks these terms. Every report is reviewed promptly by a person, and if
someone has broken these terms, we remove their account. No report is acted
on automatically.
If we remove your account and you think we got it wrong, email us and we’ll
take another look.
What you send
What you send is yours. It’s end-to-end encrypted, so we can’t read it, and
you give us only the permission we need to store and deliver it, and to review it
if someone reports it. You’re
responsible for what you send, and for having the right to
send it.
Messages disappear when their timer runs out, and Tempo protects chats from
screenshots. The people you send things to can still copy your messages or
save your photos, and Tempo tells you when they do. Parcels are meant to be
saved, so saving what’s in one doesn’t notify you. And anyone can photograph a
screen, so only send what you’d be comfortable with them keeping.
Ending your account
You can delete your account in Settings at any time. An account whose phone
hasn’t connected to Tempo in a year is deleted, after reminders. We can suspend
or remove an account that breaks these terms, or when the law requires it. We
may also change Tempo or stop offering parts of it.
No guarantees
We work hard to keep Tempo running and secure, but it’s provided “as is”,
without warranties of any kind, as far as the law allows. We can’t promise it
will always be available or free of bugs.
Liability
As far as the law allows, Arepo Studios LLC isn’t liable for indirect or
consequential damages, or for lost messages or data, and our total liability
to you is limited to $100. Some places don’t allow these limits, so they may
not apply to you.
App Store
If you downloaded Tempo from the App Store, Apple’s standard license
agreement also applies. Apple isn’t responsible for Tempo or for supporting
it; we are.
Law
These terms are governed by the laws of Texas and the United States. If you
live in the EU or UK, you also keep the protections your country’s laws give
you. If any part of these terms can’t be enforced, the rest
still applies.
Changes
When we change these terms, we’ll update the date at the top. For bigger
changes, we’ll also let you know in the app. If you keep using Tempo after a
change, you accept the new terms.
