1. Acceptance of Terms
By using PollXYZ ("the App"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the App. We may update these Terms at any time — continued use of the App after an update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to use PollXYZ. By registering, you confirm that you are 18 or older. We do not knowingly permit users under 18 to register. If we discover that a user is under 18, we will immediately delete their account and all associated data. If you believe someone under 18 has registered, contact us at privacy@pollxyz.com.
3. Your Account
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Do not share your password. Notify us immediately at legal@pollxyz.com if you suspect unauthorised access. We are not liable for losses resulting from unauthorised use of your account.
4. Usernames & Identity
Your username is your public identity on PollXYZ. It can be your real name or any pseudonym — we do not verify it and make no attempt to do so. You may not impersonate real people, organisations, or brands in a misleading way, and you may not use a username that is offensive or harassing.
5. Acceptable Use
You agree not to: post content that is unlawful, threatening, harassing, hateful, or defamatory; manipulate votes through bots, scripts, or multiple accounts; attempt to reverse-engineer or compromise the platform; scrape or harvest user data; or post spam or unsolicited commercial content. Violations may result in immediate account termination.
6. Poll Content & Community
All polls, options, and comments are subject to our community guidelines. We reserve the right to remove content that violates these guidelines without notice. You are solely responsible for the content you create. By submitting content, you grant PollXYZ a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to display and distribute that content within the platform.
7. Voting Integrity
Each user may vote once per poll. Vote manipulation — including using multiple accounts, automated tools, or coordinated inauthentic behaviour — is strictly prohibited and may result in account termination and removal of affected votes.
8. Anonymous Voting
When you choose to vote anonymously, your username is not visible to other users or poll creators. PollXYZ retains internal identifiers for fraud prevention and platform integrity. Anonymous votes still count toward aggregate results and demographic breakdowns.
9. Intellectual Property
The PollXYZ app, its design, branding, and original content are the property of PollXYZ and its licensors. You may not reproduce, copy, modify, or distribute any part of the platform without written permission.
10. Disclaimers
The App is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service. Poll results are user-generated and do not represent the views or opinions of PollXYZ.
11. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, PollXYZ shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of or inability to use the platform.
12. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account at our sole discretion, without prior notice, for conduct that violates these Terms or is harmful to other users or the platform. You may delete your account at any time via Settings → Delete account.
13. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by applicable law. Any disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration or in the courts of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in these Terms limits your statutory rights as a consumer.
