Fotofren Terms of Service
Last updated: 15. february 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and Fotofren / Nesset Film AS (“we”, “our”, or “Fotofren”) governing your use of the Fotofren service at app.fotofren.com (the “Service”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. What Fotofren is
Fotofren is a photo-sharing platform that lets you create private groups, upload photos, add captions, and comment with other members of each group. Access to the Service may be restricted by a waitlist or by invitation. We provide the Service “as is” within the scope of these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
2. Your account
- Eligibility. You must be at least 16 years old (or the age of consent in your country, if higher) and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement to use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation.
- Registration. You must provide accurate and complete information when you register. You are responsible for keeping your password and account secure. Notify us promptly if you suspect unauthorised access.
- One account. You may not create more than one account for yourself unless we explicitly allow it. Sharing accounts with others is not permitted where it would circumvent access controls (e.g. waitlist or invite limits).
3. Acceptable use
You agree to use the Service only in accordance with these Terms and applicable law. You must not:
- Illegal or harmful conduct: Use the Service for any illegal purpose or in a way that violates any law, or to harass, abuse, threaten, defame, or harm others.
- Infringement: Upload, post, or share content that infringes anyone’s intellectual property rights (e.g. copyright, trademark) or other rights (e.g. privacy, publicity).
- Impersonation: Impersonate another person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation.
- Security and abuse: Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service, other users’ accounts, or our systems; introduce malware; circumvent security or access controls; or overload or disrupt the Service.
- Scraping and automation: Use bots, scrapers, or other automated means to access or collect data from the Service unless we have given you written permission.
- Spam and invites: Use the invite or group features to send unsolicited messages or to add people to groups without their consent.
We may suspend or terminate your account and remove content if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms or applicable law, or if we are required to do so by law.
4. Content you upload (your responsibility)
- Ownership. You keep ownership of the content you upload (photos, captions, comments). You are solely responsible for that content and for ensuring you have the right to upload it and to grant us the licence below.
- Licence to us. To operate the Service, we need the right to store, display, and transmit your content to you and to other members of the groups you choose. You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to use, host, store, reproduce, modify (only as needed to provide the Service, e.g. thumbnails or format conversion), and display your content solely for the purpose of providing and improving the Service. This licence continues for as long as your content is stored with us, and for a limited time thereafter to allow deletion and backup procedures.
- No guarantee of backup. We are not a backup service. You are responsible for keeping your own copies of important content.
- Moderation in groups. Group owners may hide photos or comments from other members. We may remove content or suspend accounts when we reasonably believe there is a breach of these Terms, illegal content, or a risk to others, or when required by law. We do not have an obligation to monitor all content, but we may do so.
5. Our intellectual property
The Service (including its design, software, branding, and documentation) is owned by us or our licensors. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works of the Service or our branding except as necessary to use the Service in accordance with these Terms. “Fotofren” and related names and logos are our trademarks (or our licensors’).
6. Privacy and data
Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your personal data, including under the GDPR. By using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the Privacy Policy.
7. Disclaimers
- “As is”. The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
- No professional advice. Nothing in the Service constitutes legal, technical, or other professional advice. You rely on the Service at your own risk.
8. Limitation of liability
- Exclusion of indirect damage. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we (and our affiliates, directors, employees, and agents) shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service or these Terms.
- Cap. Our total liability for any claims arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or, if you have paid nothing, fifty euros (€50) or the equivalent in local currency.
- Mandatory law. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages or warranties. In those jurisdictions, our liability will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.
9. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless us and our affiliates, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Service, (b) your content, (c) your breach of these Terms or applicable law, or (d) your violation of any third party’s rights. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you; you will cooperate with us in that defence.
10. Termination
- By you. You may stop using the Service at any time. You may delete your account via the Service (when available) or by contacting us. Deletion is subject to our Privacy Policy and data retention practices.
- By us. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, or discontinue the Service as a whole, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms, for legal or regulatory reasons, or for operational reasons (e.g. security, abuse prevention). Where reasonable and not required by law to act immediately, we will try to give you advance notice.
- Effect of termination. On termination, your right to use the Service ceases. We may delete or retain your content and data in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 4–5, 7–9, and 11–12) will survive termination.
11. Changes to the Service and these Terms
- Service changes. We may change, suspend, or discontinue features of the Service at any time. We will try to give notice of material changes where practical.
- Terms changes. We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms on the Service and update the “Last updated” and “Effective” dates. If changes are material (especially to your rights or obligations), we will notify you by email or a prominent notice in the Service before they take effect, where required by law. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service and may delete your account.
12. General
- Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other policies we publish for the Service, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements or understandings.
- Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
- No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not waive that right or provision.
- Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, sale, or restructuring.
- Governing law and venue. These Terms are governed by the laws of Norway, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Norway, with Oslo as the legal venue, unless mandatory law requires otherwise.
- Language. These Terms are written in English. A Norwegian translation is provided in TERMS-OF-SERVICE-NO.md for convenience; in case of conflict, the English version shall prevail unless otherwise required by applicable law.
