Terms of Service

Last updated: 13 September 2026

1. Agreement

These Terms apply when you use ComPearApple, including the Android and iOS apps, our information and support website, account features, lists, ratings, comparisons, Spaces, Sessions, social features, notifications, and related services.

By using ComPearApple, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use ComPearApple.

2. Who We Are

ComPearApple is operated by Matthew Harris, trading as ComPearApple, based in Bradford, England, United Kingdom.

Questions about these Terms can be sent to support@compearapple.com.

3. Eligibility

ComPearApple is not intended for anyone under 16. By using ComPearApple, you confirm that you are at least 16 years old.

4. What ComPearApple Does

ComPearApple helps users create, rate, rank, compare, and share lists across categories such as movies, TV shows, games, books, music, food, names, anime, manga, podcasts, and related entertainment or culture data.

ComPearApple rankings, comparisons, recommendations, and displayed information are for personal entertainment, discovery, and organisation. They are not professional, financial, medical, legal, nutritional, safety, or other regulated advice.

5. Accounts

You are responsible for keeping your account secure and for activity on your account. You must provide accurate information and must not impersonate another person or organisation or create accounts for abusive, fraudulent, or unlawful purposes.

You must not choose a username, profile image, banner image, or profile information that impersonates another person or organisation, infringes someone else's rights, misleads users, or violates these Terms.

6. Personal Use

ComPearApple is provided for personal, non-commercial use unless we agree otherwise in writing.

You must not sell access to ComPearApple, resell ComPearApple data, use ComPearApple to operate a competing service, or use ComPearApple content, rankings, lists, comparisons, or data for commercial purposes without our written permission.

7. Acceptable Use

You must not use ComPearApple to post, upload, share, or transmit content that is unlawful, abusive, hateful, sexually explicit, harassing, threatening, misleading, spammy, infringing, or otherwise harmful.

You must not misuse ComPearApple, interfere with its operation, scrape or overload the service, attempt to bypass security controls, access data you are not allowed to access, or use the app to harm other users or third parties.

You must not use bots, scrapers, crawlers, automated scripts, bulk export tools, or similar methods to access, copy, harvest, monitor, or extract data from ComPearApple.

You must not bypass access controls, reverse engineer private APIs, overload the service, or access data you are not allowed to access.

8. User Content And App Data

You keep ownership of content that you create and upload to ComPearApple, such as comments, uploaded banners, Space pictures, and original text you add.

ComPearApple owns the app, website, software, design, branding, database structure, ranking systems, recommendation systems, and other parts of the ComPearApple service.

You give us permission to host, store, display, process and share your content as needed to provide and protect the features you use, subject to your visibility choices and our Privacy Policy. This includes using ratings and activity to provide recommendations and comparisons. This permission does not transfer ownership of your content or give us blanket permission to use private content in advertising.

When content or an account is deleted, retention exceptions and copies already obtained by other users are handled as described in the Privacy Policy. This does not override your data protection rights.

9. Sharing

Some features allow lists, profiles, or other content to be shared publicly within ComPearApple, with friends, or externally through share links or images.

You are responsible for choosing the visibility and sharing options that match what you want to share. Uploaded banner and Space-image files currently use public URLs, which may be accessed independently of the surrounding screen; do not upload sensitive information.

10. Content Moderation

We may remove, hide, restrict, or edit user content if we reasonably believe it violates these Terms, infringes someone else's rights, creates risk for users or ComPearApple, or is otherwise unlawful or harmful.

We may also limit sharing, restrict account features, suspend accounts, or delete accounts where needed to protect users, enforce these Terms, comply with law, or protect the service.

11. Reports And Blocking

ComPearApple may provide reporting, blocking, moderation, or safety tools. If these tools are not available or do not solve the issue, you can contact support@compearapple.com.

We do not guarantee that every report will result in action, but we may review reports and take action where we think it is appropriate.

12. Third-Party Content And Accuracy

ComPearApple displays information, images, ratings, rankings, descriptions, and metadata from third-party sources and APIs.

We do not guarantee that third-party content is accurate, complete, current, available, lawful to use in every context, or suitable for your purpose. Content may be missing, incorrect, delayed, removed, rate-limited, or changed by the relevant provider.

ComPearApple rankings, recommendations, comparisons, and generated views depend on available data and user activity. They may not be accurate, complete, fair, or suitable for every use.

13. Third-Party Outages And Licence Changes

ComPearApple depends on third-party platforms, APIs, licences, app stores, hosting providers, and content sources. These providers can experience outages or change their licences, policies, prices or availability. This does not remove our obligations to you under consumer law.

We may change, limit, remove, or replace content categories, integrations, features, data sources, images, metadata, or links if needed because of technical, legal, commercial, licensing, safety, or provider requirements.

14. Changes To The Service

We may change features, categories, integrations or availability to address security, legal or provider requirements, fix problems or improve the service. We will explain material changes and give reasonable notice where practicable. Changes to paid features remain subject to your purchase terms and statutory rights.

We will try to avoid unnecessary disruption, but ComPearApple depends on third-party platforms, APIs, licences, hosting providers, and app stores, so some changes may be outside our control.

15. Premium Features

ComPearApple may offer paid premium features. Premium may include higher limits, extra tools, or other benefits described in the app at the time.

Premium features, limits, pricing, availability, and benefits may change over time. We will not intentionally remove paid access during an active subscription period without a reasonable replacement, refund, or other remedy where required by law.

16. Payments, Cancellations, And Refunds

When paid purchases are enabled, payments are processed through Google Play or Apple. RevenueCat helps us manage subscription status; we do not receive payment-card details. Available benefits, price, billing period and renewal terms will be shown before purchase.

Subscriptions renew according to the terms shown by the store unless cancelled. Manage or cancel them in the store account used to purchase. Deleting your ComPearApple account or uninstalling the app does not cancel a subscription. See Support for navigation instructions. Request refunds through the relevant store or contact support for help. Your statutory rights are unaffected.

17. Service Messages And Marketing

We may send you service, account, security, legal, and administrative messages about ComPearApple. These messages are part of providing the service and may be sent even if you opt out of marketing.

We may send marketing or promotional messages if you have opted in or where the law otherwise allows it. You can unsubscribe from marketing messages where required by law.

18. Data Export

Where available, ComPearApple may provide tools to export or copy your lists, ratings, rankings, or account data. Export features may be limited by technical, legal, licensing, security, or anti-abuse requirements.

If an export tool is not available, you can contact support@compearapple.com to make a privacy or data access request, or email hello@compearapple.com. These tools and their limits do not restrict your statutory data protection rights.

19. Responsibility For Your Content

You are responsible for the content you add to ComPearApple and for making sure you have the rights needed to upload, post, or share it.

If your content or conduct causes a legal claim, complaint, loss, or cost because you breached these Terms or the law, you may be responsible for that claim, loss, or cost to the extent allowed by law.

20. Suspension And Termination

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your account if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, created risk for other users, misused the service, infringed someone else's rights, or used ComPearApple unlawfully or abusively.

You can request account deletion in Settings, Account controls, Delete account, or use our account deletion page without installing the app. The Privacy Policy describes deletion and retention exceptions. Contact support if you believe an account restriction or moderation decision is mistaken.

21. Availability And Disclaimers

ComPearApple is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We will try to provide a useful and reliable service, but we do not guarantee that ComPearApple will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that any content or feature will always remain available.

Nothing in these Terms affects legal rights that cannot be excluded under consumer law.

22. Limitation Of Liability

We are responsible for loss or damage that is a foreseeable result of our breach of these Terms or our failure to use reasonable care and skill. We are not responsible for losses that were not reasonably foreseeable. The service is supplied for personal use, so we do not accept liability for business losses arising from commercial use.

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or your statutory consumer rights.

23. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. If there is a dispute, the courts of England and Wales will have jurisdiction, except where consumer law gives you the right to bring a claim somewhere else.

24. Changes To These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will take reasonable steps to let users know, such as updating the effective date, showing an in-app notice, or sending an email where appropriate.

25. Advertising

Advertising may be enabled for eligible free accounts in the mobile apps. Premium accounts are exempt from app ad requests. Where required, consent and privacy choices are provided before advertising requests; see our Privacy Policy. These Terms do not replace consent where it is required.
