These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Skimmio website and services (collectively, "Skimmio" or the "Service"). Please read them carefully. By using Skimmio, you agree to these Terms.
1. Acceptance of terms
By accessing or using Skimmio, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service.
2. Description of service
Skimmio is a web-based article monitoring service that allows users to track websites, RSS feeds, newsrooms, and other online sources; discover new articles and links from those sources; and organize, filter, tag, save, and review that content. Skimmio is a monitoring and discovery tool. Skimmio does not own, control, or operate the third-party publishers or websites that appear in the Service, and it does not create or endorse the content those publishers produce.
3. Accounts
To use most features of Skimmio, you must create an account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs through your account. You agree to notify us promptly of any unauthorized use. Skimmio is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to keep your account secure.
4. Acceptable use
You agree to use Skimmio only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not violate the rights of others. You may not:
- Use Skimmio for any illegal or unauthorized purpose
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its systems
- Interfere with or disrupt the Service, servers, or networks
- Circumvent security or technical restrictions
- Use automated methods to abuse, scrape, or overload the Service beyond what is reasonably permitted through normal use
- Upload, transmit, or distribute malware, viruses, malicious code, or harmful content
- Use the Service in a way that infringes or violates third-party intellectual property, privacy, or other rights
5. Third-party content
Articles, headlines, links, excerpts, websites, and other content displayed through Skimmio may belong to third-party publishers. Skimmio does not endorse, guarantee, or verify the accuracy, availability, legality, completeness, or reliability of third-party content. You should consult the original publisher or source for authoritative information.
6. Intellectual property
Skimmio retains all rights to its own software, branding, interface, design, and original materials. Third-party publishers retain their respective rights to their content. Use of the Service does not transfer any intellectual property rights to you.
7. Service availability
We may modify, improve, suspend, or discontinue functionality at any time. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or available at all times. Because monitored websites and feeds can change their structure, restrict automated access, or become unavailable, we do not guarantee that every source or article will always be successfully detected or displayed.
8. No professional advice
Information discovered through Skimmio is for informational purposes only. It should not be treated as legal, medical, financial, investment, or other professional advice. Always consult a qualified professional before acting on any information you find through the Service.
9. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account or access to the Service at any time if we believe you have violated these Terms or misused the Service. You may stop using the Service at any time. Upon termination, your right to use the Service immediately ceases.
10. Disclaimers
The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the extent permitted by law, Skimmio disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be secure, error-free, or uninterrupted, or that any defects will be corrected.
11. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, Skimmio and its representatives will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to your use of the Service, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be waived under applicable law. The laws of some jurisdictions may provide rights that cannot be waived.
12. Changes to terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date and may provide notice when appropriate. Your continued use of Skimmio after changes become effective means you accept the updated Terms.
13. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of California, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Service will be resolved in the courts located in that jurisdiction.
