Terms of Service

1. Agreement

By using Time Pass at time-pass.app you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, do not use the site. These terms work alongside our Privacy Policy, which forms part of this agreement.

2. Who may use Time Pass

You must be at least 13 years old, or older if the law where you live sets a higher age for consenting to online services. You may hold one account. You are responsible for what happens under your account and for keeping your password to yourself.

Signing in is optional for reading the wall in part and for playing the games. It is required for posting, replying, listening to voice confessions, reading confessions in full, making friends, and sending messages.

3. What you may not post

You are responsible for everything you post. Do not post:

A voice confession is subject to exactly the same rules as a written one. Recording someone else without their knowledge and posting it is not a confession; it is a violation of this section.

4. Anonymity is from other users, not from us

Posting anonymously hides your identity from everyone reading the wall. It does not hide it from site administrators, who can see the account behind any post. This exists so the rules in section 3 can actually be enforced. Do not treat an anonymous post as untraceable, and do not use it as cover for anything you would not attach your name to.

5. Moderation

We may hide or delete any content, and suspend or terminate any account, at our discretion, with or without notice — including where we believe these terms have been broken, or where content puts someone at risk.

Hiding removes a confession from the wall and is reversible. Deleting is permanent and also removes the confession’s replies, its read history, and the points it earned.

We are not obliged to review everything posted, and content appearing on the site is not an endorsement of it. If you see something that breaks these rules, tell us.

6. Your content, and what you let us do with it

You keep ownership of everything you post. By posting, you give us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, display and distribute that content on Time Pass, for as long as you keep it on the site. This is only what is needed to show your confession to other people; it does not let us sell your writing or use it elsewhere.

Delete your content or your account and that licence ends, subject to the retention realities described in the Privacy Policy.

7. Points

Points are awarded automatically for posting a confession, writing a reply, having your confession read by someone new, playing a game, and inviting someone who joins on your link. They are recorded by the site itself; nothing you do in your browser can add points directly.

The current rates are shown on the Earnings tab of your panel and are the authoritative version. At the time of writing they are 2,500 for a confession, 60 for each new reader of it, 400 for a reply, 250 for a game played, 5,000 when someone signs up on your invite link, and a further 10,000 once that person has earned 100,000 points of their own.

To be plain about what points are:

Deleting a confession does not take back the points it already earned. Deleting your account does — the balance goes with it, unpaid.

8. Payouts

Points above a minimum can be exchanged for a payment in cryptocurrency. The exchange rate and the minimum are shown on the Earnings tab and are set by us. At the time of writing, 1,000,000 points is worth 1.00 USD and the minimum payout is 5.00 USD.

How a payout works, end to end:

Some things you should understand before requesting one:

None of this makes Time Pass a job, an investment, or a source of income you should rely on. It is a share of advertising money for writing that other people actually read, and the numbers involved are small.

9. Fair use of the site

Do not attempt to farm points through automation, scripted requests, multiple accounts, invites to accounts you control, or by manufacturing views of your own content. Do not attempt to bypass rate limits, extract data in bulk, probe the site’s security, or interfere with anyone else’s use of it. Accounts doing any of this may be removed without warning, along with their points and any pending payout.

10. Messages and friends

You can only message people who have accepted your friend request. Messages are stored in plain text and are readable by site administrators where moderation requires it. Treat them as private from other users, not as private from us.

11. Availability

Time Pass is provided as it is, with no guarantee of uptime, and no guarantee that content will be preserved. It is a personal project running on free-tier infrastructure. Features may change or disappear. Keep your own copy of anything you would be upset to lose.

12. Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Time Pass and its operator are not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the site, from content posted by other users, or from the site being unavailable or losing data. Nothing here limits liability that cannot legally be limited — including for death, personal injury, or fraud.

13. Ending it

You can delete your account at any time from your profile. We may terminate an account for breach of these terms. Sections 6, 7, 11 and 12 survive termination.

14. Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be dated at the top and announced on the site. Continuing to use Time Pass after a change means you accept it.

15. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the site operator resides, and the courts of that jurisdiction have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.
