These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Fikir mobile application ("Fikir," "the Service," "we," "us," or "our"). By creating an account or using Fikir, you agree to these Terms.

If you don't agree, please don't use Fikir.

For questions, email team@fikirdating.app.

1. Eligibility

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules.

3. Acceptable Use

You agree NOT to:

Violation of these terms may result in immediate account suspension or termination.

4. User-Generated Content

You retain ownership of content you post on Fikir (photos, moments, messages, etc.).

By posting content, you grant Fikir a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to host, store, display, and distribute that content solely for the purpose of operating the Service.

You represent and warrant that:

We do NOT use your content to train AI or machine learning models, for advertising, or for any purpose outside of operating Fikir.

5. Content Moderation

Fikir reserves the right to:

We use both automated systems and human review to enforce these Terms.

If your moment or content is hidden or your account is suspended:

Repeated violations may result in permanent account termination without refund.

Reporting

You can report another user's profile or moment content using the in-app reporting tools. We review reports and take appropriate action, which may include hiding content, suspending the reported user's moments, or terminating their account.

Blocking

You can block another user. Blocking is symmetric — blocked users cannot see you in feeds, and you cannot see them. You can manage your block list in your Profile tab under Blocked users.

6. Payments and Purchases

Lemons and Golden Lemons

Lemons and Golden Lemons are in-app credits used for sending tosses (a way to express interest in another user).

For refund requests, contact Apple directly through your App Store account. We cannot process refunds outside of Apple's system.

Subscriptions and Cancellation

If Fikir offers subscription products in the future, the terms of each subscription (price, renewal, cancellation) will be disclosed at purchase. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled.

To cancel any Apple-managed subscription on iOS:

Cancellation must be completed at least 24 hours before the next renewal date to avoid being charged for the next period. Fikir cannot cancel Apple-managed subscriptions on your behalf.

7. Account Termination

Termination by You

You can delete your account at any time:

After deletion:

Termination by Us

We may suspend or terminate your account if:

We will provide notice where reasonable, except in cases of urgent safety concerns.

8. Disclaimers

Fikir is provided "as is" and "as available." We make no warranties about:

You are responsible for evaluating other users before meeting them. Fikir does not conduct criminal background checks on users. Use caution when meeting anyone you've connected with online.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Fikir and the Operator shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service, including but not limited to:

Our total liability for any claim related to the Service shall not exceed the amount you have paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or $100, whichever is greater.

Some jurisdictions don't allow limitations on certain warranties or liability, so portions of this section may not apply to you.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Fikir, the Operator, and any associated parties from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from:

11. Arbitration Agreement and Dispute Resolution

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. THIS SECTION REQUIRES YOU TO RESOLVE MOST DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND TO WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU MAY OPT OUT WITHIN 30 DAYS, AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 11.6 BELOW.

11.1 Agreement to Arbitrate

Except as set forth in Section 11.2 (Exceptions), you and Ahadu Lab LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to (a) these Terms, (b) your use of Fikir, (c) any subscription, in-app purchase, or other transaction, or (d) the relationship between you and us — including disputes regarding the validity, scope, or enforceability of this arbitration provision — shall be resolved exclusively through binding individual arbitration, rather than in court.

This arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq. (the "FAA"). The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising from these Terms.

11.2 Exceptions to Arbitration

The following claims are NOT subject to arbitration and may be brought in court:

11.3 Class Action Waiver

YOU AND AHADU LAB LLC AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING.

Unless both parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative, class, or consolidated proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief (monetary, injunctive, or declaratory) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph's limitations as to a particular claim, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court — the remainder of this Section 11 remains in effect.

11.4 Arbitration Administrator and Rules

Arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules"), as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.

If AAA is unable or unwilling to administer the arbitration consistent with these Terms, the parties will mutually select an alternative reputable arbitration provider (such as JAMS).

11.5 Arbitration Location, Costs, and Procedure

11.6 30-Day Opt-Out Right

You may opt out of this arbitration agreement. To do so, you must send written notice of your decision within 30 days after the date you first accept these Terms to either:

Your opt-out notice must include your full name, the email address linked to your Fikir account, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration agreement. Opting out will not affect any other provision of these Terms, including the class-action waiver in Section 11.3, which applies regardless of whether disputes are resolved in arbitration or in court.

If you opt out, disputes between you and Ahadu Lab LLC will be resolved under Section 11.7 below.

11.7 Governing Law and Forum for Non-Arbitrated Claims

For any dispute not subject to arbitration (either because it falls within Section 11.2 or because you have opted out under Section 11.6):

11.8 Severability and Survival

If any provision of this Section 11 is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force. This Section 11 survives termination of these Terms and your relationship with Fikir.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do:

If you disagree with any changes, your only remedy is to stop using the Service and delete your account.

13. Severability and Waiver

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full effect.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.

14. Apple App Store Additional Terms (iOS users)

If you downloaded Fikir from the Apple App Store, the following additional terms apply, as required by Apple's App Store Licensed Application End User License Agreement:
