1. App Sorteos Service Overview
The Service provides a digital marketing management tool that enables users to create and manage social media contests.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least [18] years old to use the Service. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least [18] years old; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service; and (c) your registration and your use of the Service is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations. If you are an entity, organization, or company, the individual accepting these Terms on your behalf represents and warrants that they have authority to bind you to these Terms and references to you herein (and all of your obligations hereunder) will refer to such entity and any individual using the Service on such entity’s behalf.
3. Accounts and Registration
To access most features of the Service, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your name, email address, or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate and up-to-date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to provide a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. If you believe that your account is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at [email protected]
4. General Payment Terms
Premium features of the Service will require you to pay fees upon registering for the applicable premium service. Before you pay any fees, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. All fees are in U.S. Dollars and are non-refundable. Fees vary based on the plan, with different pricing schemes for individual users and organizations.
4.1 Price
App Sorteos reserves the right to determine pricing for the Service. App Sorteos will make reasonable efforts to keep pricing information published on the website up to date. We encourage you to check our website periodically for current pricing information, located here: https://app-sorteos.com/en/plans. App Sorteos may change the fees for any feature of the Service, including additional fees or charges, if App Sorteos gives you advance notice of changes before they apply. App Sorteos, at its sole discretion, may make promotional offers with different features and different pricing to any of App Sorteos’s customers. These promotional offers, unless made to you, will not apply to your offer or these Terms.
4.2 Authorization
You authorize App Sorteos to charge all sums for the orders that you make and any level of Service you select as described in these Terms or published by App Sorteos, to the payment method specified in your account. If you pay any fees with a credit card, App Sorteos may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase.
4.3 Subscription Service and Cancellation Policy
The Service may include automatically recurring payments for periodic charges (“Subscription Service”). If you activate a Subscription Service, you authorize App Sorteos to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or your account, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date for the accrued sums. The “Subscription Billing Date” is the date when you purchase your first subscription to the Service. For information on the “Subscription Fee”, please see our Pricing page. Your account will be charged automatically on the Subscription Billing Date all applicable fees for the next subscription period. The subscription will continue unless and until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic Subscription Fee to your account. We will bill the periodic Subscription Fee to the payment method you provide to us during registration (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information). You may cancel the Subscription Service by accessing your account settings at: www.app-sorteos.com/settings/billing and clicking on the "Cancel Plan" option or by contacting us at: [email protected]
Seasonal discounts can be applied on subscription plans that information is available on the https://app-sorteos.com/en/plans page. These seasonal discounts can be applied to the user plans automatically during the first subscription or they can be entered manually during the periods allowed by the system. For instance, for a package subscription of 14 USD, discounted subscriptions can be started with a pricing of 9 USD and valid for 1 month. If the discount amount is for 1 month, the user continues to pay for the plans to which he is a subscriber, without discount. App Sorteos added automatic discount coupons to the system between 01.02.2022 - 01.04.2022. Subscribers can start their subscriptions through the discounted plans.
4.4 Delinquent Accounts
App Sorteos may suspend or terminate access to the Service for any account for which any amount is due but unpaid. In addition to the amount due for the Service, a delinquent account will be charged with fees or charges that are incidental to any chargeback or collection of any the unpaid amount, including collection fees.

8. User Contest
8.1 Limited License Grant to Other Users
By providing User Contest to or via the Service to other users of the Service, you grant those users a non-exclusive license to access and use that User Contest as permitted by these Terms and the functionality of the Service.
8.2 User Contest Representations and Warranties
App Sorteos disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Contest. You are solely responsible for your User Contest and the consequences of providing User Contest via the Service. By providing User Contest via the Service, you affirm, represent, and warrant that:
a) you are the creator and owner of the User Contest, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to authorize App Sorteos and users of the Service to use and distribute your User Contest as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in this Section, in the manner contemplated by App Sorteos, the Service, and these Terms;
b) your User Contest, and the use of your User Contest as contemplated by these Terms, does not and will not: (i) infringe, violate, or misappropriate any third party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right; (ii) slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other person; or (iii) cause App Sorteos to violate any law or regulation; and
c) your User Contest could not be deemed by a reasonable person to be objectionable, profane, indecent, pornographic, harassing, threatening, embarrassing, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate.
d) your User Contest does not and will not contain Hateful Contest, a Threat of Physical Harm, or Harassment
The following serves as a guide to help illustrate generally the types of Contest that fall within the scope of App Sorteos’s policy on Hateful Contest, Threats of Physical Harm, and Harassment, but is not exhaustive. This Section 8.4(d) does not limit any of our other rights or remedies provided herein. For the avoidance of doubt, your User Contest may not include, and App Sorteos may remove or refuse to create or manage any User Contest that violates the terms or policies of any third party platform with which App Sorteos’s Services integrate or interoperate.
Hateful Contest includes:
Any statement, image, photograph, or other Contest that in our sole judgment could be reasonably perceived to harm, threaten, demean, promote the harassment of, promote the intimidation of, or promote the abuse of others for any reason, including by reason of race, gender or gender identity, national origin, sexual orientation, religion, or otherwise.
A Threat of Physical Harm includes:
Any statement, photograph, content, or other Contest that in our sole judgment could be reasonably perceived to threaten, advocate, or incite physical harm to or violence against others, including references to current or historical figures.
Harassment includes:
• Revealing someone’s personal information, also known as “doxxing”. • Online stalking, and bullying. • Wishes for physical harm directed at a person or persons. • Incitement of others to any of the previous items. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts and remove individual posts which contain Hateful Contest, a Threat of Physical Harm, or Harassment. We also may suspend or terminate your account if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you are either: • An organization which has publicly stated or acknowledged that its goals, objectives, positions, or founding tenets include statements or principles that could be reasonably perceived to advocate, encourage, or sponsor Hateful Contest, Harassment, or A Threat of Physical Harm. • A person or organization that has acted in such a way as could be reasonably perceived to support, condone, encourage, or represent Hateful Contest, Harassment, or A Threat of Physical Harm. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right to screen, remove, edit, or block any User Contest we find in violation of the Terms or that we find, in our sole discretion to be otherwise objectionable, at our sole discretion.
8.3 User Contest Disclaimer
We are under no obligation to edit or control User Contest that you or other users create or publish, and will not be in any way responsible or liable for User Contest. App Sorteos may, however, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any User Contest that in our sole judgment violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable. You understand that when using the Service you will be exposed to User Contest from a variety of sources and acknowledge that User Contest may be inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable. You agree to waive, and do waive, any legal or equitable right or remedy you have or may have against App Sorteos with respect to User Contest. If notified by a user or Contest owner that User Contest allegedly does not conform to these Terms, we may investigate the allegation and determine in our sole discretion whether to remove the User Contest, which we reserve the right to do at any time and without notice. For clarity, App Sorteos does not permit copyright-infringing activities on the Service.
8.4 Monitoring Contest
App Sorteos does not control and does not have any obligation to monitor: (a) User Contest; (ii) any Contest made available by third parties; or (iii) the use of the Service by its users. You acknowledge and agree that App Sorteos reserves the right to, and may from time to time, monitor any and all information transmitted or received through the Service for operational and other purposes. If at any time App Sorteos chooses to monitor the Contest, App Sorteos still assumes no responsibility or liability for Contest or any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of Contest. During monitoring, information may be examined, recorded, copied, and used in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
