Scripta
Terms of Service

Terms.

The rules of the shelf — what you agree to when you read here, and the line we will never let anyone cross.

Last updated 5 June 2026 v1.0 Plain language

Scripta is a quiet place to keep what you've read and share it with people who care. Keeping it that way asks one thing of everyone: treat each other well.

01.

Accepting these terms

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are an agreement between you and Scripta, an independent iOS application designed and developed by Vittorio Palpati, based in Italy. By creating an account, or by downloading, accessing, or using the app, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree, please do not use Scripta. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between us regarding the app and replace any earlier understanding.

— use the app, and these rules apply. it's that simple.

02.

Who may use it

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account and use Scripta. By signing up you confirm that you meet this requirement and that the information you give us is accurate.

You are responsible for keeping your account credentials safe and for everything that happens under your account. One person, one account — you may not share, sell, or transfer it.

03.

Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive behaviour

Scripta includes social features — reading circles ("Jams"), shared highlights, comments, profiles, and direct messages. Anything you post or send is your responsibility. We operate a strict zero-tolerance policy for objectionable content and for users who abuse others.

Strictly prohibited

You may not post, share, send, or upload any content, and you may not behave in any way, that:

  • harasses, bullies, threatens, stalks, or intimidates any person;
  • constitutes hate speech or attacks people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or any similar ground;
  • is sexually explicit or pornographic, or sexualises minors in any way;
  • depicts or glorifies graphic violence, self-harm, or dangerous acts;
  • is illegal, promotes illegal activity, or infringes anyone's intellectual-property or privacy rights;
  • is spam, a scam, or deceptive, or impersonates another person, brand, or entity.

There is no warning quota. Users who post objectionable content, or who abuse, harass, or endanger other users, will have that content removed and may have their account suspended or permanently terminated, at our discretion and without refund.

By using Scripta you also agree that there is no tolerance for abusive users: repeated or serious violations end your access to the community for good.

— harass someone, and you're gone. no exceptions.

04.

Your content, and your responsibility

You keep ownership of the highlights, notes, reviews, images, and messages you create ("Your Content"). We do not claim to own them. You are solely responsible for Your Content and for making sure you have the right to share it.

To run the service, you grant Scripta a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, and display Your Content for the limited purpose of operating, providing, and improving the app — for example, showing a shared highlight to the other members of a Jam you joined. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies already distributed to other users or retained in routine backups for a short period.

You agree not to misuse the service: no reverse-engineering, no scraping, no attempts to break security, overload our systems, or access data that isn't yours.

05.

Reporting, moderation & enforcement

We give every member the tools to keep the community safe, and we use them ourselves.

Report
Any post, comment, message, or user can be reported from inside the app, in a few taps, with a reason.
Block
You can block any user. Once blocked, they cannot contact you or see your activity, and you won't see theirs. You can unblock at any time.
Review
We review every valid report and act on it within 24 hours — removing content and suspending or removing the accounts responsible where our rules are broken.

We may remove any content or suspend any account that violates these Terms, with or without notice, and we filter for objectionable material. Moderation decisions are made in good faith to protect the community.

— report it, and we act within 24 hours. always.

06.

Suspension & termination

You can stop using Scripta and delete your account at any time from Settings → Privacy & Data → Delete account. When you do, your content is removed as described in the Privacy Policy.

We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if you breach these Terms — especially the zero-tolerance rules above — or if we are required to by law. Sections that by their nature should survive (the content licence already granted, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and governing law) continue to apply after termination.

07.

Disclaimers & limitation of liability

Scripta is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that content posted by other users is accurate or appropriate.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Scripta and its developer will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for any loss of data, arising from your use of — or inability to use — the app. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have as a consumer that cannot be waived under the law of your country of residence.

08.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Italy, the developer's place of establishment, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and without depriving you of the mandatory consumer protections of the country where you live. The App Store's own Terms of Use also apply to your download and use of the app.

09.

Changes to these terms

If we make material changes, we will notify you inside the app before they take effect. Continued use after the change constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to a change, you can stop using the app and delete your account.
