- be at least 18 years old or the age of majority to legally enter into a contract under the laws of your home country if that happens to be greater than 18; and

- agree to only use Pink-Filters.com to seek platonic, non-dating friendships.
We monitor for underage use and we will terminate, suspend or ask you to verify your Account if we have reason to believe that you may be underage.
You can create an Account via manual registration. We do not permit you to use another person’s Account or to share your Account with any other person.
We use a combination of automated systems, user reports and a team of moderators to monitor and review accounts and content to identify breaches of these Terms. We reserve the right at our sole discretion to terminate or suspend any Account, restrict access to Pink Filters, or make use of any operational, technological, legal or other means available to enforce the Terms (including without limitation blocking specific IP addresses).
You may not access, tamper with, or use non-public areas of the Site or our systems. Certain portions of the App may not be accessible if you have not registered for an Account.
YOU MUST CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP SUBSCRIPTION BEFORE YOU DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT TO AVOID BEING BILLED AFTER YOUR ACCOUNT IS DELETED.
You may delete your Account at any time from the “Account Status” page in the “My Account” section of Pink Filters. After you delete your account, your profile information, posts, and other content will be removed from the site, and the account is not recoverable . You may purchase a new membership if you wish to rejoin Pink Filters.
You may PAUSE your membership at any time from the “Manage Subscription” page when you are logged in. After you pause your account, your profile information, posts, and other content will be hidden from the site. You may resume your membership at at anytime from the “Manage Subscription” page when you are logged in. When a user resumes before their current transaction has expired, they will be billed again on the same day that their subscription was initially set up and will not experience any lapse in access. However, if the user resumes after the current transaction expires, then they will be billed immediately on that day and all future billings will happen on that new day (the user will experience a lapse in access if they resume after their last transaction expired). For example, if you pause your monthly subscription on the 15th, and it normally bills on the 1st of the month, and you then resume on the 20th, you will be billed again on the 1st. But, if you resume on the 3rd of the next month, you will be billed that day, and my new bill date will be every 3rd.

- content that you upload and provide (“Your Content”);

- use the services in a safe, inclusive and respectful manner and adhere to our Community Guidelines at all times.
You agree that you will not:

- misrepresent your identity, your age, your current or previous positions, qualifications or affiliations with a person or entity;
- disclose information that you do not have the consent to disclose;

- use the Site or Service in any deceptive, inauthentic or manipulative way, including engaging in conduct or distributing content relating to scams, spam, inauthentic profiles or commercial and promotional activity;
- submit appeals, reports, notices or complaints that are manifestly unfounded; or;
- develop, support or use software, devices, scripts, robots, other types of mobile code or any other means or processes (including crawlers, browser plugins and add-on or other technology) to scrape or otherwise exfiltrate from Pink Filters or its services, or otherwise copy profiles and other data from the services.
You can report any abuse or complain about Member Content by contacting us, outlining the abuse and/or complaint. You can also report a user directly from a profile or in chat by clicking the “Report” link. We reserve the right to investigate any possible violations of these Terms, any Pink Filters user’s rights, or any third-party rights and we may, in our sole discretion, immediately terminate any user’s right to use of the Pink Filters without prior notice, as set out further in Section 1 above, and/or remove any improper, infringing or otherwise unauthorized Member Content submitted to Pink Filters.
We don’t control any of the things our users say or do, so you are solely responsible for your interactions with other users of the App.
IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, SUCH AS IN RESPONSE TO MEMBER-GENERATED OR PRESS REPORTS OF SUSPECTED MISCONDUCT, WE MAY INVESTIGATE WHETHER A MEMBER HAS A CRIMINAL HISTORY, WHICH MAY, DEPENDING ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDE SEARCHING SEX OFFENDER REGISTRIES OR OTHER PUBLIC RECORDS. IF SUCH INVESTIGATIONS IDENTIFY A PERSON WITH A CRIMINAL CONVICTION, WE MAY USE AVAILABLE INFORMATION TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE PERSON IDENTIFIED BY THE INVESTIGATION IS THE SAME PERSON AS THE MEMBER ABOUT WHOM THE INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED. FOLLOWING ANY SUCH INVESTIGATION, WITH RESPECT TO ANY MEMBER THAT WE REASONABLY BELIEVES TO HAVE BEEN CONVICTED OF A SEX OFFENSE (SUCH AS SEXUAL ASSAULT OR SEXUAL HARASSMENT, AND INCLUDING ANY REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS), OR A CONVICTION FOR HUMAN TRAFFICKING, STALKING, KIDNAPPING, CHILD ABUSE, DOMESTIC ABUSE, MURDER, HATE CRIMES, OR TERRORISM OR VIOLENT EXTREMISM, WE MAY TAKE STEPS TO BLOCK THAT PERSON FROM USING THE SERVICE AND COMMUNICATING WITH OTHER MEMBERS OVER THE PLATFORM. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO BLOCK MEMBERS FOR OTHER OFFENSES, OR FOR OTHER VIOLATIONS OF THESE TERMS, OR FOR OTHER REASONS IN THEIR SOLE DISCRETION. CRIMINAL BACKGROUND INVESTIGATIONS, WHEN CONDUCTED, ARE NOT TYPICALLY UPDATED BY THE COMPANY. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE INVESTIGATIONS FOR CRIMINAL HISTORIES MAY BE CONDUCTED ON SOME MEMBERS, THEY ARE NOT FOOLPROOF AND MOST MEMBERS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE SUBJECT TO ANY FORM OF CHECK FOR CRIMINAL HISTORIES. ANY INVESTIGATIONS FOR CRIMINAL HISTORIES MAY GIVE MEMBERS A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY. THE CHECKS FOR CRIMINAL HISTORIES THAT WE MAY CONDUCT ARE NOT A PERFECT SAFETY SOLUTION. CRIMINALS MAY CIRCUMVENT EVEN THE MOST SOPHISTICATED SEARCH TECHNOLOGY. NOT ALL CRIMINAL RECORDS ARE PUBLIC IN ALL STATES AND NOT ALL DATABASES ARE UP TO DATE. ONLY PUBLICLY AVAILABLE CONVICTIONS ARE INCLUDED IN CHECKS, AND CHECKS DO NOT COVER OTHER TYPES OF CONVICTIONS OR ARRESTS OR ANY CONVICTIONS FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
You agree to, and hereby do, release the Company and its successors from any claims, demands, losses, damages, rights, and actions of any kind, including personal injuries, death and property damage, that either directly or indirectly arises from your interactions with or conduct of other users of the Service. If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states, “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”
Scraping or replicating any part of Pink Filters or the Site without our prior consent is expressly prohibited. This includes by any means (automated or otherwise) other than through our currently available, published interfaces – unless you have been specifically allowed to do so in a separate agreement with us.
4. PRIVACY
For information about how we collect, use, and share your personal data, please check out our Privacy Policy. By using Pink Filters, you acknowledge that we may use such data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
5. PAYMENT TERMS
Generally.
We may offer products and services for purchase on Pink Filters (“In-App Purchase”). If you choose to make an In-App Purchase, you acknowledge and agree that additional terms, disclosed to you at the point of purchase, may apply, and that such additional terms are incorporated herein by reference.
Payment methods (“Payment Method”) for In-App Purchases may include: (a) paying with your credit card, debit card, or PayPal account, which will be processed by a third-party processor, or (b) making a purchase through a third-party platform such as the Apple App Store and Google Play Store (“Third Party Store”). Once you have made an In-App Purchase, you authorize us to charge your chosen Payment Method. If payment is not received by us from your chosen Payment Method, you agree to promptly pay all amounts due upon demand by us.
Subscriptions and Auto-Renewal: We may offer some services as automatically-renewing subscriptions, e.g., a one-month subscription, or one-year subscription (“Membership”). IF YOU PURCHASE AN AUTOMATICALLY RENEWING SUBSCRIPTION, YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL RENEW AT THE END OF THE PERIOD, UNLESS YOU CANCEL, AT THE PINK FILTERS THEN-CURRENT PRICE FOR SUCH SUBSCRIPTIONS. To avoid charges for a new subscription period, you must cancel, as described below, before the end of the then-current subscription period. You will be given notice of changes in the pricing of the Membership to which you have subscribed and an opportunity to cancel. If we change these prices and you do not cancel your subscription, you agree that you will be charged at the Pink Filters then-current pricing for subscription.
Pausing Your Subscription. We may or may not offer the ability to pause your membership. If offered, you may PAUSE your membership at any time from the “Manage Subscription” page when you are logged in. After you pause your account, your profile information, posts, and other content will be hidden from the site. You may resume your membership at at anytime from the “Manage Subscription” page when you are logged in. When a user resumes before their current transaction has expired, they will be billed again on the same day that their subscription was initially set up and will not experience any lapse in access. However, if the user resumes after the current transaction expires, then they will be billed immediately on that day and all future billings will happen on that new day (the user will experience a lapse in access if they resume after their last transaction expired). For example, if you pause your monthly subscription on the 15th, and it normally bills on the 1st of the month, and you then resume on the 20th, you will be billed again on the 1st. But, if you resume on the 3rd of the next month, you will be billed that day, and my new bill date will be every 3rd.
Deleting Your Account. Deleting your account or deleting the application from your device does not cancel your subscription. If you wish to delete your account and avoid future billing, you must first cancel your subscription (as described below), and then delete your account. After you delete your account, your profile information, posts, and other content will be removed from the site, and the account is not recoverable . You may purchase a new membership if you wish to rejoin Pink Filters.
You may delete your Account at any time from the “Account Status” page in the “My Account” section of Pink Filters.
Canceling Subscriptions. If you purchased a subscription directly from Pink Filters, you may cancel or change your Payment Method via the Payments settings in the My Subscription option under your profile. If you cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of the period you last paid for, but (i) you will not (except as set forth in the subsection entitled “Refunds” above) be eligible for a prorated refund, (ii) your subscription will not be renewed when that period expires and (iii) you will then no longer be able to use the Membership or In-App Purchases enabled by your subscription.
You will have 30 days after canceling your subscription to change your mind and reinstate your subscription. If you do not reinstate your subscription within 30 days, we may delete all of your content including your profile information, posts, images, videos, and any other content you belonging to you, and it will not be recoverable. If this is concerning to you, please consider pausing your subscription, instead.
Pink Filters pricing varies by a number of factors. We frequently offer coupons and promotional rates – which can vary based on region, length of subscription, bundle size and more. We also regularly test new features and payment options. We reserve the right, including without prior notice, to limit the available quantity of or discontinue making available any promotional rate, coupon, product, feature, service or other offering; to impose conditions on the honoring of any coupon, discount, offer or other promotion; to bar any user from making any transaction; and to refuse to provide any user with any product, service or other offering or to honor any offer.
Free Trials. If you sign up for a free trial and do not cancel, your trial may convert into a paid subscription and your Payment Method will be charged at the then-current price for such subscription. Once your free trial converts to a paid subscription, your paid subscription will continue to automatically renew at the end of each period, and your Payment Method will be charged, until you cancel. To avoid charges for a new subscription period, you must cancel before the end of the then-current subscription period or free trial period as described above. Deleting your account or deleting the application from your device does not cancel your free trial. If you have signed up for a free trial on Pink Filters, you will not be eligible for another free trial and you will then be automatically signed up to a subscription and charged as described in this paragraph.
Refunds. Generally, all charges for purchases are non-refundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods.
If you have a question about this policy, you may log into your account and contact us with your order number (you can find the order number in the order confirmation email) and/or Pink Filters username and registered email address. You must email us from the email address you registered you registered with on Pink-Filters.com.
Taxes. The payments required under this Section 5 do not include any Sales Tax that may be due in connection with the Premium Services provided under these Terms. If we determine we have a legal obligation to collect a Sales Tax from you in connection with these Terms, we will collect such Sales Tax in addition to the payments required under this Section 5. If any Premium Services, or payments for any Premium Services, under these Terms are subject to any Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to the Company, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority. As used herein, “Sales Tax” means any sales or use tax and any other tax measured by sales proceeds that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.
6. PUSH NOTIFICATIONS; LOCATION-BASED FEATURES
We may provide you with emails, text messages, push notifications, alerts and other messages related to Pink Filters and/or the Pink Filters services, such as enhancements, offers, products, events, and other promotions.

SHOULD APPLICABLE LAW NOT PERMIT THE FOREGOING EXCLUSION OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, THEN WE GRANT THE MINIMUM EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY, REPRESENTATION OR GUARANTEE NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS SECTION.
ADDITIONALLY, WE DO NOT MAKE ANY WARRANTIES THAT THE APP OR SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE OR ERROR FREE OR THAT YOUR USE OF THE APP OR SITE WILL MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS, OR THAT THE APP, SITE, OUR CONTENT, ANY MEMBER CONTENT, OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, IS CORRECT, ACCURATE, OR RELIABLE.
