Terms of Service
Welcome to slime.hq. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website at slimehq.live and our related community features, including our Discord bot and the /settwitch command (together, the "Service"). Please read them carefully. By accessing the Service or opting in to be featured, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. About the Service
slime.hq (the "Service," "we," "us," or "our") is a community website that highlights members of our community, shows when participating creators are live on Twitch, and lists community events. The Service is operated on a volunteer, non-commercial basis. We do not host, re-encode, or rebroadcast any video. Live video is displayed exclusively through Twitch's own official embedded player and remains served by, and subject to, Twitch.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old (the minimum age for Discord and Twitch) and old enough to form a binding agreement in your jurisdiction; if you are a minor, you may use the Service only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian. You are responsible for complying with the terms of any third-party platform you use in connection with the Service, including Twitch and Discord.
3. What the Service Does
- Displays public profile information (such as display name and avatar) of community members who hold the @creator role in our Discord server;
- For creators who opt in, detects their public Twitch live status and embeds and links to their public Twitch stream and channels;
- Lists scheduled community events created in our Discord server.
We do not guarantee that any feature will be available, accurate, or uninterrupted, and we may add, change, or remove features at any time.
4. Opt-In & Creator Participation
Being featured is entirely voluntary and opt-in. You are featured for live detection only if you (a) hold the @creator role in our Discord, and (b) voluntarily link your Twitch handle yourself using the /settwitch command. You may opt out at any time using /removetwitch, by leaving the Discord, or by asking an admin to remove your role.
By opting in, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to display your public profile information, your provided Twitch handle, your public live status, and to embed your public Twitch stream and link to your channels, solely for the purpose of operating the Service. You represent and warrant that you have the right to grant this license and that you control any account you link. This license ends when you opt out (subject to caching and normal technical delays).
5. Use at Your Own Risk
The Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. You use the Service at your own risk. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, that live status or any information shown will be timely or accurate, or that your stream will be detected or displayed.
6. No Financial or Performance Promises
Participation is free and provides no payment, compensation, revenue share, or financial benefit of any kind. We make no promise or guarantee of viewership, followers, subscribers, donations, growth, exposure, results, or any other outcome. Nothing in these Terms or the Service creates an employment, partnership, agency, joint-venture, or fiduciary relationship between you and us. Any decision you make in reliance on the Service is your own.
7. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Violate any law or the terms of Twitch, Discord, or any other platform;
- Stream, link, or promote content that is illegal, infringing, hateful, harassing, threatening, sexually exploitative, or otherwise objectionable;
- Impersonate any person or link a Twitch (or other) account you do not control;
- Interfere with, abuse, overload, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, the bot, or related systems.
We may remove any content, creator, or participant, and revoke the @creator role or featuring, at our sole discretion, at any time, with or without notice.
8. Content & Intellectual Property
You retain all rights to your own streams, channels, and content; we claim no ownership over them. Embedded Twitch content belongs to the respective streamers and/or Twitch. The slime.hq name, branding, site design, and code are owned by us and may not be copied or reused without permission. If you believe content displayed via the Service infringes your rights, contact us (see below) and we will address it promptly.
9. Third-Party Services & No Affiliation
The Service relies on and links to third-party services we do not control, including Twitch, Discord, and Cloudflare. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and policies, and we are not responsible for them. slime.hq is an independent fan/community project and is not affiliated with, endorsed, sponsored, or approved by Twitch, Discord, Amazon, or any game publisher. All trademarks belong to their respective owners.
10. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability
See our Disclaimer for additional terms, which are incorporated here by reference. To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will we (or our operators, volunteers, or contributors) be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, goodwill, viewership, or opportunity, arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Service, even if advised of the possibility. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Service will not exceed USD $100. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless slime.hq and its operators from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your content, your use of the Service, or your breach of these Terms or any third-party rights.
12. Changes & Termination
We may update these Terms from time to time; the "Last updated" date reflects the latest version, and your continued use after changes means you accept them. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate the Service or your access to it at any time, for any reason, without notice.
13. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. You agree that any dispute not resolved informally will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Massachusetts, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there.
