1. Acceptance of these terms

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are an agreement between you and Pixel Potion (“Pixel Potion,” “we,” “us” or “our”) governing your use of Fack’d, available at fackd.com and formerly known as CiteYT, including Fack’d Premium (together, the “Service”). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age of digital consent in your country if higher, to use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms on its behalf.

3. The Service

Fack’d plays YouTube videos through YouTube’s embedded player and displays fact checks of factual claims made in them, together with the sources each check relied on. Some videos have checks prepared in advance; Premium members can have new videos checked as they play. Features, limits and availability may change over time.

4. AI-generated fact checks

Fact checks are generated by artificial intelligence and are reviewed by a person only where the check says so. Checks may be incomplete, out of date or wrong. Each check rates a claim, never a person, and is offered as a starting point for your own judgment, not as professional, legal, financial, medical or other advice. You are responsible for reviewing the cited sources before relying on any check. How checks are made and rated is described on How Fack’d rates claims.

5. Accounts

Some features require signing in with a Google account. You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping access to it secure. Access codes and invite links are for the person they were given to and may not be shared or published. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use.

6. Premium subscriptions

• Billing. Premium is a subscription billed in advance each month at the price shown on the pricing page at the time you subscribe, plus any applicable taxes. Payments are processed by Stripe, subject to Stripe’s terms.
• Renewal. Your subscription renews automatically each month until you cancel. By subscribing, you authorize us, through Stripe, to charge your payment method for each renewal.
• Cancellation. You may cancel at any time from the account menu. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and Premium remains available until then.
• Usage limits. Premium includes the monthly checking hours shown on the pricing page. Unused hours do not carry over. We may also apply service-wide limits to keep the Service available.
• Refunds. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable. If you believe you were charged in error, contact us and we will review it.
• Price changes. We may change Premium pricing with advance notice. A change takes effect at your next renewal after the notice; you may cancel before then.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• use the Service in violation of any law or the rights of others;
• use checks to harass, threaten or defame any person;
• scrape, crawl or copy the Service or its checks in bulk, or use automated means to access it except through features we provide;
• attempt to bypass usage limits, access controls or payment, or to run up costs for the Service;
• interfere with, disrupt or probe the security of the Service;
• misrepresent a check, or present an altered check as one produced by Fack’d; or
• use the Service to violate YouTube’s terms or the rights of video owners.

8. YouTube and third-party services

Videos are played through YouTube’s embedded player and remain the property of their owners. Your use of YouTube content is subject to the YouTube Terms of Service and Google’s Privacy Policy. Fack’d does not download, host or redistribute videos. Links to sources and other third-party sites are provided for convenience; we are not responsible for their content.

9. Intellectual property

The Service, including its software, design, text, the Fack’d name, the Fack’d duck and other logos, is owned by Pixel Potion and protected by intellectual property laws. Fack’d and the Fack’d duck are trademarks of Pixel Potion. We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service as permitted by these Terms. You may share links to checks and quote individual checks with attribution to Fack’d.

10. Reports and feedback

If you report a problem, flag a check or send feedback, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free license to use it to correct checks and improve the Service, without obligation to you.

11. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, with or without notice, if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or to protect the Service or others. You may stop using the Service at any time. Sections 4 and 9 through 16 survive termination.

12. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE AND ALL CHECKS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT CHECKS WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE OR CURRENT, OR THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE.

13. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PIXEL POTION WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR ANY CHECK, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AND US$50.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Pixel Potion from claims, losses and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your violation of these Terms or misuse of the Service.

15. Changes to the Service and these terms

We may modify the Service or these Terms. We will post updated Terms on this page and change the “Last updated” date. If a change is material, we will give reasonable notice, such as a notice in the Service, before it takes effect. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

16. General

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Pixel Potion about the Service. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.

17. Contact us

Questions about these Terms can be sent to Pixel Potion through the contact form on fackd.com (choose “Report a problem” and include an email address so we can reply).
