Pokee Terms of Service
Effective Date: May 19, 2026
Welcome to Pokee! These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Pokee mobile application and related web pages at pokee.me (collectively, the “Service”), operated by Pokee (“we,” “us,” or “our”).
By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 17 years old to use Pokee. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that:
- You are at least 17 years of age.
- You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract.
- You are not prohibited from using the Service under the laws of your jurisdiction.
- You will provide accurate, current, and complete information when creating your profile.
We may refuse service, terminate accounts, or remove content at our sole discretion if we believe these requirements have not been met.
2. Description of the Service
Pokee is a social discovery application that allows users to create a profile, share a unique link to that profile, and receive notifications (“pokes”) from people who view their profile and express interest. Users may then choose to acknowledge, decline, or mutually engage with these expressions of interest.
Pokee does not facilitate direct messaging within the app. Users are responsible for any communication they conduct on external platforms after a mutual poke.
3. Account Registration and Security
To use most features of Pokee, you must create an account by providing certain information including your name, age, photos, and other profile details. You agree to:
- Keep your account credentials confidential.
- Notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to your account.
- Be responsible for all activities that occur under your account.
- Provide truthful, accurate information and update it as needed.
4. User Conduct and Content
You are solely responsible for any content (text, photos, links, or other materials) that you upload, post, or share through the Service (“User Content”). You agree NOT to:
- Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your identity or age.
- Upload photos of any person other than yourself without their consent.
- Upload nude, sexually explicit, violent, or otherwise inappropriate content.
- Harass, threaten, stalk, defame, or harm any other user.
- Use the Service for any commercial solicitation, spam, or unauthorized advertising.
- Use the Service to engage in illegal activity, including but not limited to human trafficking, prostitution, or the exploitation of minors.
- Attempt to access, scrape, reverse-engineer, or otherwise interfere with the Service or other users’ data.
- Use bots, automation, or fake accounts.
We reserve the right (but have no obligation) to remove User Content, suspend, or terminate accounts that violate these rules. We have a zero-tolerance policy for objectionable content and abusive users, in accordance with Apple App Store Guideline 1.2.
5. License to User Content
By submitting User Content to Pokee, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, and distribute that content solely for the purpose of operating and providing the Service. You retain all ownership rights in your User Content.
6. Reporting Abuse and Blocking Users
Pokee provides tools for you to report objectionable content or abusive behavior. You may also block users to prevent further interaction. We review reports promptly and will take action — including content removal, account suspension, or permanent ban — when warranted, typically within 24 hours of receiving a report.
To report a user or content, use the in-app reporting feature or email us at support@pokee.me.
7. Subscriptions and Payments
Pokee offers an optional auto-renewing subscription (“Pokee Premium”) that unlocks additional features such as the ability to see who has poked you.
Pricing and Billing
- Pokee Premium is offered at $3.99 USD per month, or as otherwise displayed in the App at the time of purchase.
- Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
- Your subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period at the same price unless price changes have been disclosed to you in advance.
Managing and Canceling Your Subscription
You can manage and cancel your subscription at any time by going to your Apple ID account settings on your device after purchase. Cancellation will take effect at the end of the current billing period.
Refunds
All purchases made through the Apple App Store are subject to Apple’s refund policy. We do not directly process refunds; please contact Apple Support to request a refund.
8. Third-Party Services
Pokee integrates with third-party services to operate, including but not limited to Apple App Store (payments), Supabase (data storage and authentication), and RevenueCat (subscription management). Your use of those services is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices of any third-party service.
9. Termination
You may delete your account at any time from within the Pokee app’s settings screen. Upon deletion, your profile and associated data will be permanently removed in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
We may suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or engaged in conduct that we determine, in our sole discretion, to be harmful to the Service or other users.
10. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE.
Pokee is a social discovery tool, not a dating service or matchmaking agency. We do not verify the identity, background, or intentions of users. You are solely responsible for evaluating anyone you choose to interact with through or outside of the Service.
11. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, POKEE AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) $100 USD.
12. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Pokee and its affiliates from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in any way connected with your use of the Service, your User Content, or your violation of these Terms.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you through the App or by other reasonable means. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of the updated Terms constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
14. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New York, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
