Terms of use

Scope

These terms cover the Compose apps for iPhone and Android, this website, and the services we run for the apps. "We" means Perchless LLC, which makes and operates Compose Social. Using any of them means you agree to these terms and to the privacy policy.

On iPhone, Apple's standard licence for apps also applies. Where it and these terms say different things about the iPhone app, Apple's licence decides.

The networks

Compose posts to Bluesky, Mastodon, Threads and X using accounts you hold there. We aren't affiliated with any of them. Their rules apply to what you post, and they can change or close what Compose uses to reach them. When that happens, a network may stop working in Compose until we catch up. We'll say so in the app where we can.

Your posts and accounts

Your posts, drafts and media are yours. You give us only what's needed to deliver them: holding a photo or video until Threads fetches it, and storing synced data that is encrypted before it reaches us.

You're responsible for what you post and for keeping to each network's rules. Don't use Compose to spam, harass, impersonate anyone, or break the law, and don't try to get around a network's limits or ours.

Compose Pro

Compose Pro adds features to the app. The current list is in the app, and it can grow or change. A purchase unlocks what Pro includes for as long as you hold it.

• Sold by the stores. Pro is bought from the App Store or Google Play, under your store account, at the price the store shows before you pay.
• Monthly and yearly renew until you cancel. Cancel in the store's subscription settings at least 24 hours before the period ends. You keep Pro until then. Deleting the app doesn't cancel a subscription.
• Pro for Life is a single payment with no renewal.
• One store. A purchase belongs to the store and the store account it was made with. Pro bought on iPhone doesn't carry to Android, or the other way round.
• Refunds are the store's to give, under its policies. Ask Apple or Google: the purchase sits on your store account, and nothing in Compose lets us match one to you.
• Price changes apply to future renewals, with the notice the store gives you.
• Free allowances, such as the number of posts to X each month, are set in the app and may change.

The services we run

Sign-in relays, the Threads media hand-off, GIF search and sync are provided as they are, and may change or stop. Sync is encrypted with a key only your devices hold: if you lose your recovery key and your devices, we can't restore your data. We may limit or refuse requests that abuse these services.

Ending

You can stop using Compose at any time. The privacy policy says how to delete your data. We may suspend access to the services we run for a breach of these terms. A subscription keeps running at the store until you cancel it there.

What we don't promise

Compose is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, we don't promise that it will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any network will keep accepting posts from it, and we aren't liable for lost posts, lost data, or losses that follow from using Compose. Where we are liable, our liability is limited to what you paid for Pro in the twelve months before the claim. Nothing here limits rights you have as a consumer that can't be limited by agreement.

Law, changes and contact

The laws of the State of Delaware govern these terms.

Changes will be posted here with a new date, and a change to what Pro includes is shown in the app. Questions: [email protected].
