Terms of service

shapepages is published by Jovan Panetie, RCS de Dijon, SIREN 849268958, 5 Rue Castelnau, 21000 Dijon, France. Contact: jovan@shapepages.com.

shapepages hosts the pages, digital products, member area, emails, blog and forms you create in it, and serves them on an address we provide or on a domain you point at us.

Payments are taken through your own Stripe account. Stripe is your payment provider and the system of record for every transaction: money from a sale settles to you on Stripe’s schedule and never passes through an account of ours. Refunds, disputes and payouts are between you, your buyer and Stripe.

You keep every right you have in what you publish. The licence you grant us is the narrow one needed to run the service — to store your content, and to transmit it to the visitors and buyers you are publishing it to. Nothing here lets us sell it, train on it, or show it to anyone you have not published it to.

You can export your pages, contacts and sales at any time, and you can repoint your domain whenever you like. We do not make leaving difficult, and we do not hold an export back over an unpaid invoice.

shapepages is in beta and free while it is. That is a real commitment for the beta and not a permanent one: if a price is introduced, the accounts already using it will be told before it applies to them, with enough notice to decide and to leave with their content if they want to.

Beta also means the honest version of a reliability promise: there is no uptime guarantee, features may change, and you should not put anything here that exists nowhere else.

The service is a publishing tool, so this list is short and about harm rather than taste. You may not use shapepages to:

• Sell or distribute anything illegal where you or your buyers are.
• Impersonate a person or an organisation, or present someone else's work as your own.
• Publish material that sexualises minors, incites violence, or harasses a specific person.
• Take payment for something you do not intend to deliver, or advertise results you cannot substantiate.
• Send email to people who did not ask to hear from you, or make unsubscribing difficult.
• Attack the service or use it to attack anything else — scanning, scraping at volume, or trying to reach another account's data.

The email rule is the one most often broken by accident. A contact list is people who chose to hear from you; a list bought or scraped is not, and sending to it damages the deliverability of every account we send for, not only yours.

Sign-in is by a code sent to your email address, so your inbox is your account. Keep it secure, and tell us promptly if you believe someone else has reached it.

You are responsible for what is published from your account, including anything published through a connected assistant you have authorised.

You can close your account at any time. We can suspend an account that breaks the rules above, and where the breach is serious or ongoing we can end it — with an explanation of what happened, and, unless the law says otherwise, a chance to export first.

The service is provided as it is. To the extent the law allows, our liability is limited to the amount you have paid us in the twelve months before a claim — which, while shapepages is free, is nothing. That is a plain statement of what a free beta is worth in damages, not a trick: it is the reason the paragraph above tells you not to keep anything here that exists nowhere else.

Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

These terms may change. A change that materially affects you will be announced by email before it takes effect. French law applies, and the courts of Dijon have jurisdiction, without prejudice to any protection you have as a consumer in your own country of residence.
