1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Animerulz (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms in their entirety, you must not access or use the Service.
These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access the Service. Your continued use of the Service constitutes ongoing acceptance of any revisions to these Terms.
2. The Service
Animerulz operates as an indexing directory. We do not host, upload, store, or transmit any video files on our own servers. All anime content is embedded from third-party media hosts that are not affiliated with Animerulz.
We provide a convenient interface to discover, search, and access anime content that is publicly available on the internet. The Service is provided free of charge and does not require account registration.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum legal age in your jurisdiction) to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
Some content on the Service may be intended for mature audiences. It is your responsibility to ensure that any content you access is legal in your jurisdiction and appropriate for your age.
4. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable laws.
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service, its servers, or any connected systems.
- Interfere with or disrupt the Service, including through denial-of-service attacks, scraping at abusive rates, or injecting malicious code.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the Service, except as permitted by law.
- Use automated systems (bots, crawlers) to access the Service in a manner that sends more request messages than a human can reasonably produce in the same period.
- Circumvent, remove, or alter any security, access-control, or content-protection mechanism.
- Impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.
5. Content & Copyright
Animerulz respects the intellectual property rights of others. We do not host any content ourselves. All anime titles, artwork, trailers, metadata, and video streams remain the property of their respective copyright holders.
If you are a copyright holder and believe that content accessible via the Service infringes your rights, please review our and send a compliant notice to dmca@animerulz.com.
6. Third-Party Content
The Service contains links to and embeds content from third-party websites and media hosts. We do not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party service. You access third-party content at your own risk.
Availability of any specific title depends entirely on the third-party hosts and may change or disappear at any time without notice.
7. Intellectual Property
The Animerulz name, logo, and the design, layout, and software of the Service are the exclusive property of Animerulz and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the Service without our prior written consent.
8. User Submissions
If you submit feedback, feature suggestions, or bug reports, you grant Animerulz a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual license to use, modify, and incorporate that feedback into the Service without compensation or attribution.
You represent that any content you submit does not infringe the rights of any third party and is not unlawful, defamatory, or offensive.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Animerulz disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Animerulz and its operators, contributors, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of, or inability to use, the Service.
Because the Service is provided free of charge, our total aggregate liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months preceding the claim — which, given the Service is free, is zero.
11. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Animerulz and its operators, contributors, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in any way connected with your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Service.
12. Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the Service, in whole or in part, at any time and without notice, for any reason — including violations of these Terms or conduct that we determine, in our sole discretion, is harmful to the Service, its users, or third parties.
13. Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which Animerulz operates, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising under these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that jurisdiction.
14. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by a new "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
