Template notice. Structurally complete and written in plain English, but not legal advice. Have a qualified lawyer review before launch - consumer law differs by market.
In plain English. Be 18+. Be yourself. Don't be cruel, don't scam, don't share anyone's private stuff. We can remove accounts that break these rules. You own your words; you let us show them to the people you're matching with. Premium is a fixed term of up to three months and does not auto-renew - when it ends, you're back on the free tier unless you choose to buy again.
Why three months is the maximum. A dating app that profits from you staying single has its incentives backwards. Ours is built to be finished with. So we cap Premium at three months, we don't auto-renew, and if a term ends without results we'd rather review your profile - or point you to a format that suits you better - than quietly bill you again. See the pricing section on our home page for the full reasoning.
These terms are an agreement between you and Tim Veles, Cottbusser Straße 13, 16227 Eberswalde, Germany ("Without", "we") - a private individual, not a company. By creating an account you accept them. During the closed test the Beta Test Agreement applies in addition and takes precedence wherever the two differ.
Without is strictly for adults. You confirm you are 18 or older, that you are legally able to enter this agreement, and that you are not barred from using the service under any applicable law, and have never been convicted of a felony, a sex offence, or any crime of violence. We terminate accounts that breach this without notice or refund.
You own everything you write and record. To run the service you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce and display your content solely to operate and improve Without - that is, to show your profile to other members and deliver your messages. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies we must keep for safety or legal reasons, and copies other members legitimately hold of conversations with you.
We will never use your words in marketing without asking you first.
Without is a text-first service. Photos are never shown before you match, have a genuine exchange, and both choose to reveal. Voice notes work the same way - both people must opt in. Content shared with another member cannot be un-seen; consider that before you reveal anything.
We use automated moderation and human review, and we act on reports. We may remove content, restrict features, suspend or permanently ban an account where we reasonably believe these terms or our Community Guidelines have been broken - with notice where practical, and immediately where there is risk of harm. Serious matters are referred to law enforcement.
Meeting people is your responsibility. We don't run criminal background checks. Verification confirms a live human, not a good one. Meet in public, tell a friend where you're going, and leave if something's off.
You may delete your account at any time in Settings - it is permanent. We may suspend or end your access for a breach of these terms, for a legal requirement, or if we discontinue the service. If we end your account for reasons other than your breach, we will refund the unused portion of a paid period. If we end it for a breach, we will not.
We work hard to keep Without running and accurate, but we provide it as is. We do not promise matches, replies, dates, or that anyone you meet is who they claim. To the fullest extent permitted by law we disclaim implied warranties. Nothing here limits liability for death, personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability to you is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or EUR 100. We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for the conduct of other members - online or in person. Consumer rights that cannot be waived remain unaffected.
We may update these terms. Material changes will be notified in the app at least 30 days in advance where the law requires. Continuing to use Without after they take effect means you accept them; if you don't, delete your account.
These terms are governed by the laws of Germany, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer in the EU/UK you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country of residence and may bring proceedings there. The European Commission's ODR platform was discontinued on 20 July 2025 and is no longer a route. We are not obliged, and do not intend, to participate in dispute resolution before a consumer arbitration board (Verbraucherschlichtungsstelle).
