Terms of Service

Effective date: [the day you launch] · Last updated: October 12, 2026

Heartchu is for adults only (18+)

You must be at least 18 years old, and an adult where you live, to make an account, view, or use Heartchu. If you are under 18, leave now. We permanently ban anyone we believe is under 18, even after they turn 18.

We have zero tolerance for anything that sexualizes, exploits or endangers anyone under 18. That includes images, video, live cams, chat, links, "age play" role-play, and talking about it. We remove it, ban the account, and report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and law enforcement, as federal law requires. If you see anything like this, report it right away with ⚠ Report. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911.

Please read the arbitration agreement

Section 21 says that most disagreements between you and Heartchu will be decided by a neutral arbitrator, one person at a time, instead of in court or in a class action, and that you and we give up the right to a jury trial. There are exceptions, including small-claims court. You can opt out within 30 days of making your account. Section 21 explains how.

1. Agreeing to these Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Heartchu ("Heartchu," "we," "us"). They cover the Heartchu website and everything on it (the "Service").

By creating an account, ticking the box at sign-up, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, which is part of these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use Heartchu.

2. What Heartchu is

Heartchu is a social website for adults. Members make their own profile pages and can:

Members create everything you see here; we don't. We provide the tools, set the minimum rules needed to follow the law and keep people safe, and remove what breaks them. Some features cost nothing to use today; if we ever add paid features, we'll tell you the price and terms before you pay.

3. Who can use Heartchu

You can use Heartchu only if all of these are true:

4. Minors and child safety

For these Terms, "child sexual abuse material" (CSAM) includes any image, video, livestream, drawing, animation, AI-generated or edited image, text or audio that shows, describes or suggests a person under 18 in a sexual way or undressed, and any adult made to look or act like a minor in a sexual way. Possessing or sharing CSAM is a serious crime under federal and Washington law.

On Heartchu, and when arranging anything on other sites through Heartchu, you may not:

We remove this content immediately, permanently ban the accounts involved, keep the evidence the law requires, and report to NCMEC and law enforcement. If you think someone on Heartchu is under 18, report them right away.

5. Consent, trafficking and coercion

Everyone who appears on Heartchu must be an adult who freely chose to be there and to be seen. We have zero tolerance for human trafficking, sex trafficking, or anyone being pressured into appearing. Consent doesn't count if it was given because of threats, violence, money or housing pressure, a partner's or third party's pressure, or while someone was drunk, high or otherwise unable to decide. You may not show anyone on cam, or in any photo or video, who hasn't agreed to it. You may not role-play or promote trafficking, sexual violence or abuse. Breaking this section means a permanent ban and a report to law enforcement.

6. Your account

Making it

Give us true information at sign-up, including your real date of birth. Your username can't pretend to be someone else, use someone else's trademark, suggest anything illegal or sexual involving minors, or break these Terms. We can refuse or take away any username.

Keeping it safe

Keep your password secret. You're responsible for everything done through your account. Tell us right away if you think someone else got into it. We will never ask for your password. Log out on shared devices.

One person, one account

Your account is just for you. Don't share it, sell it, or make extra accounts to get around a ban, block, kick or hold.

7. Adult (18+ / NSFW) content

Some parts of Heartchu can contain nudity and sexual content between adults: 18+ topics and posts on Explore, and cam parties marked 18+. These parts are hidden unless you choose to see them, and you'll be asked to confirm you're 18 each time you go into an 18+ cam party. By choosing to see them, you confirm that you want to see adult content, that it's legal for you to see it where you are, and that it fits your community's standards. If it doesn't, stop using those parts of Heartchu.

Adult content may only be posted where it's allowed: in NSFW/18+ topics and in cam parties marked 18+. It is not allowed on profile pages, profile pictures, the Friendly feed, public live chat, or anywhere marked for everyone. If you start a cam party and it will have adult content, you must mark it 18+.

If you post or stream real sexually explicit content, you are its producer, and you alone are responsible for following federal record-keeping law (18 U.S.C. § 2257) and any other law that applies to it, including making sure everyone shown is an adult who agreed to be shown.

8. Live cams, audio live and recording

9. Cam parties and watch together

10. Live chat, PMs and the Heartchu dial

11. Tips and money between members

Heartchu doesn't sell anything or handle any money. A member can show their own tip links (like Cash App, PayPal or Venmo). Any money you send goes straight through that outside service, under its terms. Heartchu is not part of the payment and can't see it, refund it, cancel it, or settle disagreements about it. Send money only to people you trust, and only as a gift.

You may not use Heartchu or tips to buy or sell sex, sexual meetings, "escorting," or any illegal product or service, or to pressure anyone into doing anything. You may not ask anyone for money with threats, guilt or lies (for example, "sextortion" or romance scams). We ban accounts that do this and may report them.

12. Your content and the license you give us

What's yours stays yours

"Your Content" is anything you post, upload, stream or send on Heartchu: your page, photos, videos, music, voice notes, posts, chats, messages, streams and profile details. You keep ownership of Your Content.

What you promise about it

You promise that you created Your Content or have every right and permission needed to post it, including the music you upload to your player, and the permission of every person who appears in it; and that it doesn't break the law or these Terms.

The license you give us

So that we can run Heartchu, you give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable and sublicensable license to host, store, copy, display, perform, stream, adapt (for example, resize or convert) and distribute Your Content, in any form, in order to:

This license ends when Your Content is deleted from Heartchu, except for copies we must keep for legal reasons, content already shared with or saved by other members, and reasonable backup copies that are deleted on our normal schedule. Other members may see and interact with Your Content in the ways the Service allows (for example, sharing a public post where sharing is allowed). We don't sell Your Content.

We may remove content

We don't check everything before it appears and we don't endorse anything members post. But we may remove or limit any content, at any time, if we believe it breaks the law or these Terms or puts people at risk.

13. Rules of conduct

Besides everything above, you may not:

14. Safety, privacy and meeting people

15. Reports, moderation and enforcement

16. Copyright (DMCA) and intimate images

Copyright complaints

We respect copyright, and we expect members to as well, including for music uploaded to profile players. If you believe something on Heartchu copies your work without permission, send our Copyright Agent a notice that includes:

  1. your physical or electronic signature;
  2. the work you say was copied;
  3. where it is on Heartchu (a link is best);
  4. your name, address, phone number and email;
  5. a statement that you believe in good faith the use isn't allowed by the owner, its agent or the law; and
  6. a statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and that you're the owner or allowed to act for the owner.

Copyright Agent: Heartchu, [mailing address], Heartchuassistance@hotmail.com.

Counter-notices

If we removed your content and you believe it was a mistake or that you had the right to post it, you can send the Copyright Agent a counter-notice with your signature; what was removed and where it was; a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith it was removed by mistake or misidentification; and your name, address, phone number and email, plus a statement that you agree to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your address (or for [county] County, Washington, if you live outside the U.S.) and will accept service from the person who sent the notice. We may then restore the content in 10 to 14 business days unless the other person tells us they've filed a lawsuit.

Repeat infringers

We end the accounts of members who repeatedly infringe other people's rights.

Intimate images shared without consent

If an intimate image or video of you is on Heartchu without your consent (including a fake or AI-made one), email Heartchuassistance@hotmail.com with a link to it and a statement that you're the person shown (or acting for them) and didn't consent. We will remove it, and reasonable copies we can find, within 48 hours of a valid request, as federal law requires. You can also ask us to remove content you appear in that you agreed to before but no longer want shared.

17. Other websites and embedded content

Heartchu shows links and content from other websites, for example YouTube or Twitch videos in posts, profiles and watch together, and links members post. Those sites aren't run by us. We don't control or endorse them, they have their own terms and privacy policies, and you visit them at your own risk. We may limit or block links or sites.

18. Ending your account

By you

You can deactivate or delete your account at any time in ⚙ Settings. Once it's deleted, your page and content are gone from Heartchu for good, except as described in section 12 and our Privacy Policy.

By us

We may suspend or end your account, or your access to any part of Heartchu, at any time, for breaking these Terms, for anything we reasonably believe is illegal, harmful or fraudulent, to protect members or Heartchu, or if we stop running the Service. When an account ends, we don't have to keep or hand back any of its content.

Sections 4, 5, 12 (the parts that should survive), and 16 through 23 still apply after your account ends.

19. Disclaimers and limits on our liability

HEARTCHU IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DON'T PROMISE THAT HEARTCHU WILL ALWAYS WORK, BE SECURE OR BE FREE OF ERRORS, OR THAT ANY CONTENT IS ACCURATE OR SAFE. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT MEMBERS OR OTHER WEBSITES POST, SAY OR DO, ON OR OFF HEARTCHU.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) HEARTCHU OR FROM ANY MEMBER'S CONDUCT, EVEN IF WE WERE TOLD THEY WERE POSSIBLE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS IS LIMITED TO ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for our gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud, or any right you have that the law (including the Washington Consumer Protection Act) doesn't allow to be limited or waived.

Heartchu is an online service that hosts content made by members. Under federal law (47 U.S.C. § 230), we are generally not treated as the publisher or speaker of what members post.

20. Indemnity

If someone brings a claim against us because of Your Content, your use of Heartchu, or your breaking these Terms or the law, you agree to cover our losses and reasonable costs (including attorneys' fees) for that claim, to the extent the law allows. We'll let you know about the claim and may choose to handle our own defense.

21. Arbitration and class-action waiver

Try us first. Before starting any claim, email Heartchuassistance@hotmail.com describing the problem and what you want. We'll try to work it out with you for at least 30 days.

Arbitration. If we can't, you and Heartchu agree that any dispute about Heartchu or these Terms will be settled by binding individual arbitration, not in court, except as listed below. The arbitration will be run by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (adr.org), and the Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. It can happen by video or phone, or in person in the county where you live. For claims under $10,000 we will pay the AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees, unless the arbitrator finds your claim was frivolous. An arbitrator can award you the same individual relief a court could. There is no judge or jury, and courts can only review an arbitrator's decision in limited ways.

Exceptions. Either of us can instead (a) bring an individual claim in small-claims court, or (b) go to court about intellectual property or to stop the misuse of the Service (for example, hacking or scraping). Nothing here stops you from reporting anything to a government agency.

No class actions. You and Heartchu may bring claims only on your own behalf, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, group or representative action, and an arbitrator may not combine people's claims. If this class waiver is found unenforceable for a claim, that claim goes to court, not to arbitration.

Opting out. You can opt out of this section within 30 days of making your account by emailing Heartchuassistance@hotmail.com from your account's email address with your username and the words "I opt out of arbitration." Opting out doesn't change the rest of these Terms.

22. Washington law and where disputes go

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington and the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that isn't arbitrated will be heard only in the state or federal courts located in [county] County, Washington, and you and we agree to those courts' jurisdiction. If you live outside the U.S., some laws where you live may still protect you.

23. Changes, contact and the rest
