Terms of Use

Event Capsule lets hosts create private event photo capsules. Hosts can set an upload window, reveal time, photo limits, and invite guests using a QR code, event code, or link. Guests can upload photos during the upload window, and the gallery becomes available at the selected reveal time.

Event Capsule is currently in beta. During beta, the service may be free to use, features may change, and some functionality may still be improved or adjusted.

We may introduce paid plans, limits, or additional features in the future.

Hosts are responsible for:

• Creating the event
• Choosing event settings
• Setting the upload window and reveal time
• Sharing the QR code, event code, or event link
• Managing host access
• Downloading event photos before expiry
• Sharing and using downloaded photos responsibly
• Making sure they have appropriate permission to collect, view, download, and share event photos where required

Guests are responsible for:

• Uploading only photos they have the right to share
• Respecting the privacy and rights of others
• Using event links only as intended
• Not uploading unlawful, harmful, or inappropriate content

Event Capsule is designed for private event sharing, but event links and event codes can be forwarded or shared by others.

Anyone with a valid guest link or event code may be able to access guest-facing event pages. Hosts and guests are responsible for sharing links carefully.

Host-only features are protected through email verification and signed host access tokens.

You retain ownership of photos and content you upload.

By uploading content to Event Capsule, you grant us permission to store, process, display, transmit, and make that content available as needed to provide the Event Capsule service.

You must not upload content that:

• You do not have the right to upload
• Violates someone else’s privacy, publicity, copyright, or other rights
• Is unlawful, harmful, abusive, harassing, hateful, exploitative, or threatening
• Contains malware, viruses, or code designed to disrupt the service
• Is sexually explicit or otherwise inappropriate for an event photo-sharing service
• Violates applicable law

We may remove content, restrict access, or suspend use if we believe content or activity violates these Terms or creates legal, security, privacy, or safety risk.

Event Capsule is designed so the shared gallery remains sealed until the reveal time selected by the host. After reveal, guests with the event link or event code may be able to view the event gallery.

New guest photos are stored privately and displayed through temporary signed URLs when access is allowed. However, no system is perfect, and event links should still be shared carefully.

Event photos are intended to be available for 30 days after the reveal time. After that period, photos may be permanently deleted.

Hosts should download important photos before expiry.

During beta, some deletion features may be manual or still being improved. Hosts may contact us at hello@eventcapsule.camera to request deletion of event photos or event data where reasonably possible.

Future deletion features may include automated reminders, “Delete pictures now” actions, and deletion confirmation emails.

Hosts may be able to download event photos as a ZIP file. Hosts are responsible for how downloaded photos are stored, used, and shared after download.

Event Capsule is not responsible for photos after they have been downloaded, copied, or shared outside the service.

Event Capsule may send transactional emails, including:

• Verification codes
• Event recovery emails
• Gallery links
• Invite details
• Calendar invite attachments
• Future expiry and deletion reminders

By using the service, you agree that we may send these emails as part of providing Event Capsule.

Events may have limits on:

• Number of guests
• Number of photos per guest
• Total photo count
• Storage duration
• Upload window

During beta, limits may change as we test and improve the service.

You may not:

• Use Event Capsule for unlawful purposes
• Attempt to access host dashboards or event data without permission
• Attempt to bypass security controls, host verification, signed URLs, or access restrictions
• Scrape, enumerate, or mass-download data without authorization
• Abuse verification emails or invite email features
• Upload malicious files or code
• Interfere with the security, stability, or operation of the service
• Use the service to harass, spam, impersonate, or harm others

Event Capsule is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We aim to provide a reliable service, but we do not guarantee that the service will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.

We aim to store and make photos available during the intended availability period, but we do not guarantee that photos, event data, links, downloads, or galleries will always be available without interruption or error.

Hosts should download and back up important event photos.

Event Capsule relies on third-party providers for hosting, database, storage, DNS, email delivery, and related infrastructure. We are not responsible for outages, interruptions, failures, or changes caused by third-party providers.

We may change, suspend, limit, or discontinue parts of Event Capsule at any time, especially during beta.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Event Capsule and its operators will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of photos, data, profits, goodwill, or other intangible losses arising from your use of the service.

Event Capsule is provided without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, to the extent permitted by law.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access to Event Capsule if we believe you have violated these Terms, created risk for the service or others, or used the service in an abusive, unlawful, or unsafe way.

These Terms are intended to be governed by the laws of Ontario, Canada and applicable Canadian laws, unless a different law is required by applicable consumer protection rules.

We may update these Terms as Event Capsule evolves. If we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above.
