Terms of Service

Last updated: · Effective from the date you first use the service.

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and Cometpost LLC, a Washington limited liability company (“cometpost”, “we”, “us”), governing your use of the cometpost website at cometpost.app, the cometpost application, and the cometpost API and MCP server (together, the “Service”).

In short: cometpost publishes content to third-party social media platforms on your instruction. You remain responsible for what you publish and for following each platform's own rules. We depend on those platforms' APIs and cannot guarantee they will keep working. Please read section 10 and section 15 in particular.

1. Acceptance and eligibility

By creating a cometpost account, connecting a social media account to cometpost, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

You represent that:

  • you are at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live, whichever is higher;
  • you have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement; and
  • if you are using the Service on behalf of a company or other organisation, you have authority to bind that organisation, and “you” in these Terms means that organisation.

The Service is not directed to children. See the privacy policy for more.

2. Description of the service

cometpost is a social media scheduling and cross-posting tool. It allows you to:

  • connect one or more third-party social media accounts that you own or are authorised to manage;
  • compose a post once, including text and media;
  • apply per-platform variations to that post;
  • schedule the post for publication at a time you choose;
  • have cometpost publish that post to your connected accounts through those platforms' official APIs; and
  • review the status and outcome of each publication attempt.

cometpost also offers a public HTTP API and an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that expose the same functionality programmatically, so that software you authorise — including an AI agent acting for you — can perform these actions on your behalf.

3. Current status of the service

cometpost is in development. At the time of the last update to these Terms, the Service is not generally available, no accounts are being sold, and cometpost.app is an informational website only — it offers no sign-up, no account and no purchasable plan. Features described on this site describe the product we are building. Individual platform integrations become available only if and when the platform in question approves our access to its API, and we make no promise that any particular integration will be approved or will remain available.

4. Account registration and security

You must provide accurate registration information and keep it up to date. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, including activity by anyone you give access to and by any software or agent you authorise.

You agree to:

  • keep your password, API keys and other credentials confidential;
  • not share your account with anyone who is not authorised to use it;
  • notify us at security@cometpost.app promptly if you believe your account or credentials have been compromised.

We may refuse, suspend or cancel an account, or reclaim a username, where we reasonably believe it is necessary to comply with law, protect the Service or its users, or address a breach of these Terms.

5. Connected platform accounts

To publish on your behalf, cometpost needs you to connect the relevant social media account using that platform's own authorisation flow (OAuth). By connecting an account you confirm that:

  • you own that account, or you are authorised by its owner to manage and publish to it;
  • you have read and will comply with that platform's own terms of service, developer policies and community guidelines; and
  • you authorise cometpost to use the access granted by that platform to publish the content you schedule, and to read the minimum profile information needed to show you which account is connected.

You may disconnect any account at any time, from within cometpost or from that platform's own connected-applications settings. Disconnecting stops future publication to that account. It does not delete content that has already been published — you must remove that from the platform itself.

6. Your content and your responsibility

“Your Content” means anything you upload to, compose in, or publish through cometpost: text, images, video, audio, links, metadata and scheduling instructions.

As between you and us, Your Content is yours. We claim no ownership of it. You are solely responsible for it, including for:

  • having all rights and permissions necessary to publish it, including rights in music, footage, images, trademarks and any person appearing in it;
  • its legality, accuracy and compliance with advertising, disclosure and consumer-protection rules that apply to you (for example, disclosing paid partnerships);
  • compliance with the terms, policies and community guidelines of every platform you publish it to; and
  • any consequences on those platforms, including content removal, account restriction or account termination.

We do not pre-screen Your Content, and publishing it through cometpost is not an endorsement of it.

7. Licence you grant to us

You grant cometpost a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, reformat, transcode, transmit and display Your Content, solely for the following purposes:

  • operating the Service for you — storing your drafts, showing them back to you, and delivering them to the platforms you have connected and selected;
  • making the technical modifications needed for a platform to accept the content, such as transcoding a video or resizing an image to that platform's requirements; and
  • keeping backups and maintaining the security and integrity of the Service.

This licence:

  • is limited to what is necessary to provide the Service to you;
  • does not permit us to use Your Content for advertising, marketing, or promotion of cometpost without your separate, explicit permission;
  • does not permit us to sell, license or otherwise transfer Your Content to third parties, other than to the platforms you have chosen to publish to and to the sub-processors listed in our privacy policy; and
  • does not permit us to use Your Content to train machine-learning or artificial-intelligence models.

The licence ends when you delete the relevant content or your account, subject to a short period for removing backups as described in the privacy policy.

8. Prohibited uses

You must not use cometpost to:

  • Spam or inauthentic behaviour — send bulk unsolicited content, post repetitive or near-duplicate content to manipulate reach, operate networks of accounts to create a false impression of popularity, or engage in engagement farming.
  • Abuse automation — use the Service, its API or its MCP server in a way that a connected platform's terms prohibit, including automating actions that platform requires a human to take.
  • Circumvent limits — evade, or attempt to evade, any platform's rate limits, quotas, content-review systems or enforcement actions, including by rotating accounts, credentials or IP addresses for that purpose.
  • Impersonate — publish content that misrepresents your identity or affiliation, or connect an account you are not authorised to use.
  • Publish unlawful or harmful content — content that is illegal; infringes intellectual property or privacy rights; is defamatory; sexualises minors; incites violence or hatred; facilitates fraud; or that a connected platform prohibits.
  • Attack the Service — probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the Service without authorisation; interfere with its operation; access another user's account or data; or introduce malware.
  • Misuse access — resell, sublicense or white-label the Service without our written agreement, or use it to build a competing product by scraping or copying it.

Where a platform prohibits something and these Terms do not mention it, the platform's rule still applies to your use of that platform through cometpost.

You can report suspected abuse of the Service to legal@cometpost.app.

9. API and MCP access

If you use the cometpost API or MCP server, these Terms apply to that use, and in addition:

  • API keys are personal to your account; you are responsible for everything done with them, including by an AI agent or other software you connect;
  • we may apply rate limits and quotas, and change them, to protect the Service and to stay within the limits our platform partners impose on us;
  • you must not use API access to build a service that circumvents a platform's own developer terms; and
  • we may change, deprecate or withdraw API and MCP endpoints. Where a change is breaking and the Service is generally available, we will give reasonable advance notice.

10. Third-party platform dependencies

cometpost depends entirely on third-party platforms — including TikTok, Google and YouTube, Meta (Instagram, Threads and Facebook) and X — and on the APIs they provide. Those platforms are not parties to these Terms and we do not control them.

You acknowledge and accept that, at any time and without notice to us:

  • a platform may change, restrict, deprecate, price, suspend or discontinue its API;
  • a platform may revoke or refuse our access, or your account's access, in whole or in part;
  • a platform may reject, delay, alter or remove a post, or restrict the account it was published to;
  • a platform may change its terms, policies or approval requirements in ways that require us to change or remove a feature.

Any of these may make part or all of the Service unavailable. We will make reasonable efforts to restore or adapt affected functionality and to tell you what has happened, but we are not liable for a third-party platform's acts, omissions, downtime or decisions, and such events are not a breach of these Terms by us.

Your use of each connected platform remains governed by that platform's own terms and privacy policy, directly between you and it.

11. Subscription, billing and cancellation

The Service is not currently offered for sale, and no plan is purchasable through cometpost.app. Nothing on this website is an offer to sell. If and when paid plans are introduced, the following will apply, and prices and plan details will be published before you are asked to pay.

  • Fees and billing period. Paid plans are billed in advance on a recurring basis (monthly or annually, as you select) and renew automatically until cancelled.
  • Payment. Payments are processed by a third-party payment processor. We do not store your full card details. You authorise recurring charges to your chosen payment method.
  • Taxes. Prices exclude taxes unless stated. You are responsible for any applicable sales, use or value-added taxes.
  • Cancellation. You may cancel at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you keep access until then.
  • Refunds. Except where required by law, fees already paid are non-refundable, and we do not provide partial-period refunds.
  • Price changes. We may change prices with at least 30 days' notice before the change applies to your next renewal. If you do not accept a change, you may cancel before it takes effect.
  • Non-payment. If a payment fails, we may suspend or downgrade the account after notifying you and allowing a reasonable time to fix it.
  • Free tiers and trials. Where offered, these may be changed or withdrawn, and may carry usage limits.

12. Our intellectual property

The Service — including its software, design, documentation, and the cometpost name and logo — is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property law. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Service for its intended purpose. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. You may not copy, modify, reverse-engineer, or create derivative works from the Service except to the extent that restriction is unenforceable by law.

Third-party names and marks referred to on this site belong to their respective owners and are used only to identify the platforms cometpost integrates with. cometpost is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of them.

If you send us feedback or suggestions, you grant us an unrestricted right to use them without obligation to you.

13. Privacy

Our handling of personal data is described in the privacy policy, which forms part of these Terms. Instructions for deleting your account and data are on the data deletion page.

14. Disclaimer of warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement.

Without limiting that, we do not warrant that:

  • the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free;
  • any scheduled post will be published at the exact time requested, or published at all — publication depends on third-party platforms;
  • any particular platform integration will be available, approved, or remain approved; or
  • results obtained from the Service will meet your expectations.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions apply only to the extent permitted, and you may have additional rights.

15. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, cometpost and its members, managers, employees and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, business opportunity, or reach, arising out of or relating to the Service, however caused and under any theory of liability, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

This includes, without limitation, losses arising from a post failing to publish, publishing late, publishing more than once, publishing to the wrong connected account, or being removed or restricted by a platform; and from a platform suspending, restricting or terminating your account.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms will not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount you paid us for the Service in the twelve months immediately before the event giving rise to the liability, or (b) fifty US dollars (US$50).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or death or personal injury caused by negligence. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those jurisdictions our liability is limited to the smallest extent permitted by law.

16. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless cometpost and its members, managers and employees from and against any claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to:

  • Your Content, including any claim that it infringes or misappropriates a third party's rights;
  • your use of the Service, including use by anyone or any software acting under your credentials;
  • your breach of these Terms or of any connected platform's terms; or
  • your violation of any applicable law or of the rights of a third party.

We will notify you of any such claim and may, at our option, take control of its defence at your expense; you may not settle a claim in a way that imposes an obligation on us without our written consent.

17. Suspension and termination

By you. You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time, following the steps on the data deletion page.

By us. We may suspend or terminate your access, with notice where practicable, if:

  • you materially breach these Terms, including the prohibited uses in section 8;
  • your use puts our access to a third-party platform's API at risk, or a platform requires us to act;
  • we are required to do so by law; or
  • we discontinue the Service, in which case we will give reasonable advance notice and, for paid plans, refund any prepaid fees covering the period after termination.

For serious or repeated abuse — particularly spam, impersonation, or attempts to circumvent platform limits — suspension may be immediate and without prior notice.

On termination your right to use the Service ends immediately, scheduled posts that have not yet been published are cancelled, and your data is deleted as described in the privacy policy. Sections 6, 7 (as to content already published), 12, 14, 15, 16, 19 and 20 survive termination.

18. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms. When we do, we will change the “last updated” date at the top of this page and keep the current version available at https://cometpost.app/terms.

For changes that materially affect your rights or obligations, we will give at least 30 days' notice before they take effect, by email to the address on your account and by a notice in the Service. Continuing to use the Service after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms; if you do not accept them, stop using the Service and delete your account before the effective date.

19. Governing law and disputes

These Terms and any dispute arising out of them or the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

You and we agree that the state and federal courts located in King County, Washington have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute, and you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue there.

If you are a consumer resident in a jurisdiction whose law gives you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts or the benefit of mandatory local consumer-protection rules, nothing in this section removes that right.

Before starting formal proceedings, please contact legal@cometpost.app; most issues can be resolved informally.

20. General

  • Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the privacy policy and the data deletion instructions, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service, and replace any prior understanding on that subject.
  • Severability. If a provision is held unenforceable, it is modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed, and the rest remains in force.
  • No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
  • Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. We may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, on notice to you.
  • No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms create no rights for anyone other than you and us.
  • Force majeure. Neither party is liable for a failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control.
  • Notices. We may send notices to the email address on your account; you should send notices to legal@cometpost.app.
  • Language. These Terms are written in English; a translation, if provided, is for convenience and the English version governs.
