Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and the operator of the Holotable web application and related pages (the "Service"). In these Terms, "Holotable", "Operator", "we", "us", and "our" mean that operator. By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Eligibility

The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Service only with the involvement and consent of a parent or guardian, who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf.

2. The Service

Holotable is a free, browser-based novelty that uses your device's camera to track your hand and display an interactive 3D object. All camera processing happens locally in your browser; we do not receive, record, or store your video. The Service is provided free of charge for personal, non-commercial entertainment.

3. License and acceptable use

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms. Except to the extent a restriction is prohibited by applicable law, you must not:

• copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, or create derivative works from the Service;
• reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service, except where such activity is permitted by law (for example, for interoperability) and cannot be excluded by contract;
• use the Service unlawfully or in violation of any applicable law or regulation;
• access the Service by automated means, scrape it, or attempt to overload, disrupt, or interfere with it or its infrastructure;
• bypass or attempt to bypass any security or access controls; or
• remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices.

We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you.

4. Your responsibility and assumption of risk

You use the Service entirely at your own risk and are solely responsible for your own device, browser, camera, network, and environment, for everyone and everything visible to your camera, and for your decisions, conduct, and compliance with applicable law and the rights of others while using the Service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not responsible or liable for, and you assume all risk relating to:

• your device, browser, camera, hardware, software, network, or internet connection;
• any person, property, or surroundings visible to or affected by your camera;
• any data, files, settings, or content on your device;
• the availability, uptime, accuracy, security, or performance of the Service or of any third-party service, network, or component it relies on;
• any decision you make or action you take based on or in reliance on the Service; and
• any event or circumstance beyond our reasonable control.

5. Intellectual property

The Service, including its software, design, text, and graphics (excluding third-party components), is owned by the Operator or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. The Service incorporates third-party open-source and hosted components (including Google's MediaPipe, Three.js, and React), each subject to its own license; nothing in these Terms grants you rights beyond those licenses.

6. Third-party services

The Service relies on third parties, including our hosting and analytics provider (Vercel) and content-delivery networks and machine-learning components provided by Google. We do not control these third parties and are not responsible for their acts, omissions, availability, or terms. Your use of any third-party service is governed by that party's own terms.

7. Availability, changes, and termination

The Service is provided on an "as available" basis. We do not guarantee that it will be available, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, and we have no obligation of any kind to provide, maintain, support, monitor, update, back up, or continue the Service or any part of it. We may modify, suspend, limit, or discontinue the Service or any part of it, and may restrict or terminate your access, at any time, for any or no reason, with or without notice, and without liability to you.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE", with all faults, and we disclaim all warranties, conditions, representations, and guarantees of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements or operate without interruption or error.

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, warranty, term, condition, right, or remedy that applicable law (including consumer-protection law) confers and that cannot lawfully be excluded. Where our liability for breach of such a non-excludable right may be limited, it is limited, at our option and to the extent the law allows, to re-supplying the Service.

9. Limitation of liability

The Service is provided free of charge and you use it entirely at your own risk. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we (and our owners, contributors, and suppliers) will not be liable to you for any loss, damage, cost, or expense of any kind, whether direct or indirect, arising out of or relating to the Service, your use of or inability to use it, or these Terms, however caused and on any theory of liability, even if we have been advised of the possibility. This includes, without limitation, any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages and any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill.

To the extent we are found to have any liability that cannot be wholly excluded, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms is limited to the total amount you have paid us for the Service which, because the Service is provided free of charge, is AUD $0.

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded, including (where applicable) liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, and any rights or remedies you have under non-excludable consumer-protection law (such as the Australian Consumer Law). Those liabilities are unaffected by this section, and where our liability for them may lawfully be limited, it is limited to the minimum the law allows.

10. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Operator and its owners, contributors, and suppliers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the Service; (b) your breach of these Terms; or (c) your violation of any law or the rights of any third party. This obligation survives termination.

11. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Changes take effect when posted, and your continued use of the Service after that constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service.

12. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and you submit to the courts of that place, except where applicable law gives you a non-waivable right to bring proceedings elsewhere. To the extent permitted by law, any dispute will be handled on an individual basis, and you waive any right to take part in a class or representative action.

13. General

• Severability: if any provision is unenforceable, it will be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the rest remains in force.
• Entire agreement: these Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
• No waiver: our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment: you may not assign these Terms; we may assign them to a successor or affiliate.
• Force majeure: we are not liable for failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
