By using ImpaleMail, you agree to these terms. Please read them carefully, especially Section 15 regarding binding arbitration and class action waiver.
ImpaleMail is a privacy-focused email service that generates anonymous, auto-expiring email aliases. The App allows you to receive email at these temporary aliases without revealing your personal email address.
Email content is stored ephemerally in volatile memory and is automatically and permanently deleted when the alias expires. ImpaleMail is designed for privacy protection and is not a replacement for a permanent email service.
You must be at least 13 years of age to use ImpaleMail. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement. If you are between 13 and 18, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agrees to these Terms on your behalf.
ImpaleMail does not require traditional user accounts. Authentication is device-based using anonymous device identifiers. You are solely responsible for maintaining access to your device. If you lose access to your device, you lose access to your aliases and any associated email content. We cannot recover lost data or transfer access between devices.
You agree not to use ImpaleMail to:
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to any device or alias that violates these Terms, without prior notice and without refund.
ImpaleMail offers premium features through in-app subscriptions managed by the Apple App Store or Google Play Store ("Platform").
Email content delivered to ImpaleMail aliases is stored temporarily in volatile memory with a time-to-live determined by your subscription tier. Data is not backed up and cannot be recovered once deleted or expired. You acknowledge and agree that:
ImpaleMail is provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free, or secure operation of the service. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the App (or any part of it) at any time, with or without notice, and without liability to you.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IMPALE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT (A) THE APP WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, (B) EMAIL DELIVERY WILL BE TIMELY, COMPLETE, OR ERROR-FREE, (C) THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR (D) ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL IMPALE, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF DATA, REVENUE, PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF IMPALE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIFTY DOLLARS ($50.00 USD).
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, OUR LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Impale and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the App, (b) your violation of these Terms, (c) your violation of any rights of any third party, or (d) any content you transmit through the App.
If you receive abusive content through an ImpaleMail alias, or if you believe an ImpaleMail alias is being used for prohibited purposes, please report it to [email protected]. We will investigate and take appropriate action, which may include immediately disabling the alias and associated device access.
The ImpaleMail name, logo, design, and App (including all source code, algorithms, and user interface elements) are the exclusive property of Impale and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, sublicense, or reverse-engineer any part of the App without our prior written permission.
We may terminate or suspend your access to the App at any time, for any reason or no reason, including but not limited to violation of these Terms. Upon termination, all associated aliases and email data will be immediately and permanently deleted. Sections 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, and 16 shall survive any termination of these Terms.
You may stop using the App at any time by uninstalling it from your device.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Subject to Section 15 (Binding Arbitration), any legal action or proceeding arising out of these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Clark County, Nevada, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL.
Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Impale agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of the App (collectively, "Disputes") shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except that either party may bring an individual action in small claims court if the claim qualifies. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted.
Arbitration Rules and Forum. Arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, which are available at www.adr.org. If the AAA is unavailable, the parties shall agree on an alternative arbitration forum. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall take place in Clark County, Nevada, or, at your election, may be conducted by telephone, videoconference, or based on written submissions.
Arbitration Fees. If you initiate arbitration, your arbitration fees will be limited to the filing fee set by the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules. We will pay any additional AAA administrative fees and arbitrator fees. If the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous or brought in bad faith, you agree to reimburse us for all fees associated with the arbitration.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER. YOU AND IMPALE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT, BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU AND IMPALE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
Opt-Out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to [email protected] within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your name, mailing address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of this arbitration agreement. If you opt out, the remaining provisions of these Terms will continue to apply.
Severability. If the class action waiver in this section is found to be unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief, then that claim or request for relief shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in court. All remaining claims shall continue to be resolved through arbitration.
Survival. This arbitration agreement shall survive the termination of your relationship with Impale and your use of the App.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and may notify you through the App. Your continued use of the App after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the App.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Impale regarding your use of the App and supersede all prior agreements, representations, and understandings.
