Last updated: September 2nd, 2024

Welcome to Viberse (“the Platform”), provided by Viberse or one of its affiliates (“Company”, “we”, or “us”).

You are reading the Terms of Use (“the Terms”), a legally binding agreement between you and us, setting forth the terms and conditions by which you may access and use the Platform and our related websites, services, applications, and products (collectively, “the Service”), including any content, functionality, and services offered (collectively, “the Content”), whether as a guest or a registered user.

1. Acceptance of the Terms

By using the Service or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Use when this option is made available to you, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, and our Community Guidelines. If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, or the Community Guidelines, you must not access or use the Service. You understand and agree that we will treat your access or use of the Service as acceptance of the Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, or the Community Guidelines, from that point onwards.

The Service is offered and available to users who are 17 years of age or older. By using the Service, you confirm that you are over the relevant age specified herein. If we learn that someone under the relevant age specified above is using the Service, we will terminate that user’s account. If you are accepting these Terms and using the Service on behalf of a company, organization, government, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to do so and have the authority to bind such entity to these Terms, in which case, “you” and “your” as used in these Terms shall refer to such entity.

You may not use our services if you are below 17 years of age, are a convicted sex offender, are not permitted to use our Platform or Service under applicable laws, or have had your account previously deleted for violations of our Terms, Community Guidelines or other terms and policies. By agreeing to these terms you agree not to create a new account if your previous account has been deleted for the previously mentioned reasons.

2. Changes to the Terms

We revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time at our sole discretion. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to generally notify all users of any changes to the Terms. However, you should check this page from time to time so you are aware of such changes. We will also update the “Last updated” date at the top of these Terms, which reflects the effective date of such Terms. Your continued access or use of the Service after the date of the new Terms means that you accept and agree to the new Terms. If you do not agree to the new Terms, you must stop accessing or using the Service.

The seat of the arbitration shall be Singapore. The Tribunal shall be comprised of one arbitrator appointed by SIAC in accordance with its rules. The language of the arbitration shall be English. SIAC will have the right to issue injunctions and its decision will be compulsory, final and strictly mandatory on the Parties who in turn waive any other jurisdiction or venue that may apply and agree to be subject to the arbitral decision waiving any appeals of any type.
