Terms of Service

Version 1.1

These Terms govern your use of Tiero. By using the service, publishing content, or creating an account when accounts become available, you agree to the version shown above. The Privacy Policy explains how personal data is handled.

1. Operator and contact

Tiero is operated by Maksim Valiantsiuk, established in Belarus. Questions about these Terms, content reports, and legal notices can be sent to amadeustwi@gmail.com.

2. Eligibility and accounts

Device-only editing is available without an account and without collecting a birth date. A cloud account is for people aged 16 or older. If Tiero learns that an account belongs to someone under 16, it may erase that account. You must be legally able to accept these Terms and must comply with the terms that apply to your Google sign-in.

Keep your account and device secure. You are responsible for activity performed through your authenticated session or a share-management credential until you notify Tiero of compromise.

3. Local-first service and your choices

Tiero is local-first. Device-only tier lists stay in your browser unless you explicitly choose a networked action. Signing in does not silently upload existing tier lists or images. You choose which tier list to sync, publish, share anonymously, export, or submit to an AI feature.

Cloud sync and public publication are different. A private cloud tier list is not public. Publishing creates an explicit public grant; unpublishing removes that grant without deleting private cloud history. Removing a tier list from the cloud is a separate destructive action.

4. Accounts and handles

You must provide accurate sign-in information, use only an account you are authorized to use, and not evade a suspension or quota. A handle is a public locator, not ownership of a word or brand. Tiero may reserve names, force a rename after a valid impersonation or rights complaint, and limit renames under the product rules.

Current and retired handles are not reassigned. After account erasure, only a non-identifying keyed digest remains to enforce that rule.

5. Your content and the service license

You retain ownership of your content. You grant Tiero a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, revocable license only as needed to store, sync, process, render, publish, export, and preview the content, and to perform AI work you explicitly request. Tiero may let its service providers exercise this license only to provide those functions.

Publishing grants other people permission to view the content through the public Tiero surface. It does not grant permission for resale, unrelated reuse, republishing outside the normal sharing features, or model training. Any future template feature will require a separate end-user reuse license; these Terms do not grant it in advance.

You can revoke future use by unpublishing or deleting the relevant content or account. The service license ends with deletion, subject only to the narrow cache, asset-grace, backup, moderation, and legal-hold periods disclosed in the Privacy Policy.

You promise that you have the rights needed to upload and publish your content and that using it through Tiero does not violate another person's rights.

6. Acceptable use

Do not use Tiero to:

  • break the law or another person's privacy, copyright, trademark, publicity, or other rights;
  • publish unlawful, exploitative, threatening, harassing, fraudulent, or malicious material;
  • impersonate another person or deceptively claim affiliation;
  • distribute malware, probe or disrupt the service, bypass security or rate limits, or automate abusive traffic;
  • obtain access to another account, private tier list, or share-management credential without authority; or
  • use public content beyond the viewing permission granted above.

Tiero may remove content, revoke public access, force a handle rename, limit features, or suspend an account when reasonably necessary to enforce these Terms, protect the service, comply with law, or respond to a valid report. Public surfaces removed for moderation or account erasure may return 410 Gone.

7. AI features

AI processing happens only when you request it. The necessary prompt and context are sent through Tiero's configured gateway and an eligible model provider. Do not include sensitive personal information in an AI request. AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable; review it before relying on or publishing it. You are responsible for your instructions and use of the output. Tiero does not train models on your content and instructs the provider not to use prompts or outputs for training, but provider retention remains governed by the Privacy Policy and applicable provider terms.

8. Anonymous shares and public links

An anonymous share is public to anyone with its URL. The public URL is not proof of ownership. Only the browser holding the matching claim credential can update, delete, or claim it, subject to the product flow. Keep that credential and your browser data safe.

Claiming an anonymous share into an account consumes the credential and may turn the old link into a permanent redirect to an exact published version. Deleting an account does not detach claimed content into a new anonymous share.

9. Deletion and ending use

You may stop using Tiero at any time. Deleting an account is immediate and irreversible: sessions and public access are revoked, then account-owned cloud data is deleted. Device-only tier lists remain on the device. Limited backend retention exceptions are described in the Privacy Policy.

Tiero may suspend or terminate access for a material breach, security risk, unlawful use, or legal requirement. Where practical, Tiero will limit the action to what is necessary.

10. Tiero's service and intellectual property

These Terms do not transfer ownership of Tiero's software, design, branding, or other service materials. Subject to these Terms, Tiero gives you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, revocable right to use the service. Open-source components remain governed by their own licenses.

11. Availability and warranties

Tiero is provided on an “as available” basis. Features may change, pause, or fail, and you should keep an export of anything you cannot afford to lose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tiero disclaims implied warranties that are not expressly stated here. Nothing in these Terms removes a warranty or consumer right that applicable law does not allow to be excluded.

12. Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tiero and its operator are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or lost-profit damages arising from the service, user content, public links, AI output, or loss of locally stored browser data. Any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded remains subject to applicable law. These limits do not apply where exclusion would be unlawful, including liability for intentional misconduct where applicable.

13. Versions, changes, and law

The version and effective date at the top identify these Terms. Tiero may update them when the service or law changes. Material changes will be presented through the product where appropriate, and continued use of affected account features may require acceptance of the new version.

These Terms are governed by the laws of Belarus, without depriving you of mandatory protections that apply where you live. If part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Contact amadeustwi@gmail.com before starting a dispute so there is a chance to resolve it directly.
