Vadlo Vadlo Terms of Use
These terms are the agreement between you and the people who run Vadlo (“we”, “us”). They apply when you use the Vadlo app (“the app”) or this website. By using Vadlo you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use it.
1. What Vadlo is
Vadlo (વડલો) lets a family keep its family tree (vanshavali) in one place. Each family has an admin who reviews the changes that members suggest. Vadlo is free to use.
2. Your account
- You sign in with a Google account or with a code sent to your email. Keep access to them secure; you are responsible for what happens under your account.
- Give us true information about yourself, and do not pretend to be someone else.
- Vadlo is meant for adults. You must be at least 13 years old to have an account, and if the law where you live sets a higher age, you must be at least that age.
3. What you add to the tree
- A family tree includes information about other people, including relatives who are children or who have passed away. Add only information that you are comfortable sharing with your family, and that you believe to be correct.
- You keep whatever rights you have in what you add. You give us permission to store it and show it to the people described in the privacy policy, because that is how the app works.
- The family tree belongs to the family. When you delete your account, the people you added stay in the tree for the other members, as the privacy policy explains.
4. Family admins
A family admin decides which changes are approved for their family's tree, whether the tree is shared with people from the same village, and who the next admin is. Admins should act fairly and in the interest of the whole family. Vadlo is not responsible for disagreements between family members about what the tree should say.
5. What you must not do
- Add false, abusive, hateful or unlawful content, or content that invades someone's privacy.
- Add details about a person to harass, threaten or cheat them.
- Try to see a family's tree you are not part of, or to get around the rules about who can view or change it.
- Interfere with the app or its servers, or use automated tools to collect data from it.
We may remove content, and suspend or close accounts, that break these terms or the law.
6. Your information
How we collect, use and protect your information is described in our privacy policy, which forms part of these terms. You can delete your account at any time (see how to delete your account).
7. Accuracy and availability
The tree is only as accurate as the information the family puts in it. We do not check it, and you should not rely on it as a legal record of descent, inheritance or identity. We work to keep Vadlo running, but we do not promise that it will always be available or error-free, or that nothing will be lost. Keep your own copy of anything important, for example by sharing the tree as a picture.
8. Our responsibility
Vadlo is provided “as is”. As far as the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of Vadlo, and because Vadlo is free, our total liability to you for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us, which is nothing. Nothing in these terms limits any right you have by law that cannot be limited.
9. Changes
We may change these terms, and may change or stop parts of Vadlo. The latest terms are always on this page with the effective date above. If you keep using Vadlo after a change, you accept the new terms.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Courts in India will have jurisdiction over any dispute, unless the law gives you the right to go elsewhere.
