Terms of Service

Last Updated: October 7, 2026

Welcome to Snape After Dark (“we,” “our,” or “us”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to your use of sad.audio, including free and paid memberships, audio stories, images, videos and other content made available through the website (collectively, the “Service”).

By accessing or using the Service, creating an account or purchasing a membership, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service.

By using the Service, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and that your use of the Service complies with applicable laws in your country or region.

2. Accounts

Some content requires an account or paid membership.

You are responsible for providing accurate account information and for keeping your login details secure. You are responsible for activity that occurs through your account.

If you believe your account has been compromised, please contact us.

3. Memberships and Payments

Paid memberships provide access to content and benefits described on the website at the time of purchase.

Memberships may renew automatically on a monthly or annual basis. By starting a recurring membership, you authorize the applicable payment provider to charge the membership fee and applicable taxes to your selected payment method until you cancel.

Prices and available membership options are displayed before purchase and may vary by location, currency and applicable taxes.

We may change membership prices in the future. Where required, you will be notified before a new price applies to your recurring membership.

4. Cancellation and Refunds

You may cancel your membership at any time through your account's Billing page.

Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current paid membership period. You will retain access to your membership content until that period ends and will not be charged for the following period.

Payments for an ongoing membership period are generally non-refundable, except where otherwise required by applicable law.

5. Access to Content

Subject to these Terms, you receive a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable right to access the content made available to you through the Service.

Your membership gives you access to applicable content; it does not transfer ownership of that content to you.

Access to members-only content generally continues only while you have the applicable active membership.

6. Content and Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, content available through the Service — including audio, stories, text, images, videos, graphics and website materials — is owned by us or used under applicable rights or licences.

Content is provided for your personal, non-commercial use.

You may not reproduce, copy, redistribute, publish, sell, share, publicly perform, make available, modify or commercially exploit content from the Service without permission, except where permitted by applicable law.

You may not share your account or otherwise provide another person with unauthorized access to members-only content.

7. Acceptable Use

You may not:

• use the Service for unlawful purposes;
• interfere with the operation or security of the Service;
• attempt to bypass membership or access restrictions;
• access another person's account without permission;
• distribute malicious software or code;
• collect information about other users without authorization; or
• use the Service in a way that infringes the rights of another person.

We may suspend or terminate access where these Terms are materially violated.

8. Availability and Changes

We may update, add, remove or modify content and features of the Service from time to time.

We do not guarantee that any particular piece of content will remain available indefinitely.

We may also modify or discontinue parts of the Service where reasonably necessary.

9. Third-Party Services and Fourthwall

The Service is provided using Fourthwall and other third-party service providers.

Payments, memberships and certain account functionality may therefore also be subject to the applicable terms and policies of those providers.

We are not responsible for interruptions or other issues caused by third-party services outside our reasonable control.

10. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

The Service and its content are provided on an “as available” basis.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we do not guarantee that the Service will always be uninterrupted, error-free or available.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded or limited under applicable law.

11. Termination

You may stop using the Service or cancel your membership at any time.

We may suspend or terminate accounts or access where reasonably necessary, including for violations of these Terms, misuse of the Service, fraud, security concerns or legal requirements.

Termination does not affect payment obligations or other rights and obligations that arose before termination.

12. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to the Service, our business or applicable law.

Where required by law, we will provide notice of material changes.

The date at the top of this page indicates when these Terms were most recently updated.

13. Applicable Law and Consumer Rights

These Terms do not limit any mandatory consumer rights that apply to you under the laws of your country of residence.

If you are a consumer in the European Union, European Economic Area, United Kingdom or another jurisdiction providing mandatory consumer protections, those rights continue to apply regardless of anything in these Terms.

• contact us.

This may include your name, email address, account information, membership and transaction information, and communications you send to us.

Payments are processed by Fourthwall and/or its payment providers. Payment providers may collect information necessary to process your payment and prevent fraud. We do not directly process or store your complete payment card details.

When you use the website, certain information may also be collected automatically, including your IP address, browser and device information, approximate location, pages viewed and interactions with the Services. Cookies and similar technologies may also be used for functionality, security and analytics.

How we use your information

We may use personal information to:

• provide and maintain the Services;
• manage accounts, memberships and transactions;
• provide access to membership content;
• communicate with you and provide support;
• send updates or marketing communications where permitted;
• understand and improve how the Services are used;

Where required by law, we process personal information based on contractual necessity, consent, legitimate interests or compliance with legal obligations.

How we share information

We may share personal information with service providers that help us operate the Services, including Fourthwall, payment processors, hosting providers, analytics providers, email providers and security or fraud-prevention services.

We may also disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to protect our rights, users or Services.

We do not sell personal information in the ordinary meaning of the word.

Cookies and analytics

We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand how the Services are used and improve the user experience.

Where required by law, you can manage your consent through the cookie settings available on the website.

International data transfers

Because we use Fourthwall and other international service providers, personal information may be processed outside your country of residence, including in the United States.

Where required by applicable data protection laws, appropriate safeguards are used when personal information is transferred internationally.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom or another jurisdiction with similar data protection laws, these may include the right to access, correct or delete your personal information, restrict or object to certain processing, withdraw consent and request data portability.

You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), where applicable, including rights relating to access, correction, deletion and information about how personal information is collected and disclosed.

To exercise any applicable privacy rights, please contact us using the email address below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.

Data retention and security

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services and for legitimate business, legal, tax and accounting purposes.

We and our service providers use reasonable safeguards intended to protect personal information. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Children

The Services are intended for adults and are not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Services, please contact us.

Third-party services

The Services may contain links to or use services provided by third parties. Their handling of personal information is governed by their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for services that we do not control.

Returns & FAQ

Membership Subscriptions

You can cancel your membership at any time through your Billing page.

When you cancel, your membership will remain active until the end of your current subscription period. After that, you will no longer be charged and your access to members-only content will end.

Membership payments are generally non-refundable once a subscription period has started, except where a refund or cancellation is required by applicable law.

Cancellations

You can cancel your membership at any time. Cancellation prevents your membership from renewing for another subscription period but does not normally cancel or refund the current subscription period.

Refunds

Membership subscription payments are generally non-refundable.

If you experience a technical issue that prevents you from accessing content included with your membership, please contact us so we can help resolve the issue.

Nothing in this policy limits any rights you may have under applicable consumer protection laws.
