Bliss Writer Terms of Service

Last updated: 16 September 2026

These Terms of Service are published at https://blisswriter.app/legal/terms, alongside the End User License Agreement and the Privacy Policy.

1. Parties

1.1 These Terms of Service are between Weedon & Scott, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("We", "Us", or "Our"), and You, the person who buys a License for the app We make ("Bliss Writer"), starts a trial of it, holds a membership in The Bliss Writers Club, the members' community We run, through which We also provide and manage Licenses ("the Club"), or uses blisswriter.app ("the Site") ("You"). You must be 18 or older.

1.2 Write to contact@blisswriter.app with a question about these Terms of Service.

2. Acceptance

2.1 These Terms of Service govern the Club and the Site, and We permit You to use both under them. Bliss Writer itself is licensed under the End User License Agreement (the "EULA"), which is a separate document.

2.2 BUYING A LICENSE OR STARTING A TRIAL ACCEPTS THE EULA AND THESE TERMS OF SERVICE. LOGGING IN TO THE CLUB FOR THE FIRST TIME ACCEPTS THESE TERMS OF SERVICE FOR THE CLUB. USING THE SITE ACCEPTS THEM FOR THE SITE.

3. Membership

3.1 You must keep secure the email address associated with Your membership, and You must notify Us immediately at contact@blisswriter.app if it is compromised. You acknowledge and agree that You are responsible for all activity under Your membership until You give that notice.

3.2 You must provide a valid email address for Your membership, and You must keep it current.

3.3 We make no representation that the Club, or anything You post in it, is or will remain private, confidential, or inaccessible to any person. You acknowledge and agree that You post in the Club at Your own risk.

3.4 When You invite a person to the Club, You must have their permission before You give Us their email address.

4. License Key

4.1 If Your license key does not reach You because the address You gave at checkout was wrong, that is Your responsibility.

4.2 You acknowledge and agree that Your internet connection and Your installation of Bliss Writer are Your responsibility.

5. Refunds

5.1 Bliss Writer is sold to You by Paddle, which acts as reseller and merchant of record. Paddle's Buyer Terms and Refund Policy govern Your purchase and name the Paddle entity that is the seller in Your territory.

5.2 We offer no refund beyond what applicable law or Paddle requires.

5.3 Request a refund, withdrawal, or cancellation from Paddle's buyer support at https://paddle.net. Paddle pays any refund; We do not pay one directly. If Bliss Writer has a persistent technical problem or a material defect, You may write to contact@blisswriter.app so that We can try to resolve it, and doing so neither replaces nor delays a request You make to Paddle.

6. Support

6.1 We provide support by email at contact@blisswriter.app, on reasonable efforts. We promise no response time, no service level, and no fix.

7. Acceptable Use

7.1 You must use the Club and the Site responsibly and must not misuse them. For example, You must not (Yourself or through a third party):

(a) use the Club or the Site unlawfully;

(b) use another person's membership;

(d) get around a security measure or an access restriction;

(e) help any third party do anything this section forbids;

(f) advertise, solicit, or harvest email addresses through the Club;

(g) access the Club or the Site by automated means or abusively;

(h) reuse the Site's content beyond viewing it;

(j) post anything off topic for a screenwriting community;

(k) post anything illegal, harassing, abusive, infringing, or malicious; or

(l) post anything that discloses a third party's private information.

8. Your Content

8.1 You keep ownership of everything You post in the Club. We take none of it.

8.2 You grant Us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to copy, store, publish, display, analyze, and modify Your content, for the purpose of operating the Club and providing Your content to other members.

8.3 That license ends when the last copy of Your content leaves Our systems. We have no duty to store, maintain, or return Your content.

8.4 A manager may edit or remove any post or comment at any time.

8.5 Posting Your content in the Club grants no license in it to other members.

8.6 You acknowledge and agree that You are responsible for what You post. You warrant that You have the right to post it, and You must not imply that We sponsor it.

8.7 We do not answer for what one member does to another. What a member does with Your content, and anything members agree between themselves, are a matter between those members, which We neither police nor enforce.

9. Reports and Takedowns

9.1 We are under no obligation to monitor the Club or the Site, or to review content before it is posted, and We assume none. We reserve the right to do either, and to act on anything We see or that is reported to Us.

9.2 Report illegal content, or content that breaks these Terms of Service, by email to contact@blisswriter.app.

9.3 Send a copyright complaint about content in the Club by email to the same address. It must include:

(a) a physical or electronic signature of the owner of the right allegedly infringed, or of a person authorized to act on their behalf;

(b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;

(d) Your address, telephone number, and email address;

(e) a statement that You believe in good faith that the use complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

(f) a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the complaint is accurate and that You are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on their behalf.

9.4 We remove infringing content, and it is Our policy to end, in appropriate circumstances, the membership of a member who repeatedly infringes.

9.5 We reserve the right to investigate a suspected breach of these Terms of Service, pursue it in court, and give what We hold to law enforcement and/or any other competent authority where the law allows or requires it.

10. Moderation

10.1 We reserve the right to edit, pin, redact, or remove any content in the Club, and to manage its rooms, for any reason.

10.2 We reserve the right to restrict, suspend, or end Your membership for a breach of these Terms of Service and/or for repeated illegal content.

10.3 A manager is not Our employee or representative.

10.4 A manager may moderate content. A manager may not set policy or speak for Us.

10.5 A manager must keep reports and non-public data confidential, and must comply with applicable privacy law.

10.6 We reserve the right to revoke the manager role at any time.

10.7 We carry no liability for what a manager does in the role.

10.8 A manager will indemnify Us for misuse of the role.

11. The Site

11.1 We give no warranty about any third-party site, including one linked from the Site.

11.2 The form in the Site's footer collects an email address so that We can send occasional Bliss updates. Submitting it is Your consent to that mailing.

11.3 You acknowledge and agree that every download of Bliss Writer, from the Site or from the Club, is Bliss Writer under the EULA, and that the EULA applies from the moment You download it.

11.4 The Site, the Club, and the trial service may be unavailable or withdrawn at any time. We promise no uptime.

12. Intellectual Property

12.1 You acknowledge and agree that all right, title, and interest in and to Bliss Writer, the Site, and the software that runs the Club, including all copyrights and other intellectual property rights therein and in any copies thereof, are and remain Our exclusive property. "Bliss", "Bliss Writer", and "The Bliss Writers Club" are Our names, and You may not use them without Our permission.

12.2 Bliss Writer, the Site, and the software that runs the Club include third-party software, open source software among it, licensed to Us by others. That software is provided to You under its own license terms, and You are subject to them. Nothing in these Terms of Service limits Your rights under those terms.

13. Privacy

13.1 The Privacy Policy describes what the Club and the Site collect.

14. Termination

14.1 You may close Your membership at any time, and You may take a copy of Your data away. You do both through the Club.

14.2 You acknowledge and agree that Your License and Your membership are independent. Closing Your membership does not end a License You bought. Our ending Your membership for a breach does not end Your License, unless the EULA's own termination clause applies.

14.3 We reserve the right to change, suspend, or discontinue the Club, or any of its features, at any time. We promise no availability.

14.4 A provision of these Terms of Service that by its nature should survive does survive, both the end of Your membership and the end of these Terms of Service. That includes, without limitation, what You grant Us over Your content, Our right to investigate a breach and to disclose it, what We own, the warranty disclaimer, the limits on Our liability, Your indemnity, the time limit on claims, governing law and disputes, and the general provisions.

15. Disclaimer of Warranties

15.1 WE PROVIDE BLISS WRITER, THE CLUB, AND THE SITE AS IS AND AS AVAILABLE. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

15.2 You acknowledge and agree that We make a free trial of Bliss Writer available to You for evaluation, and that it is Your responsibility to determine, before buying a License, whether Bliss Writer meets Your requirements.

15.3 We do not promise that Bliss Writer will help a screenplay get finished, succeed, sell, or be produced.

15.4 We do not warrant that the Club, the trial service, or the Site will be available; section 11.4 says they may be unavailable or withdrawn at any time.

15.5 We take no responsibility for what members post, and We warrant nothing about it: not its accuracy, not its completeness, not its usefulness. If You rely on another member's content, You do so at Your own risk.

15.6 What crosses a network We do not control travels at the sender's risk. We do not guarantee that a license key email, a login link, or anything posted in the Club stays private, arrives, or arrives unaltered, and We do not answer for it in transit.

16. Limitation of Liability

16.1 IN NO EVENT WILL WE, OR OUR OWNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR AFFILIATES (TOGETHER, THE "BLISS PARTIES"), BE LIABLE TO YOU IN CONNECTION WITH THE CLUB, THE SITE, OR THESE TERMS OF SERVICE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR SPECIAL LOSS, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST OPPORTUNITY, LOST DATA, LOST OR CORRUPTED SCREENPLAYS, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, AND EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS.

16.2 THE BLISS PARTIES' TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU IN CONNECTION WITH THE CLUB, THE SITE, OR THESE TERMS OF SERVICE IS, IN THE AGGREGATE, LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF FIFTY (50) US DOLLARS OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR YOUR LICENSE. THE LIMITS IN THIS SECTION APPLY EVEN IF A STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

16.3 NOTHING IN SECTIONS 15 AND 16 EXCLUDES OR LIMITS A LIABILITY THAT THE LAW DOES NOT PERMIT TO BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED. A LIMIT THE LAW DOES NOT PERMIT FALLS AWAY ON ITS OWN, AND THE REST STANDS.

17. Indemnification

17.1 You will defend and indemnify the Bliss Parties, and hold them harmless, against any third-party claim, demand, action, settlement, loss, damage, cost, or expense, including interest, penalties, attorney fees, costs, and expert witnesses' fees, that arises from Your use of Bliss Writer, the Club, or the Site, from what You post, from Your breach of these Terms of Service, the EULA, and/or the Privacy Policy, from Your breach of the law or of anyone's rights, or from any activity under Your membership, whether it was Yours or anyone else's. We reserve the right, at Your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by You, and in that case You will cooperate with Our defense of the claim. Nothing is settled on terms that bind Us without Our consent.

17.2 This section applies only to the extent applicable law permits. If the law prohibits You from entering into the indemnification obligation in section 17.1, You assume, to the extent the law permits, all liability for the claims, demands, actions, settlements, losses, damages, costs, and expenses that are the subject matter of that obligation.

18. Time for Bringing Action

18.1 Any claim You bring against Us must be brought within one year of the event giving rise to it, except where consumer law forbids shortening the time You have.

19. Force Majeure

19.1 We are not liable for a failure or delay caused by an event beyond Our reasonable control.

20. Assignment

20.1 You may not assign, transfer, or otherwise dispose of Your membership to anyone else. Any attempted assignment against this section has no legal effect. We reserve the right to transfer Our rights and obligations under these Terms of Service to an affiliate, to a successor, or to any person or entity that takes the business over.

21. Governing Law and Disputes

21.1 These Terms of Service are governed by the law of the State of Delaware, USA.

21.2 A dispute goes to the courts of Delaware. If You are a consumer and mandatory law gives You the right to sue where You live, that right stands, and the courts of Delaware are not exclusive for You.

21.3 There is no arbitration under these Terms of Service; a dispute goes to the courts under this section. You bring any claim only individually, never as a class, collective, or representative proceeding, and You waive trial by jury. Both waivers give way under section 16.3 where mandatory law forbids them, and are severable under section 22.1 where a court refuses one.

22. General Provisions

22.1 If a court finds a provision of these Terms of Service unenforceable, the provision is narrowed to the least that makes it enforceable, or struck out if it cannot be, and the rest stands. A court's refusal of either waiver in section 21.3 leaves the rest of section 21 standing.

22.2 Our not enforcing a right, or enforcing it late, does not give it up, and enforcing it once does not exhaust it.

22.3 These Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between You and Us for the Club and the Site, and they supersede all prior agreements, representations, understandings, and undertakings between You and Us on that subject matter, whether oral or written.

22.4 These Terms of Service are not read against either of Us on the ground that We drafted them.

22.5 We are independent parties. These Terms of Service create no agency, partnership, or employment between Us.

22.6 Except as these Terms of Service expressly provide, no person or entity other than You and Us may enforce them. The Bliss Parties may enforce sections 16 and 17.

22.7 Headings are for convenience and do not affect how these Terms of Service are read.

22.8 We reserve the right to use a suggestion or a feature request You send Us freely, without notice, permission, or payment. Do not send Us anything You regard as confidential.

23. Changes

23.1 We reserve the right to change these Terms of Service at any time by posting the new version at https://blisswriter.app/legal/terms. The Last updated date at the top shows when the latest change was made, and posting alone is notice of it. You should consult that page for changes. We may also notify You by email or in the Club, and We may require You to accept the new version before You use the Club or the Site further.

23.2 Using the Club or the Site after the date of a change accepts the change. If You do not agree to it, You may close Your membership under section 14.1.
