Terms

The short version. Paramble is free. Press the button, enjoy something good, be decent. The work belongs to the people who made it, not to us.

1. Who we are

The website at paramble.com, our browser extension, and any other app or feature we offer under the Paramble name (together, the "Service") are run by Tessary Software Private Limited, Karnataka, India (CIN U62099KA2026PTC218247). If we change the name of the Service, these terms still apply.

By using the Service you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. We link to both from the site and from the extension. If you do not agree, please do not use it.

2. What the Service is

Paramble takes you to a piece of work made by a person, chosen from a collection we curate. Today the collection is writing. You do not need an account, and you do not pay anything, to use the Service. If we add optional extras such as accounts, newsletters, paid features, or ways to support us, these terms apply to them too, along with any extra terms we show you when you sign up.

We may change, pause, or stop any part of the Service at any time, and we do not promise it will always be available.

The Service is meant for adults. If you are under 18, use it only with a parent or guardian's permission.

3. Other people's work

Every piece we open lives on another website, usually its maker's own or its original publisher's. We link to it and show only enough to tell you where you are going: its title, who made it, where it lives, and sometimes a short description taken from the page. We do not copy or host the work and we do not own it. Any copyright stays with its maker or rights holder, and that site's own terms apply while you are there. We tag our links so those sites can see the visit came from us.

We curate carefully, but we do not control other sites. A piece may change, move, go behind a paywall, or disappear after we checked it. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of any site we link to. Some pieces deal with heavy themes such as grief, illness, or violence.

4. Our human-made promise

We aim to include only work made by people, free to read, and not sexually explicit or gratuitously graphic. A person decides what goes into the collection. We also run automated checks, before and after a piece goes in, such as for broken links, paywalls, and machine-written text, and we re-check pieces over time. Not every check runs on every piece, and no check is perfect, so this is a promise of care, not a guarantee.

We do not publish the results of our checks or make claims about any individual writer. If we decline or remove a piece, that is our editorial choice, not a statement about its author.

If something slips through, please tell us, using the report option where the Service offers one, or by email at paramble@tessary.ai.

5. Suggestions and reports

You can suggest a link to any public web page. Suggesting gives us no rights in the page itself. You let us use your suggestion, and anything you send with it, to check the page and run the Service. We decide what to include, we may decline any suggestion without giving a reason, and we may not tell you what we did with it. We read suggestions and reports privately and do not publish them; we choose every piece in the collection ourselves.

Please do not suggest pages that are illegal, sexually explicit or gratuitously graphic, hateful, that harass or target a private person, or that you know infringe someone's rights. Please report problems honestly.

6. Removing a piece

If you made a piece in our collection, or hold the rights to it, and want it removed, write to paramble@tessary.ai with the link and tell us who you are. We will remove it from the collection as soon as we reasonably can, usually within a few days. Copies of our list already saved in visitors' browsers, and cached links, can take a little longer to catch up. We will also remove a link if the page is an unauthorised copy of someone's work, or if a court or an authority with the power to do so orders it.

7. Fair use of the Service

You agree not to:

• send automated requests in bulk, or try to get around our rate limits;
• try to break into, disrupt, or overload the Service, our admin tools, or our APIs;
• flood us with fake suggestions, reports, or visits;
• reuse our collection to build another service, or present the Service as your own;
• use the Service for anything illegal.

We may block access from anyone who does, and we may block traffic that threatens the Service even if we cannot tell who is behind it.

8. Our own content

The Paramble name and logo are our trademarks, registered or not. The site's design, artwork, code, and the selection and arrangement of the collection belong to Tessary Software Private Limited. Our list of pieces is public so that the button works in your browser; you may use it as part of using the Service, but please do not take it to build another collection or service, or copy the site's design. You may share links to Paramble and to pieces freely.

9. Browser extension

Our browser extension puts the button in your toolbar, lets you suggest the page you are on, and lets you report a piece it opened. It sends information only to paramble.com. It is covered by these terms, our Privacy Policy, and the rules of the store you installed it from. You can remove it from your browser at any time.

10. No warranty

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". As far as the law allows, we make no promises about it, express or implied, including that it will be accurate, uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for a particular purpose.

11. Limits on our liability

As far as the law allows, Tessary Software Private Limited is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss, or for loss of data, profit, or goodwill, arising from your use of the Service or any site it links to. Our total liability for any claim is limited to INR 1,000, or, if you have paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the claim, the amount you paid, whichever is higher. None of this limits our liability for fraud, for loss we cause on purpose, for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for anything else the law does not allow us to limit, and nothing here takes away a consumer right you cannot give up.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms when the Service, the law, or how we run things changes. We will change the date at the top and, for a significant change, give notice on the site before it takes effect. If you keep using the Service after that, the new terms apply. A change does not apply to a dispute that began before it. Earlier versions are available on request.

13. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of India. If you live in a country whose law gives you consumer protections you cannot give up, you keep them. The courts in Bengaluru, Karnataka have exclusive jurisdiction, except that you may bring a claim in the courts where you live if consumer law gives you that right. Please write to us first; most problems can be solved by email.

14. The rest

These terms and our Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about the Service. If a court finds any part of them unenforceable, the rest still applies. If we do not enforce a term once, we can still enforce it later. Sections 8, 10, 11, and 13 continue to apply after you stop using the Service or we block you.

15. Contact

For any question or complaint about these terms, write to paramble@tessary.ai.
