Terms of Service

Version 6 · Effective date: 2026-08-18

The Turkish version of this text is the governing text.

These Terms of Service form the agreement between Selçuk Özdemir (Voxie) and you, the user of the Voxie mobile app. Please read the whole text before you start using the app; by tapping "Accept and Continue" you agree to these terms. You can read them again at any time under Settings → Terms of Service. The Turkish version of these terms is the governing text.

1. Parties and Subject Matter

Service provider and party to this agreement:
Name / Trade name: Selçuk Özdemir
E-mail: support@getvoxie.app

These terms set out the conditions of use and the rights and obligations of the parties for the anonymous voice call, voice room, messaging, story and discovery features offered through the Voxie app. The service is offered in Türkiye.

2. Definitions

App: the Voxie mobile application and all related services.
Account: the anonymous user record created automatically the first time you open the app.
User Content: everything you upload to or send through the App, including your nickname, bio, avatar, interests, voice intro, messages, voice notes, photos, stories and room titles.
Voxie+: the paid subscription service.

3. Age Requirement and Capacity

The App is available only to people aged 18 or over. You confirm that the date of birth you enter is correct and that you are over 18.

If we determine — or reasonably suspect — that you are under 18, we will suspend or close your account without prior notice.

Where required by applicable law, we may condition access on age verification and suspend or restrict accounts that are not verified. Verification will use the methods the law prescribes and process the minimum personal data necessary.

If your age declaration is untrue, you and, where applicable, your legal representative are responsible for the consequences.

4. Your Account and Anonymity

Your account is created anonymously and tied to your device; we do not ask for an e-mail address or phone number. Anonymity does not remove your responsibility for what happens on your account.

Your account is personal. You may not transfer, sell or let anyone else use it. You are responsible for everything done through it.

Creating a new account to evade an enforcement action is prohibited. We may use device-level identifiers to prevent this.

5. Rules of Use

When using the App you agree to:

• treat other users with respect,
• comply with all applicable law,
• not share personal information — yours or anyone else's (phone, address, ID, bank details, etc.),
• not use the App for advertising, promotion, spam or commercial purposes,
• not access the App through bots, scripts, automated tools or reverse engineering, not disrupt the service and not attempt to bypass security measures,
• not impersonate another person, organisation or Voxie staff,
• report violations using the in-app reporting tool.

6. Prohibited Content and Conduct

The following are strictly prohibited and enforced with zero tolerance:

• any content, suggestion or solicitation relating to child sexual abuse,
• sexual content, obscenity, exhibitionism,
• harassment, bullying, stalking, threats, blackmail,
• hate speech, racism, discrimination,
• incitement to violence, terrorist propaganda, encouragement of crime,
• promotion of suicide or self-harm,
• trade in drugs, weapons or other illegal goods and services,
• fraud, phishing, deceptive links,
• sharing another person's personal data without consent,
• content infringing copyright or other intellectual property rights,
• spam, bulk messaging, automated posting.

Where child sexual abuse material is identified, the account is closed immediately and the matter is reported to the competent authorities as required by law.

7. User Content and the Licence You Grant Us

You keep your rights in your User Content. These terms do not transfer any economic rights to us.

So that we can technically deliver the service — host your content on our servers, transmit it from your device to its recipients, display it on screen, generate previews and thumbnails, convert format and size, and keep backups — you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use your User Content, valid in Türkiye and worldwide, limited to those purposes and to the period during which the service is provided. This licence does not allow us to use your content for any other purpose, to market it to third parties or to use it in advertising.

The licence ends when you delete the content or close your account. You accept that content may remain for a reasonable period in technical backups and in records we are legally required to keep. If content has been reported, it may be retained as evidence for as long as the review and any legal process requires.

Your moral rights as an author are not transferable and are not transferred by this text.

For every piece of content you upload, you confirm that you have the right to share it and that it does not infringe the rights of third parties.

8. Reporting, Moderation and Content Removal

You can report any user or story in the App using the "Report" button.

When you report a user, a mutual block is applied immediately and automatically between you: neither of you can message the other or see the other in the discovery feed. This automatic measure does not mean the report has been upheld.

Reports are reviewed within 24 hours at the latest. Following review, content may be removed and an account may be suspended or closed.

Where the same story is reported by more than one user, it may be withdrawn from circulation until the review is complete.

If you believe your personality rights have been infringed, you may send an application under Law No. 5651 to support@getvoxie.app; it will be answered within 24 hours at the latest. This route does not affect your right to apply directly to a criminal judgeship of peace.

9. Suspension, Bans and Appeals

If you breach these terms or the Community Guidelines we may, depending on the severity: remove content, temporarily reduce your visibility in discovery, restrict messaging, suspend your account, permanently close it, and block access at device level.

Where your account is suspended or closed you will, so far as practicable, see the reason and the duration in the App.

Your right to appeal: you may appeal any measure by writing to support@getvoxie.app. Appeals are reviewed within 15 days at the latest and the outcome is communicated to you. If the measure was applied in error, your account is restored without delay.

If your account is closed for a rule breach while you hold a Voxie+ subscription, your claims relating to the unused period are reserved; send refund requests to support@getvoxie.app.

You may close your account at any time under Settings → Delete Account.

10. Voxie+ Subscription

Voxie+ is an optional, paid, auto-renewing subscription. It is not required to use the App for free.

Purchases are made through the Apple App Store or Google Play. Payment is charged to your account with that store, and the store is the party to the sale. Price, duration and any free trial are shown on the purchase screen before you buy.

The subscription renews automatically for the same period and price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. The renewal charge is taken within the 24 hours before the period ends.

You can cancel at any time in your device's store account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period; you keep Voxie+ features until then.

Where a free trial is offered, the paid subscription begins unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends.

11. Right of Withdrawal and Refunds

Voxie+ is digital content/service performed immediately in electronic form. Under Article 15/1-(ğ) of the Turkish Distance Contracts Regulation, your right of withdrawal ends once you consent to immediate performance.

On the purchase screen you confirm that the service will start immediately upon purchase and that your right of withdrawal therefore ends. If you do not wish to give this confirmation, do not complete the purchase.

Refund requests are subject to the refund policy of the store where the purchase was made (Apple App Store / Google Play). If the store does not resolve your request, write to support@getvoxie.app.

Your rights as a consumer under the Turkish Consumer Protection Law are reserved.

12. Provision of the Service, Changes and Interruptions

The service is provided "as is". We do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or perform identically on every device.

We may suspend the service temporarily, change features or remove them for maintenance, security, legal compliance or technical necessity. Where we materially change or remove a paid feature, subscribers are notified in advance.

Voice call quality depends on your internet connection and your device.

13. Limitation of Liability

Subject to mandatory provisions of law:

• we are not liable for indirect damages, loss of profit or loss of data arising from use of the service,
• the user who creates User Content is responsible for its accuracy, reliability and lawfulness,
• we are not responsible for outages or practices of third-party services (stores, payment infrastructure, linked sites).

No provision limiting our liability for gross negligence or wilful misconduct is valid. Limitations that would be unfair terms in consumer contracts do not apply.

14. Interactions Between Users and Safety Warning

Voxie is a platform that lets users communicate with each other. We are not a party to the calls, messages or any meetings between users.

We do not verify other users' identity, age or statements. In an anonymous environment, assume the person you are talking to may not be who they claim to be.

For your own safety: do not share identity, address, phone, workplace, school, bank or payment details; report anyone who asks you for money, tries to move you to another platform, or pressures you; block anyone who makes you uncomfortable.

If you decide to meet someone in real life, that is entirely your own choice and responsibility; we recommend a busy public place and telling someone you trust.

If you are in immediate danger, call the emergency line 112.

15. Indemnity

If a third party or a public authority brings a claim against us because you breached these terms or because of content you shared, you agree to cover our direct losses and reasonable defence costs. This clause does not apply to losses arising from our own fault.

16. Intellectual Property

The Voxie name, logo, interface design, software, avatar artwork and all elements it contains belong to Selçuk Özdemir. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute or create derivative works from them without permission.

You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes.

17. Your Personal Data

The purposes and legal grounds on which we process your personal data, who we transfer it to, how long we keep it and your rights under Law No. 6698 are explained in the Privacy Policy and Data Protection Notice. That text is an integral part of this agreement.

18. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms because of changes in the law or in the service. For material changes we will ask you to accept the updated text in the App; if you do not accept it you cannot continue using the service. Each text has a version number and an effective date; your acceptance relates to the version in force at the moment you accept.

19. Notices and Contact

Notices to you are given by in-app message or push notification.

You can reach us about anything at support@getvoxie.app.

For legal notices:
Name / Trade name: Selçuk Özdemir
E-mail: support@getvoxie.app

20. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

Turkish law applies to this agreement.

If you are a consumer, you may take your dispute — depending on the monetary thresholds — to the Consumer Arbitration Committee or the Consumer Court at your place of residence or where the transaction took place. Nothing in this text limits those routes.

For disputes not involving a consumer, the courts and enforcement offices of Istanbul have jurisdiction.

21. Miscellaneous

If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions stay in force.

Not exercising a right on one occasion does not mean we waive it.

We may transfer our rights under this agreement to third parties in a merger, assignment or similar event; your rights are preserved unchanged.

This agreement takes effect when you accept it and remains in force while your account is open. Sections 7, 13, 15, 16 and 20 survive closure of your account.
