Effective date: April 26, 2026
Last updated: April 26, 2026

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“you,” “your,” or “User”) and Yakura LLC (“Yakura,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing your access to and use of the Loop video player mobile application (the “App”) and any related services we provide. BY DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, OR USING THE APP, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS IN THEIR ENTIRETY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY UNINSTALL AND CEASE ALL USE OF THE APP.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. THEY INCLUDE IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES, LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, AN AGREEMENT TO RESOLVE DISPUTES BY BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND A WAIVER OF YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR JURY TRIAL.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using the App, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. If you are using the App on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or 16 in jurisdictions where that is the applicable minimum age) to use the App. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement and that you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement. If you are a minor in your jurisdiction, you may use the App only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian.

3. License Grant

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Yakura grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable license to download, install, and use the App on a mobile device that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use.

This license does not include any right to: (a) sell, resell, sublicense, lease, or otherwise transfer the App; (b) modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works based on the App; (c) reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent such restrictions are prohibited by applicable law; (d) remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notices in the App; or (e) use the App in any manner not expressly authorized by these Terms.

4. Assumption of Risk

YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE APP IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. You assume full responsibility and risk of loss resulting from your use of, or inability to use, the App, including but not limited to:

  • The legality, accuracy, safety, ownership, or licensing status of any video, audio, subtitle, or other media file you choose to play, import, store, or stream through the App;
  • Any URL, host, network share, or remote stream you choose to open through the App’s network feature, including any phishing attempt, malware, ransomware, harmful website, or other security threat reachable through that host;
  • Any data charges, network usage, battery consumption, device wear, storage exhaustion, or interference with other applications resulting from playback, downloading, or caching;
  • Any loss of data, configuration, watch history, playlists, or settings stored locally by the App; and
  • Any consequence of granting, denying, or revoking system permissions used by the App.

You agree that you alone are responsible for verifying that you have the right to play, stream, or store any media you access through the App.

5. User Conduct

You agree not to use the App to:

  • Violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right (including copyright, trademark, publicity, or privacy rights);
  • Play, stream, store, or distribute media that you do not have the legal right to access;
  • Engage in piracy, circumvention of digital rights management, or any other infringing activity;
  • Distribute malware, viruses, ransomware, or any code intended to disrupt or damage software, hardware, or telecommunications equipment;
  • Interfere with or disrupt the App, the operating system, or other applications on your device;
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the App or related systems;
  • Use the App in any way that could harm minors;
  • Use any automated means (bots, scrapers, etc.) to access the App;
  • Use the App in connection with any commercial purpose without our prior written consent.

You are solely and exclusively responsible for the media you play, stream, store, or share using the App, and for any consequences arising therefrom.

6. Intellectual Property

The App, including its source code, design, layout, graphics, icons, text, and all other content (excluding User Content), is owned by Yakura or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws. The “Loop” name, logo, and all related marks are trademarks of Yakura LLC.

The App incorporates open-source software components (including AndroidX Media3 / ExoPlayer and other libraries), each licensed under its respective open-source license. Acknowledgements and license texts for these components are available within the App or upon request.

Nothing in these Terms transfers any intellectual property rights to you, except for the limited license expressly granted in Section 3.

7. User Content

The App allows you to play, organize, and manage media files and playback metadata that you provide (“User Content”), including local video files, network URLs you enter, playlists you create, and downloaded subtitles. You retain all rights in your User Content. You represent and warrant that you own or have all necessary rights to your User Content and that your use of it through the App does not infringe any third-party right or violate any law.

User Content is processed and stored entirely on your device. Yakura does not access, collect, or transmit your User Content. You are solely responsible for backing up, securing, and managing your User Content.

8. Third-Party Services and Links

When you use the App’s network feature to play a remote stream, fetch a subtitle file, or open any URL, your device communicates directly with the third-party host you specified. Your interaction with that host is subject to the host’s own terms and privacy policy. Yakura does not endorse, screen, verify, vouch for, or accept any responsibility for any third-party content, network, service, or action.

9. App Store Terms

If you download the App from the Google Play Store, Amazon Appstore, or any other distribution platform, your use is also subject to that platform’s terms of service. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the platform’s terms regarding your use of the App, these Terms will govern except where the platform’s terms expressly provide otherwise.

10. Updates and Modifications

We may release updates, upgrades, patches, and new versions of the App from time to time. These updates may be installed automatically through your device’s app store. You agree that Yakura has no obligation to provide any updates, support, maintenance, or new features, and that any updates we choose to provide are subject to these Terms unless accompanied by separate terms.

11. Disclaimers of Warranty

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP AND ALL RELATED CONTENT, FEATURES, AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS,” “AS AVAILABLE,” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE.

YAKURA AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, AND LICENSORS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “YAKURA PARTIES”) EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF:

  • Merchantability;
  • Fitness for a particular purpose;

  • Accuracy, completeness, currency, or reliability of any content;
  • Quiet enjoyment;
  • Workmanlike effort;

WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE YAKURA PARTIES MAKE NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION THAT:

NO RELIANCE. You acknowledge that the App is a tool and not a guarantee of the safety, lawfulness, or reliability of any media it processes. You agree not to rely on the App for any decision that could result in personal injury, financial loss, legal liability, or other consequential harm without independent verification.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU IN FULL. IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, THE YAKURA PARTIES’ WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND THEIR DURATION IS LIMITED TO NINETY (90) DAYS FROM YOUR FIRST USE OF THE APP.

12. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE YAKURA PARTIES BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY:

  • INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES;
  • LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, OR GOODWILL;
  • LOSS, CORRUPTION, OR INACCESSIBILITY OF DATA OR CONTENT, including User Content, watch history, playlists, downloaded subtitles, and locally stored media metadata;
  • SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER OR DEVICE FAILURE, OR DAMAGE TO ANY DEVICE OR SYSTEM;
  • HARM RESULTING FROM REMOTE STREAMS, SUBTITLES, OR ANY MEDIA OR URL OPENED THROUGH THE APP, including phishing, malware, fraud, copyright infringement, or unauthorized access reached through user-supplied URLs;
  • ANY HARM TO REPUTATION, PRIVACY, OR EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING;
  • ANY ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR INACCURACIES IN CONTENT; or
  • ANY MATTER BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL.

THIS LIMITATION APPLIES REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL THEORY ON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED — INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY — AND APPLIES EVEN IF YAKURA HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, EVEN IF A REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, AND EVEN IF SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE.

AGGREGATE CAP. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE YAKURA PARTIES’ TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, THE APP, OR YOUR USE OF THE APP, FROM ALL CAUSES OF ACTION AND UNDER ALL THEORIES OF LIABILITY, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT, IF ANY, YOU HAVE PAID DIRECTLY TO YAKURA FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE U.S. DOLLAR (USD $1.00). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE APP IS PROVIDED TO YOU FREE OF CHARGE AND THAT YAKURA WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE APP WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS.

BASIS OF THE BARGAIN. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION ARE A FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENT OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND YAKURA. THE APP WOULD NOT BE PROVIDED TO YOU WITHOUT SUCH LIMITATIONS.

JURISDICTIONAL CARVE-OUT. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for incidental, consequential, or certain other damages, or for personal injury caused by gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud. Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. In such jurisdictions, the Yakura Parties’ liability shall be limited to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Yakura LLC, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and licensors from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, settlements, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs), whether known or unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your access to or use of the App; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property, privacy, or publicity right; (d) any media or URL you play, stream, share, distribute, or otherwise interact with using the App; (e) any harm caused to a third party through your use of the App; or (f) your negligence or willful misconduct.

We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses. You agree not to settle any matter without our prior written consent.

14. Force Majeure

The Yakura Parties shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance under these Terms resulting from any cause beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: acts of God, natural disasters, epidemics or pandemics, war, terrorism, civil unrest, riots, embargoes, governmental actions or orders, labor disputes, internet or telecommunications failures, power failures, hardware failures, software failures, third-party service outages, security incidents, or any other event beyond our reasonable control. During any such event, our obligations under these Terms shall be suspended for the duration of the event.

15. Time Limitation on Claims

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE APP OR THESE TERMS MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE, OR BE FOREVER BARRED. THIS LIMITATION APPLIES REGARDLESS OF ANY STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS TO THE CONTRARY. WHERE APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS THIS SHORTENED LIMITATION PERIOD, THE STATUTORY PERIOD SHALL APPLY, BUT IN NO EVENT SHALL CLAIMS BE BROUGHT AFTER THE LATEST DATE PERMITTED BY LAW.

16. Termination

These Terms remain in effect for as long as you use the App. You may terminate these Terms at any time by uninstalling the App and ceasing all use of it.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the App at any time, with or without notice, with or without cause, and at our sole discretion. Upon termination: (a) your right to use the App immediately ceases; (b) we shall have no liability to you whatsoever for the termination; and (c) all provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination shall continue in full force and effect, including without limitation Sections 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, and this Section 16.

17. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

Governing Law. These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Binding Arbitration. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration administered in accordance with the rules of a recognized arbitration body, with the seat of arbitration in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and not in court, except that either party may bring claims in small-claims court if eligible.

Class Action Waiver. YOU AND YAKURA AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH PARTIES AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.

Jury Trial Waiver. YOU AND YAKURA EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

Equitable Relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Yakura may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property or confidential information.

Consumer Carve-Out. If you are a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or any other jurisdiction where mandatory consumer-protection law overrides this Section 17, you may bring proceedings in the courts of your place of residence and rely on the mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country. Nothing in this Section is intended to deprive you of rights that cannot be waived under applicable law.

18. Changes to These Terms

We may modify these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will revise the “Effective date” and “Last updated” dates at the top of this page and, where appropriate, provide additional notice within the App. Your continued use of the App after the updated Terms take effect constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, you must immediately stop using the App.

19. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or, if it cannot be made enforceable, it shall be severed from these Terms, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

20. Waiver

No failure or delay by Yakura in exercising any right, power, or remedy under these Terms shall constitute a waiver of that right, power, or remedy, nor shall any single or partial exercise preclude any other or further exercise. No waiver shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Yakura.

21. Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights or obligations hereunder, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Yakura may freely assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, without restriction, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or by operation of law.

22. No Agency or Partnership

Nothing in these Terms creates any agency, partnership, joint venture, employment, or fiduciary relationship between you and Yakura. Neither party has the authority to bind the other in any manner.

23. Notices

Any notice required or permitted to be given to Yakura under these Terms must be sent in writing to the contact address in Section 25. We may provide notices to you through in-app messages, push notifications, or any other reasonable means.

24. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Yakura LLC regarding your use of the App and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, proposals, and understandings, whether oral or written. The headings in these Terms are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of any provision.
