Terms of Service

Last updated September 03, 2026

1. Introduction and Acceptance of Terms

Welcome to Selecta. These Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of the website located at https://theselecta.com (the "Site") and any related services, features, content, or applications offered by Selecta (collectively, the "Service"). When we say "Selecta," "we," "us," or "our," we’re referring to the company that owns and operates the Service.

By accessing or using the Service, you are agreeing to be bound by these Terms. This is a legal agreement. If you don’t agree with any part of these Terms, then you must not use the Service. Your continued use means you accept them. We’ve tried to make these Terms as clear as possible, but they are legally binding.

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Service. If you’re under that age, you’ll need a parent or guardian to agree to these Terms on your behalf.

2. Account Registration and Security

To access certain features of the Service, you’ll need to register for an account on https://theselecta.com. When you register, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information about yourself as prompted by our registration form. And that matters because inaccurate information can affect your use of the Service.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account password. You’re also responsible for all activities that occur under your account. If you suspect any unauthorized use of your account, you must notify Selecta immediately at emilyyarc@gmail.com. We can’t be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these obligations.

Selecta reserves the right to refuse registration or cancel an account at its sole discretion. We don’t have to provide a reason, but typically this would happen if you violate these Terms.

3. User-Generated Content

The Selecta Service allows you to create, submit, post, display, transmit, perform, publish, distribute, or broadcast content and materials, including but not limited to text, comments, reviews, files, images, graphics, photos, audio, video, and other materials (collectively, "User Content"). This is a core part of what makes Selecta useful.

3.1. Ownership and License

You retain all ownership rights in your User Content. Selecta does not claim any ownership over your User Content. But here’s the thing: by making your User Content available on or through the Service, you grant Selecta a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free license to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, and otherwise exploit your User Content in connection with operating and providing the Service. This license is necessary for us to run the platform, for example, to display your comments or reviews to other users.

You represent and warrant that you have all rights, licenses, consents, and releases necessary to grant Selecta the license described above. You also warrant that your User Content, and Selecta’s use of it, will not infringe, misappropriate, or violate a third party’s intellectual property rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation.

3.2. Content Standards and Moderation

You agree not to post, upload, or transmit any User Content that:

• Is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another’s privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically, or otherwise objectionable.
• Infringes any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or other proprietary rights of any party.
• Contains software viruses or any other computer code, files, or programs designed to interrupt, destroy, or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment.
• Impersonates any person or entity, including, but not limited to, a Selecta official, forum leader, guide, or host, or falsely states or otherwise misrepresents your affiliation with a person or entity.
• Is unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, "junk mail," "spam," "chain letters," "pyramid schemes," or any other form of solicitation.

Selecta reserves the right, but has no obligation, to monitor, review, or remove any User Content at its sole discretion, without notice, for any reason or no reason, including if we believe it violates these Terms. We don’t guarantee that all User Content will be reviewed.

4. Intellectual Property Rights

The Service itself, including all text, graphics, images, software, code, and other material on https://theselecta.com (excluding User Content), is owned by Selecta or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, patent, and other intellectual property laws of the United States and foreign countries. You acknowledge and agree that the Service and its original content, features, and functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of Selecta and its licensors.

Your use of the Service does not grant you any right or license to reproduce or otherwise use any Selecta trademarks, logos, or other proprietary designations. You may not modify, copy, distribute, transmit, display, perform, reproduce, publish, license, create derivative works from, transfer, or sell any information, software, products, or services obtained from the Service, except as expressly permitted by these Terms.

5. Prohibited Uses

You agree not to use the Service for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by these Terms. This means you can’t use https://theselecta.com in any way that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the Service or interfere with any other party’s use and enjoyment of the Service. Specifically, you agree not to:

• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion or feature of the Service, or any other systems or networks connected to the Service or to any Selecta server, by hacking, password "mining," or any other illegitimate means.
• Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service or any network connected to the Service, nor breach the security or authentication measures on the Service or any network connected to the Service.
• Reverse look-up, trace, or seek to trace any information on any other user of or visitor to the Service, or any other customer of Selecta, including any Selecta account not owned by you.
• Take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on the infrastructure of the Service or Selecta’s systems or networks.
• Use any device, software, or routine to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the Service or any transaction being conducted on the Service.
• Forge headers or otherwise manipulate identifiers in order to disguise the origin of any message or transmittal you send to Selecta on or through the Service.
• Use the Service to harass, abuse, or harm another person.

6. Third-Party Services and Links

The Selecta Service may integrate with or contain links to third-party websites, services, or resources that are not owned or controlled by Selecta. These third parties have their own terms and privacy policies.

Selecta has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services. You acknowledge and agree that Selecta shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any such content, goods, or services available on or through any such websites or services. We strongly advise you to read the terms and conditions and privacy policies of any third-party websites or services that you visit.

7. Disclaimers

The Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. Selecta makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, as to the operation of the Service or the information, content, materials, or products included on the Service. You expressly agree that your use of the Service is at your sole risk.

Selecta does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, or that defects will be corrected. We don’t guarantee that the Service or the servers that make the Service available are free of viruses or other harmful components. While we strive for accuracy, Selecta does not warrant that the results that may be obtained from the use of the Service will be accurate or reliable.

To the full extent permissible by applicable law, Selecta disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Selecta, its affiliates, directors, employees, agents, suppliers, or licensors be liable for any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to the use of, or inability to use, the Service.

This limitation of liability applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if Selecta has been advised of the possibility of such damage. In no event shall Selecta’s total liability to you for all damages, losses, and causes of action (whether in contract, tort, including negligence, or otherwise) exceed the amount paid by you, if any, for accessing or using the Service during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the date of the claim, or one hundred U.S. dollars ($100.00), whichever is greater.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so the limitations above may not apply to you. In such states, Selecta’s liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

9. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Selecta and its licensee and licensors, and their employees, contractors, agents, officers, and directors, from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney’s fees), resulting from or arising out of:

• Your use and access of the Service, by you or any person using your account and password.
• A breach of these Terms.
• Your User Content.
• Your violation of any rights of another, including without limitation any intellectual property right, privacy right, or publicity right.

This means if your actions cause a problem for Selecta, you’ll cover our costs. We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of these claims. You agree not to settle any matter without the prior written consent of Selecta.

10. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your account and bar access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, under our sole discretion, for any reason whatsoever and without limitation, including but not limited to a breach of the Terms. This means if you violate these rules, we can stop your access to https://theselecta.com.

If you wish to terminate your account, you may simply discontinue using the Service. All provisions of the Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.

11. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. This choice of law applies regardless of where you are located.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall take place in Wilmington, Delaware. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

You agree that any arbitration or proceeding shall be limited to the dispute between Selecta and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (1) no arbitration or proceeding shall be joined with any other; (2) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (3) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

12. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will provide at least 30 days’ notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion. We’ll typically post a notice on the Site or send you an email.

By continuing to access or use our Service after any revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. If you do not agree to the new terms, you are no longer authorized to use the Service. So if you use this site after we’ve updated the Terms, you’re agreeing to the new version.

13. Privacy Policy

Your use of the Service is also subject to Selecta’s Privacy Policy, which is available on https://theselecta.com. Our Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information. Please review it carefully, as it explains our practices regarding your data.

14. Miscellaneous

14.1. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision will be replaced by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision.

14.2. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other legal notices published by Selecta on the Service, constitute the entire agreement between you and Selecta concerning the Service. They supersede all prior agreements, whether written or oral, regarding the Service.

14.3. Waiver

No waiver of any term of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and Selecta’s failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
