Sparkler Room

Terms of Use

Last updated: 3 September 2026

These terms cover your use of the Sparkler Room app. They are short, because the service is small and we hold none of your data.

What the app does

Sparkler Room sends files and messages directly between devices that have paired with each other by scanning a code. Transfers are encrypted end to end. We operate no service that receives or stores what you send, and there is no account.

When two devices cannot reach each other directly, traffic is forwarded through a relay we operate. The relay cannot read it.

Subscription

• You may host 3 rooms without paying. After that, hosting requires a subscription.
• The subscription is US$14.99 per year and renews automatically until cancelled.
• Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. It renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the period ending.
• You can manage or cancel the subscription in your Apple Account settings after purchase. Deleting the app does not cancel it.
• Prices may vary by territory and may change; a change never applies to a period you have already paid for.

Acceptable use

Do not use Sparkler Room to send material that is unlawful, or that you have no right to send. Because transfers are end-to-end encrypted and never pass through our systems, we cannot see what anyone sends and cannot remove it. What we can do, and will, is respond to reports at support@sparkler.direct and cooperate with authorities where the law requires it.

Within a room, the remedies are yours and take effect immediately: a host can remove any participant and close the room, and anyone can leave.

What the room restrictions are, and are not

A host can block saving, block screen capture, and ask to be alerted to screenshots. These are enforced by the app on each device. They are not DRM. Someone running a modified version of the app, or simply photographing their screen with another device, is not prevented by them. We say this inside the app as well, and you should not rely on these controls to protect anything whose disclosure would seriously harm you.

No warranty

The app is provided as is. Transfers depend on networks we do not control, and we do not guarantee that any particular transfer will succeed, complete, or be fast. We do not guarantee the app will be available without interruption.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, for lost data, or for anything arising from a transfer that failed, was intercepted after leaving the app, or was retained by someone you sent it to. Because we store nothing, we cannot recover anything for you.

Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including your statutory rights as a consumer.

Changes

If these terms change, the revised version will be posted here with a new date. Continuing to use the app after that means accepting the change.
