Terms of Service

Last updated: November 14, 2026

These terms apply when you use Squeakit. By creating an account, you agree to them. In short: be decent, post only what you're allowed to post, and know that Squeakit is a free hobby project with no guarantees.

About Squeakit

Squeakit is a free, non-commercial service run by a private individual (see the Imprint). It may change, have downtime, or shut down, and there's no promise that it's always available.

Your account

  • You must be at least 16 years old.
  • Use a real email address you have access to. One person per account.
  • Keep your password to yourself. You're responsible for what happens on your account.

Your content

What you post stays yours. By posting it, you allow Squeakit to store and show it to others on Squeakit, and others to reply to, quote, resqueak, repost and comment on it and to show your videos, GIFs and reels in their own squeaks, credited to you. Videos posted as reels are converted to a standard format and size, which can change how they look. This permission ends when you delete it, except for copies others already made in quotes or replies. Only post what you have the right to post.

Rules

Don't post or do any of the following:

  • Anything illegal, or anything that helps others break the law.
  • Threats, harassment, or attacks on people for who they are (hate speech).
  • Sexual content involving minors. This is never allowed and will be reported to the authorities.
  • Nudity, pornography or graphic violence.
  • Intimate images of someone without their consent.
  • Other people's private information, such as addresses or phone numbers.
  • Spam, scams, malware, or automated posting and following.
  • Pretending to be someone else in a misleading way.
  • Content that infringes someone else's copyright or other rights.
  • Attempts to break, overload or scrape the service.

Moderation

Moderators can remove squeaks, reels and comments and close accounts that break these rules or the law. A removed squeak is replaced with a notice saying a moderator removed it. Moderators can also give an account a check mark: blue for people they have verified, gold for organizations. If you think a decision was wrong, email us and we'll take another look.

Reporting content

To report something, use "Report squeak" or "Report reel" in its menu, or email conatct.dyplay@gmail.com with a link and what's wrong with it. Reports of illegal content are looked at as soon as possible.

How the For you tab works

The For you tab shows recent squeaks from everyone, ordered by how new they are, how many likes, resqueaks, replies and quotes they got compared with how often they were seen, whether you follow the author or liked, resqueaked or replied to their squeaks lately, whether people you follow liked or resqueaked them, and the hashtags you engage with. A bit of chance keeps it varied, and no one shows up too often in a row. The Following tab skips all of this: it shows squeaks from people you follow, newest first.

How the Reels page works

The Reels page shows recent reels from everyone except you, ordered by how often people who started a reel watched it to the end, how many likes, reposts, comments and bookmarks it got, how new it is, whether you follow its author or liked, reposted or commented on their reels lately, and whether people you follow liked or reposted it. Reels you already liked or reposted come later, a good amount of chance mixes in reels you might not have found otherwise, and no one shows up too often in a row. Reels opened from a profile or from your bookmarks play in order instead, newest first.

GIFs

GIF search is provided by KLIPY. GIFs come from KLIPY's library and stay subject to its terms.

Ending your account

You can stop using Squeakit at any time; email us to have your account deleted. We may close accounts that seriously or repeatedly break these terms.

Liability

Squeakit is provided free of charge and as it is. We are fully liable for damage caused on purpose or through gross negligence, and for personal injury. Otherwise, liability is excluded as far as the law allows.

Changes and law

If these terms change, the new version will be posted here; for important changes, we'll tell you in the app. If you don't agree with a change, you can stop using Squeakit and have your account deleted. Austrian law applies, excluding its conflict-of-law rules. If you use Squeakit as a consumer, you keep the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of the country you live in.
