ScreenOrbit Terms of Use

Acceptance and eligibility

These Terms govern access to ScreenOrbit.com and its browser tools, guides, downloads, and simulations (the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms and the linked Privacy Policy, Disclaimer, and, for eligible exports, Image License. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

The Service is intended for a general audience aged 13 and older. If you are below the age of legal majority where you live, a parent or guardian should review these Terms and supervise uses involving local files, downloads, fullscreen, audio, motion, pranks, or simulations. Children under 13 must not submit personal information through the contact form.

The service

ScreenOrbit provides browser-native color surfaces, visual display patterns, generators, screensavers, audio, guides, and fictional simulations. The Service is free at the effective date, requires no public account, and does not perform a hardware diagnosis, system update, security scan, device repair, or professional calibration.

Tool settings and supported local files are generally processed on your device. Feature support varies by browser, operating system, display, permissions, and power policy.

Permission to use ScreenOrbit

ScreenOrbit grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Service for its intended lawful purposes. This permission does not let you copy or redistribute the website, bypass security or technical limits, frame the Service in a misleading way, scrape it in a manner that burdens the Service, reverse engineer non-public components except where law expressly permits, or use ScreenOrbit branding without permission.

Eligible downloaded images receive the separate rights stated in the Image License. That output license is broader than the permission to use the website itself.

Acceptable use

You must comply with applicable law and respect other people’s privacy, property, safety, intellectual property, and access rights. You must not:

• use the Service for fraud, harassment, coercion, stalking, phishing, impersonation, extortion, credential collection, payment requests, malware delivery, or unauthorized access;
• claim that a browser simulation is an official government, law-enforcement, emergency, platform, device-maker, employer, school, or IT-support notice;
• place or leave a simulation on a device you do not own or control without the informed permission of the owner and affected people;
• interrupt an exam, medical process, accessibility aid, safety operation, public terminal, workplace system, genuine update, or active work session;
• encourage a shutdown, restart, download, call, payment, or disclosure that could cause loss, expense, fear, or compromise;
• upload or display unlawful, infringing, deceptive, hateful, sexually exploitative, or privacy-invasive material; or
• probe, overload, disrupt, automate abusive requests to, or evade controls protecting the Service.

Pranks and simulations require consent

Prank, fake-update, crash, lock-screen, virus, loading, and similar pages are fictional browser scenes for disclosed productions, teaching, demonstrations, or brief consensual entertainment. Get informed permission before starting. Keep a visible exit path, rehearse Escape, save real work, confirm that no genuine update or safety task is active, keep the session short, and disclose the simulation promptly if anyone shows concern.

Do not use a simulation on a public, shared, school, medical, retail, government, or workplace device unless the organization has expressly authorized the exact exercise. Do not add real names, case numbers, phone numbers, payment instructions, credentials, or personal records to make a scene more convincing.

Your content and generated output

You are responsible for custom text, colors, local images, and other material you choose, including permission to use it and the consequences of displaying or distributing it. Supported local files stay in the browser unless a page clearly says otherwise. Do not assume that local processing removes your duties to a rights holder or an affected person.

ScreenOrbit does not claim ownership of your local file. Rights in eligible downloaded output are described in the Image License. A screenshot or recording may also contain interface, trademark, portrait, copyrighted, or private material that the output license does not cover.

Intellectual property and third-party names

The Service, including its original code, interface, writing, illustrations, photographs, sounds, and ScreenOrbit marks, is owned by or licensed to ScreenOrbit and protected by applicable law. Except for the express permissions in these Terms and the Image License, no right is granted.

Microsoft, Windows, Apple, macOS, Google, Android, Canonical, Ubuntu, and other names or marks belong to their respective owners. Descriptive references do not imply affiliation, certification, or endorsement. Send a rights concern with the exact URL and material through the Rights contact route.

Privacy

The Privacy Policy explains browser-local processing, service logs, contact messages, retention, service providers, and privacy rights for EU, EEA, and US visitors. Do not submit unnecessary sensitive information.

Availability, enforcement, and changes

ScreenOrbit may maintain, change, discontinue, limit, or suspend any part of the Service. We may block abusive traffic or access that creates a security, legal, or operational risk. We do not promise that every feature will remain compatible with every browser or device, or that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free.

We will not knowingly make a material retroactive change that removes a right already granted for a compliant downloaded output. Published guides and tool behavior may be corrected as browsers, sources, and safety requirements change.

Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available.” ScreenOrbit disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, and uninterrupted availability. Display patterns support visual observation only; they do not diagnose hardware, certify calibration, determine a warranty, treat health conditions, secure a device, or replace professional advice. The Disclaimer provides important route-specific limits.

Nothing in these Terms excludes a guarantee, warranty, remedy, or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including mandatory consumer protections in the European Union or a US state.

Limits of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, ScreenOrbit and its contributors will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive loss, or for lost data, revenue, profits, goodwill, or business interruption arising from the Service. For US users, ScreenOrbit’s total aggregate liability arising from the Service will not exceed the greater of US $100 or the amount you paid ScreenOrbit for the Service during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

These limits do not apply where prohibited, or to liability that cannot be limited, including liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence where applicable, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or breach of mandatory consumer rights. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so part of this section may not apply to you.

If you use the Service for a business or professional purpose in the United States, you agree to indemnify ScreenOrbit against a third-party claim arising from your unlawful content, your breach of the acceptable-use or consent rules, or your infringement of another person’s rights, to the extent permitted by law. This indemnity does not apply to EU consumers acting outside a trade or profession.

Regional consumer rights and disputes

These Terms do not deprive consumers of mandatory protections in the country or state where they live. EU and EEA consumers may bring a claim in a court available under applicable consumer law. US residents retain non-waivable rights under applicable federal and state law. No clause requires individual arbitration or waives a class action.

Before filing a formal claim, please send a concise notice through the Contact page with the relevant URL, dates, requested resolution, and a safe way to reply. This informal step is optional where law gives you an immediate right to another remedy.

Contact and changes to these Terms

Questions, legal notices, security reports, and rights concerns should use the matching topic on the Contact page. We may update these Terms prospectively when the Service or law changes. The effective date will be revised, and material changes will receive notice where required. Continued use after an effective update means the updated Terms apply from that point, subject to mandatory law.
