Terms of Service
Last Updated: May 5, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using LinksGone ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Service. These Terms form a binding legal agreement between you and UNI LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company doing business as LinksGone ("LinksGone").
2. Service Description
LinksGone provides tools to help people identify and respond to unauthorized use of their likeness online. The Service includes:
- Face scan: Upload a photo to search the web for matching faces. Your photo is processed to compute a face embedding, then discarded. Results show where your likeness appears online.
- Guardian enrollment: Opt in to ongoing monitoring (a paid subscription). We store your email and monitoring preferences. With your explicit consent at enrollment, we also store one face crop and its numerical face template on our servers, used solely to run your periodic re-scans; both are deleted when you unenroll. We alert you when matches are found.
- DMCA notice generator: Generate takedown notices based on scan results. You review and send the notices yourself.
- LINE bot: Send a face photo via LINE to receive scan results in-chat. Images are processed and immediately deleted.
- AI deepfake detection: Automated analysis to determine whether images containing your likeness may be AI-generated or manipulated.
- Done-for-you removal ($9, optional): A paid service where you authorize us, as your agent, to prepare and submit takedown or identity filings on your behalf. Where a platform requires proof of identity, you may upload a government ID; it is stored privately, used only to complete that filing, never published, and deleted on completion (hard 30-day maximum). See the Privacy Policy for handling details.
3. Not a Law Firm
LinksGone is a technology company, not a law firm. We do not provide legal advice, legal representation, or legal services. DMCA takedown notices generated through LinksGone are automated tools — not legal counsel. No attorney-client relationship is formed by using the Service.
You are responsible for reviewing any DMCA notice before sending it. Filing a false DMCA notice may have legal consequences. LinksGone provides the template; you make the legal assertion.
4. Service Tiers
- Free tier: Unlimited face scans with rate limiting. No service-level agreement. Access to DMCA notice generation.
- Monitoring subscription ($10/month): Ongoing Guardian monitoring with periodic re-scans and alerts when new matches are found.
- Agency tier: Paid subscription for professional use. Includes higher rate limits, priority scanning, and dedicated support. Includes a 14-day free trial. Subject to a service-level agreement as described in the Agency subscription terms.
Subscription fees are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis. Paid subscriptions are billed through our payment processor while active and renew until you cancel. Prices are subject to change with 30 days' notice. All fees are in USD.
5. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use LinksGone to:
- Scan faces of people who have not consented to being scanned.
- Conduct surveillance, stalking, or harassment of any kind.
- File false or fraudulent DMCA takedown notices.
- Reverse-engineer, scrape, or abuse our scanning infrastructure.
- Upload content that is illegal, abusive, or violates third-party rights.
- Use the Service for any purpose that is harmful, deceptive, or violates applicable law.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access if we determine you are violating these terms.
6. Biometric Data Consent
By uploading a photo to LinksGone, you consent to us processing it to compute a face embedding. Before your photo leaves your device, your browser crops it to a 640px face region; only that derived crop is held in temporary storage for up to 10 minutes so public reverse-image search engines can read it, then deleted. It is not retained on our servers. Your original photo never leaves your device. For one-off scans, the face embedding is stored in your browser's local cache (IndexedDB) and never transmitted to us. If you enroll in Guardian monitoring, we store one face crop and its face template on our servers with your explicit consent, solely to run your periodic re-scans; both are deleted when you unenroll. You may clear your local cache or request account deletion at any time by emailing team@linksgone.com. See our Privacy Policy for full details on how we handle biometric data.
7. DMCA Notices
LinksGone generates DMCA takedown notice templates based on your scan results. These notices are generated by automated tools, not by attorneys. You are solely responsible for reviewing the notice, confirming its accuracy, and sending it to the relevant platform. LinksGone is not liable for any consequences of DMCA notices you send, including counter-notices, disputes, or legal action arising from your filings.
8. Third-Party Platforms
LinksGone interacts with third-party platforms (including search engines and social media sites) to scan for unauthorized use of your likeness. We are not responsible for the actions, policies, or responses of these platforms. Takedown requests are sent at your direction, and platform compliance is outside our control.
9. No Warranty
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ALL UNAUTHORIZED CONTENT WILL BE DETECTED OR REMOVED. SCAN RESULTS MAY INCLUDE FALSE POSITIVES OR MISS CERTAIN CONTENT.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LINKSGONE'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) $100 USD.
WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL. WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ACTIONS TAKEN OR NOT TAKEN BY THIRD-PARTY PLATFORMS IN RESPONSE TO TAKEDOWN REQUESTS.
11. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
12. Dispute Resolution
Any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms shall be resolved first through good-faith negotiation. If unresolved within 30 days, disputes shall be submitted to binding arbitration in Cheyenne, Wyoming under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). Class action and jury trial rights are waived to the extent permitted by law, except that non-US consumer statutory protections (including Thailand PDPA and EU GDPR) are preserved regardless of this clause.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by posting a notice on our website. Your continued use of LinksGone after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
