By creating an account, accessing, or using Kink Link (“the App,” “the Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not create an account or use the App.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Cascade Digital Media LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”), a Washington State limited liability company.
We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. When we make material changes, we will notify you via in-app notice or email at least 30 days before those changes take effect. Material changes to these Terms require your explicit re-acceptance through the App before you may continue using the Service.
To use Kink Link, you must:
Kink Link is an adult platform intended exclusively for users aged 18 and older. By creating an account, you represent and warrant that you meet all eligibility requirements. If we discover you are under 18, your account will be immediately and permanently terminated and all associated data deleted.
You must provide a valid email address and create a password to register. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it current. During onboarding, you must confirm your date of birth and acknowledge that you are an adult.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to:
We are not liable for any loss or damage resulting from unauthorized access to your account caused by your failure to maintain credential security.
Each person may maintain only one active account. Creating multiple accounts — including to evade a suspension or ban — is prohibited and will result in termination of all associated accounts.
We require all users to confirm their date of birth during onboarding. We store your date of birth as part of your account record for legal compliance purposes. We reserve the right to require additional age verification at any time and to suspend or terminate accounts where age verification cannot be confirmed.
Kink Link is a community built on the principles of consent, respect, and adult expression. The following rules apply to all users.
You may not post, share, upload, transmit, or otherwise make available any content that:
You may not:
Kink Link is a community grounded in the values of the kink and BDSM community, including the principles of safe, sane, and consensual interaction. While the App facilitates adult expression and connection, all interactions must remain consensual and respectful. Harassment of any member — regardless of their kink identity, gender, orientation, or preferences — will not be tolerated.
Kink Link strictly prohibits any use of the App to advertise, solicit, recruit, entice, or facilitate sex trafficking or the commercial sexual exploitation of any person. This prohibition is absolute. Any user found to be engaging in or facilitating sex trafficking will be immediately and permanently banned and reported to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) and appropriate law enforcement authorities.
Kink Link complies with the Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) and the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA), 18 U.S.C. § 1591 et seq. We cooperate fully with law enforcement investigations related to sex trafficking and will provide records as required by law.
Deleting your account does not immediately erase all records. To support law enforcement cooperation and comply with legal hold obligations, account data is retained for 14 days following a deletion request before being permanently purged. See our Privacy Policy for details.
If you encounter content or behavior that violates these Terms, you are encouraged to report it. You may do so through any of the following channels:
We review all reports and take appropriate action in our sole discretion, which may include warning, suspending, or permanently banning the reported member. We are not obligated to disclose the outcome of any report to the reporting party or to take specific action in response to any particular report.
When a report is submitted through the in-app report button, a snapshot of the reported content and the reported member’s username is automatically preserved at the time of submission. Deleting an account does not erase reports filed against that account or any content captured as part of those reports.
If you choose to meet other members in person, we strongly encourage you to take the following precautions:
Kink Link is not responsible for any harm, injury, loss, or damage arising from in-person meetings or interactions between members. All such meetings are entirely at your own risk. We make no representations about the accuracy of any member’s profile information or the safety of any individual you may meet through the App.
You retain ownership of the content you post to Kink Link, including your profile information, photos, and messages (“Your Content”).
By posting content to Kink Link, you grant Cascade Digital Media LLC a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to store, display, and transmit Your Content solely for the purpose of operating and providing the Service. We do not claim ownership of Your Content and will not use it for advertising, AI or machine learning model training, or any purpose beyond operating the App.
By posting content, you represent and warrant that:
We reserve the right — but not the obligation — to review, remove, or restrict access to any content that we determine, in our sole discretion, violates these Terms or our community standards. We are not liable for our failure to remove content or for content that remains available after a removal request.
Your use of Kink Link is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of your information as described in the Privacy Policy.
A free account provides access to core features of Kink Link, including profile creation, browsing member profiles, sending and receiving direct messages, participating in group chat, and posting in group forums (each subject to a daily limit of 25), and joining existing public groups.
Premium membership unlocks additional features including unlimited messaging, creating groups, and advanced search filters. Premium membership is offered as a recurring subscription billed through our payment processor.
By purchasing a Premium membership, you authorize us to charge the applicable subscription fee to your payment method on a recurring basis at the start of each billing period. Prices are displayed at the time of purchase and may be updated with 30 days’ notice.
You may cancel your Premium subscription at any time through the App or by contacting support@kinklinkapp.com. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You will retain Premium access through the end of the paid period.
All payments are final and non-refundable. We do not provide refunds or credits for partial billing periods, unused subscription time, or any other reason, except where required by applicable law. If you believe a charge was made in error, contact us at support@kinklinkapp.com within 30 days of the charge.
Payments are processed by a third-party payment processor. By making a purchase, you agree to that payment processor’s terms of service. We do not store your full payment card details.
If you have a concern about a charge, please contact us first at support@kinklinkapp.com within 30 days and we will work to resolve it. If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute with your bank or card issuer without first contacting us, we reserve the right to suspend your account pending resolution of the dispute. Chargebacks determined to be fraudulent — including disputes filed for subscription periods that were actively used — may result in permanent account termination and recovery of amounts owed.
During certain phases of operation, access to Kink Link may require a valid invite code. Invite codes are limited in the number of permitted uses and may not be sold, traded, or publicly distributed. We reserve the right to revoke invite codes and limit access at our discretion.
The Kink Link name, logo, design, software, and all content created by Cascade Digital Media LLC are owned by or licensed to us and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from our content without express written permission.
If you provide feedback, suggestions, or ideas about the App, you grant us the right to use that feedback without compensation or attribution to you.
If you believe content on Kink Link infringes your copyright, please send a notice to support@kinklinkapp.com with the following information:
We will respond to valid DMCA notices promptly and will remove or disable access to infringing content where required.
You may delete your account at any time through the App by opening the menu (top left) → My Profile → Delete Profile, or by contacting support@kinklinkapp.com. Deletion is permanent and irreversible.
We may suspend or permanently terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, if we determine that you have violated these Terms, engaged in conduct harmful to the community, or for any other reason at our sole discretion. Termination for cause (e.g., posting prohibited content) will not result in a refund of any unused subscription period.
Upon termination, your right to access the App ceases immediately.
Account deletion is immediate and permanent and cannot be undone. Our Privacy Policy (Section 6) describes in detail what data is deleted immediately, what data may remain in a dissociated form, and what data we are required to retain for legal compliance purposes.
Key points:
Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification) will survive.
We do not warrant that:
You use the App at your own risk. We are not responsible for the conduct of any member, whether online or in person. Any meetings or interactions with other members that you arrange through the App are entirely at your own risk. See Section 5.6 for in-person meeting safety guidance.
Some jurisdictions do not allow exclusion of certain warranties or limitation of liability, so the above limitations may not fully apply to you.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Cascade Digital Media LLC and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from:
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
Before filing any legal claim, you agree to contact us at support@kinklinkapp.com and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. We will attempt to resolve the dispute within 30 days of receiving your notice.
Except as provided in Section 16.4, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the App, or your use of or relationship with Cascade Digital Media LLC that is not resolved through informal resolution under Section 16.2 shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (available at www.adr.org). The arbitration shall be conducted in English.
The arbitrator shall have authority to award any remedy available at law or in equity on an individual basis. The arbitrator may not award declaratory or injunctive relief that affects parties other than you and us individually. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Neither party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties, except as required by law.
Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate in Section 16.3, either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if the claim qualifies. Either party may also seek emergency or temporary injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property or confidentiality rights, pending arbitration.
This arbitration agreement does not apply to a sexual assault dispute or sexual harassment dispute, as those terms are defined by the Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act of 2021 (9 U.S.C. §§ 401–402). At your election, such disputes may be pursued in court rather than through arbitration.
For disputes not subject to arbitration under Sections 16.3 and 16.4, or for enforcement of an arbitration award, any legal action must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Washington State. You consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that any dispute resolution proceedings — whether in arbitration or in court — will be conducted on an individual basis only and not as part of a class, consolidated, or representative action.
You may opt out of the binding arbitration agreement in Section 16.3 by sending written notice to support@kinklinkapp.com within 30 days of the date you first agree to these Terms. Your notice must include your name, the email address associated with your account, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, all other provisions of these Terms remain in full force and effect, and disputes will be resolved as provided in Section 16.5.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Cascade Digital Media LLC regarding the App and supersede all prior agreements.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations without restriction.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, any claim or cause of action arising from or relating to these Terms or your use of the App must be brought within one (1) year of the date on which the claim or cause of action arose. Claims not filed within this period are permanently barred, regardless of any longer period that may be provided by statute or law.
Neither party shall be liable for any delay or failure in performance under these Terms resulting from causes beyond their reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, governmental actions or orders, labor disputes, internet or telecommunications network failures, or failures of third-party service providers (including Supabase, our payment processor, or Expo). The affected party shall promptly notify the other party and use reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable.
Kink Link is an internet platform that facilitates user-generated content. To the extent any user-posted content constitutes a visual depiction of actual sexually explicit conduct as defined under 18 U.S.C. § 2257 and 28 C.F.R. Part 75, Kink Link operates as a secondary producer under those regulations. The primary producers of such content — the users who create and upload it — are responsible for compliance with all applicable record-keeping requirements.
By posting content to Kink Link, you represent and warrant that:
