Terms of Service
Last updated: 2026-05-25
By accessing or using StashlyVN ("the service", "we", "our"), you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, leave the site.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher) to use this service. By using the site you affirm that you meet this requirement. We use an age-gate but cannot verify ages individually.
2. What StashlyVN is
StashlyVN is an aggregator of publicly available adult visual novels. We:
- Index game metadata (title, developer, tags, screenshots) from public sources like itch.io.
- Generate editorial summaries via AI for SEO / discovery purposes.
- Link to each game's official developer page for downloads. We do not host game files.
- Optionally feature creator-paid placements clearly labeled "Featured".
We are not the developer or publisher of the games we list. All games belong to their respective creators.
3. Acceptable use
You may not:
- Use the service if you are under 18.
- Scrape, mirror, or republish our content without written permission.
- Submit spam, malicious URLs, or harassment in comments.
- Attempt to bypass security (rate limits, age-gate, DDoS).
- Use the service for unlawful purposes in your jurisdiction.
4. User-submitted content (comments, ratings)
When you post a comment or rating, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display it on the site. You retain ownership of your content. You are solely responsible for what you post. We may remove content that violates these Terms or applicable law.
5. Intellectual property
Game titles, cover art, screenshots, and descriptions are property of the respective developers. They appear here under fair-use / promotional principles. If you are a rightsholder and want content removed, see our DMCA page.
Editorial summaries generated by StashlyVN are released under CC BY-SA 4.0 — attribution required if reproduced.
6. Featured placements (paid)
Developers may pay for a "Featured" badge and homepage placement on a per-month basis. Featured placements are clearly labeled "paid placement". Featured status does not affect the editorial AI summary content or the rating system.
7. No warranties / Disclaimer
The service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee accuracy of game metadata, availability of linked downloads, or uninterrupted service. We are not responsible for content on linked third-party sites (itch.io, developer Patreons, etc.).
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, StashlyVN and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service. Total liability is capped at €100 or the amount you paid us in the last 12 months, whichever is greater.
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify StashlyVN and its operators against claims arising from your violation of these Terms or your use of the service.
10. Termination
We reserve the right to terminate access for any user violating these Terms, without notice. You may stop using the service at any time.
11. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by Spanish law. Disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Bizkaia, Spain, except where consumer-protection law requires otherwise.
12. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be announced via a site banner for 14 days. Continued use after the change constitutes acceptance.
