terms of service

these terms cover your use of passport. plain english, short — read them so you know what to expect from us, and what we expect from you.

1. what passport is

passport is a taste identity — a public profile built from the games, films, series, anime, manga, books, and music you love. you collect what shaped you, mark your favorites (your stars), and share your passport with others.

2. eligibility

you need to be at least 13 to use passport. if you're under 18, you confirm a parent or legal guardian has agreed to these terms on your behalf.

3. accounts

you can sign in with google, discord, or apple, or with a magic link or one-time code sent to your email. you're responsible for keeping your account secure and for activity that happens under it.

4. your content

your library, stars, stashes, ratings, profile copy, and anything else you add to passport belong to you. by posting them, you grant passport a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, display, and process this content as needed to run the service — for example on your public profile, in friends' feeds, or in shared comparisons. we don't claim ownership and we don't use your content for anything outside running passport. the license ends when you remove the content or delete your account.

5. public profiles

your passport at passportdex.com/[username] is public by default. library visibility is set in settings:

  • everyone — anyone with the link sees your full library.
  • friends — only mutuals (people you follow back) see the full library; followers see your passport surface only.
  • only me — your library is hidden; your passport surface stays public.

your passport surface — the profile header, your stars, and the visible covers — stays public regardless of library visibility. if you don't want something to be visible, don't put it there.

6. acceptable use

don't use passport for spam, harassment, hate speech, impersonation, or anything illegal. don't scrape the site, abuse the api, or attempt to disrupt the service. be a decent neighbor.

7. usernames

passport reserves the right to reclaim usernames that are inactive, impersonate someone, are misleading, or violate these guidelines.

8. third-party data and integrations

media metadata — covers, titles, descriptions, credits — comes from igdb/twitch, tmdb, anilist, musicbrainz, google books, openlibrary, the itunes search api, and the cover art archive. when you import a library from steam, letterboxd, anilist, or another connected platform, that data is fetched under each platform's terms. passport doesn't own this data and is grateful to the communities that maintain it.

9. availability

passport is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind. we don't guarantee uptime, uninterrupted service, or that your data will be preserved indefinitely. to the extent allowed by law, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of passport.

10. termination

we can suspend or remove accounts that violate these terms. you can delete your account at any time from your settings — this removes your passport, library, and associated data.

11. changes

we may update these terms from time to time. when we do, we'll update the “last updated” date at the top. continued use of passport after a change means you accept the updated terms.
