Welcome to Shucks. By using our app, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
Shucks is a personal oyster tasting journal that allows you to log tastings, discover oysters, and track your favorites. The service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind.
You must sign in with Google or Apple to use Shucks. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account. You may delete your account at any time through the profile menu in the app.
You retain ownership of all content you create in the app, including tasting notes, ratings, and photos. By using the app, you grant us a limited license to store and display your content solely for the purpose of providing the service to you.
You agree not to:
Shucks has zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. There are no warnings and no exceptions.
You may not post content that is offensive, obscene, sexually explicit, hateful, violent, harassing, threatening, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable, and you may not engage in abusive behavior toward other users, including harassment, hate speech, impersonation, or spam. We have zero tolerance for child sexual abuse or exploitation, which we remove and report to the authorities. Our Community Guidelines describe what is not allowed in full detail and form part of these terms.
Reporting and blocking. Every post and every profile has a menu that lets you report objectionable content or block an abusive user. Blocking takes effect immediately: you and the blocked user are unfollowed from each other and their content disappears from your feed. Reports are anonymous.
Our response. We review every report and act within 24 hours — removing the offending content and terminating the account of the user who posted it. We may remove any content and suspend or permanently terminate any account at our sole discretion, with or without notice.
To report content or a user outside the app, email us at support@myshucks.com.
The Shucks name, logo, and app design are our property. The oyster database and related content are provided for personal use within the app.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Shucks and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service.
We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these terms, including immediate termination for posting objectionable content or abusing other users. You may stop using the service at any time by deleting your account.
We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
