Welcome to Semblu.com (referred to as “Semblu,” “we,” or “us”). By accessing or using this website (the “Site”), you agree to be bound by the following Terms of Use (“Terms”). These Terms constitute a legal agreement between you (the “user” or “you”) and Semblu regarding the use of our Site. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, please do not use our Site.

  • Age Requirement: You must be at least 13 years old (or older if required by your local law) to use this Site. By using Semblu, you represent that you meet this age requirement. If you are under the age of 18, you should use the Site only with the involvement of a parent or guardian. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 in accordance with applicable laws like COPPA.

  • Changes to Terms: We reserve the right to modify or update these Terms at our sole discretion at any time. If changes are significant, we will provide notice by posting the updated Terms on the Site (or by other reasonable means) at least 30 days before the new Terms take effect. Your continued use of Semblu after any revisions become effective signifies your acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you should discontinue use of the Site.

Permitted Use and User Guidelines

You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use Semblu for your personal, non-commercial use, in compliance with these Terms. We aim to foster a positive and lawful community, so you agree to use our Site only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of or restrict or inhibit the use and enjoyment of the Site by any other person.

Prohibited Activities: By using Semblu, you agree that you will NOT engage in any of the following behaviors:

  • Illegal or Harmful Conduct: Do not use the Site in any way that violates any applicable law or regulation. This includes not posting or transmitting any content that is unlawful, fraudulent, libelous, defamatory, harassing, threatening, hateful, obscene, or otherwise objectionable. You must comply with all applicable laws and refrain from any behavior that could give rise to civil or criminal liability.
  • Infringement of Rights: Do not post content that violates any third party’s intellectual property or other rights. This means you will not upload or share any material that you do not own or have permission to distribute, including text, images, software, or other content protected by copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity or other proprietary rights.
  • Disruption and Unauthorized Access: You must not interfere with or disrupt the operation of the Site or the servers/networks used to make the Site available. No hacking, no introduction of malicious code (viruses, worms, malware), and no attempts to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Site, other users’ accounts, or any systems or networks connected to the Site. Similarly, you agree not to use any device, software, script, or automated process (such as bots, scrapers, or crawlers) to access, monitor, or copy any part of the Site without our prior written consent, except that general-purpose internet search engines may use tools to gather information for the sole purpose of displaying search results.
  • Spam and Commercial Use: Do not use the Site to advertise or sell products/services to others (unless expressly authorized by us). You will not post or transmit unauthorized or unsolicited commercial communications (such as spam, promotional materials, or junk mail). Additionally, you agree not to collect or harvest any information about other users of the Site (including their email addresses) without their consent.
  • Harassment and Impersonation: You shall not engage in personal attacks, bullying, or harassment of other users. Impersonation of any person or entity, or misrepresenting your affiliation with any person or entity, is prohibited. Be courteous and respectful in any interactions on our Site.

Any attempt to discover the source code or algorithms of the Site’s underlying technology is forbidden. Similarly, you must not attempt to circumvent any security or access controls on the Site.

Consequences of Violation: If you violate these guidelines or any other provision of these Terms, we reserve the right to take appropriate action. This may include removing or editing your content, suspending or terminating your access to the Site, and/or taking legal action if necessary. We may also report any unlawful conduct to law enforcement authorities. These rules of use are intended to maintain a safe and lawful environment for all users.

Intellectual Property Rights

Unless otherwise indicated, all content and materials on Semblu (such as articles, text, images, graphics, logos, videos, and design elements) are owned by or licensed to us and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. This includes the overall “look and feel” of the Site and all compilations of content.

  • Our Content: You may access and use the content on Semblu for your personal, non-commercial purposes only. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from our content without our express prior written permission, except as allowed under applicable law (such as brief quotations with proper attribution or uses permitted under fair use). All trademarks, logos, and service marks displayed on the Site are the property of their respective owners (either us or third parties). Semblu’s name, logo, and brand elements are our trademarks and may not be used without permission.
  • Your Limited License to Use: Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited license to view and use the content on our Site for informational purposes. This license does not transfer any ownership or intellectual property rights to you. Any unauthorized use of our content may violate copyright, trademark, and other laws and could result in civil or criminal penalties.
  • Third-Party Materials: Some content on Semblu may be owned by third parties (for example, product images or trademarks of companies mentioned in our product reviews). Such materials remain the property of their respective owners, and your use of those materials may be subject to additional terms from the third-party owners. Our inclusion of such content is for commentary or informational purposes and does not imply any endorsement or partnership with those third parties.

If you believe that any content on our Site infringes your copyrights or other intellectual property rights, please notify us at our contact email (provided in the Contact Us section below) with details. We will investigate and, if appropriate, promptly remove or disable access to the infringing material in accordance with applicable intellectual property laws (such as the DMCA).

User-Generated Content (Comments and Contributions)

Semblu may allow users to contribute content in certain areas of the Site, such as posting comments on blog posts or submitting feedback. While we do not require account registration for commenting, any content you post must adhere to these Terms and our guidelines. By submitting any content on our Site (including comments, feedback, suggestions, or any other material contributed by you):

  • Your Rights and License to Us: You retain ownership of the content that you post. However, by posting or submitting content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, display, and perform that content (in whole or in part) on our Site and in connection with our business. This license allows us to showcase your comments (for example, to display them under our articles), to moderate or edit them if needed, and to use them in promotional or archival materials related to the Site. You also agree that we may allow our other users to access and use your posted content as part of the normal functionality of the Site (for example, others can read your comments, which are publicly displayed). Note: Aside from this license, you retain all rights to your content, and this license does not grant us ownership of your works; it simply gives us permission to use them as described.
  • Your Responsibilities and Warranties: You are solely responsible for any content that you post on Semblu and for any consequences of sharing that content. This means you must ensure that your contributions are lawful and that you have the rights to post them. By submitting content, you represent and warrant that: (i) you are the creator or rightful owner of the content, or have obtained all necessary rights and permissions to post it; and (ii) your content does not infringe or violate the rights of any third party (including intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or any other legal rights) and does not violate any law. You also agree that your posted content will not contain anything defamatory, obscene, offensive, or otherwise violative of our Permitted Use and User Guidelines section above.
  • Comment Moderation: We reserve the right (but not the obligation) to review, monitor, edit, or remove any user-generated content at our discretion. All user comments may be subject to approval by our team before they become visible on the Site. This means when you submit a comment, it may not appear immediately; we will review it and decide whether to approve it for public display or to reject it. Generally, we aim to approve genuine, relevant comments and filter out spam or content that violates these Terms (for example, posts with offensive language or blatant advertising will be rejected). However, we are not responsible for any delay in reviewing comments or for failing to remove specific content. Users remain responsible for the content of their own posts – we simply provide a platform and some oversight, but we do not assume liability for user statements.
  • No Endorsement: User-generated content (such as comments) reflects the views of the contributing users, not necessarily our views. The presence of user content on Semblu does not imply our endorsement of or agreement with those views. We are not liable for any harm or damages arising from user-submitted content, but if you encounter content that you believe violates these Terms or is otherwise problematic, please contact us so we can review it.

By participating in the comment sections or other interactive areas of our Site, you also agree to behave respectfully and follow any additional rules posted there. We may terminate or restrict your ability to post content if you repeatedly violate these Terms or at our sole discretion.

Third-Party Links and Services

Our Site may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Semblu (for example, links to external online stores, manufacturer websites, reference articles, or advertisements served by third parties). These links are provided for your convenience or as part of our content (such as product review links). However, please note that we do not have control over the content, policies, or practices of any third-party websites.

  • No Endorsement or Responsibility: The inclusion of any third-party link on our Site does not imply approval, affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement by Semblu of the linked website or any information, product, or service it contains. We are not responsible for the content or accuracy of any third-party websites, nor for any losses or damages that may arise from your use of them. If you choose to click on an external link and leave our Site, you do so at your own risk and discretion. Once you visit a third-party site, our Terms and Privacy Policy no longer apply; instead, you will be subject to that site’s own terms and policies.
  • Review Third-Party Policies: Because we cannot control the content or security of external sites, we strongly advise you to review the terms of use and privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit through links on our Site. This is especially important if you choose to make any purchases or provide personal information on those external sites. Your transactions and interactions with third-party sites are solely between you and those third parties. Semblu shall not be held liable for any issues arising from dealings you may have with third parties, even if you learned about them through our Site.
  • Third-Party Services and Features: If our Site integrates or makes use of any third-party services (for example, social media sharing features, embedded videos, or a comments plugin), your use of those features may also be governed by the terms of the respective third-party providers. Semblu is not responsible for the functionality or availability of such third-party services, nor for any acts or omissions of those third parties.

In summary, please use caution when following external links. We want our users to have a safe experience, but ultimately you are responsible for understanding when you have left our Site and for using third-party sites in a responsible manner.

Affiliate Disclosure

Semblu participates in one or more affiliate marketing programs. This means some of the links on our Site are “affiliate links,” which contain a tracking code. If you click on an affiliate link and then make a purchase from the linked external site, we may earn a commission or referral fee from that sale, at no additional cost to you.

  • Transparency: We believe in transparency and want you to be aware of our relationships with affiliate partners. The existence of affiliate links on Semblu will be disclosed, either in the context of the relevant content or on this page, in compliance with applicable laws and guidelines (such as the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s rules on endorsements and testimonials). We typically mark or state when a post or section contains affiliate links, and we hereby disclose that Semblu has a financial relationship with certain companies whose products or services are mentioned.
  • No Influence on Objectivity: Our commitment is that any compensation received via affiliate links does not influence the content, topics, or posts we create. We strive to provide honest opinions, findings, and experiences on all products and services we feature. The presence of affiliate links is primarily to help support the maintenance of the Site. We echo the practice of other reputable sites in assuring that our editorial content is not biased by advertisers or affiliate partnerships. In other words, products are recommended based on their merit and usefulness to users, regardless of any potential commission.
  • Amazon Associates Program: Specifically, Semblu.com is a participant in the Amazon Associates Program (an affiliate advertising program). As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. This means that if we link to a product on Amazon and you purchase it, we may receive a commission from Amazon. We are required by Amazon to make this disclosure, and we use the exact phrasing mandated for compliance: “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.”
  • No Additional Cost to You: Using affiliate links on our Site will never add any extra cost to your purchase. The commission we receive is paid by the merchant (such as Amazon or others) as a result of referring customers to them. You pay the same price for the product whether you go through our affiliate link or not.
  • Not Responsible for Third-Party Transactions: Any purchase you make through an affiliate link is solely between you and the external merchant. We do not sell or ship the products directly, and we have no control over the transaction or the customer service provided by the merchant. If you have any issues or questions regarding a product or purchase made through an affiliate link (such as shipping, refunds, or product support), you should contact the merchant or seller directly. Semblu is not liable for any problems arising from your transactions on third-party sites.

We include affiliate links as a way to monetize our content and keep our Site running, but our priority is to maintain your trust. We aim to only participate in affiliate programs for products or services that we have reviewed or that we genuinely believe could be of interest and benefit to our readers. Your support through using our affiliate links is greatly appreciated, but it is entirely your choice. If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships, feel free to reach out to us.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Semblu provides the Site and all content on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis, without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we expressly disclaim all warranties and representations of any kind, whether oral or written, statutory, express, or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade. We do not guarantee that the Site will meet your requirements or that it will achieve any intended results.

Please understand that your use of our Site is at your own risk. While we strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, we make no warranty or representation that the content available on Semblu is complete, accurate, reliable, current, or error-free. We also do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, secure, or free of errors, viruses, or other harmful components.

Some specific disclaimers to note:

  • Informational Content: The articles, reviews, and information on Semblu are for general informational and entertainment purposes. While we endeavor to research and present useful information (for example, tech product specifications, prices, deals, opinions, etc.), we do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any information on the Site. Product prices and availability can change, technology specifications can be updated, and personal opinions may not suit everyone’s needs. Before making decisions based on our content (such as purchasing a gadget or relying on a tip), you should verify critical information independently or consult official sources. We are enthusiasts and reviewers, not certified advisors or professionals in a legal, financial, or health context (and our content should not be taken as professional advice in those domains).
  • No Professional Advice: Any guidance or recommendations we provide (e.g., “this laptop is great for gaming” or “this phone has the best camera for the price”) are purely our editorial opinions. We are not providing professional, financial, or investment advice, and no part of our Site constitutes such advice. Always exercise your own judgment and consider your specific situation when evaluating products or following suggestions from our content.
  • Third-Party Content and Services: We make no warranties regarding any third-party content, services, or products that you may access through Semblu. This includes content in advertisements, affiliate products, or websites linked from our Site. We disclaim responsibility for any third-party offerings; any transactions or interactions you have with third parties are solely at your risk (as noted in the sections above).
  • Technical Reliability: While we have implemented reasonable security measures and strive for high availability, we do not warrant that the Site will function without disruption or imperfections. There may be times when the Site is unavailable due to maintenance, technical issues, or factors beyond our control. We appreciate your understanding in such events, and we will attempt to restore service promptly, but we cannot guarantee any specific uptime or immediate fixes.
  • No Warranty for Harmful Components: Semblu cannot guarantee that our Site, servers, or any email or content sent from us will be free of viruses, malware, or other harmful elements. You are responsible for using up-to-date software and taking precautions (like running antivirus programs) to protect your own device and data. We will not be liable for any damage or loss caused by technologically harmful material that may infect your device due to your use of our Site.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties (for example, in certain cases an implied warranty may be legally required). If such laws apply to you, some of the above disclaimers may not fully apply, and you may have additional rights. In such cases, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. However, in no event do we provide any warranty beyond what is required by law.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Semblu and its owners, affiliates, partners, and employees shall NOT be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages of any kind arising out of or in connection with your use of (or inability to use) our Site or the content contained on our Site. This includes, without limitation, any damages for loss of profits, loss of data, business interruption, personal injury, or emotional distress, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

In particular, we will not be liable for any damages resulting from: (a) your reliance on any information provided on the Site; (b) mistakes, omissions, or errors in content (such as typographical errors or outdated information); (c) the outcome of any decision or action you take based on the information or products featured on Semblu; (d) any unauthorized access to or use of our servers and any personal or financial information stored therein; (e) any bugs, viruses, trojan horses, or other harmful code that may be transmitted to or through our Site by any third party; or (f) any content posted by other users (including any offensive or illegal conduct by third parties).

Our total liability to you for any claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site is limited to the amount (if any) you have paid to us for access to or use of the Site in the 12 months prior to the event giving rise to liability, or USD $100, whichever is less. In many cases, users use our Site for free, and in such cases, no monetary compensation is owed because you have not paid for the service. This limitation is a fundamental element of the agreement between you and us and applies even if any remedy fails of its essential purpose.

Exceptions: Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. In those jurisdictions, our liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law. We do not seek to exclude liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or any other liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law (for example, certain statutory liabilities for personal injury or fraud may not be waivable).

By using this Site, you acknowledge and agree that the above limitations of liability are reasonable and that without these limitations we would not be able to offer you the content and services provided on the Site.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Semblu and its owners, affiliates, partners, and employees (“Released Parties”) from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that arise out of or relate to (i) your use or misuse of the Site, (ii) your violation of these Terms, or (iii) your violation of any rights of a third party or any law while using our Site. This means that if a third party makes a claim against us because of something you did (for example, you posted content that infringes someone’s copyright or you engaged in unlawful conduct via our Site), you will be responsible for any costs or damages we incur as a result of your actions.

The indemnification obligation includes, for example, situations where a user’s comment or content causes harm and a third party sues us – in such case, you agree to cover our costs and damages. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (at your expense), and you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claim. You agree not to settle any such matter without our prior written consent.

This indemnity clause is a standard feature of online service agreements designed to protect service providers from legal issues caused by users’ actions. It ensures that the responsibility for unlawful or harmful content or conduct lies with the user who engaged in it, not the platform that was used. Your obligation to indemnify will survive the termination of these Terms and your use of the Site.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or related to your use of Semblu shall be governed by the laws of India, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. By using this Site, you expressly agree that the laws of India will govern all matters relating to these Terms or your use of the Site. Furthermore, you agree that any legal action or proceeding between you and Semblu related to these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the competent courts located in India (subject to jurisdiction rules), and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

If you access or use the Site from outside of India, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable. We make no representations that the Site or its content are appropriate or available for use in all locations. Those who choose to access Semblu from other jurisdictions do so at their own risk and must abide by all local laws and regulations.

For European Union (EU) Users: If you are a consumer accessing our Site from the European Union, you will also benefit from any mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence. This clause (choosing Indian law) does not deprive you of the protection afforded to you by such provisions. In the event of a conflict between the mandatory laws of your country and the terms of this Governing Law section, the mandatory laws of your country will prevail for matters within their scope.

No Export Control Violations: You represent that you are not located in a country that is subject to any trade embargo or sanction by India, the United States, or other applicable jurisdictions, and that you are not on any government list of prohibited or restricted parties. (For example, U.S. law prohibits use of certain U.S.-based services by individuals in sanctioned countries or by certain specially designated nationals; while Semblu is not a service that falls under export-controlled technology, we include this representation to ensure compliance with international regulations as applicable.)

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. The remaining Terms will remain in full force and effect. If necessary, the parties agree that the court should endeavor to modify the unenforceable provision in a manner that closely reflects the original intent of the parties, to the extent permitted by law.

No Waiver

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver by us of any breach or default by you shall be deemed a waiver of any prior or subsequent breach or default. In other words, if we do not act immediately in response to a violation of these Terms, it does not mean we are giving up any rights (for instance, we may choose to respond later or in a different situation). All waivers must be expressly given in writing by us to be effective.

Entire Agreement

These Terms (together with our Privacy Policy and any other legal notices or guidelines posted on the Site) constitute the entire agreement between you and Semblu concerning your use of the Site, and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, or representations (whether written or oral) regarding the same subject matter. You acknowledge that no oral or written information or advice given by us or our representatives shall create any warranty or obligation not expressly stated in these Terms. Any additional or different terms proposed by you (for example, in any communication) are expressly rejected and will not alter these Terms.

Termination

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Site at any time, with or without notice, for any reason (including, without limitation, if we believe you have violated these Terms). In the event of termination, the provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (such as intellectual property rights, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, and governing law) shall continue in effect. If your use of the Site is terminated, you must cease all use of the Site and destroy any copies of materials from the Site that you have in your possession. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Site.
