1. Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using Spill ("the App"), or by sending a message through a Spill web link, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service
("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the App or send messages through Spill links.
2. Description of Service
Spill is a messaging platform that allows users to:
- Create a personal link to receive messages
- Share that link on social media platforms
- Receive messages from anyone with the link
- View sender hints (device, location, network, referral source) with PRO
- Block and report abusive senders
Spill consists of a mobile app (for message recipients) and a web page (for message senders). Senders do not need to install the app.
