Terms for collectors

This is a plain-English summary of how nommo works for collectors, not a substitute for your own legal advice.

1. What "buy once, own forever" means

When you buy a work on nommo, you get a permanent personal license to keep and enjoy that specific work -- no subscription, no expiring access, no revoked license. It means you can listen, watch, read or view it whenever you like, for as long as nommo exists. It does not automatically transfer the underlying copyright to you -- you're not buying the right to resell, redistribute, publicly perform, or commercially use the work unless the creator has explicitly said otherwise.

2. Free previews aren't the product

Before you buy, you can watch or listen to a short clip, read an excerpt, or take a measured glance at an image, free and without an account. That preview exists so you know what you're paying for -- the full work only unlocks once you buy it.

3. Devices and account sharing

Your nommo account is for you. To help prevent casual password sharing (the exact thing that hollows out independent creators' income), streaming access is tied to a small set of devices registered to your account, capped at five. If you need to free up a slot, you can remove an old device from your account settings. Deliberately circumventing device limits or sharing login credentials so others can access your purchases without buying them themselves is a violation of these terms.

4. Lending and gifting

You can lend a work you own to someone else for a set period (7, 14, or 30 days), or gift it to them permanently. No file ever leaves nommo's systems -- it's a transfer of access, not a copy. While a work is on loan, your own access to it pauses, exactly like handing over a physical copy; it returns automatically when the loan ends. A gift is permanent and can't be undone once the recipient claims it.

5. Refunds

Because a purchase grants permanent access rather than a shippable good, refunds are handled case by case -- generally available within 48 hours of purchase if you haven't meaningfully accessed the full work, at nommo's discretion. Contact support to request one.

6. No redistribution

Ripping, re-uploading, or otherwise redistributing a work you've bought (including the portion you access via lending or gifting) is a violation of these terms and of the creator's rights, and may result in account termination.

7. Raves and playlists

You can post a public "rave" (a short note of appreciation) and build playlists from works you actually own or created. This is meant to be a real signal of what's worth collecting, not a marketing feed -- only owners and creators can rave about a given work.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as nommo grows. Material changes will be posted here with an updated date; continued use of nommo after a change means you accept the update.
