You accept these Terms when you:

• Register a VideoCall.cc account;
• Create a meeting as a guest or registered user;
• Join a meeting as a guest or registered user;
• Download, install, or use the VideoCall.cc mobile application;
• Access any page or feature of the Service.

If you are using the Service on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation to these Terms, and references to "you" include that organisation.

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. See Section 17 for details on how we notify you of material changes.

VideoCall.cc provides a browser-based video meeting platform with the following core features:

• Instant Rooms — create a meeting and receive a shareable link or room code immediately, with no software download required.
• Guest Access — create or join meetings without a registered account by providing a display name.
• Registered Accounts — a dashboard for creating, scheduling, sharing, and managing meetings; meeting history; and profile management.
• Scheduled Meetings — meetings can be set for a future time with a defined duration. They open at the scheduled time and close automatically after the scheduled end plus a grace period.
• Sharing — every meeting can be shared via link, copyable ID, QR code, email, guest link, or the device's native share sheet.
• Real-Time Communication — video, audio, screen sharing, and in-call chat are delivered via Community Jitsi Servers (see Section 7).

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time with or without notice, subject to Section 17.

4.1 Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age (or the applicable minimum age of digital consent in your jurisdiction) to create a VideoCall.cc account. We do not currently operate an age verification mechanism. By registering, you represent that you meet this age requirement. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you must obtain parental or guardian consent.

4.2 Account Creation

To register, you must provide your first name, last name, a valid email address, and a password. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information. The email address you provide will be used as your account identifier and is stored in lowercase.

4.3 Account Security

You are solely responsible for:

• Maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account credentials.
• All activity that occurs under your account, whether or not authorised by you.
• Notifying us promptly if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.

We store passwords as bcrypt hashes and never retain your plaintext password. You must choose a strong password and must not share your credentials. We will never ask for your password in an email or support communication.

4.4 One Account Per Person

Each email address may be associated with one VideoCall.cc account. Registering multiple accounts to circumvent restrictions, abuse the Service, or for deceptive purposes is prohibited.

4.5 Authentication Tokens

Upon login, you receive a JSON Web Token (JWT) that expires after 24 hours. This token is stored in your browser's localStorage and used to authenticate API requests. You are responsible for the security of devices on which your token is stored.

VideoCall.cc permits use of the Service without creating an account. Guests may create or join meetings by providing a display name (and, optionally, an email address). By using the Service as a guest, you agree to these Terms in full.

Guest capabilities include:

• Creating a meeting room and receiving a guest meeting token (24-hour expiry).
• Joining an existing meeting via a shared link, meeting code, or QR code.
• Participating in video, audio, and in-call chat through the embedded Jitsi room.
• Ending a meeting (if the guest is the meeting creator).

Guests do not have access to: a personal dashboard, meeting history, meeting scheduling, or profile management. These features require a registered account.

Guest display names and optional email addresses are stored on the meeting record. See the Privacy Policy for full details.

6.1 Meeting Creation

When you create a meeting, you become the Meeting Creator and moderator of that meeting. You are responsible for:

• All content shared within the meeting, including decisions about who is invited.
• Setting an appropriate meeting title, description, and optional password.
• Ending the meeting when appropriate (using the End control in the room).

6.2 Meeting Passwords

Meetings may be protected with an optional password chosen by the creator. Meeting passwords are stored as part of the meeting record. The password is returned only to the meeting creator via the API — it is never exposed to other participants or guests. You must not share meeting passwords with unauthorised parties.

6.3 Meeting Lifecycle

A meeting may be ended by:

• The meeting creator manually ending it from the room controls.
• Automatic closure after approximately 3 minutes of inactivity (no heartbeat signals received).
• Automatic closure at the scheduled end time (start time + duration + grace period) for scheduled meetings.

After a meeting ends, its metadata persists in the system as a historical record visible to the creator.

6.4 Scheduled Meetings

Scheduled meetings open at the specified start time and display a countdown timer to participants who arrive early. They auto-close after the scheduled end. VideoCall.cc is not responsible if technical issues prevent a meeting from opening or closing at its scheduled time.

6.5 Community Jitsi Server Assignment

At meeting creation, your meeting is assigned to a Community Jitsi Server from our curated pool. If that server becomes unreachable, your meeting may be migrated (failed over) to another healthy server. You acknowledge that the quality and availability of real-time communication depends on the Community Jitsi Server and your network conditions.

6.6 Participant Visibility

Your display name (and, for registered users, profile information visible in the room) is visible to all other meeting participants. Meeting participant lists are accessible to the meeting creator.

By using a meeting room, you acknowledge and agree that:

• Your real-time meeting communications are processed by third-party Community Jitsi Servers, not by VideoCall.cc.
• The privacy practices, data processing, and terms of service of those Community Jitsi Servers govern the processing of your Meeting Content.
• VideoCall.cc does not record, store, monitor, or have access to your Meeting Content.
• VideoCall.cc does not guarantee the uptime, performance, security, or privacy practices of any Community Jitsi Server.
• If a Community Jitsi Server experiences an outage or security incident, VideoCall.cc bears no responsibility for the consequences.
• Failover to a different Community Jitsi Server may occur during a meeting if the assigned server becomes unreachable.

VideoCall.cc maintains a curated pool of Community Jitsi Servers and performs health checks, but inclusion in our pool does not constitute endorsement of or warranty regarding those servers' practices.

You agree not to use the Service for any of the following purposes:

• Conducting, facilitating, or participating in any unlawful, illegal, or fraudulent activity in any jurisdiction.
• Transmitting, distributing, or sharing content that is harmful, abusive, defamatory, obscene, hateful, sexually explicit, or that exploits or endangers minors.
• Harassing, threatening, bullying, stalking, or intimidating any individual or group.
• Impersonating any person, organisation, or entity, or misrepresenting your identity or affiliation.
• Uploading, transmitting, or linking to malware, viruses, ransomware, or any code designed to interrupt, damage, or unauthorisedly access systems or data.
• Attempting to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Service, any account, or any backend system.
• Scraping, crawling, or systematically extracting data from the Service using automated means without our express written permission.
• Interfering with or disrupting the Service, its infrastructure, servers, or networks, including denial-of-service attacks.
• Reselling, sublicensing, or commercially exploiting any feature of the Service without our express written permission.
• Circumventing security measures, including attempting to reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service.
• Using the Service to spam, phish, or distribute unsolicited commercial messages.
• Violating the intellectual property rights of any third party, including by sharing copyrighted content without permission.
• Using the Service in a manner that violates the terms or acceptable use policies of any Community Jitsi Server.
• Creating multiple accounts to evade restrictions, suspensions, or bans.
• Recording, intercepting, or capturing meeting communications without the knowledge and consent of all participants (where required by law).
• Using the Service for any purpose that would expose VideoCall.cc to legal liability or reputational harm.

Violation of these prohibitions may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account and may be reported to relevant authorities.

12.4 Guest Sessions

Guest meeting tokens expire after 24 hours. Guests do not have persistent accounts and are not subject to account termination; however, guests may be removed from individual meetings by the meeting creator, and access may be blocked at our discretion.

In particular, VideoCall.cc makes no warranties or representations regarding:

• Availability — the Service may be unavailable from time to time due to maintenance, outages, or circumstances beyond our control.
• Community Jitsi Server performance — we do not warrant the uptime, quality, security, or continuity of any Community Jitsi Server. Meeting quality (video resolution, audio clarity, latency) depends on factors outside our control, including your network, device, and the third-party server.
• Data security — while we implement reasonable security measures, we cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the internet or stored in our systems.
• Accuracy — we do not warrant that any information provided through the Service is accurate, complete, or current.
• Uninterrupted access — access to the Service may be suspended or restricted at any time for maintenance, upgrades, or security purposes.
