The Platform allows you to submit, post, and share text, creative writing, comments, and other content ("User Content"). You retain ownership of the intellectual property rights in your User Content.
By posting User Content on Wriloop, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, display, reproduce, and distribute your User Content solely for the purpose of operating and improving the Platform. This license ends when you delete your content or your account, except where copies have been made by other users (such as comments or shares).

When you book a paid session:
Refund Policy: Refund eligibility depends on the specific session and circumstances. Please contact hello@wriloop.com within 48 hours of a completed session if you believe a refund is warranted. We review refund requests on a case-by-case basis and reserve the right to issue or deny refunds at our discretion.
We reserve the right to change pricing at any time. Changes will not affect sessions already booked and paid.
