Effective Date: March 17, 2026
Last Updated: March 17, 2026

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. By accessing or using TikHub's services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, and our Acceptable Use Policy. If you do not agree, do not use our services. ALL SALES ARE FINAL — NO REFUNDS.

1. Introduction and Overview

TikHub.io ("TikHub," "we," "our," or "us") is a data analytics and integration platform that provides Application Programming Interface ("API") services enabling users to access, analyze, and integrate publicly available data from social media platforms. TikHub is operated by TikHub, LLC, a California limited liability company.

These Terms of Use ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("Customer," "you," or "your") and TikHub governing your access to and use of TikHub's website, APIs, tools, documentation, and all related products and services (collectively, the "Services").

By accessing or using any part of our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Acceptable Use Policy. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization.

1.1 Relationship with Third-Party Platforms

TikHub provides API services for accessing publicly available data across multiple social media and content platforms (collectively, "Supported Platforms"). TikHub is NOT affiliated with, sponsored by, or in any way officially connected with any Supported Platform or their parent companies, subsidiaries, or affiliates.

All platform names, trademarks, service marks, and logos referenced herein are the property of their respective owners. Any reference to Supported Platforms is for identification purposes only and does not imply affiliation or sponsorship. The list of Supported Platforms may change at any time as TikHub adds or removes platform integrations, and such changes do not require amendment to these Terms.

1.2 Data Sources and Legal Basis

TikHub accesses and processes only publicly available data — information that users have voluntarily made accessible to the general public on Supported Platforms without access restrictions. Our data collection practices are designed to comply with applicable laws and regulations across all Supported Platforms. We do not:

Circumvent any technical access controls, authentication mechanisms, or security measures on any Supported Platform

Access private, restricted, or password-protected content on any Supported Platform

Scrape data at rates designed to disrupt or degrade any Supported Platform's services

Access data through compromised or unauthorized credentials

You acknowledge that each Supported Platform has its own terms of service, and TikHub's ability to provide data from any given platform may change at any time due to platform policy changes, technical modifications, or legal requirements.

1.3 Data Access Methodology

TikHub accesses publicly available data from Supported Platforms through lawful means, including public-facing web interfaces, publicly documented APIs, and publicly accessible data feeds. TikHub does not use unauthorized credentials, exploit security vulnerabilities, or circumvent technical access controls (such as CAPTCHA, rate limiting, authentication gates, or IP blocks) to obtain data. Where a Supported Platform modifies its access controls or terms in a way that restricts TikHub's previously available access methods, TikHub will adjust its practices accordingly. TikHub makes no representation that its data access methods are authorized by any Supported Platform.

1.4 Platform Availability and Enforcement

You acknowledge and agree that:

Any Supported Platform may, at any time and for any reason, take actions that restrict, limit, or terminate TikHub's ability to access data from that platform, including but not limited to issuing cease-and-desist notices, modifying technical access controls, or initiating legal proceedings

TikHub shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or disruption arising from any Supported Platform's decision to restrict TikHub's access, and such restriction shall not constitute a breach of these Terms or entitle you to any refund, credit, or compensation

If a Supported Platform restricts TikHub's access, TikHub will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify affected customers within five (5) business days, but makes no guarantee regarding the timeline or method of restoration, if any

TikHub does not guarantee uninterrupted access to data from any specific Supported Platform, and the inclusion of a platform on the Supported Platforms list does not constitute a warranty of continued availability

You should not rely on the continued availability of any specific Supported Platform's data as the sole basis for your business operations

2. Account Registration and Access

To access certain features of our Services, you must create an account. You agree to:

Provide accurate, current, and complete registration information

Maintain the security and confidentiality of your account credentials

Immediately notify TikHub of any unauthorized use of your account

Accept full responsibility for all activities that occur under your account

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction) to create an account and use our Services. TikHub reserves the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, suspend access, or cancel orders at our sole discretion, at any time, and for any reason or no reason, without liability to you. Any such action by TikHub shall not entitle you to a refund.

3. License to Use Services

In the event of a conflict between this policy and mandatory local consumer protection laws, the mandatory local laws shall prevail to the extent required.

6. Service Level and Maintenance

TikHub will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the availability and functionality of the Services. However, TikHub does not guarantee any specific level of uptime, availability, or performance, and the Services are not designed or intended to be fault-tolerant or suitable for mission-critical applications. You acknowledge that:

The Services depend on third-party platforms whose availability is outside TikHub's control

Scheduled maintenance may temporarily suspend access to the Services, and TikHub will provide reasonable advance notice when practicable

Third-party platforms may modify their APIs, terms, or access policies at any time, which may affect the availability or functionality of our Services

Technical support is available on business days during TikHub's standard working hours (Monday through Friday, excluding public holidays) via email at team@tikhub.io. TikHub does not guarantee response times and will address support requests in the order received on a best-effort basis. TikHub reserves the right to charge additional fees for premium or priority support services.

7. Intellectual Property Rights

7.1 TikHub's Intellectual Property

The Services, including all software, APIs, documentation, designs, text, graphics, and other content provided by TikHub, are and shall remain the exclusive property of TikHub and its licensors. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right, title, or interest in TikHub's intellectual property except the limited license expressly granted in Section 3.

8. Privacy and Data Protection

8.1 Privacy Policy

Our collection and use of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Services, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in the Privacy Policy.

8.2 Data Processing

To the extent TikHub processes personal data on your behalf, the parties agree to enter into a separate Data Processing Agreement ("DPA") that complies with applicable data protection laws, including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") and the California Consumer Privacy Act / California Privacy Rights Act ("CPRA"). The DPA is available upon request.

8.3 Data Subject Rights

If you are a data subject located in a jurisdiction that grants data protection rights (such as the EU/EEA, UK, California, or Brazil), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact us at team@tikhub.io. We will respond to verified requests within the timeframes required by applicable law.

8.4 Cross-Border Data Transfers

TikHub may transfer and process data in jurisdictions outside your country of residence. Where required by law, we will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for cross-border data transfers, including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or other legally recognized transfer mechanisms.

What We Do NOT Sell: TikHub will never sell, share, or disclose your personal account information, including but not limited to your email address, password, payment information, API keys, or authentication credentials, to any third party.

What We May Share: TikHub may sell, license, or otherwise make available to third parties aggregated and de-identified data derived from the publicly available content accessed through our API ("Raw Platform Data"). This Raw Platform Data consists solely of the publicly available social media content itself (e.g., public post content, public engagement metrics, public profile information from Supported Platforms).

Important safeguards regarding third-party data sharing:

All customer-identifying information is stripped and excluded before any data is shared with third parties, including but not limited to: your account identity, request IDs, timestamps of your API requests, IP addresses, API keys, usage patterns, and any other metadata that could identify you as the requesting customer

We do not share your API query history, search parameters, or any information that reveals what data you specifically requested

Third parties receiving Raw Platform Data are contractually prohibited from attempting to re-identify individual TikHub customers from the data

Raw Platform Data shared with third parties contains only content that was already publicly accessible on the originating Supported Platform at the time of collection

Your rights regarding data sharing:

You may opt out of having the Raw Platform Data generated through your API requests included in third-party data sales by contacting team@tikhub.io. Note that opting out does not affect data that was already shared prior to your opt-out request

You may request information about the categories of third parties with whom Raw Platform Data has been shared by contacting team@tikhub.io

This section is supplemented by our Privacy Policy, which provides additional details on our data sharing practices. In the event of a conflict between this section and the Privacy Policy, the Privacy Policy shall control.

8.6 International Data Law Compliance

TikHub's Services provide access to data from platforms operating in multiple jurisdictions, each with its own data protection and privacy laws. You acknowledge and agree as follows:

Regarding Chinese Platform Data (Douyin, Xiaohongshu, Bilibili, Weibo, WeChat, Kuaishou, Pipixia, Zhihu):

China's Personal Information Protection Law ("PIPL"), Cybersecurity Law, and Data Security Law impose restrictions on the collection, processing, and cross-border transfer of personal information of individuals in the People's Republic of China

TikHub accesses only publicly available data from these platforms and does not engage in the systematic collection of personal information requiring government security assessments under PIPL Article 38-40

You, as the Customer, are solely responsible for ensuring that your downstream use of any data originating from Chinese platforms complies with PIPL, the Cybersecurity Law, the Data Security Law, and any regulations issued by the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC)

TikHub makes no representation or warranty regarding the compliance of your specific use case with Chinese data protection laws, and you should seek independent legal advice regarding your obligations

If Chinese authorities or platform operators take action that restricts data access, TikHub shall not be liable for any resulting service disruption

Regarding European Platform Data (where applicable):

The European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK Data Protection Act apply to the processing of personal data of individuals in the EU/EEA and UK, regardless of where the processing takes place

Where TikHub transfers personal data outside the EU/EEA, it will rely on appropriate legal mechanisms, including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission

TikHub acknowledges that as a US-based company, US law enforcement may seek access to data under FISA Section 702 or Executive Order 12333, and TikHub will comply with valid legal process while providing transparency to the extent permitted by law

Regarding All Supported Platforms:

Data protection laws vary significantly across jurisdictions, and TikHub cannot provide legal advice on your compliance obligations

You are responsible for conducting your own legal analysis of applicable data protection laws before using data from any Supported Platform

TikHub will cooperate with data protection authorities to the extent required by applicable law

8.7 Data Retention and Deletion

TikHub retains customer account data for the duration of the customer relationship and for a reasonable period thereafter as required for legal, accounting, or business purposes. Upon account termination, TikHub will delete or anonymize your account data within ninety (90) days, except where retention is required by applicable law. You may request earlier deletion of your account data by contacting team@tikhub.io.

9. Confidentiality

Each party (the "Receiving Party") acknowledges that the other party (the "Disclosing Party") may disclose proprietary, confidential, or trade secret information ("Confidential Information"). Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to:

TikHub: Non-public technical specifications, API architecture, pricing models, business strategies, and customer lists

Customer: Non-public data provided to TikHub for service provisioning, API keys, and authentication credentials

The Receiving Party agrees to: (a) protect Confidential Information using at least the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information, but no less than reasonable care; (b) use Confidential Information only for the purposes of performing under these Terms; and (c) not disclose Confidential Information to third parties except as required for service performance or as compelled by law (with reasonable advance notice to the Disclosing Party where legally permitted).

10. Security

TikHub implements commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to protect the Services and your data. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You acknowledge that:

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your API keys, access tokens, and account credentials

You must notify TikHub immediately at team@tikhub.io upon discovering any unauthorized access to or use of your account

TikHub is not liable for losses arising from your failure to safeguard your credentials

In the event of a confirmed security incident affecting your account data (not including publicly available data obtained through the Services), TikHub will: (a) notify you in accordance with applicable law; (b) take commercially reasonable steps to contain and remediate the incident; and (c) cooperate with you to address the impact. TikHub's sole obligation and your sole remedy with respect to any security incident shall be limited to the foregoing notification and remediation efforts. TikHub shall not be liable for any security incident resulting from your failure to maintain adequate security of your own systems, credentials, or data.

11. Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TIKHUB EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT
ANY WARRANTIES REGARDING THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY, OR TIMELINESS OF DATA OBTAINED THROUGH THE SERVICES
ANY WARRANTIES THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS
ANY WARRANTIES REGARDING THE CONTINUED AVAILABILITY OF DATA FROM THIRD-PARTY PLATFORMS

TikHub does not warrant that data obtained through the Services is accurate, complete, current, or fit for any particular purpose, and assumes no responsibility for errors, omissions, delays, or inaccuracies in any data or content. You acknowledge that publicly available data may be modified, deleted, or made private by content creators or Supported Platforms at any time, and TikHub has no obligation to verify, update, or correct data after it has been delivered through the API. Any reliance on data obtained through the Services is at your sole risk.

12. Limitation of Liability

12.1 Exclusion of Certain Damages

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL TIKHUB, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, GOODWILL, OR REVENUE, WHETHER ARISING FROM CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF TIKHUB HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TIKHUB'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY YOU TO TIKHUB IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; OR (B) ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD $100).

For the avoidance of doubt, the exceptions in this Section 12.3 apply only to your obligations and do not expand TikHub's liability beyond the caps set forth in Section 12.2.

12.4 Jurisdictional Limitations

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liability. In such jurisdictions, TikHub's liability shall be limited to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law.

13. Indemnification

If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, you and TikHub agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in English, and the seat of arbitration shall be the State of California. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

14.4 Class Action Waiver

YOU AND TIKHUB AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Unless both parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person's or party's claims.

14.5 Exceptions

Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights.

15.1 Term

These Terms are effective upon your first access to or use of the Services and continue until terminated by either party.

You breach any provision of these Terms

You engage in any prohibited use described in Section 4

16. General Provisions

16.1 Modifications to Terms

TikHub reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time at its sole discretion. For material changes, TikHub will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice by email or by posting a notice on our website, but failure to provide such notice shall not affect the validity of the updated Terms. Your continued use of the Services after any modification constitutes your irrevocable acceptance of the updated Terms as of the date of modification.

16.2 Modifications to Services

TikHub reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time, with or without notice, and for any reason or no reason, at its sole discretion.

The invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving the parties' original intent.

16.5 No Waiver

The failure of TikHub to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by TikHub.

16.6 Assignment

16.14 Relationship of the Parties
