Citation Rules
When quoting videos, images, or text, the source must be clearly stated. This applies even if the original author has indicated that attribution is not required.
When using screenshots from games, anime, or manga in content, the copyright holder must be credited. Using such material without permission on the grounds that "it is used on other sites too" is not allowed.
Content without proper attribution is subject to deletion. Accounts that repeatedly infringe on copyrights will be deleted, and particularly egregious infringement will be considered a serious breach of Rollpie's trust.
Prohibited Account Operations
Even if individual posts cannot be definitively deemed inappropriate, accounts operated for the following purposes will be deleted:
- Promoting extremely biased political views
- Spreading celebrity gossip
- Aggregating content from other websites
- Selling expensive or fraudulent information products
"Celebrities" refers to politicians, television personalities, people active on social media, business executives, and similar figures. Accounts that actively aggregate posts about celebrities, or whose posts consist mostly of opinions about celebrities, are subject to deletion. Proactiveness and maliciousness are the criteria for deletion.
Accounts that repeatedly post "roundups" or "reaction compilations" from anonymous message boards will be deleted. The same applies to accounts that repeatedly post Pies consisting solely of aggregated posts from X (formerly Twitter).
Expensive information products are those priced at 100,000 yen or more per item. Even if not expensive, information products related to reselling or dating are considered fraudulent, and accounts whose primary purpose is to promote such products will be deleted.
Copyright of User Content
The copyright of User Content belongs to the Account User who created it. Account Users may publish the same content on media other than Rollpie.
Account Users grant Rollpie a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to distribute User Content on Rollpie. This license includes:
- The right to distribute such content free of charge even if Rollpie introduces a subscription billing system
- The right to use such content for promotional activities
When Rollpie runs advertisements, portions of User Content may be quoted within those advertisements. For example, Rollpie may use an Account User's work in advertisements without prior approval. In such cases, the Account User may not claim compensation from Rollpie.
Business Transfer
If the Operator transfers Rollpie to a third party (including corporate reorganization), the agreements between the current Operator and Users under these Terms of Service and Privacy Policy will be transferred as-is to the new Operator.
Disclaimer

Rollpie does not guarantee the legality, completeness, accuracy, or safety of User Content, advertisements, or external links. Users use these at their own risk. Rollpie and the Operator are not liable for any damages resulting from the use of these.
Disputes Between Users or with Third Parties
Rollpie is not responsible for disputes between Users or between Users and third parties.
Losses from Account Deletion or Service Termination

Even if Users suffer losses due to Rollpie terminating all or part of its services, Rollpie has no obligation to provide restitution, damages, or compensation for such losses.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms of Service are governed by the laws of Japan. For disputes between Users and the Operator, the Tokyo District Court shall be the court of exclusive jurisdiction in the first instance.
