Terms of Service | Tamilspoint

Last updated: 25 October 2026

Please read these terms carefully. They explain the rules for using Tamilspoint and for publishing business listings, and what you can expect from us.

1. About these terms

These terms are an agreement between you and Tamilspoint ("Tamilspoint", "we", "us"), based in Zurich, Switzerland. They apply to the website at tamilspoint.com, the Tamils Point app and the Tamils Point Business app (together, the "Services").

By using the Services or creating an account, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services. If you use the Services on behalf of a business, you confirm you are allowed to accept these terms for that business.

2. What Tamilspoint is

Tamilspoint is a directory that helps people find Tamil-owned and Tamil-serving businesses around the world. Businesses publish listings; visitors browse, search and contact them directly. We are not a party to any transaction, booking or agreement between you and a business, and we do not sell the businesses' products or services.

3. Your account

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account.
Give accurate information when you register and keep it up to date.
Keep your password secret and do not share your account. You are responsible for everything done with your account. Tell us straight away at info@tamilspoint.com if you think someone else has used it.
One person or business may not create accounts to get around a suspension or these terms.

4. Business listings

If you add a business listing, you confirm that:

you own or are authorised to represent the business;
the information is true, accurate and current — including its name, address, phone numbers, opening hours, category and description;
you will keep it up to date and correct it or remove it if it stops being accurate;
the business, and what it offers, is lawful where it operates.

5. Review and publication

Every new listing, and every change to a live listing, is reviewed by the Tamilspoint team before it is published. While a change is under review, the listing is not shown publicly.

We may approve a listing, ask for changes (we will tell you why), or decline it. You can fix a listing that needs changes and submit it again.
We may suspend or remove a listing at any time if it breaks these terms, if we receive credible complaints, or if we cannot verify it. We may also edit category placement or formatting to keep the directory consistent.
Approval only means a listing meets our publishing rules. It is not an endorsement or a guarantee of the business, its quality or its information.

6. Your content and photos

You keep ownership of the text, logos and photos you upload ("your content"). You confirm you own them or have permission to use them, and that they do not infringe anyone else's rights — including copyright, trade marks and the privacy of people shown in photos.

You give Tamilspoint a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, resize, display and share your content to run and promote the Services, for as long as it is on the Services and for a reasonable time afterwards (for example in backups). This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except where it has already been shared, or where we must keep it by law.

7. Acceptable use

You must not use the Services to:

post false, misleading, defamatory, hateful, sexually explicit or otherwise unlawful content;
impersonate a business or person, or list a business you do not represent;
post spam, duplicate listings, or content unrelated to the business;
upload malware, or try to access accounts, data or systems you are not authorised to use;
scrape, copy or harvest listings or contact details in bulk, or use them to send unsolicited messages;
interfere with, overload or disrupt the Services;
break any law or encourage others to do so.

8. Dealing with businesses

When you contact or buy from a business found on Tamilspoint, you deal with that business directly. Check details such as prices, opening hours, qualifications and availability with the business before relying on them. Tamilspoint is not responsible for the business's products, services, conduct or information.

9. Paid features

Creating a basic listing is free. We may offer optional paid features, such as featured or premium placement. Their price, duration and any additional terms will be shown to you before you pay, and will apply alongside these terms.

10. Our content and trade marks

The Services, including their design, software, the Tamilspoint name and logo, and content we create, belong to Tamilspoint or its licensors. You may not copy, modify or reuse them except as these terms allow or with our written permission.

11. Suspension and closing your account

You can close your account at any time from the Account screen of the Tamils Point Business app, or by emailing info@tamilspoint.com. Your listings are taken offline immediately and your account is then deleted, as described in our Privacy Policy.

We may suspend or close an account, or take listings offline, if you break these terms, if we must do so by law, or to protect users, businesses or the Services. Where reasonable, we will tell you why.

12. Disclaimer

We work to keep the directory accurate and the Services available, but they are provided "as is" and "as available". Listing information is supplied by businesses, and we do not guarantee that it is complete, accurate or up to date, or that the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free.

13. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Tamilspoint is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost profits or lost data, or for losses arising from your dealings with businesses listed on the Services. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as liability for intent or gross negligence.

14. Your responsibility for your content

If someone makes a claim against Tamilspoint because of content you posted or because you broke these terms, you agree to cover the reasonable costs and losses that result, to the extent permitted by law.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the Services change. We will post the new version on this page with a new "Last updated" date, and tell registered users about significant changes by email or in the apps. If you keep using the Services after a change takes effect, you accept the updated terms.

16. Governing law

These terms are governed by Swiss law. Disputes will be handled by the competent courts at our registered office in Switzerland, unless mandatory consumer protection law in your country gives you the right to bring a claim where you live.
