Terms of use

Effective September 21, 2026. These terms describe permitted use of Interplanetary and this website, provided by Shokunin. Separate licenses accompanying third-party components continue to apply to those components.

Use content you have permission to use

Interplanetary is a general-purpose file access and sharing tool. It does not grant rights to files found on the Internet. You are responsible for ensuring that your downloading, copying, caching and sharing comply with applicable law and the rights of others. Public availability, a content hash, ownership of a physical copy or the age of a work does not by itself establish permission to redistribute it.

Do not use the app or our services to infringe copyright, distribute unlawful material or malware, expose another person's private information, bypass access controls without authorization, or interfere with other systems. We do not authorize or encourage these uses.

Independent sources and peers

You choose the collections and sources you access. Files are supplied by those sources or independent peers; we do not warrant their accuracy, safety, licensing, compatibility or continuing availability. The app includes no commercial games, BIOS files or entitlement to third-party content. Links and identifiers are not endorsements.

Sharing and storage

Network use can consume bandwidth and disk space. IPFS peers may observe your network address and requested identifiers. Shared or cached IPFS content may be served to others. Only enable sharing for content you are entitled to distribute, and do not treat public peer-to-peer storage as private. Copies already obtained by others cannot be recalled by removing your local copy.

Keep independent backups. The app's cache and offline-retention features are not a backup guarantee. Downloads can fail, sources can change, and uncached files require an available source and a running provider.

Software permission and third-party licenses

You may install and use the distributed app for lawful purposes. Except where a separate license or applicable law permits it, these terms do not grant permission to redistribute modified app binaries, use our branding to imply endorsement, or claim ownership of the app. Third-party components retain their own licenses and notices.

Warranties and liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the app and website are provided as available, without warranties of uninterrupted operation, fitness for a particular purpose or freedom from errors. To the same extent, the provider is not liable for indirect or consequential loss, lost profits, lost data or interruption arising from use of the app or independent third-party sources. These provisions do not exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or restrict mandatory consumer rights.

Our services and reports

We may restrict access to services we operate in response to abuse or unlawful conduct, subject to applicable law. We can act only on resources we control; we cannot remove content from independent peers or revoke their copies. See copyright and abuse reports and privacy information.
