These KuronekoServer Nyan Streaming Terms of Service (the “Terms”) set forth the conditions of use for all Nyan Streaming services (the “Service”) provided by the KuronekoServer Operations Team (the “Operations Team”).

Any person who uses the Service (the “User”) must use the Service in accordance with these Terms.

Article 1 (Applicability of the Terms)

  1. These Terms apply to all relationships between the User and the Operations Team concerning the use of the Service.
  2. The Operations Team may separately establish terms that set out usage conditions in addition to these Terms (the “Individual Provisions”). Regardless of their name, such Individual Provisions constitute part of these Terms.
  3. If there is any discrepancy between the Individual Provisions and these Terms, the Individual Provisions shall prevail unless otherwise specified.
  4. Copyright in all data and other content belongs to each respective author. If an author’s terms of use or other rules conflict with these Terms, the author’s terms shall prevail.

Article 2 (Prohibited Acts)

In using the Service, the User must not engage in any of the following acts:

  1. Acts that interfere with, or attempt to interfere with, the operation of the Service, KuronekoServer (the “Organization”), or services provided by third parties through the facilities of the Service.
  2. Acts that use the Service in a manner that may result in the global IP address used for IP communications being blacklisted, or that may otherwise worsen the Organization’s reputation or credit standing.
  3. Acts that place unnecessary load on the Organization’s facilities (network facilities, server facilities, etc.), whether intentionally or negligently, and thereby impair service quality or the ability of upstream providers to deliver their services.
  4. Acts that intentionally use the Service in a manner that satisfies the requirements for a disclosure request under the Act on the Limitation of Liability for Damages of Specified Telecommunications Service Providers and the Right to Demand Disclosure of Sender Information (the “Provider Liability Limitation Act”), or acts that may lead to such use.
  5. Acts that exhaust resources due to unauthorized traffic (communications) from external or internal sources, thereby interfering with normal traffic of Users, etc.
  6. Acts that alter or tamper with information used in IP network services, or acts that may do so.
  7. Unauthorized access to the Service, attempts to do so, or transmitting information containing harmful computer programs.
  8. Acts that violate laws and regulations in Japan, or acts that encourage illegal conduct.
  9. Acts of posting or sending information that may cause others extreme disgust under common social norms, such as information about murder scenes, cruel content, images of animal abuse, or other similar content.
  10. Acts that involve any interaction or involvement with anti-social forces (gangs, gang members, right-wing groups, anti-social forces, or other similar entities; the same applies hereinafter), including cooperating with or participating in their maintenance, operation, or management.
