Terms of Service

· By the TopShortDramas editorial team

Welcome to TopShortDramas. By accessing or using this website, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use the site.

1. About this website

TopShortDramas is an independent comparison and review website covering short drama streaming applications. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by any of the apps or services we review. All information is provided for general informational purposes only.

1a. We are a website, not an app

TopShortDramas is a site you are reading, not software you installed. We do not make, publish or run any of the apps described here, and none of the companies behind them employs us or tells us what to write.

The practical part matters more than the principle. Nothing on this site holds an account for you. There is no wallet, no coin balance, no daily reward, no referral bonus and no cash-out, because we sell nothing to viewers and take no money from them. We also have no window into any app’s systems: we cannot look up your subscription, stop it renewing, return a payment, unlock an episode, or release a balance an app is holding.

When money is involved, the party that took it is the party that can return it. That is the app’s developer, reachable through its page on the App Store or Google Play, or the store itself, which processes refunds for anything bought through it. If you believe something on this site misled you, section 8a explains how to tell us.

2. Advertising and affiliate disclosure

This website contains affiliate links. When you click a link to a third-party app or service and download, register or make a purchase, we may receive a commission from that provider. This comes at no additional cost to you. Compensation we receive may influence which services appear on the site and their placement, but our scores and reviews reflect our own testing and opinions.

3. No warranties

This website and its content are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the information on this site is accurate, complete or current, or that the site will be available without interruption. Prices, free-content allowances and features of third-party services can change at any time.

3a. A score is a judgement, not a promise

Every number, position and “best for” label here is a judgement we formed from what we could see on the date printed on the page. None of it promises that an app will be well made, safely run, fairly priced, honest about billing, or willing to pay out anything it advertises. None of it is advice to spend money.

Where we have used a service ourselves, the page says so. Where we have only read its store listing, its own site and its user reviews, the page says that instead and the score is marked provisional. Treat the two differently, because we do.

Short drama apps change prices, free allowances and catalogues frequently and quietly. What we published describes a moment, with the date and the source beside it. The figure you will actually be charged is the one shown in the app at the moment you pay.

4. Third-party services

Any relationship you enter into with a third-party app or service — including downloads, subscriptions, coin purchases and billing — is solely between you and that provider and is governed by their own terms and policies. We are not a party to those transactions and accept no liability arising from them. Please review a provider's terms, prices and cancellation policy before paying.

5. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, TopShortDramas and its owners, operators and affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or special damages arising out of or in connection with your use of this website or any third-party service linked from it.

5a. Rights you keep regardless

Nothing above excludes or limits anything the law does not allow us to exclude or limit — among them liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, and liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

If you are a consumer, the mandatory protections given to you by the law of the country you live in continue to apply in full. Where this document and those protections disagree, those protections win.

6. Intellectual property

The content of this website (texts, layout, design) belongs to TopShortDramas unless stated otherwise. All third-party app names, logos and trademarks are the property of their respective owners and are used for identification and review purposes only.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse this website, including attempting to gain unauthorized access, scraping content at scale, or using the site for any unlawful purpose.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms of Service at any time. Continued use of the website after changes are published constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

8a. If you want to complain

Complaints divide into two kinds, and sending the wrong kind to us only costs you time.

A complaint about an app — money taken, a subscription that will not stop, a reward that never arrived, a withdrawal that will not clear — has to go to the developer of that app, through its listing on the App Store or Google Play. If the developer ignores you, the store’s own support handles refunds for purchases made through it. We have no standing in that conversation and no way to act inside it.

A complaint about this site — a figure you believe is wrong, a page you believe is out of date, a judgement you believe is unfair — comes to support@topshortdramas.com. Tell us which page, which app, what you think is wrong and when you saw it; if money is involved, add the amount, the date and who charged you. We compare what we published against the source we cited and change whatever turns out to be wrong, with a new date on the page. We will not delete a finding that is accurate, and we will not rewrite history quietly. We try to answer anything actionable within two working days, and doing so admits nothing.
