Terms and Conditions

1. Introduction

Please read these Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) carefully, as they apply to your use of this website and mobile application (the “Platform”) and any related steps or procedures. The contracting entity is Ztor Limited (“Ztor,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a limited company incorporated in Hong Kong. By using this Platform, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms. As the Platform continues to develop, new services and features may be added. If any additions affect these Terms, we may amend them accordingly. We reserve the right to modify or replace these Terms at any time. Any changes take effect once posted on the Platform. Your continued use of the Platform constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

2. Registration

To access certain parts of the Platform, you may be required to register. When registering, you must:

  • Ensure only one registration per person.
  • Provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date information.
  • Refrain from providing any false or misleading information.
  • Not impersonate or attempt to impersonate another person.
  • Safeguard any username and password we provide to you.
  • Authorize us to assume that anyone using your username and password is either you or someone you have authorized.

If you believe someone else may have access to your login ID or password, you must notify us immediately by emailing via the “Contact Us” page. If you authorize any person to act for you in relation to the Platform’s use, you must ensure they comply with these Terms at all times. We reserve the right to disable any login ID at any time if, in our opinion, you have violated these Terms or if any registration details you provided are proven false.

3. Access

  • It is your responsibility to ensure your computer system meets and is compatible with all necessary technical specifications to access and use the Platform.
  • From time to time, we may restrict or disable access to certain features, parts, or content of the Platform—even for registered users.
  • While we strive to minimize disruptions caused by technical errors, we cannot guarantee continuous, uninterrupted, or error-free operability. The Platform, or any of its features, may become unavailable (scheduled or unscheduled), modified, suspended, or withdrawn at our sole discretion, without notice. You agree that we will not be liable to you or any third party for any unavailability, modification, suspension, or withdrawal of the Platform or its features.
  • We are not responsible if you cannot access the Platform properly due to events outside our control (e.g., performance issues with your ISP, browser, device, or the Internet).

4. Transactions Concluded Through the Platform and Credits

Through this Platform, we facilitate payment transactions for the purchase of credits (“Popcorns”) used to view movies, dramas, mini/short movies, and mini/short dramas (each, collectively, the “Content”).

4.1. Purchase of Popcorns

  • Each Content item is priced in Popcorns. You must purchase and consume Popcorns through sales channels recognized by Ztor in order to use specific Platform features (e.g., viewing Content).
  • All Popcorns and Popcorn bundle packages (“Popcorn Packages”) are non-refundable and cannot be redeemed for cash.
  • All Popcorns you purchase will automatically expire 12 months from the date of purchase. If you make a successful subsequent purchase within those 12 months (“Subsequent Purchase”), the expiry date for all outstanding Popcorns will be extended by an additional 12 months from the date of the Subsequent Purchase.
  • You can view your Popcorn balance by logging into the Platform and clicking “My Popcorns” at the top of any page.

4.2. Payments

  • Your payment method and any other information needed to bill your account for Popcorn purchases (collectively, “Billing Information”) will be collected by an independent third-party payment processor selected by Ztor (“Payment Processor”).
  • If Ztor has access to your Billing Information, we will use it in accordance with our Privacy Policy. However, any use of your Billing Information by a Payment Processor is governed by that processor’s own privacy policy. Ztor will not be responsible or liable for any data breach or failure by a Payment Processor to comply with its privacy policy.
  • To change your payment method (for example, if your credit card expires or you want to use a different card), log in to your account and edit your payment details. The Payment Processor may verify your information by processing an authorization hold, which is standard practice. You acknowledge that you will be charged immediately for any Popcorns or Popcorn Packages you purchase, and that all such charges are non-refundable.

4.3. Promotional Offers and Free Popcorns

  • From time to time, we may offer special promotions, including free Popcorns. Any such promotional “Offers” are subject to eligibility criteria determined solely by Ztor. We reserve the right to revoke any Offer and place your account on hold if we determine you are ineligible.
  • All free Popcorns issued under an Offer expire 12 months from the date of issuance.

Refund of Unused Popcorns (Applicable to Taiwan Users Only)

For purposes of this clause, “Unused Popcorns” means Popcorn that you have purchased with real money and which has been successfully credited to your Popcorn account, and which has not yet been redeemed for any content or services on the Platform (including but not limited to films, programs, watch parties, events, memberships, viewing rights, or other digital content or services). Any Popcorns that have been redeemed or for which any content or service has been activated shall be deemed “Used Popcorns,” regardless of whether you have actually watched or used such content or service, and shall not be considered Unused Popcorns under this clause.

You may apply for a refund only with respect to “Unused Popcorn” in your account, and such application must be submitted to the our customer support in writing via email within 7 days from the date of purchase of the relevant Popcorn. Applications submitted after this period may be rejected at the Platform’s discretion. After deducting reasonable and necessary costs (including without limitation payment processing fees, administrative costs, and other direct costs incurred in providing the Services), the Platform will, within 30 days, refund the equivalent amount of your Unused Popcorns in your account to your Ztor account.

In respect of Used Popcorns and activated digital content or services, including but not limited to redeemed films, playback that has commenced, viewing rights that have been activated, participation in events, or use of any other digital content not provided on a tangible medium, you shall not, except as otherwise required by applicable law or expressly provided in these Terms, request a refund of Popcorns or any equivalent monetary value.

Nothing in this clause shall affect any mandatory rights available to you under applicable law (including without limitation rights of cancellation, termination, or refund under the Consumer Protection Act and related regulations on standardized contracts). In the event that the competent authority promulgates standardized contract requirements for this type of service with refund provisions that differ from this clause, such provisions shall prevail.

When applying for a refund of Unused Popcorns, you shall cooperate with the Platform to complete identity verification, confirmation of account ownership, and provision of necessary transaction information. If the Platform reasonably suspects any abuse, fraud, money laundering, violation of these Terms, or other unlawful conduct, the Platform reserves the right to suspend or refuse the refund and to conduct investigations or make reports to relevant authorities in accordance with applicable law.

5.3. Gifting of Content

16. Tax Responsibility

You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for reporting, paying, and handling all tax obligations arising from your use of the Services, provision of content on the Platform, sales and transactions, support activities, royalty sharing, commissions, payments, or any other form of earnings (collectively, “Platform Income”). This includes, without limitation, income tax, business tax, value-added tax (VAT), goods and services tax (GST), sales tax, and any other taxes, duties, levies, fees, and surcharges of any nature, all of which shall be your responsibility to declare, pay, and deal with in accordance with applicable law.

You are responsible for determining your own tax status, residency, source of income, and applicable tax rates, and for complying with all tax registration (if applicable), issuance of invoices or receipts (if applicable), filing, and payment obligations under the laws of your jurisdiction or otherwise applicable to you. Ztor does not provide any guarantee or individualized tax advice regarding whether you are required to register for tax purposes, issue invoices, or file and pay taxes.

Except as expressly required by applicable law, Ztor has no obligation to withhold, deduct, remit, or report any taxes in respect of Platform Income, and shall have no liability for any penalties, interest, or other losses arising from your failure to comply with your tax obligations. If applicable law requires Ztor to withhold or report any taxes, Ztor may do so in accordance with such law and may deduct the relevant tax amounts from any payments due to you.

Nothing in this clause constitutes tax, accounting, or legal advice. If needed, you should consult qualified tax, accounting, or legal professionals regarding your specific situation.

  • You agree you will have no claim against us for any statement not explicitly set out in these Terms.
  • If any provision (or part of a provision) of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. If a court holds that we cannot enforce a portion as drafted, we may replace those terms with similar enforceable terms without changing the remaining provisions. No delay in enforcing any provision will be construed as a waiver of that right.
  • Any rights and obligations under these Terms that by their nature should survive—including liability obligations or indemnities—will remain in effect after termination or expiration.
  • A person who is not a party to these Terms has no right to enforce any terms under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Ordinance (Cap. 623).
