1. Agreement
By using Filmistani (www.filmistani.com), you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the service.
2. What Filmistani is
Filmistani is a free discovery & recommendation platform for movies and web series. We aggregate metadata, surface curated rails, and offer an AI assistant called Filmi to help you decide what to watch.
We do not host or stream any video content. Every "Watch on Netflix / Prime / Hotstar / YouTube" link is a deep-link to the respective official platform. You'll need a separate subscription on those platforms to actually watch.
3. Acceptable use
You agree NOT to:
- Scrape, mirror, or republish our content or data
- Abuse the AI Concierge with automated/spammy queries
- Reverse-engineer or attempt to break our APIs
- Use the service to harass other users or third parties
- Bypass quota, rate-limiting, or family-safe filtering
- Upload, transmit, or link to unlawful, harmful, or infringing material
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules — at our discretion, without prior notice.
4. Accounts & authentication
Filmistani uses Google OAuth 2.0 for sign-in. You're responsible for keeping your Google account secure. We're not liable for unauthorized access caused by compromised Google credentials.
5. Content & intellectual property
Movie & series metadata, posters, and backdrops are provided by TMDB under their terms. Filmistani is not endorsed or certified by TMDB.
YouTube channel data, thumbnails, and video metadata are surfaced via the official YouTube Data API and remain the property of their respective creators / YouTube. By using the YouTube portions of Filmistani, you also agree to the YouTube Terms of Service.
Our own brand, design, code, curated lists, and editorial picks are copyright © Filmistani. Don't copy them without permission.
6. AI Concierge disclaimer
Filmi, our AI Concierge, is powered by Google Gemini. Its responses are generated and may contain factual errors or out-of-date info. Don't treat AI recommendations as professional advice. Verify critical details (release dates, ratings, age-appropriateness) independently.
7. No warranty
Filmistani is provided "AS IS" without warranties of any kind. We don't guarantee accuracy of IMDb ratings, streaming-availability info, release dates, or recommendation quality. Third-party platforms (Netflix, Prime, etc.) may change their catalogs or pricing at any time.
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, Filmistani is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service. Our total liability is capped at INR 1,000 or the amount you donated to us in the last 12 months, whichever is higher.
9. Donations & refunds
Support / donations are processed via Razorpay and are voluntary, non-refundable contributions. You receive no service in exchange for a donation — Filmistani's full feature set is free for all users.
10. Copyright takedown (DMCA-style)
If you believe content on Filmistani infringes your copyright, email goksabhi@gmail.com with:
- A description of the copyrighted work
- The exact URL on filmistani.com where it appears
- Your contact info + a signed good-faith statement
We'll review within 7 business days. Since we don't host video content, most takedowns should be directed to TMDB or the streaming platform itself.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms occasionally. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the latest version. Continued use after changes means you accept the new terms.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh.
