We reserve the right to remove content and restrict or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, including through automated moderation systems.

4. Content and Intellectual Property

4.1 Your Content

You retain ownership of all content you upload to the App (including images, descriptions, and brand materials).

By uploading content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, display, reproduce, and distribute your content within the App and on StoreFront’s official social media channels (e.g., Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, X) for the purpose of promoting the StoreFront platform. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except where your content has been shared with others and they have not deleted it.

4.2 Brand Item Listings

Brand accounts are solely responsible for:

  • The accuracy of item descriptions, prices, and availability
  • Ensuring item images are genuine and not misleading
  • Compliance with consumer protection laws in their jurisdiction
  • Ensuring items comply with applicable product safety standards
  • Proper use of tags and categorisation

4.3 Our Intellectual Property

The App, including its design, code, logos, and trademarks, is owned by Sprout Technology Pty Ltd. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse engineer any part of the App without our written permission.

5. Shopping and External Links

The App allows users to click through to external websites to purchase items (“Shop” links). When you click a Shop link:

  • You are redirected to the brand’s own website or third-party marketplace
  • StoreFront does not process, facilitate, or guarantee any purchases
  • Your transaction is solely between you and the brand/seller
  • StoreFront is not a party to any sale and has no liability for products purchased, payment processing, delivery, returns, or refunds

We recommend reviewing the terms and privacy policies of any external site before making a purchase.

6. Content Moderation and Reporting

6.1 Reporting

You can report items that violate our guidelines. Report categories include:

  • Incorrect tags
  • Hate speech
  • Nudity or sexual content
  • Copyright infringement
  • Other violations

Reports are reviewed and actioned in accordance with our content moderation procedures.

6.2 Automated Moderation

We use automated systems for:

  • Rate limiting to prevent abuse
  • Bot detection based on interaction patterns
  • Content filtering based on user age

Users who repeatedly violate our rate limits or exhibit bot-like behaviour may have their accounts restricted. If you believe a restriction has been applied in error, contact us at hello@sprout.enterprises.

7. Privacy

Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. By using the App, you acknowledge that you have read and understood our Privacy Policy.

The App may send push notifications to your device to keep you informed about activity relevant to your account. Notification types include:

For User accounts: new items from brands you follow, trending alerts, and app updates.

For Brand accounts: performance alerts (engagement milestones, view spikes), follower milestones, new follower notifications, weekly performance summaries, and platform updates.

You can manage your notification preferences at any time through the notification settings within the App, or by disabling notifications for StoreFront through your device’s operating system settings. Your push notification token is automatically removed when you sign out of the App.

8. Disclaimers

8.1 No Warranty
