Every "I agree" hands over rights you never read. Here's the plain-English, section-by-section version for the apps Indians use most — the content licences, data-sharing and AI-training rights you grant, and how to take them back.
Almost every "I agree" trades away some mix of these. Learn the six once, and you can skim any terms-of-service in minutes — each app card below tags which ones it takes.
You keep "ownership", but grant a worldwide, royalty-free, often sub-licensable licence to host, copy, modify and distribute whatever you upload — and copies can survive after you delete.
On cards: Content licenceAccount details, contacts, usage and location flow to affiliates, "partners" and advertisers. Profiles get combined across apps — what you do in one place prices the ads you see in another.
On cards: Data sharing · Tracking & adsPublic posts, reviews and images are increasingly fair game for training the company's AI models. Real opt-outs are rare — usually the only "no" is not posting.
On cards: Content & AITerms update whenever the company likes; keeping the app open counts as saying yes. The agreement you actually read is rarely the one you're on a year later.
On cards: ChangesAccounts can be suspended "at their discretion", sometimes taking your content and balances with them. Disputes are often routed to arbitration or foreign courts, with class actions waived.
On cards: TerminationRetention windows, backups and copies already shared with partners can outlive your account. Deleting the app from your phone deletes nothing at all.
Check each card's "How to leave"Whatever you clicked "agree" on, India's DPDP Act 2023 gives you rights that terms of service cannot sign away — and fines of up to ₹250 crore back them up.
What each service's public terms generally allow, section by section — with the official terms and the exit door linked on every card.
