Terms of Service
Last updated: November 2026
These terms are a binding agreement between you and Nile Spectra Private Limited ("we", "us", "our"), the operator of Podkast.in. By registering, logging in or using the platform you confirm that you have read and accept them. If you do not agree, please do not use the platform.
1. The service
Podkast.in helps podcasters and creators discover topics and collaborators, request and book recording sessions, and plan episodes. Sessions are recorded in a third-party, browser-based studio that hosts and guests join through a link. We provide tools and introductions only.
2. Eligibility and accounts
- You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding contract.
- Give accurate details and keep them up to date. One account per person; do not share your login.
- You are responsible for all activity under your account and for keeping your password safe. Tell us at once if you suspect misuse.
- We may review and approve new accounts, and may decline or remove an account where we reasonably believe these terms are being broken.
3. Plans and payment
- Some features are free to explore. Pro and Max are paid plans, sold as one-time purchases in Indian rupees and valid for 6 months from the date of activation (or the period shown on the Pricing page at the time you buy). Plans do not renew automatically.
- The price shown at checkout is the final price you pay. We are not currently charging GST. If taxes become applicable in future, they will be shown clearly before you pay.
- Payments are processed by our payment partners (for example Razorpay) or through a payment link we provide. We do not see or store your full card, UPI or bank details.
- Your plan is activated automatically after a successful payment, or, for payment links, manually by us, usually within 24 hours. See our Delivery and Refund policies.
- We may change prices, plan contents or offers for future purchases. A change does not affect a plan you have already bought.
4. Acceptable use
- No harassment, hate speech, spam, scams, adult or illegal content, or anything that infringes someone else's rights.
- No impersonation, and no claiming a profile, handle or identity that is not yours.
- No scraping, copying or misuse of other members' details, and no using member details for unsolicited bulk marketing.
- No attempts to break, overload, test or bypass the platform, its limits or its security.
5. Your content and recordings
You keep ownership of the content you post and of the recordings you create. You give us a limited, non-exclusive licence to store and display your profile and content as needed to run the service. You confirm you have the right to share what you post. Members who record together should agree between themselves how the recording will be used and published.
6. Listed creator profiles
To help members find people to collaborate with, we may list publicly available business or creator information (such as a name, public social handle and niche) for creators who have not yet joined. A listing does not mean the creator is affiliated with or endorses Podkast.in. The owner of a listing can claim it after registering, or ask us to remove it at any time from the listing page or by emailing us, and we will act on removal requests promptly. A session request for a listed creator is a request only: we will invite the creator to join, and we do not guarantee that they will accept.
7. Sessions between members
Sessions are arranged between members. We are not a party to the agreements between hosts and guests, and we do not guarantee that a session will take place, that a guest or host will attend, or that any content will be published. Please check anyone you collaborate with before sharing sensitive information.
8. Third-party services
The platform works with third-party services such as payment gateways, recording studios, email, analytics and hosting providers. Their own terms and privacy policies apply to your use of them.
9. Suspension and ending
You may stop using the service at any time. We may suspend or end access if you break these terms, misuse the platform or put others at risk. Unless the law requires otherwise, refunds are governed by our Refund policy.
10. Disclaimer and liability
We work to keep the platform available, but it is provided "as is" and "as available", and we do not promise that it will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that you will find a collaborator or reach any business result. To the extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 6 months before the claim, and we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. If you keep using the platform after an update, you accept it. For material changes we will try to notify you on the platform or by email.
12. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Please contact us first so we can try to resolve any issue informally. Any dispute that cannot be resolved will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Hyderabad, Telangana.
