Summary: Fanturf is a community app for supporters to photograph and map fan culture — stickers, tifos, graffiti, and similar expressions. You must be 13 or older to use it. You own the photos you upload, but you give us permission to display them. Respect other supporters, only post real artefacts you found in public, and don't post anything offensive or illegal.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By downloading, installing, or using the Fanturf mobile application ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and IKONO AS (org. nr. 920320449) ("IKONO", "we", "us", "our"), the operator of Fanturf, a Norwegian limited company.
2. Eligibility
- To create an account and use Fanturf you must be at least:
- 16 years old if you are resident in the European Economic Area (including Norway), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, unless the law of your country of residence sets a lower digital-consent age (between 13 and 16), in which case that lower age applies to you provided a holder of parental responsibility has authorised your use of Fanturf and the processing of your personal data; or
- 13 years old if you are resident outside the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland.
- If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction (typically 18), you confirm that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf.
- By creating an account, you represent that you meet these age requirements.
- Users who we reasonably believe to be below the applicable minimum age will have their accounts terminated and data deleted.
3. Your Account
3.1 Registration
You may register using an email address, Sign in with Apple, or Sign in with Google. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at hello@fanturf.app if you suspect unauthorised access.
3.2 Account accuracy
You agree to provide accurate information when creating your account and to keep it up to date. You may not impersonate another person or use a username that is offensive, misleading, or violates the rights of others.
3.3 One account per person
You may not create multiple accounts to evade a ban or suspension. We reserve the right to terminate duplicate accounts.
3.4 Account deletion
You may delete your account at any time via Profile → Account → Delete Account. Account deletion is permanent and will remove all your posts, photos, and profile data within 30 days.
4. Content You Post
4.1 What you may post
Fanturf is for photographs of real, physical fan-culture artefacts — stickers, tifos, graffiti, and similar supporter expressions — found in public spaces. You may post:
- Photos of fan-culture artefacts you have personally found and photographed in a public place.
- Accurate location and metadata about where and what the artefact depicts.
- A short personal story or context about the artefact.
4.2 Ownership and licence
You retain ownership of the photos and content you post ("Your Content"). By posting, you grant Fanturf a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, display, reproduce, and distribute Your Content within the App and in promotional materials relating to Fanturf, for as long as your content is live on the platform. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account.
4.3 Your Representations and Warranties
By posting Your Content, you represent and warrant to IKONO that each of the following statements is true at the time of upload:
- Authorship. You personally took the photograph, or you hold an unlimited, written licence from the photographer sufficient to grant the rights in Section 4.2.
- Subject matter. The photograph depicts a real, physical fan-culture artefact — a sticker, tifo, piece of graffiti, or similar supporter expression — found in a public space. It has not been digitally fabricated or materially altered to misrepresent the subject, its location, or its author.
- No third-party rights. Your Content does not infringe any copyright, trademark, moral right, privacy right, personality right, trade-secret right, or any other right of any third party. You acknowledge that fan-culture artefacts — including club crests and logos, stickers, tifos, graffiti, and other works created by supporters or artists — may involve third-party rights, and you assume all legal risk for such depictions.
- No identifiable persons without consent. If any identifiable person appears in Your Content, you have their valid consent to publish the image, or the person is captured only incidentally in a public place in a manner that does not violate their rights under the Norwegian Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven), the GDPR, or the right to one's own image (retten til eget bilde, åndsverkloven § 104).
- Lawfulness. Your Content does not violate any applicable law in Norway, in your own jurisdiction, or in any jurisdiction where the App is available, including but not limited to laws on hate speech, defamation, obscenity, child protection, data protection, or the incitement of violence or terrorism.
- Accuracy. The location, club, supporter group, and other metadata you attach are accurate to the best of your knowledge.
These representations and warranties survive deletion of Your Content and termination of your account. A breach of any of them is a material breach of these Terms.
5. Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to:
5.1 Illegal or harmful content
- Post content that is illegal, defamatory, threatening, or that promotes violence or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or disability.
- Post content that sexualises minors in any way. Depictions of child sexual abuse material will be reported to Kripos immediately and your account terminated (see Section 6.4).
- Post pornography or sexually explicit photographic or video content — defined as explicit depictions of real sexual activity or sexual organs intended primarily to stimulate an erotic response. Fanturf is a fan-culture documentation platform, not an adult-content service; this prohibition aligns with Apple App Store Review Guideline 1.1.4.
- Post intimate or sexual images of an identifiable person without that person's valid and informed consent. This includes so-called "revenge porn" and other non-consensual intimate imagery, which is a criminal offence under Norwegian straffeloven § 267a.
- Post content that constitutes hate speech.
Important distinction: stylised or cartoon depictions of nudity, sexuality, or rude gestures that appear on real physical stickers, tifos, or graffiti in public spaces — a long-standing tradition in supporter culture — are not prohibited by this section. The rules above target pornographic photography, non-consensual imagery, and sexual content whose primary purpose is erotic rather than fan expression. Borderline cases are judged by IKONO in its reasonable discretion and the user has an appeal right under Section 6.2.
5.2 Fake or misleading content
- Post photos that are not of real physical fan-culture artefacts (e.g. digital art, screenshots, AI-generated images).
- Deliberately mislabel the location, club, or type of an artefact.
- Create duplicate entries of the same artefact to inflate counts or rankings.
5.3 Platform abuse
- Use automated tools, bots, or scripts to interact with the App.
- Attempt to access, scrape, or reverse-engineer the App's API or data beyond your own account.
- Harass, stalk, or intimidate other users.
- Abuse the reporting or flagging system to target content or users unfairly.
- Attempt to circumvent blocks, bans, or account suspensions by creating new accounts.
5.4 Security
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the App, its servers, or other users' accounts.
- Introduce viruses, malware, or any other harmful code.
- Interfere with the availability or integrity of the App.
6. User-Generated Content — Your Liability and Our Hosting Role
6.1 IKONO's role as a hosting provider
Fanturf is a hosting service (vertskjenesteyter) within the meaning of Norway's Lov om elektronisk handel (ehandelsloven) §§ 16–18, and an online intermediary platform within the meaning of the EU Digital Services Act (Regulation (EU) 2022/2065).
- All user-submitted photographs, text, location tags, and metadata are provided by individual users acting independently of IKONO. IKONO does not create, verify, or pre-screen Your Content and has no editorial control over it.
- Publication of Your Content on the map or in any list does not constitute endorsement, verification, or adoption of its subject by IKONO.
- IKONO becomes liable for unlawful user content only from the moment we obtain actual knowledge of its unlawfulness and fail to act expeditiously upon that knowledge.
6.2 Notice-and-action procedure
Any person who considers content on Fanturf to be unlawful or to infringe their rights may notify us by either:
- Using the in-app Report function on the sticker or profile in question; or
- Sending an email to hello@fanturf.app identifying the content (sticker ID, URL, or a description sufficient to locate it), the legal basis for the claim, and the sender's name and contact details.
Notices that appear prima facie valid will be acted upon without undue delay. If content is removed following a notice, the uploader will be informed of the removal and the substance of the notice, and may submit a counter-notice to the same email address within a reasonable period.
6.3 Intellectual-property infringement — user sole liability
If Your Content infringes any third-party intellectual-property right — including club crests, trademarks, logos, sticker-artist copyrights, tifo-designer rights, graffiti-artist rights, photographer rights, or any right in the underlying artefact — all civil liability rests exclusively with you as the uploader.
- Clubs own their crests, logos, and other marks. By tagging a post with a club name, you describe what the artefact depicts; IKONO grants no right to reproduce or distribute club marks.
- Photographs of stickers, tifos, graffiti, and similar works may also engage the copyright of the underlying artist. It is your responsibility as uploader to consider whether your upload falls within an applicable exception (for example, the quotation or incidental-use exceptions under Norway's åndsverkloven) or requires the author's permission.
- IKONO will remove content on valid IP complaint and reserves the right to terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.
6.4 Illegal content — user sole liability
If Your Content is unlawful under any applicable law, you are solely liable — both civilly and, where applicable, criminally — for that content. IKONO is a mere host and is not a party to the subject matter of Your Content.
Without limitation, this includes content that:
- Constitutes hate speech under Norwegian straffeloven § 185, threats under § 263 or § 266, or incitement to violence, genocide, or terrorism;
- Constitutes defamation or false attribution (ærekrenkelser);
- Depicts or relates to child sexual abuse material within the meaning of straffeloven § 311 — such content will be reported to Kripos without prior notice to the uploader, and relevant data will be preserved for law-enforcement use;
- Constitutes pornography or sexually explicit photographic / video content (see Section 5.1), or constitutes non-consensual intimate imagery within the meaning of straffeloven § 267a — such content will be removed on notice and, where § 267a applies, reported to the police;
- Infringes the image rights of an identifiable person (retten til eget bilde, åndsverkloven § 104), or violates that person's privacy or data-protection rights;
- Is harassing, stalking, discriminatory, or otherwise unlawful in Norway or in the uploader's jurisdiction.
IKONO will cooperate with Norwegian and foreign law-enforcement authorities and will preserve and disclose account data, content, and access logs as required by valid legal process.
6.5 Survival
Your liability under this Section 6 survives deletion of Your Content, deletion of your account, and termination of these Terms.
7. Content Moderation
7.1 Reporting
Any user may report content they believe violates these Terms using the in-app "Report" function on any post. We review reports and take appropriate action, which may include removing content or suspending accounts.
7.2 Automatic hiding
Stickers that receive a threshold number of reports may be automatically hidden pending review. This does not constitute a permanent decision.
7.3 Our rights
We reserve the right to remove any content, at our sole discretion, that we believe violates these Terms, applicable law, or the spirit of the Fanturf community — even if not explicitly covered by these Terms.
7.4 Appeals
If you believe content of yours was removed in error, contact us at hello@fanturf.app with the details. We will review and respond within a reasonable time.
8. Account Suspension and Termination
- We may suspend or permanently terminate your account if you violate these Terms, without prior notice for serious violations.
- For lesser violations, we will attempt to warn you before taking action.
- Upon termination, your content will be removed and you will lose access to all data associated with your account.
- If you believe your account was suspended or terminated in error, contact hello@fanturf.app.
9. Third-Party Services
The App uses third-party services including Supabase (database and authentication), Mapbox (mapping), Apple, and Google. Your use of these services is also subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices of these third parties.
10. Fanturf's Intellectual Property
The Fanturf name, logo, app design, and all software underlying the App are owned by IKONO and are protected by intellectual property law. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works from the App or its content without our express written permission.
11. Disclaimer of Warranties
Fanturf is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be error-free, uninterrupted, or free of viruses.
We do not verify the accuracy of locations, club tags, or any other user-generated metadata. Content is provided by community members and may be incorrect.
12. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, IKONO, its directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents shall not be liable for:
- Any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
- Loss of data, revenue, profits, goodwill, or reputation.
- Any damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the App.
- Any damages arising from content posted, shared, or transmitted by any user, including Your Content and the content of other users. You acknowledge that IKONO acts solely as a host (see Section 6.1) and does not originate, verify, or endorse user content.
Where liability cannot be fully excluded by mandatory applicable law (including mandatory Norwegian consumer-protection law), IKONO's total aggregate liability to you for any and all claims arising from or related to these Terms or the App shall not exceed the amount you have paid to IKONO in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim (which, for a free App, is zero Norwegian kroner).
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under mandatory applicable law, including liability for gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or personal injury caused by negligence.
13. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless IKONO, its directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents (the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, investigations, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, settlements, fines, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and court costs) arising from or related to:
- Your Content, including any claim of intellectual-property infringement, defamation, invasion of privacy, violation of publicity or personality rights, or violation of data-protection law;
- any civil, administrative, or criminal investigation or proceeding concerning Your Content or your use of the App;
- any breach of the representations and warranties you made in Section 4.3;
- your use of, or inability to use, the App;
- your violation of these Terms;
- your violation of any applicable law; or
- your violation of any right of any third party.
IKONO reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate in such defence. You may not settle any matter for which you owe indemnification without IKONO's prior written consent. Your obligations under this Section 13 survive termination of these Terms and deletion of your account.
14. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by updating the "Last updated" date and, where appropriate, by an in-app notification or email. If you continue to use Fanturf after changes take effect, you agree to the updated Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the App and delete your account.
15. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Norway, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the App shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Norwegian courts, with Oslo District Court (Oslo tingrett) as the agreed venue.
If you are a consumer in the European Union, you may also contact the EU's Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
16. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
