Legal

Terms of service

The deal between you and us. Short, specific, and written so a fourteen-year-old can actually follow it.

Last updated 9 September 2026. These terms are an agreement between you and Dobeu Tech Solutions LLC, a limited liability company registered in New Jersey, USA (“we”, “us”). Using the site means you accept them. Reach us at info@dobeu.net for legal notices, or support@dobeu.net for everything else. We do not publish a street address; our registered address is available on request for a formal legal notice.

1. Who can use this site

Anyone can read the free chapters. Accounts are for readers aged 13 and over. Buying and selling is for 18 and over. Full detail on the age rules page. One account per person, and don't share your password.

2. The community rules

The feed, replies, profiles, messages and marketplace are shared space with teenagers in it. Don't post, send or list:

bullying, harassment, pile-ons or threats;
hate directed at anyone for who they are;
sexual content, sexualised images of anyone, or sexual approaches to another reader — this one gets an immediate ban and, where a child is involved, a report to the authorities;
violence, self-harm or suicide content presented as encouragement;
anyone's private details — address, school, phone number, workplace;
scams, fake listings, chain messages, spam, or links to malware;
artwork or writing that isn't yours to post.

Never arrange to meet someone from this site alone, and never send money to someone you can't verify. If you're under 18, tell an adult you trust before arranging anything offline.

3. Reporting and moderation

Every post, reply, private message and listing has a Report button. Reports go to a human moderator, who can hide or delete the content and suspend the account behind it. We aim to look at every report within 24 hours, and at anything flagged as danger or sexual content first. The person reported isn't told who reported them. If you think we got a decision wrong, email support@dobeu.net and a different person will look again.

4. Your content stays yours

You keep ownership of everything you post. You give us permission to display it on the site while it's up, and to remove it if it breaks these rules. Delete a post, or your account, and that permission ends.

5. Our content stays ours

The story, characters, artwork and designs belong to Dobeu Tech Solutions LLC. Read them, quote a little, make fan art and share it here — but don't republish chapters, sell our artwork, or train models on them.

6. The reader marketplace

Listings are made by readers, not by us. No money changes hands on this site: buyer and seller arrange payment and delivery between themselves, and we are not a party to that deal, don't hold funds, don't verify sellers or items, and can't refund you. Sellers are responsible for describing things honestly and for their own tax and legal obligations. Report a listing that looks like a scam and we'll take it down.

7. The shop and memberships

Nothing in the Chima shop is on sale yet and no prices are final. When it opens, order terms, shipping times and refund rights will be stated at checkout before you pay.

8. Ending things

You can delete your account at any time in settings. We can suspend or close an account that breaks these rules, and we'll tell you why unless doing so would put someone at risk.

9. The boring but necessary part

The site is provided as-is. We keep it running as best we can but can't promise it will never break or lose data — keep your own copy of anything you'd hate to lose. Nothing here limits rights you have by law as a consumer.

10. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that can't be settled by email goes to the state and federal courts of New Jersey, and you and we both agree to that. If you're a consumer somewhere else, this doesn't take away rights your local law gives you. Please email us first — most things get sorted that way.
