Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Sillage (sillage.tv), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, you may not access or use our services. Please also review our Privacy Policy to understand our data practices.

2. Description of Service

Sillage is a schedule aggregator that compiles movie showtimes and screening details from independent, repertory, and art house cinemas. We provide lists and schedules to help you plan cinema visits, but we do not host screenings, operate theatres, or sell tickets ourselves.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age to access or use Sillage. To register an account on the website, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction). By registering an account, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

4. Accuracy of Listings

While we strive to keep all aggregated listings accurate, showtimes, venues, prices, and film titles are determined solely by the respective cinemas and are subject to change or cancellation without notice. Sillage is not responsible for cancellations, sold-out screenings, scheduling errors, or ticketing issues. We recommend verifying details on the official cinema website before making plans or travelling.

5. No Ticket Confirmation

Showtimes displayed on Sillage are for informational and planning purposes only. Displaying a showtime or adding it to your schedule does not constitute a ticket purchase, reservation, or seat confirmation. Tickets must be purchased directly from the operating cinema or authorized ticketing platforms.

6. Cinema Non-Affiliation

Sillage is an independent directory and aggregator. We are not directly affiliated, associated, authorized, endorsed by, or in any way officially connected with any of the cinemas, theatres, or exhibitors listed on this site. All cinema names, logos, and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

7. Intellectual Property

All film titles, posters, trailers, and description metadata remain the property of their respective creators, studios, and copyright holders. Sillage indexes this content under fair use and fair dealing exemptions for informational, search, and promotional indexing purposes. Sillage's design, code, logo, and original assets remain the property of Sillage.

8. Letterboxd Integration

Sillage allows you to link your public Letterboxd username to filter showtimes based on your watchlist. Letterboxd is owned and operated by Letterboxd Limited. Sillage is completely independent and not affiliated with, endorsed by, or representative of Letterboxd. Your use of Letterboxd is governed by their terms and privacy policies.

9. Prohibited Conduct

When using Sillage, you agree not to:

• Employ automated scraping tools, robots, or scripts to copy our database or content without written permission
• Attempt to bypass, disable, or interfere with any security measures or API rate-limiters
• Circumvent account registration/verification systems
• Misrepresent your identity or use others' email addresses or Letterboxd usernames without permission
• Use Sillage for any unlawful purpose or to coordinate malicious activity

10. User Accounts & Security

You are responsible for keeping your Sillage password secure. You are fully responsible for all activities occurring under your account. If you believe your account security has been compromised, please change your password immediately in your Settings page.

11. Termination

We reserve the right, without notice and at our sole discretion, to suspend or terminate your account or block your access to Sillage if we believe you have violated these Terms of Service or engaged in abusive behaviour. You may also terminate your account at any time by deleting it from your Settings page.

12. Limitation of Liability

Sillage is provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis without warranties of any kind. Sillage and its contributors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages resulting from your use of or inability to use the service, or your reliance on showtime listings, cinema venues, film details, or third-party content.

13. Governing Law

These Terms of Service and any disputes arising out of or related to your use of Sillage shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

14. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms of Service at any time. When we make updates, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of Sillage after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the modified terms.
