Terms of service
To sign in or create an account, you must accept these Terms of Service. Please read our Privacy Notice, which explains what we collect and why. Newsletter emails are optional: agreeing to these terms does not subscribe you. You can unsubscribe from news emails without losing your account.
A beta
Tambay.live is being tested. Features may change, break or disappear, and test data may be reset (we will say so on the site first). It is provided as it is, without promises that it will always be available or free of errors.
Your account and seat
You can come in as a guest (no account, this browser only) or sign in with Google or an email and password; keep your password to yourself. You need an account to create a lantay, keep a scrapbook and invite people to chess. A seat belongs to the browser that took it. Keep your name, note and bio respectful: other people in the lantay can see them.
Be a good tambay
- No harassment, hate, threats, or sexual content involving minors.
- No spam, scams, or links meant to harm people or their devices.
- No impersonating others or sharing someone's private information.
- No attempts to break, overload or get around the site's limits and bans.
Anyone can report a message, a person, a Tambayan ni Pepe Wall entry or a lantay with the megaphone. A lantay's creator can remove messages and ban members from their lantay; the Tambay.live admin can remove any content or lantay and ban people from Tambay.live. Group chat messages are deleted after 90 days. Tagpuan chats last 24 hours; account friend messages stay until you delete your data. Room-private messages are saved in the participants’ browsers, with delivery copies and limited server records as described in the Privacy Notice.
Tagpuan
Tagpuan is for signed-in accounts. Random Tagpo is only for people aged 18 or older; by joining you confirm that you are. Be kind, don’t ask for or share contact details, money or explicit content, and respect a “Not this time”. Anyone may leave, report or block at any time. The admin may review Tagpuan chats for safety and may restrict accounts that break these rules.
Pepe and shared scenes
Pepe is an AI companion inspired by José Rizal, not the historical person. His replies can be mistaken. Guests receive two thinking questions and five personal YouTube requests per Philippine calendar day; account limits are shown in the app. Failed requests and duplicate retries do not consume an extra allowance. In Tambayan ni Pepe, Pepe appears automatically while people are present and sends personal welcome messages. Elsewhere, eligible accounts can call him. A notice explains when he can read the lantay’s group chat. Admins may publish scene layouts, decorations and schedules separately for each lantay.
Your content
What you post stays yours. You allow Tambay.live to store it and show it to the people it is meant for (for example, everyone in the lantay for a chat message or Tambayan ni Pepe Wall entry, or only you for your scrapbook) for as long as it is on the site. Sharing a scrapbook photo to a Tambayan ni Pepe Wall makes a copy visible to that lantay. Only post photos, voice clips and words you have the right to share and permission to publish.
Things that are not ours
Fonts, music, illustrations of people and map data come from their creators under their licences; see credits. Third-party radio and video players connect to external services. A station’s appearance in a directory does not establish a licence to its audio, and we do not claim that every listed station has authorized embedding. Respect broadcaster and platform terms; do not use Tambay.live to bypass restrictions or record, relay or redistribute content without the necessary rights.
Liability
To the extent the law allows, Tambay.live is not liable for indirect losses, lost data, or anything other people say or do in a lantay. Nothing here limits rights you have under Philippine consumer law.
Changes and ending
We may update these terms; the date above will change, and big changes will be shown on the site. You can stop using Tambay.live and delete your data at any time.
Law and contact
These terms follow the laws of the Republic of the Philippines. Contact: johncyongco@gmail.com.
