Terms of Use
Last updated: 12 August 2026
Who these terms are with
Accepting these terms
Using ScreenMetric means you accept these terms, and so does publishing a review. If you do not accept them, please do not use the app.
Who can use ScreenMetric
You need to be at least 16 years old. ScreenMetric is not made for children, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16. The Privacy Policy explains what we do collect.
You need an account to rate films and to publish reviews. Keep your password to yourself, because anything done from your account is treated as done by you. If you think somebody else has got into it, write to support [at] screenmetric.app and we will help you sort it out.
Your ratings and your reviews are different things
- Ratings are private. Your category scores feed the community averages as anonymous numbers, and the comment you can attach to a rating is yours alone to read.
- Reviews are public. A review you publish appears to anyone looking at that film, next to your username, and other people can like it. A review can run to 10,000 characters.
You can edit or delete a review whenever you want. Deleting your rating for a film deletes the review along with it.
What you may not post
Write what you actually think about a film. Do not post:
- Hate speech or slurs, or anything that attacks people over race, religion, ethnicity, nationality, disability, sex, gender identity or sexual orientation.
- Harassment, bullying or threats, whether aimed at another reviewer, at people who made the film, or at anyone else.
- Sexual content. Discussing a film's sexual content is fine. Writing pornography is not. Anything sexualising a child is an immediate ban and, where the law requires it, a report to the authorities.
- Private information about other people, such as an address, a phone number or anything else that identifies somebody who has not chosen to be identified.
- Spam and advertising, including affiliate links, promotional text, and the same review posted across many films.
- Impersonation of another person, of a filmmaker, or of us.
- Illegal content, or anything encouraging serious harm or violence.
- Malicious links, or anything meant to break the app or reach data that is not yours.
Swearing is allowed. A word like damn or hell in a review about a film that earned it will publish, and we would rather you wrote the way you talk. What gets removed is language aimed at a person rather than at a film.
How we moderate
Reviews go through an automatic language check before they publish, and published reviews are checked again afterwards. Neither check catches everything, so reports from readers matter.
Every review carries a Report action. Pick a reason, add a note if it helps, and we look at it. You can also block a reviewer, which hides their reviews from you without telling them anything.
What happens if you break the rules
Depending on what happened, we may remove a review, stop an account from publishing, or close it. Some things go further than a closed account: content that sexualises a child, or a credible threat to someone's safety, gets reported to the authorities.
We will normally tell you what we removed and why. Where the law stops us from saying, or where telling you would get in the way of an investigation, we will not.
Your writing stays yours
You keep ownership of everything you write. Publishing a review gives us permission to show it in the app, to include it in the share cards the app generates, and to keep the copies needed to run the service. That permission ends when you delete the review, apart from backups that expire on their own schedule.
ScreenMetric Pro
Pro is a one-time purchase, sold through the App Store or Google Play. They take the payment and we never see your card details. What Pro unlocks is listed on the Pro screen in the app.
Refunds are Apple's or Google's to give, under their own terms. We cannot issue one ourselves. If the price changes, the change applies to new purchases and never to one already made.
Film information comes from TMDB
Titles, posters, cast and synopses come from TMDB. This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB. We do not control that data, so we cannot promise it is accurate or complete.
The app is provided as it is
We work to keep ScreenMetric running and to fix what breaks, but we cannot promise it will always be available, or that it will never lose data or make a mistake. Features change over time, and some may go away.
To the extent the law allows, dbConsult AS is not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of the app. Nothing here takes away rights you have as a consumer under Norwegian law, and if any part of these terms conflicts with those rights, your rights win.
Ending your access
You can delete your account under Settings. Deletion is described in the Privacy Policy.
We can suspend or close an account that breaks these terms. If we do, reviews published from it may be removed as well.
Governing law
Norwegian law applies, and disputes belong to the Norwegian courts. If consumer law where you live gives you the right to bring a case closer to home, that right stands.
Changes to these terms
If these terms change in a way that matters, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top. Carrying on with the app after a change means you accept it.
