Zieby

Terms

The deal, in plain words

These are the terms for using Zieby, whether you create an event or shoot at one. They are short on purpose.

LAST UPDATED 4 SEPTEMBER 2026

Who you are dealing with

Zieby is a product of United Sum B.V., registered in the Netherlands (Chamber of Commerce 98236733). Dutch law applies, and Dutch courts have jurisdiction, without taking away any protection you have as a consumer where you live.

What Zieby is

Zieby gives every guest at an event a disposable camera on their own phone. The host creates the event and gets a code. Guests scan it and shoot a fixed number of photos. The photos stay closed until the host reveals them, and then everyone at the event can see them.

Hosts

• You are responsible for your event: for who you hand the code to, and for telling your guests that photos taken with Zieby are shared with everyone at the event once revealed.
• You decide when, and whether, to reveal. A reveal can be taken back within fifteen minutes.
• You can hide or delete any photo, remove any guest, and download the whole album at any time.
• Your event is yours. We do not use your photos for anything but showing them to you and your guests.

Guests

• By shooting at an event you agree that the photos you take belong to the album, and can be seen by the host and, after the reveal, by the other guests and anyone the host shares the link with.
• You keep the copyright in your photos. You give the host and the other guests the right to look at them, download them and keep them, as you would at any party.
• If you find a photo of yourself you would rather not have there, use "this is me" on the photo. The host is told, and if they do nothing for seven days the photo is hidden.

What you may not do

• Upload anything illegal, or anything that shows a person in a way they have not agreed to and would object to.
• Photograph people who have made clear they do not want to be photographed.
• Try to open an album you were not invited to, guess codes, or interfere with the service.

We can hide photos, remove guests or close events that break these rules, and we will if asked to by someone with a good reason.

How long things are kept

Memories are kept for three months, counted from the event date or from the reveal if that comes later. Before anything is removed the album is marked and given thirty more days. After that the photos are gone, and we cannot bring them back. Download what you want to keep.

Price

While we are starting out, Zieby is free, with no guest limit. If that changes, it will say so on the website before you create an event, never afterwards for an event you already made.

What we promise, and what we do not

We work hard to keep the service up and the photos safe, and we say plainly how long we keep them. We cannot promise a phone will have signal in a marquee, that every photo a guest takes will arrive, or that the service will never be interrupted. Zieby is provided as it is, and our liability is limited to what the law does not allow us to exclude. For a paid service, it is in any case limited to what you paid.

Privacy

What we store and for how long is on the privacy page. It is part of these terms.

Changes

If these terms change in a way that matters, the date at the top changes with it, and an event you already created keeps the terms it was created under.
