By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service.

Description of Service
Rounds Record Swap is a vinyl record exchange club platform that allows users to:
- Create or join vinyl record exchange clubs
- Participate in exchange "rounds" where members are paired to swap records
- Track their vinyl collection ("crate") of received albums
- Connect with other vinyl enthusiasts
The Service facilitates connections between members but does not participate in, guarantee, or take responsibility for the actual exchange of physical records between users.
Account Responsibilities
Account Creation
To use the Service, you must:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information
- Maintain and update your information to keep it accurate
- Keep your password secure and confidential
- Maintain only one account per person
Account Security
You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account. If you become aware of any unauthorized use of your account, you must notify us immediately.
Account Termination
You may delete your account at any time by contacting us. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account if you violate these Terms.
Club Membership
Creating and Managing Clubs
Users may create clubs and invite other members. Club owners are responsible for managing their clubs, including:
- Setting club rules and expectations
- Inviting and removing members
- Starting and closing exchange rounds
- Promoting members to admin roles
Club Requirements
Clubs must have between 2 and 24 members, and an even number of members is required to start an exchange round (so everyone can be paired).
Leaving Clubs
Members may leave clubs at any time when no exchange round is active. During an active round, members must complete their exchange obligations before leaving.
Exchange Obligations
Commitment to Exchange
When you participate in an exchange round and are paired with another member, you agree to:
- Ship a vinyl record to your exchange partner
- Ship within a reasonable timeframe (we recommend within 2 weeks)
- Ship records in playable condition unless otherwise agreed
- Provide accurate information about what you are sending
- Package records appropriately to prevent shipping damage
Good Faith Participation
Exchanges are based on the spirit of sharing music. While specific album values are not guaranteed to be equal, all members are expected to participate in good faith and send records they genuinely believe their partner will enjoy.
No Monetary Transactions
Rounds Record Swap is not a marketplace. Members should not request or exchange money for records through the Service. The only cost to participants should be the records they send and their shipping expenses.
Shipping Responsibility
You are responsible for the cost and logistics of shipping your record. Screendoor Studio Inc. is not responsible for lost, damaged, or delayed shipments. We recommend using tracked shipping and appropriate packaging.
Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to:
- Harass, abuse, or threaten other members
- Engage in fraudulent exchanges (intentionally sending damaged, incorrect, or worthless items)
- Fail to send a record after being paired in an exchange

- Post illegal, offensive, or harmful content
- Impersonate other users or entities
- Attempt to circumvent security measures
- Use the Service for any unlawful purpose
- Collect or harvest user information without consent
