Terms of Use
These terms are an agreement between you and Sakdrion Technology Group ("we", "us"), which runs 90sTV at 90stv.io ("the site"). By using the site you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
In plain words. 90sTV is a free, fan-made way to flip through 1990s clips. Every video is hosted on YouTube and played by YouTube's own embedded player; we do not host, upload, copy or sell any video. We are not connected to YouTube or to any broadcaster, studio, label, artist or brand you see. If something here is yours and you want it gone, tell us and we will remove it.
1. What the site is
90sTV presents a virtual television set that plays publicly available videos from YouTube, arranged into channels by year and category. The site holds a list of links to those videos and nothing more. The videos stay on YouTube, are streamed to you by YouTube, and remain under the control of the people who uploaded them and of YouTube. A video can become unavailable at any time and we have no say in that.
2. YouTube's terms apply too
The site uses YouTube API Services (the YouTube embedded player). By using the site you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service, and Google handles information about your viewing under the Google Privacy Policy. Our own Privacy Policy explains the rest.
3. No affiliation, and whose property is whose
90sTV is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by YouTube, Google, or any television network, studio, record label, artist, advertiser or other rights holder whose work or name appears on the site.
All programmes, music, commercials, characters, names, logos and trademarks shown in the videos or mentioned in titles and descriptions belong to their respective owners. They are named only to identify the material. Nothing on the site gives you any right to them.
The 90sTV name, the design of the site and its software belong to us. You may link to the site and share it. You may not copy the site or pass it off as your own.
4. Copyright complaints and removal requests
We respect the rights of creators and rights holders, and we remove links on request.
If you own the rights in a video, or act for the owner, and you want it off the site, write to contact@sakdrion.com or use the contact form (topic "Copyright or removal request"). To let us act quickly, please include:
- the work you say is infringed (for example the programme, song or advertisement);
- the video in question: its title as shown on the site, or its YouTube address;
- your name and a way to reach you (email is enough);
- a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent or the law;
- a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the owner or are authorised to act for the owner; and
- your physical or electronic signature (typing your full name is enough).
When we receive a notice with this information we remove the link from the site, normally within a few working days. Because the video itself is on YouTube, removing it from YouTube requires a separate request to YouTube through its copyright removal process.
If you appear in a clip, or have another good reason to want a clip removed (for example privacy, or material that should not be public), write to us the same way. You do not need to be the copyright owner and we will look at every request.
We may remove any clip at any time, with or without a request, and we stop linking to material from sources that are the subject of repeated valid complaints.
5. Using the site
You may use the site for your own personal, non-commercial viewing. You agree not to:
- use the site in any way that breaks the law or anyone's rights;
- download, record, copy or redistribute the videos, or get around any technical measure that protects them;
- interfere with the site or its servers, overload it, probe it for weaknesses, or access it with automated tools in a way that burdens it;
- show the site publicly for a fee or use it as part of a commercial service without our written permission;
- send us anything unlawful, abusive or misleading through the contact form.
You need an internet connection and a compatible browser. Your connection, your data charges and your device are your responsibility.
6. Content warnings
- Material of its time. The clips are television from the 1990s. Some contain language, attitudes, stereotypes or depictions that were broadcast then and that many people find outdated or offensive now. They are shown as they aired. Their inclusion is not an endorsement.
- Old advertising. Commercials are shown for nostalgia only. The products, prices, offers, phone numbers and claims in them are decades out of date. They are not offers by us or by anyone else, and nothing in them should be relied on.
- Not all of it suits children. The site carries general television, including news, drama, films, music videos and trailers. Parents and guardians should decide what is suitable. The site is not directed to children under 13.
- Flashing images. The site imitates an old television: static between channels, flicker, scan lines and rapid changes of picture, and many clips contain flashing lights. A small number of people can have seizures or other reactions to such images. If you have a photosensitive condition, or you feel unwell while watching, stop using the site and seek medical advice. You can switch off static between channels and picture noise in the settings menu.
- Accuracy. Titles, years and categories are our best effort and may be wrong. The blog is written for interest and entertainment, not as professional advice of any kind.
7. Outside services and links
The site depends on services we do not control, including YouTube, and links to other websites. We are not responsible for their content, availability, advertising or practices. Your dealings with them are between you and them.
8. Supporting the site
The site is free. If you choose to give money through Ko-fi, that is a voluntary gift to help with running costs. It buys no goods, services, extra features or rights, it is not a charitable donation and it is not tax-deductible. Payments are handled by Ko-fi and its payment providers under their terms, and any refund request is handled through Ko-fi.
9. Things you send us
If you send us suggestions, corrections or ideas, you agree that we may use them freely, without payment or credit and without any obligation to use them. Please do not send anything confidential or anything you do not have the right to share.
10. No warranties
The site is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent the law allows, we give no warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement. We do not promise that the site will be available, uninterrupted, secure or free of errors, that any particular video will play, or that the content is accurate, complete or suitable for you.
11. Limit of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, Sakdrion Technology Group and the people who work on the site will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive loss, or for any loss of data, profits, goodwill or enjoyment, arising from your use of the site, from your inability to use it, or from any content shown through it. Because the site is free, our total liability for any claim relating to it is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us to use it (which is nothing) and USD 50.
Some countries do not allow certain warranties to be excluded or certain liabilities to be limited. Nothing in these terms removes rights you have as a consumer that cannot lawfully be removed, and nothing limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
12. Your responsibility to us
If you break these terms or the law while using the site and a claim is made against us as a result, you agree to cover the reasonable losses and costs we suffer because of it, to the extent the law allows.
13. Changes and ending
We may change, suspend or close the site, or any channel or clip, at any time without notice. We may update these terms; the date at the top shows when they last changed, and using the site after a change means you accept the new terms. We may block access by anyone who breaks them.
14. General
If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, the rest still applies. If we do not enforce a term on one occasion, we can still enforce it later. These terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about the site.
