Effective: 29. August 2026 Last updated: 15. September 2026
This policy isn't available in your language yet. The authoritative English version is shown below.

We respect intellectual property rights and expect our users to do the same. This policy explains how we treat copyrighted material and how rights holders can ask us to remove content they believe infringes their rights.

1. Our content In short The FOMA app, design, and text are ours and protected by copyright.

The FOMA application, its design, and its original text are owned by Otto & Best Limited and protected by copyright and other laws.

2. Third-party event data In short Titles, artwork, and event details come from third-party sources and belong to their owners. We show them to describe events.

FOMA displays event information (including titles, artwork, and descriptions) obtained from third-party catalogues and rights holders, used to identify and describe events for your information. That material remains the property of its owners and is used in accordance with the relevant source's terms.

3. Data sources and required credits In short Some of the catalogues we read from require a specific credit as a condition of use. They are given here.

Some of the catalogues behind the events in FOMA require, as a condition of use, that we credit them by name. Those credits are collected here. Where a credit belongs beside a particular piece of information, it is also shown with that information in the app.

TMDB

TV and film releases, including titles, artwork, descriptions, and watch availability, are sourced from TMDB.
