  1. DIAMONDS 

Diamonds are a kind of rating points which show Hily and its Members your overall contribution to the application and to the community. They serve as some sort of a “prestige” level for our users. To the extent allowed by the Hily application, a user may get diamonds while going live, creating User Content, communicating with other Members, getting in-app achievements, etc. Hily may encourage users to communicate with other Members and share their emotions by rewarding their efforts. When a user reaches a certain level of diamonds, a user may claim for a reward. Please note that:

  • diamonds are not in-app, virtual or real objects of value, they have no value themselves;
  • a user may not interact with diamonds, they are just like a rating scale;
  • diamonds are not a remuneration themselves; they are a graphical representation of a user’s efforts in the application;
  • once a reward is claimed, a diamonds quantity decreases to avoid a fraud and doubled requests.
  1. REFFERAL PROGRAM

Hily encourages all existing Members to recommend Hily Services to their friends, family and colleagues to become the streamer in Hily application (the “Referral Program”). 

To become the Qualified Referral, the person referred shall:

  • sign up for Hily application using Member’s referral link or code to allow for proper tracking of referrals;
  • consent to and comply with the Agreement; 
  • stream at least 60 minutes in the Hily application.

The Member may be eligible to get bonus for each Qualified Referral under the Referral Program. The bonus applicable to your Qualified Referral will be displayed in the Streaming Center in the “My referrals” section of the Hily application.

By participating in the Referral Program, the Member represents and warrants that (a) the Member has a personal relationship with the person referred; (b) the Member will comply with all applicable rules and regulations in the Member’s participation in the Referral Program. 

The following is a non-exhaustive list of restrictive activities that will disqualify the Member from earning bonuses through the Referral Program: 

  • self-referral;

  • taking any action or making any content that is disparaging or defamatory to Hily. 

Hily reserves the right to review all referrals, Qualified Referrals and to deny, withhold or cancel any bonuses under the Referral Program that Hily deems, in its sole discretion, as fraudulent, unethical, suspicious or otherwise inconsistent with Referral Program, Hily Terms of Use, the Agreement or any other applicable rules or regulation.

  1. REWARD 

Hily reserves the right (but has no obligation) to reward your efforts in using the application.
