Intellectual Property, Trademark and Acceptable Use Policy

Effective date: 8 September 2026
Last updated: 8 September 2026
Version: 1.0

This Policy is incorporated into, and forms part of, the Terms of Service of the App published by Utsav Mangla, sole proprietor, Delhi, India ("we", "us", "our", "Provider"). Capitalised terms not defined here have the meaning given in the Terms of Service. Contact: support@umango.in.

1. Third-party nature, trademarks and disclaimer of affiliation

1.1 The App is an independent, unofficial client

The App is an independent, third-party, unofficial client application for Google's Blogger publishing platform. It operates as a client and facilitator only: it presents an alternative interface through which a user issues instructions to Google's official Blogger API v3, and through which publicly available Blogger/Blogspot content is retrieved, using the user's own Google Account and the user's own OAuth authorisation.

1.2 No affiliation, endorsement or sponsorship

The Provider is not affiliated with, associated with, authorised by, endorsed by, sponsored by, certified by, or in any way officially connected with Google LLC, Google Ireland Limited, Alphabet Inc., or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates, or with the Blogger or Blogspot services. No statement in the App, its store listings, its screenshots, its marketing materials or its documentation should be read as claiming any such relationship. The official Blogger website is https://www.blogger.com.

1.3 No claim to Google's marks

"Google", "Blogger", "Blogspot", "Blogger.com", "Gemini", "Firebase", "AdMob", "Android", "Google Play" and the associated names, logos, product names, trade dress and marks are the trademarks or registered trademarks of Google LLC. "Apple", "App Store", "iOS", "iPadOS", "macOS", "App Attest" and related marks are trademarks of Apple Inc. All other marks referenced belong to their respective owners.

The Provider claims no right, title, interest, ownership, licence or goodwill of any kind in or to any of those marks. Where such a mark appears in the App, in a store listing, in a store title, or in this or any other document, it is used solely nominatively and descriptively, to identify the third-party service with which the App is compatible and to describe what the App does. That use:

• is the minimum necessary to identify the service in question;
• does not use any Google logo, wordmark styling, colour scheme or trade dress in a way intended to suggest origin, sponsorship or endorsement;
• is accompanied by a disclaimer of affiliation in the App and in the store listing; and
• is intended to fall within nominative fair use and the corresponding doctrines under the Lanham Act (US), the Trade Marks Act, 1999 (India), Article 14 of the EU Trade Mark Regulation (2017/1001) and equivalent provisions elsewhere.

If Google or any other rights-holder considers that any use of its marks by the App exceeds what is permitted, we ask that it write to support@umango.in; we will engage promptly and in good faith and will make changes where the objection is well-founded.

1.4 Not a replacement for Blogger

The App is not a replacement for, substitute for, fork of, mirror of, competing implementation of, or successor to Blogger or Blogspot. It stores no blog of its own and hosts no blog of its own. All blogs, posts, pages, comments, images, domains, themes, statistics and accounts remain hosted, stored, owned and controlled by Google and remain governed by Google's own terms. Uninstalling the App has no effect on a user's blog. A user's relationship with Google is entirely separate from, and unaffected by, their relationship with the Provider.

1.5 Compliance with Google's API terms

The App uses the Blogger API in accordance with the Google APIs Terms of Service and the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements applicable to data obtained through Google APIs. Data obtained from Google APIs is used only to provide and improve user-facing features of the App, is not sold, is not used for advertising, and is not transferred except as necessary to provide the App, to comply with law, or as part of a merger or acquisition following notice.

2. The Provider's intellectual property

2.1 The App — including its source code, object code, architecture, backend services and APIs, user interface, visual design, layout, iconography, illustrations, animations, sound, copy and microcopy, localisations, database schema, search index structure, ranking and recommendation logic, moderation prompts and pipelines, and all documentation — is owned by the Provider or its licensors and is protected by copyright, database rights, trade secret and other intellectual property laws worldwide.

2.2 The App's own name, logo and brand assets are the Provider's trademarks (whether registered or unregistered). You may not use them without our prior written permission, except (a) to refer factually to the App in news reporting, review or commentary, and (b) as expressly permitted in Section 3.

2.3 Except for the limited licence granted in Section 5 of the Terms of Service, no right, title or interest in the App is transferred to you. All rights are reserved.

2.4 Feedback. If you send us any suggestion, idea, feature request, bug report, improvement, mock-up or other feedback relating to the App ("Feedback"), you irrevocably assign to the Provider all right, title and interest in and to that Feedback worldwide, including all intellectual property rights in it, and, to the extent such assignment is not effective in your jurisdiction, you grant the Provider a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable and sublicensable licence to use, reproduce, modify, distribute and exploit it for any purpose without restriction or compensation. You waive, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all moral rights in the Feedback. Feedback is provided voluntarily and is not confidential; we are under no obligation to use it or to keep it in confidence. This Section does not apply to your User Content.

2.5 Contributions. Any person who contributes code, designs, translations, illustrations or other material to the App as an employee, contractor, freelancer or volunteer of the Provider assigns to the Provider all right, title and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to that contribution, effective on creation, and warrants that it is original or properly licensed, and waives moral rights to the extent permitted by law. Where a jurisdiction does not permit present assignment of future rights, the contributor agrees to execute such further documents as are reasonably required to give effect to this Section.

2.6 Open source. The App incorporates third-party open-source components, each licensed under its own terms. Nothing in this Policy limits your rights under those licences, and to the extent any open-source licence conflicts with this Policy, that licence prevails for the component in question. A list of components and licences is available in the App's settings or on request at support@umango.in.

3. Permitted references to the App

You may refer to the App by name, and use unaltered screenshots of it, for the purposes of review, commentary, news reporting, teaching, research, tutorials and comparison, provided that you do not: alter the App's logo or brand assets; use them as your own or in a way suggesting sponsorship or endorsement by us; incorporate them into your own product name, logo or domain; or use them in a manner that is disparaging, misleading or unlawful.

4. Your content: ownership and licence

4.1 You own your User Content. Nothing in this Policy or in the Terms of Service transfers ownership of your posts, images or other material to the Provider.

4.2 The licence you grant us to operate the App is set out in Section 9.2 of the Terms of Service and is limited to what is necessary to run the App and its Feed. We do not sell your content, licence it to third parties for their own purposes, or use it in advertising without your separate consent.

4.3 Your warranty. You warrant that you hold all rights necessary in your User Content and that it does not infringe any third party's rights. You are solely responsible for obtaining any licence, release or consent required for material you did not create — including stock images, embedded media, quotations and photographs of identifiable people.

4.4 AI-generated material. If you publish material generated in whole or in part by an artificial-intelligence tool, you remain solely responsible for it, including for any infringement, inaccuracy or third-party right it may implicate, and for any labelling or disclosure obligation applicable to you under law or under Google's policies. The Provider makes no representation about the copyright status of AI-generated material in any jurisdiction.

5. Prohibited uses

The acceptable-use rules are set out in Section 8 of the Terms of Service and are incorporated here in full. In summary, you must not use the App to infringe intellectual property; to publish unlawful, defamatory, deceptive, obscene or child-endangering material; to harass or incite hatred or violence; to promote terrorism or illegal activity; to spam or to manipulate the Feed, search or recommendation systems; to impersonate any person or entity — including by suggesting that your content is official Google, Blogger or Blogspot output, or is affiliated with or endorsed by the Provider; to distribute malware; to violate anyone's privacy; to breach Google's terms; or to violate any applicable law.

You additionally must not: reverse engineer the App except where a mandatory statutory right permits it; scrape or automate access to our backend; circumvent security, attestation, entitlement or rate-limiting controls; use the App or its output to train, fine-tune or evaluate a machine-learning model without our written consent; or resell, sublicense or redistribute the App.

6. Copyright, trademark and content complaints

6.1 What we can and cannot do

The App does not host blogs. If content you consider infringing is published on a Blogger/Blogspot blog, the host is Google, and the effective remedy is a notice to Google under its own process (https://support.google.com/legal). What we can do is remove the material from the App's Feed, search index, recommendations and caches.

6.2 How to send us a notice

Send a written notice to support@umango.in with the subject line "Copyright Notice", "Trademark Notice" or "Content Complaint", containing:

1. your name, postal address, telephone number and email address;
2. identification of the work or mark you claim is infringed, and, for a trademark, the registration number and jurisdiction if registered;
3. the exact URL(s) of the material in the App, and enough detail for us to locate it;
4. a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the rights-holder, its agent or the law;
5. a statement that the information in the notice is accurate, and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the rights-holder or authorised to act on the rights-holder's behalf; and
6. your physical or electronic signature.

6.3 What we do

We acknowledge within 24 hours and act on a valid, complete notice within 15 days (and sooner where the content falls within the categories requiring 24-hour action under the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021). Where practicable we will notify the affected user and give them an opportunity to respond.

6.4 Counter-notice

If your content was removed and you believe the removal was in error or that you are authorised to use the material, send a counter-notice to support@umango.in with your contact details, identification of the material and its former location, a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the removal was a mistake or misidentification, and your signature. We will review it and, where the counter-notice is well-founded, restore the material.

6.5 Repeat infringers

We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.

6.6 Misuse

Knowingly making a material misrepresentation in a notice or counter-notice is unlawful in many jurisdictions and may expose you to liability for damages and costs.

7. Blog owner exclusion requests

If you own a public Blogger/Blogspot blog and do not want it indexed, cached, recommended, followable or surfaced anywhere in the App, write to support@umango.in from an address or Google Account associated with the blog, giving the blog URL. We will exclude it, ordinarily within 15 days. This is in addition to, and does not limit, your rights under Section 4.3 of the Privacy Policy.

8. Enforcement

We may, at our discretion and without prior notice where the circumstances warrant it, remove or restrict content in the App, limit features, suspend or terminate access, and report matters to Google, to a Store or to the authorities, where we reasonably believe this Policy or the Terms of Service has been breached. Nothing in this Policy obliges us to monitor content, and no failure to act in one case waives our right to act in another.

9. General

9.1 This Policy is governed by the laws of India and is subject to the dispute resolution provisions in Section 17 and Section 18 of the Terms of Service, including the consumer carve-outs set out there.

9.2 If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed, and the remainder shall continue in full force.

9.3 We may update this Policy in accordance with Section 19 of the Terms of Service. The current version is always available at https://umango.in/blog-manager/ip-policy.
