  • You are responsible for ensuring you have the rights to upload and share any media.

6. Federation and deletion

This service is federated. Public content and interactions may be delivered to other servers and clients, which may cache or store copies outside our control. Deleting content here does not guarantee deletion everywhere.

7. Moderation and enforcement

Moderators may remove content, limit reach, apply warnings, or suspend accounts to keep the community safe and usable. Enforcement is discretionary and may be immediate in urgent cases.

8. Availability

This is a best‑effort service. We aim for stability but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Maintenance or incident response may require temporary disruption.

9. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, the service is provided “as is” and “as available”. We disclaim warranties and are not liable for indirect or consequential loss (including loss of content, data, profits, or business interruption). Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under law.

10. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the operator from claims and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your content, your use of the service, or your breach of these terms.

11. Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be communicated where practical.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and disputes are subject to the courts of England and Wales.

13. Severability

If any part of these terms is found unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining parts remain in full force.

14. No waiver

If we do not enforce a provision, that is not a waiver of our right to do so later.

15. Assignment

We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms as part of a merger, acquisition, reorganisation, or sale of assets. You may not transfer your rights or obligations without our written consent.

16. Entire agreement

These terms (and any referenced policies) form the entire agreement between you and us regarding the service.
