• share someone else's personal information without permission

We may remove content and/or suspend accounts for violations.

6) Moderation and Enforcement

We may (but are not obligated to) review, remove, or restrict access to User Content and may take action we deem appropriate (including suspending or terminating accounts) to enforce these Terms and maintain community safety.

7) Intellectual Property

The Service (including its design, branding, and software) is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, or distribute our content or code except as allowed by law or with our written permission.

9) Third-Party Services

The Service may link to or integrate with third-party services. We are not responsible for third-party services, content, or practices.

10) Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not guarantee the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.

11) Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATED TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US (IF ANY) IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

(Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.)

12) Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your use of the Service, your User Content, or your violation of these Terms.

13) Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access at any time if we believe you violated these Terms, created risk, or used the Service unlawfully. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including content license, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification) will survive.

14) Changes to the Service or Terms

We may modify the Service or these Terms from time to time. The "Last Updated" date will reflect changes. Continued use after changes means you agree to the updated Terms.

15) Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought in the state or federal courts located in New York, and you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue there.
