This policy follows consensus and/or guidelines set by global functionaries. All WikiTide users should follow it, and changes made to it should be discussed on the talk page. In the event of any differences in meaning between the original English version and a translation, the original English version takes precedence. Shortcut: ToU Effective Date of this policy: This policy became effective on June 20, 2023. 1. Terms By accessing this website, you are agreeing to be bound by the following Terms and Conditions of Use, all applicable laws and regulations, and agree that you are responsible for compliance with any applicable local laws. If you do not agree with any of these terms, you are prohibited from using or accessing this site. The materials contained in this website are protected by applicable copyright and trademark law. 2. Copyright Violations By using services provided by WikiTide, you agree not to host any content without explicit permission from the copyright holder or any other legal entitlement to use the content. This applies to both private and public Wikis. Any repeated infringement of copyright may result in the termination of a user's account, wikis, or other appropriate legal actions. In the event of unauthorized copyrighted material being found, you may report the contents to us via sre@wikiforge.net. We strive to comply with the provisions outlined in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of the United States, which addresses copyright infringement on the internet. As the enforcement action and liability generally lie with the copyright holder under Section 512 of the DMCA, we hold no obligation to act on copyright requests unless requested by the copyright holder. WikiTide will act on complaints if it determines an unreasonable or unacceptable delay in handling non-legal requests to protect creative rights. 3. Privacy You agree to read and accept WikiTide's Privacy Policy, as well as the user rights and recourse documented therein. 4. Disclaimer The materials on WikiTide's website are provided "as is".

Because some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages, these limitations may not apply to you. 6.

WikiTide does not warrant that any of the materials on its website are accurate, complete, or current. WikiTide or its users may make changes to the materials contained on its website at any time without notice. WikiTide does not, however, make any commitment to update the materials. 7.

Hosting This section applies to people who run or manage Wikis hosted on the WikiTide service or have applied to do so. These people are typically called "bureaucrats", "sysops", or "administrators", but herein refers to anyone who holds a similarly privileged role on a Wiki. 9a. Providing Service WikiTide may, at its discretion, provide you with a Wiki within which you can place content. You agree that these Terms create no obligation to continue service for your Wiki. You also understand that donation to WikiTide does not imply an in-kind contract to provide service. You agree to let WikiTide personnel access your Wiki's content, change your Wiki's configuration, and remove or modify content in violation of WikiTide policy, for the purpose of providing service and subject to our Privacy Policy. 9b. Content If you create or administrate a wiki on WikiTide, you are expected to ensure that your wiki complies with the Content Policy. You acknowledge that wikis that repeatedly violate this policy are subject to suspension, removal, and/or deletion by WikiTide. 9c. Extensions and Customization As part of your service, you may request that WikiTide install additional extensions to the MediaWiki software to alter your Wiki's functionality. WikiTide will review the extensions to ensure that they are appropriate for our overall security and will function within our technical limits. WikiTide is not responsible for any data loss occurring as the result of extensions or software customization requested by users, and you agree not to hold WikiTide or its agents liable for any damages resulting from the use of these extensions. Any customization you make to your wiki must comply with WikiTide's Privacy Policy. 9d. Termination If the administrative staff of a wiki wishes to leave WikiTide and terminate hosting, or if a wiki is removed from service, WikiTide will provide data dumps of a wiki's content. These content archives will be maintained as long as it is legally, financially, or technically feasible to do so, at WikiTide's discretion. WikiTide may also permanently delete wiki content at the request of its administrators. You agree that any wiki you create is subject to our Dormancy Policy, and may be deleted due to inactivity. 10. Links WikiTide has not reviewed all of the sites linked and is not responsible for the contents of any such linked site. The inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement by WikiTide. Use of any such linked website is at the user's own risk. 11.
