Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and KoalaForums governing your use of KoalaForums and its related sites and apps (the “Service”). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind it.

You are responsible for your account and for keeping your credentials secure; you must be old enough to form a binding contract and to meet the minimum-age requirements in our Privacy Policy. Provide accurate information, do not share or transfer your account, and tell us promptly at support@koalaforums.com if you suspect unauthorized use. You may close your account at any time.

You agree not to:

• break the law or infringe anyone’s rights;
• post content that is unlawful, harassing, hateful, defamatory, or that sexualizes minors;
• upload malware, attempt to breach security, or probe, scrape, or overload the Service beyond what our interfaces permit;
• impersonate others, submit false reports, or manipulate ratings, votes, or reputation;
• reverse engineer, resell, or build a competing dataset from the Service except as the law expressly allows.

We may remove content and suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

You keep ownership of the content you create. To operate the Service, you grant KoalaForums a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, adapt, publish, and display your content for the purpose of running and promoting the Service and its features. This license ends when you delete the content or your account, except for content others have already shared or that we must retain by law, and for anonymized or aggregated data. You are responsible for your content and confirm you have the rights to post it.

The Service, including its software, design, and branding, is owned by KoalaForums or its licensors and is protected by intellectual-property laws. Factual catalog data may originate from third-party or public sources and remains subject to their rights. We respect copyright and respond to valid notices under the DMCA. To report infringing material, send a notice with the required details to dmca@koalaforums.com. Repeat infringers are terminated.

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that catalog or other information is accurate or complete. Your use is at your own risk.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, KoalaForums and its suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim or US $100. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

You agree to indemnify and hold KoalaForums harmless from claims, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or the rights of others.

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms or to protect the Service or other users. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (content license grants already relied on, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification) will survive.

We may update these Terms; material changes will be surfaced in-app or by email, and your continued use after they take effect means you accept them. If you do not agree, stop using the Service.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and you and KoalaForums submit to the courts located there, unless a mandatory consumer-protection law in your country grants you the right to bring proceedings locally.
