Terms of Service

Last updated: [DATE]

1. What this service is

[COMPANY NAME] ("we", "us") operates a platform where registered users can add public influencer profiles, submit recommendations attributed to those influencers, and rate recommendations on a 1–5 star scale. All ratings are visible to all visitors.

2. Your account

You must be at least [MINIMUM AGE, e.g. 18] years old. You must provide a valid email address and verify it before posting or rating. You are responsible for keeping your credentials secret and for all activity under your account. We may require additional identity verification in the future and may suspend accounts that fail verification.

3. Your content — you are responsible for it

You retain ownership of content you submit, but you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display it on the service. You represent that:

4. Prohibited conduct

No defamation, harassment, threats, or hateful content. No spam, bots, scraping, vote manipulation, or coordinated rating campaigns. No impersonation. No unlawful content. Automated verification is assistive only; attempting to evade it is a violation.

5. Ratings are opinions

Star ratings and reviews are the subjective opinions of individual users, not statements of fact by us and not endorsements. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any user content.

6. Moderation and takedown

We may, at our discretion, remove or hide content, restrict accounts, or terminate accounts that violate these terms or the Community Guidelines. We operate a notice-and-takedown process: rights-holders and subjects of content may contact [ABUSE CONTACT EMAIL] to request review. We aim to review reports within [TIMEFRAME, e.g. 5 business days] but make no guarantee.

7. Account termination

We may suspend or terminate your account for violations, fraud, or abuse, with or without notice. You may delete your account at any time by contacting [CONTACT EMAIL]; ratings you submitted may be retained in anonymized aggregate form.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the service is provided "as is" without warranties. We are not liable for user content, for decisions you make based on ratings, or for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages. Our total liability is limited to [AMOUNT, e.g. $100 or amounts paid].

9. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of [JURISDICTION]. Disputes will be resolved by [DISPUTE PROCESS, e.g. binding arbitration in JURISDICTION / courts of JURISDICTION].

10. Changes

We may update these terms; material changes will be announced [NOTICE METHOD, e.g. by email or site banner] at least [NOTICE PERIOD, e.g. 14 days] in advance.
