Welcome to WYA. By using our service, you agree to these terms. Please read them carefully.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By creating an account or using WYA("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. The Service is a hyperlocal social platform where users post short messages tied to their location and see posts from others nearby (within approximately 5 miles).
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years of age to use the Service. If you are under 18, you should have a parent or guardian review these terms with you. By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements.
3. Your Account and Location
To post and participate, you must allow location access. We store your approximate location (e.g. in a cookie) to show you a feed of posts near you and to attach your location to your posts. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for all activity under your account. Do not share your account with others.
4. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Post content that is illegal, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable
- Impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation
- Spam, scrape, or use automated means to access the Service without permission
- Attempt to circumvent location-based features or feed ranking
- Interfere with or disrupt the Service or servers or networks connected to it
We may remove content and suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or our policies.
5. Your Content
You retain ownership of the content you post. By posting, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, store, display, and distribute that content in connection with operating and providing the Service. You are responsible for your content and that it does not infringe others' rights.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee accuracy of location data, feed relevance, or uninterrupted access. Your use of the Service is at your own risk.
7. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, WYA and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, revenue, or profits, arising from your use of the Service.
8. Changes and Termination
We may update these terms from time to time; continued use after changes constitutes acceptance. We may modify or discontinue the Service with reasonable notice where feasible. You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access for violation of these terms.
