Terms of Service

Welcome to OpenUpvote

OpenUpvote is a community for sharing and discovering new projects. By using the site you agree to these simple guidelines designed to keep things helpful, safe, and fun.

Your Content

You own anything you post—descriptions, screenshots, comments. When you share it on OpenUpvote you give us permission to display it on the site and feature it in our marketing. You can remove your content any time and we'll stop showing it publicly.

Community Guidelines

To keep OpenUpvote welcoming for everyone, please follow these guidelines:

• • Be respectful and constructive in comments
• • Share genuine projects, not spam or low-effort content
• • Don't manipulate votes or create fake accounts
• • Respect others' intellectual property
• • Keep content appropriate for a professional audience

What We Provide

OpenUpvote provides the platform as-is. We work hard to keep it running smoothly but can't guarantee 100% uptime. We may modify features, change policies, or shut down the service with reasonable notice.

Account Responsibilities

You're responsible for your account security and all activity under your account. Use a strong password and don't share your login credentials. Let us know immediately if you suspect unauthorized access.

Prohibited Activities

To maintain a positive environment, these activities are not allowed:

• • Posting harmful, illegal, or offensive content
• • Harassment, bullying, or threatening behavior
• • Spam, excessive self-promotion, or misleading content
• • Attempting to hack, disrupt, or misuse the platform
• • Impersonating others or creating misleading profiles

Enforcement

If you violate these terms, we may remove content, suspend your account, or ban you from the platform. We'll try to be fair and give warnings when appropriate, but reserve the right to take immediate action for serious violations.

Privacy & Data

We collect and use your information as described in our Privacy Policy. We don't sell your personal data to third parties. You can request to delete your account and data at any time.

Disclaimers

OpenUpvote is provided "as is" without warranties. We're not responsible for user-generated content, external links, or any damages from using the platform. Our total liability is limited to the amount you've paid us (which is currently $0).

Changes to Terms

We may update these terms occasionally. We'll notify users of significant changes via email or site notice. Continued use of OpenUpvote after changes means you accept the updated terms.
