Terms of Service

Welcome to OnYourSite!

By accessing, registering for, or using OnYourSite (the "Service"), you explicitly agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to every provision of these terms, you are not authorized to use our Service. Your continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

1. Jurisdiction & Provider Status

OnYourSite is operated as a free, non-commercial service. The platform is hosted and legally governed under the laws of the State of Arizona, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Because we do not operate as a registered commercial corporate entity, do not sell physical or digital goods, and do not serve advertisements, we are not legally obligated under US law to publicly disclose a physical address. All official and legal inquiries must be directed to the contact email provided in our Legal Notice.

2. User Responsibility & Local Laws

Compliance with Local Laws: While our platform operates under US jurisdiction, you must comply with the laws of your own country of residence regarding the content you publish.

For example: If you reside in a country within the European Union (e.g., Germany, Austria) that legally requires an "Impressum" (Imprint) for publicly accessible websites, it is your explicit responsibility to add a link or button to your profile containing your required contact information. We will not be held liable for any legal warnings, fines, or damages (e.g., Abmahnungen) directed at you due to missing legal disclosures on your personal profile.

3. Acceptable Use & Content Moderation

You agree not to use the Service to publish, host, or distribute:

• Content that is illegal, fraudulent, or promotes illegal activities.
• Hate speech, harassment, severe bullying, threats, or discriminatory content.
• Nudity, pornography, or sexually explicit material.
• Malware, phishing links, spam, or malicious scripts.
• Content that incites violence or self-harm.

Zero Tolerance Policy: We reserve the absolute and unquestionable right to suspend, block, or permanently delete any user account, subdomain, or content at any time, without prior notice or explanation, if we determine that the content is inappropriate, harmful, or violates these Terms.

4. Intellectual Property & Copyright (DMCA)

You retain all rights to the content you upload. By uploading content, you grant OnYourSite a license to host, display, and distribute that content solely for the purpose of operating the Service.

We respect the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and is accessible via the Service, please notify us immediately via email. We process valid DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) takedown notices and will remove infringing content or terminate accounts of repeat infringers.

5. Subdomains & Trademarks

Users are allowed to claim available subdomains on a first-come, first-served basis. However, you may not claim subdomains that explicitly violate established trademark rights of third parties (e.g., claiming "apple.on-your.site" or "nike.on-your.site") with malicious intent or to impersonate the brand. We reserve the right to reclaim, reassign, or delete subdomains that violate trademark laws or are used for cybersquatting.

6. Age Requirements

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you must have the permission of your parent or legal guardian to use the Service. By registering an account, you represent and warrant that you meet these age requirements.

7. Service Availability & Uptime

We strive to keep OnYourSite online and running smoothly. However, the Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. We do not guarantee 100% uptime. The Service may experience unexpected outages, scheduled maintenance windows, or temporary data loss. We are not liable for any damages or losses resulting from the unavailability of your profile or our platform.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall OnYourSite, its administrators, or contributors be liable for any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses, that result from the use of, or inability to use, this Service.

9. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless OnYourSite and its administrators from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney's fees) arising from: (a) your use of and access to the Service; (b) your violation of any term of these Terms of Service; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy right; or (d) any claim that your content caused damage to a third party.

10. Modifications to Terms

We reserve the right to modify, replace, or update these Terms of Service or our Privacy Policy at any time, without prior individual notice for minor adjustments.

However, if a revision constitutes a major, material change that significantly impacts your rights or obligations, we will make reasonable efforts to provide at least one (1) week's notice prior to any new terms taking effect (e.g., via an announcement in your dashboard or an email newsletter). What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion. By continuing to access or use our Service after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms.
