Terms of Use

Last updated: November 15, 2026

Gourd-chat is a small, independent site run by one person from their own computer. By making an account or using the site, you agree to these terms.

Who can use it

You must be 18 or older. One person per account, and you're responsible for what happens on your account. Keep your password and recovery code safe.

Your stuff

You keep ownership of what you post. By posting, you let Gourd-chat store and show it to the people you shared it with, for as long as you keep it up. You promise you have the right to post it.

Rules

Follow the rules. The admin can remove anything and suspend or close any account, at any time, especially to keep people safe.

No guarantees

The site is provided as-is, for fun, with no promises that it will always be up, fast, or that nothing will ever be lost. Keep your own copies of anything important. As far as the law allows, Gourd-chat and its admin aren't responsible for losses from using it.

Leaving

You can delete your account any time in Setup. The admin can close the site or change these terms; big changes will be announced on the site.
