Terms of Service

1. Who we are

Pollyplace (“Platform”, “we”, “us”) provides tools for creators to publish projects and for users to browse portfolios and message each other. We are a technology platform only — not an agency, marketplace escrow, employer, or party to any agreement between users.

2. Eligibility & accounts

You must provide accurate registration information and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for all activity under your account. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or applicable law.

3. Projects & user content

You retain ownership of content you upload. By publishing on Pollyplace you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, display, reproduce, and distribute that content solely to operate and promote the Platform.

You represent that you have all rights needed to publish your content and that it does not infringe others’ rights. See also our Content Rules.

4. Messaging & off-platform dealings

The Platform may let users contact each other. Messages, negotiations, contracts, payments, deliveries, and any other arrangements happen solely between those users. Pollyplace:

• is not a party to any deal, freelance engagement, or collaboration;
• does not verify users’ identity, skills, or reliability beyond basic account features;
• does not process payments for user-to-user work unless we explicitly offer that feature later;
• is not responsible for message content, misunderstandings, fraud, non-payment, or disputes.

Use messaging at your own risk. Prefer written agreements and safe payment practices outside the Platform when you engage commercially.

5. Disclaimer of warranties

The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant uninterrupted service, accuracy of listings, or fitness for a particular purpose.

6. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Pollyplace and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss arising from: user content; messages; deals or communications between users; reliance on portfolio materials; or unauthorized access to your account — whether based in contract, tort, or otherwise.

Our aggregate liability for claims relating to the Platform shall not exceed the greater of (a) fees you paid us for Platform services in the 12 months before the claim, or (b) one hundred US dollars (or local equivalent), if no fees were paid.

7. Moderation

We may remove content, restrict features, or disable accounts for Content Rules violations, legal requests, security risks, or abuse — with or without prior notice when reasonably necessary.

8. Privacy

How we handle personal data is described in our Privacy Policy.

9. Changes

We may update these terms. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. Material changes will be indicated by updating the “Last updated” date on this page.
