Terms of Use

What this site is

A catalogue of entries published and controlled by the people they describe. It is not an agency. There is no roster, no management, no dispatcher and nobody who speaks on anyone's behalf. Contacts on an entry reach that person directly.

The site is not party to anything

Nothing is arranged here. The directory does not negotiate, does not agree terms, does not hold deposits and has no payment mechanism in either direction. Whatever is agreed after a first message is agreed between the two people involved, and the site is not a party to it, does not witness it and cannot enforce it.

It follows that any demand for money presented as a fee owed to this directory did not come from it. There is nothing here such a payment could be for.

Using the catalogue

Reading requires no account. You may not copy the catalogue wholesale, scrape it, or republish entries or photographs elsewhere — those belong to the people who published them here, not to the site and not to a reader.

Contacts are published so that a person can be reached about what her entry describes. Using them for bulk messaging, advertising or harassment is a misuse of them, and entries carry a report link precisely so that this can be reported.

Publishing an entry

Everyone listed is eighteen or over. An entry stating an age below eighteen is refused by the system rather than reviewed, and no such entry can exist here.

An entry must describe the person publishing it. Photographs must be of her and published with her agreement. Publishing anyone else's images, or describing anyone other than yourself, is grounds for removal on sight.

What the entry says is its author's to decide, and the site does not rewrite it. Content is refused where it names an age under eighteen, implies coercion, or advertises something the site does not carry.

Moderation and removal

Photographs are released by a moderator before they appear. Reports reach moderation directly. An urgent report hides the entry while it is being examined rather than after — that order is deliberate, and it is the one case where the site acts before asking.

An author can withdraw her entry at any time, for any reason or none. The site can remove an entry that breaks the rules above, and does so without argument where the rule is one of the non-negotiable ones.

No warranty about anyone

Entries are statements their authors made about themselves. The site carries them without confirming them: it does not verify nationality, does not request documents, and makes no claim about anyone beyond what that person wrote. The verification mark covers photographs against the person in them and extends no further.
