Terms of Service

Last updated on December 21, 2025.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Commune (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, you may not use the Service.

2. The Service

Commune is a "Headless Social Network" that allows newsletter creators to generate a community space for their subscribers. We provide the infrastructure (the "Town Square"), but we do not create the content.

3. Beta Access

  • "As Is" Basis: You acknowledge that Commune is currently in Beta. The Service may contain bugs, errors, or experience downtime.

4. User Accounts & Responsibilities

  • Security: You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and API keys.
  • API Usage: You agree not to abuse the API limits or attempt to scrape data from the Service.

5. Content & Ownership

  • Your Content: You retain full ownership of your newsletter archives and subscriber lists. Commune claims no intellectual property rights over the material you sync from your ESP.
  • License to Us: You grant Commune a limited, non-exclusive license to display, host, and reproduce your content solely for the purpose of operating your community space.
  • Community Guidelines: You are responsible for moderating your community. However, Commune reserves the right to remove content or ban communities that promote hate speech, violence, illegal activities, or harassment. We stand for the Open Web, but not for abuse.

6. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your account immediately, without prior notice or liability, if you breach these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service will immediately cease, and we will delete your synced data.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Commune shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data (including subscriber lists), or goodwill.

8. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Spain. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be resolved in the courts of Badajoz, Spain.
