Member Safety and Offline Interactions
ClearMorrow does not guarantee the identity, background, health status, treatment status, recovery status, intentions, statements, qualifications, or conduct of any member. Any verification or profile badge is not a background check and does not eliminate risk.
- Do not send money, financial credentials, medication, identification documents, or valuable property to people you meet through the Service.
- Be cautious when someone pressures you to move immediately to private channels or asks for secrecy.
- When meeting offline, choose a public place, arrange your own transportation, tell a trusted person your plans, and leave if you feel unsafe.
- Do not rely solely on a profile, badge, mutual connection, group membership, or personal story as proof that someone is trustworthy.
- Report suspicious, exploitative, threatening, or fraudulent behavior promptly.
You are responsible for your interactions with other users. ClearMorrow is not responsible for agreements, transactions, meetings, relationships, injuries, losses, or disputes between members, except where responsibility cannot legally be excluded.

Enforcement may include warnings, reduced distribution, content removal, feature restrictions, temporary suspension, permanent termination, device or network blocking, record preservation, and referral to appropriate authorities.
We may make mistakes and are not required to provide an appeal in every matter. When an appeal process is available, you agree to use it honestly and not submit abusive or repetitive appeals.
12
Copyright and Intellectual-Property Complaints

Your complaint should identify the copyrighted work, the allegedly infringing material and its location, your contact information, and include your physical or electronic signature.
It should also state that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized and that the information is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act for the copyright owner.
Knowingly submitting a false complaint may create legal liability. A person whose content was removed may submit a counter-notice where permitted by law. ClearMorrow may terminate accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.
13
ClearMorrow Intellectual Property
The Service, excluding User Content, is owned by or licensed to ClearMorrow. This includes software, design, layout, logos, names, graphics, databases, features, and original content.
We grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Service as intended. You may not copy, sell, license, modify, distribute, create derivative works from, or commercially exploit protected portions of the Service without written permission.
14
Third-Party Services and Links
The Service may contain links, integrations, embeds, advertisements, payment tools, or content operated by third parties. ClearMorrow does not control and is not responsible for third-party services, products, security, availability, content, or privacy practices.
Your use of a third-party service is governed by that provider’s terms. A link or integration does not mean ClearMorrow endorses the provider. Review third-party terms before sharing information or completing a transaction.
15
Paid Features, Subscriptions, and Purchases
If ClearMorrow offers paid features, pricing, renewal terms, taxes, cancellation rules, and refund eligibility will be disclosed before purchase. You authorize the applicable payment provider to charge the payment method you select.
Unless required by law or stated at purchase, charges are nonrefundable after the paid service is delivered. You are responsible for cancelling recurring services before renewal. We may change future prices with advance notice where required.
16
Service Communications and Electronic Notices
You consent to receive account, security, moderation, transactional, and legal communications electronically, including by email, website notice, or in-account notification. These messages may be necessary to provide the Service and may not be optional.
Where permitted, you may separately choose whether to receive promotional messages and may unsubscribe using the instructions provided. You are responsible for keeping your contact information current.
17
Availability, Maintenance, and Changes
We may add, remove, limit, suspend, update, redesign, or discontinue any part of the Service. Maintenance, technical problems, security incidents, provider failures, or events outside our control may cause interruptions or loss of functionality.
We do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or permanent availability. You are responsible for keeping copies of important content and information you post or store through the Service.
18
Account Suspension, Termination, and Deletion
You may stop using ClearMorrow at any time and may request account deletion using available settings or the Contact page. Deletion may not remove content that others have copied, reshared, or independently stored.
ClearMorrow may restrict, suspend, or terminate access without advance notice when reasonably necessary because of a Terms violation, safety concern, fraud, security risk, legal requirement, prolonged inactivity, nonpayment, or discontinuation of the Service.
After termination, provisions that by their nature should survive will remain effective, including ownership, licenses already required for retained records, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, dispute terms, and general provisions.
19
Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. ClearMorrow disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, noninfringement, quiet enjoyment, and warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.
We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, accurate, complete, free of harmful components, or suitable for your needs. We do not endorse or guarantee User Content, member statements, identities, qualifications, offers, products, advice, relationships, or transactions.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions. In those jurisdictions, exclusions apply only to the extent legally permitted.
20
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, ClearMorrow and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, affiliates, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages; lost profits, revenue, opportunities, goodwill, or data; personal decisions based on User Content; or harm arising from member interactions.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the total aggregate liability of the ClearMorrow parties for claims arising from or relating to the Service or these Terms will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid ClearMorrow during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim or (b) one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).
These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory and even if a remedy fails its essential purpose. They do not limit liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
21
Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless ClearMorrow and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, affiliates, licensors, and service providers from claims, damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from your User Content, your violation of these Terms, your unlawful use of the Service, your violation of another person’s rights, or your interactions and transactions with other users.
ClearMorrow may control the defense of a covered claim, and you agree to cooperate reasonably. You may not settle a claim imposing liability or obligations on ClearMorrow without written consent.
22
Disputes, Governing Law, and Venue
Informal resolution
Before filing a lawsuit, you and ClearMorrow agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally. Send a written description of the issue and requested resolution through the Contact page. Either party may proceed after 30 days if the dispute is not resolved.
Governing law
These Terms and disputes arising from them or the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where federal law applies or applicable consumer law requires otherwise.
Courts
Unless applicable law requires another location, the parties consent to the personal jurisdiction of state or federal courts serving Washington County, Maryland. Either party may bring an eligible individual claim in small-claims court.
Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking urgent temporary or injunctive relief to protect safety, security, confidential information, or intellectual-property rights.
23
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms to reflect changes in the Service, law, safety practices, technology, or business operations. The revised Terms will show a new effective date.
When changes are material, we may provide additional notice through the Service, by email, or by another reasonable method. Continued use after the revised Terms take effect means you accept them. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service and may request account deletion.
24
General Provisions

- Severability: If a provision is unenforceable, it will be modified only as much as necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue.
- No waiver: Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.
- Assignment: You may not transfer these Terms without written permission. ClearMorrow may assign them as part of a merger, financing, reorganization, sale, or transfer of the Service.
- No agency: These Terms do not create a partnership, employment, fiduciary, franchise, joint-venture, or agency relationship.
