Terms of Service

Version 2026-10-26. Last updated October 26, 2026.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are the agreement between you and [OWNER: the legal name of the person or company that runs FLOORHOLLER] ("we", "us") about your use of FLOORHOLLER at https://floorholler.web.app (the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Community Guidelines. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. You can still read public pages without an account.

1. What FLOORHOLLER is

FLOORHOLLER is a public discussion site. People post questions and statements and reply to each other. Everything is public. FLOORHOLLER has no private messaging, private groups or private conversations, and you should not expect anything you post to be private. The Service is currently run and moderated by one administrator, who posts publicly as "Roscoe".

2. Your account

• You sign in with a Google account and choose a public username. You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service.
• You are responsible for activity on your account. Keep your Google account secure.
• Your username is public. Your Google name, email address and photo are not shown to other users.
• We may suspend or ban accounts as described in section 6. A restriction applies to the person behind the account, not only to one username. Creating new accounts to avoid a restriction is not allowed.

3. You are responsible for what you post

You are responsible for everything you submit, including threads, replies, statements and opinions ("Your Content"). Please think before you post. You confirm that you have the right to post Your Content and that it does not break the law or anyone else's rights.

You keep ownership of Your Content. You give us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, display, reproduce and distribute Your Content as part of running the Service, including making it visible to the public and to search engines. This license lasts as long as Your Content is on the Service, plus the time needed to remove it from backups and caches, and for any copies we must keep under section 6 or the law.

4. Other people's opinions are their own

Content posted by users represents the opinions and statements of those users. It does not necessarily reflect the views or positions of FLOORHOLLER, its owner, or its administrators. We do not endorse any user's content. We do not independently verify user submissions and do not guarantee that anything posted is accurate, complete or lawful. Do not rely on anything posted on the Service as legal, medical, financial or other professional advice.

5. What you may not post or do

You may not use the Service to:

• make credible threats of violence, or encourage, organize or facilitate violence;
• facilitate unlawful activity;
• publish another person's private personal information (for example a home address, phone number, email address, government ID number or financial account number) in order to target, intimidate or harass them;
• engage in targeted harassment or intimidation of a person;
• make false statements of fact about a person that unlawfully harm their reputation (defamation);
• commit fraud, run scams, or send spam or repetitive promotional messages;
• post sexual content involving minors, or any other content that is unlawful to distribute;
• infringe someone's copyright, trademark or other intellectual property rights;
• interfere with or attack the Service, use bots or automated posting, evade rate limits or restrictions, or try to manipulate votes or reports.

Disagreement, criticism and unpopular or controversial opinions are not prohibited. We do not remove content because of the viewpoint it expresses.

6. Moderation

We may review, temporarily hide, remove, or restrict access to content and accounts that violate these Terms or the Community Guidelines, or that create safety or security concerns. This can happen without prior notice when we think that is appropriate. Examples:

• Reports. Signed-in users can report content. Reports are reviewed by the administrator.
• Temporary hiding. Content can be hidden from public view, for example automatically when many different accounts report it, when it is reported as a threat, or when automated screening finds it may contain a threat or exposed private information. Hidden content is not deleted. It stays hidden until the administrator decides to restore or remove it. Automated tools make mistakes, and content that was hidden by mistake can be restored.
• Removal. Content that violates these Terms may be removed. We keep a private copy of removed or hidden content, and records of reports and decisions, as described in the Privacy Policy.
• Account restrictions. We may suspend an account for a period, or ban it permanently. You will be shown a reason when you try to use a restricted account.
• Emergency measures. We may pause new threads or replies, or limit how often accounts can post, to protect the Service.

We try, in good faith and using reasonable procedures, to respond to reports of unlawful, threatening, harmful, defamatory or otherwise prohibited content. We do not monitor everything continuously and we cannot promise that every violation will be found immediately or at all. If you think a moderation decision was a mistake, contact us (section 12).

7. Reporting problems and legal complaints

To report content that you think is unlawful, threatening, a privacy violation, defamatory or infringing, use the content and legal request form. Signed-in users can also use the Report button on any thread or reply. Copyright complaints are covered in our copyright policy. If someone is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services (911 in the United States) first. We are not an emergency service and cannot respond to emergencies.

8. Links and third parties

Users may post links to other websites. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for them. The Service uses Google services for sign-in and hosting; your use of them is also subject to Google's terms.

9. Our rights in the Service

The FLOORHOLLER name, logo, design and software belong to us or our licensors. Except for Your Content, you may not copy or reuse them without permission.

10. Disclaimers

To the extent the law allows, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful content. Some places do not allow certain disclaimers, so some of this may not apply to you.

11. Limits on our liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for content posted by users, for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for losses arising from your use of or inability to use the Service. Where the law does not allow a limitation, it does not apply. These Terms do not remove any responsibility that the law says cannot be removed, and do not claim that we can never be held responsible for anything. Federal law, including 47 U.S.C. § 230, gives certain legal protections to services that host content created by others; we do not promise that any particular protection applies in any particular situation.

12. Changes, ending, and contact

• Changes. We may update these Terms. For a material change we will ask you to accept the new version before you can post, reply, vote or report again. Small corrections do not require acceptance.
• Ending. You can stop using the Service at any time and you can delete your own threads and replies. We may suspend or end your access as described in section 6.
• Governing law. These Terms are governed by the laws of [OWNER: the U.S. state whose law should govern], without regard to conflict-of-law rules. [OWNER: attorney: confirm governing law and where disputes are heard]
• Contact. [OWNER: a contact email address, set CONTACT_EMAIL]
  [OWNER: a mailing address, set LEGAL_ADDRESS]
