We do not routinely monitor, review, or moderate content posted on hosted forums.

Forum Owner Responsibilities

Forum owners are responsible for managing and moderating their communities, establishing forum rules, responding to complaints, and ensuring compliance with applicable laws.

Account Suspension and Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, violate applicable law, create security risks, abuse service resources, or repeatedly infringe intellectual property rights.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, ForkBB.net shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or exemplary damages arising from the use of the service.

Our total liability shall not exceed the amount paid by the customer during the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

We may disclose information when required by law, court order, legal process, or when necessary to protect the security and integrity of our services.

Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect information stored on our systems. However, no method of storage or transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.

Information may be retained as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
