The Stickifax Service is provided to you by Stickifax Ltd. These Terms of Use therefore constitute an agreement between you and Stickifax Ltd.
The Stickifax Service
We agree to provide you with the Stickifax Service. The Service includes all of the Stickifax products, features, applications, services, technologies, and software that we provide to advance Stickifax's mission: To bring you closer to the people and things you love. The Service is made up of the following aspects (the Service):
- Providing personalized means to connect, communicate, discover, create, and share.
People have different interests, some of which change from time to time. We want to help strengthen relationships and even create new ones through mutual interests you currently nurture, as well as shared experiences. Hence, we provide a service that tries to figure out who and what you and others care about, and use that information to help you find and join communities, discover, and also share knowledge in subject matters and experiences that matter to you. Part of that is highlighting content, features, communities and accounts that might interest you, and providing ways for you to experience Stickifax, based on things you and others do on and off Stickifax. - Nurturing an inclusive, positive and safe environment.
We work to combat abuse and violations of our Terms and policies, as well as harmful behaviour. We use all the information we have — including yours — to try to keep our platform secure. We may also share information about misuse or harmful content with law enforcement. Learn more in our Privacy Policy. - Developing and using technologies that help us consistently serve our growing community.
Collecting, coordinating, and analyzing information for a growing community is central to our Service. A key part of our Service is the use of front-line technologies which help us personalize, protect, and build on our Service on a large scale for a global community. Automated technologies help us ensure the functionality and solidarity of our Service. - Supplying a stable global infrastructure for our Service.
To provide our global Service, we must store and transfer data across systems around the world, including outside of your country of residence. This infrastructure may be owned or operated by other parties.
