You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. By using VeganCommunity, you represent that you meet this requirement and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

Some features (such as rating recipes or accessing your profile) require an account. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.

You retain ownership of any content you submit (comments, ratings, profile information). By submitting content, you grant VeganCommunity a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, display, reproduce, and distribute that content in connection with operating and promoting the Service.

You are solely responsible for the content you submit. You agree not to post content that is unlawful, defamatory, hateful, harassing, infringing, obscene, or otherwise objectionable.

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms.
• Post spam, advertisements, or unsolicited promotional content.
• Harass, threaten, or harm other users.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service.
• Reverse-engineer, scrape, or systematically collect content without permission.
• Interfere with the security or integrity of the Service.

All recipes, photography, written content, design, and code on VeganCommunity are owned by VeganCommunity or licensed to it, and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may share links to our recipes and reproduce small portions for personal, non-commercial use with attribution. Republishing entire recipes or photos without permission is prohibited.

Recipes and nutrition information are provided for informational and educational purposes only. Calorie and macronutrient values are estimates and may vary based on ingredients and preparation. The Service does not provide medical or nutritional advice. Consult a qualified healthcare professional before making dietary decisions, especially if you have allergies, medical conditions, or are pregnant.

The Service may contain links to third-party websites or display third-party advertisements. We do not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for any third-party content or services. Your interactions with third parties are solely between you and them.

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, VeganCommunity shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of the Service.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless VeganCommunity, its operators, affiliates, and contributors from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Service.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including violation of these Terms. You may stop using the Service at any time.

We may revise these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which VeganCommunity operates, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
