Terms of Service

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into this agreement. You may not use unmaskd. if you are prohibited from receiving services under applicable law. By joining, you confirm that you have not been convicted of a felony, sexual offence, violent crime, or any offence that would put other members at risk. We reserve the right to terminate access for members who misrepresent this.

2. Your account

Provide accurate information, protect your login credentials, and promptly tell us about unauthorized use. You are responsible for activity performed through your account. One person may not impersonate another, create deceptive accounts, or use the service to evade a suspension.

3. The service

unmaskd. is a social connection platform — but it is not a paid matchmaking service. We do not guarantee matches, friendships, relationships, messages, responses, compatibility, identity, conduct, availability, or any other particular outcome. Features may change as the service develops.

4. Your content

You retain ownership of content you submit. You give unmaskd. a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, and process that content only as needed to operate, secure, improve, and provide the service. This license ends when the content is deleted, except where retention is reasonably required for backups, safety, legal compliance, or dispute resolution.

You must have the right to share your content. Do not upload illegal, infringing, exploitative, or privacy-invasive material.

5. Safety and member conduct

You must follow the Membership Agreement and the Acceptable Use Policy. We may review reports, restrict features, remove content, suspend accounts, or terminate access when reasonably necessary to protect members, comply with law, or enforce these agreements.

Background checks. unmaskd. does not conduct criminal background checks on members. You are responsible for your own safety when interacting with others. Exercise judgement before meeting offline, sharing personal information, or continuing contact with someone who makes you uncomfortable.

Child safety. unmaskd. has a zero-tolerance policy for child sexual abuse material (CSAM), grooming, solicitation of minors, or any sexual or exploitative content involving people under 18. Violations result in immediate permanent termination and will be reported to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) and relevant law enforcement. Non-consensual intimate imagery is also prohibited and subject to the same enforcement.

6. Purchases and optional support

Using unmaskd. does not require payment. See our Pricing page for what is and isn't free. unmaskd. may offer an optional support contribution so members can voluntarily help cover development, hosting, safety, moderation, accessibility, and operating costs. Optional support does not purchase features, account access, connection outcomes, matching priority, visibility, messaging access, priority placement, or any other special treatment — see our Refund Policy for how contributions are handled. If paid features are introduced in the future, pricing, renewal, cancellation, and refund terms will be shown before purchase. unmaskd. is not a nonprofit or charitable organization. Optional support payments are not charitable donations and are not tax-deductible.

7. Third parties and member interactions

Members are responsible for their own interactions and decisions. Use care before meeting someone, sharing sensitive information, moving conversations off-platform, or sending money. unmaskd. is not responsible for third-party services or transactions between members.

8. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the service is provided “as is” and “as available.” We disclaim implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Nothing in these Terms excludes rights that cannot legally be waived.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, unmaskd. will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data, profits, opportunities, or relationships arising from use of the service. Applicable consumer-protection law may give you rights beyond this limitation.

10. Ending use

You may stop using the service and request account deletion. We may suspend or end access for material or repeated violations, safety risks, legal requirements, or misuse of the service. Provisions that logically survive termination remain effective.

11. Changes and contact

We may update these Terms as the service or law changes. Material changes will be communicated before they take effect where required. Questions can be submitted through the contact information on our Contact page.

12. empower. by unmaskd

empower. by unmaskd is a separate service for finding work through capabilities and portfolio evidence. These Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Community Guidelines also apply to empower., with these additions.

• Separate account. An empower. account is separate from an unmaskd. account. Connecting the two is optional, and deleting one does not delete the other.
• Access. empower. is in private development. We decide who may use it, and we may limit, pause or end access at any time.
• Your profile. You are responsible for what you publish. Only describe capabilities and work that are your own. You can unpublish or delete your profile at any time.
• Companies. A company profile must describe a real organization you are allowed to represent. empower. does not verify companies. Introduction requests must be about genuine opportunities. Do not use anything you see on empower. to discriminate, to screen people out on the basis of disability or how they work, or for any purpose other than the opportunity you contacted them about.
• Introductions and messages. A company can only message you after you accept its introduction request. Either person can block the other. Reports are reviewed by unmaskd.
• No guarantee of work. empower. is not an employer, recruiter or staffing agency, and does not guarantee any interview, job or payment. Any work arrangement is between you and the company.
