3. Description of the service

The T is a social connection app based on proximity. The App uses:

6. User content

You retain ownership of the content you publish on The T (photos, messages, profile information). By publishing content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, display, and distribute that content as part of operating the App.

We reserve the right to remove any content that violates these terms or that is reported by other users.

7. Moderation and reporting

The T has an automated content moderation system and reporting tools. You can block or report any user whose behavior is inappropriate. We commit to reviewing reports as quickly as possible.

8. Intellectual property

The App, its design, code, and content are the property of The T. You are not authorized to copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works of the App without our written permission.

11. Changes

We reserve the right to change these terms at any time. Users will be notified of significant changes. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
