By using Thread Reader (the "Site"), you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms of Use (the "Thread Reader") and/or any revised version. Any new service available on the Site or any modification of an existing service will be governed by the TOS, which may be modified or updated from time to time. We strongly encourage you to review the TOS regularly. The Site is operated in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Thread Reader makes available to its users ("You") access to a fully customizable Site that allows you to select and aggregate content provided by third parties ("Third Party Content") through computer programs called scrollers ("Unroller (s)", and tools that allow you to create and publish any content, of any kind, in accordance with the terms of the Thread Reader Terms and Conditions ("Thread Reader"). Thread Reader does not provide content but rather functions as an aggregator. A Un Unroller is defined as software that provides content, including data from third parties. It is composed of computer code, which is the exclusive property of Thread Reader.
Use of the Service is free of charge. However, access to Third Party Content may be subject to a charge: this billing is done outside of Thread Reader. Thread Reader does not host any Third Party Content and retains only technical and personal data in accordance with our privacy policy.
As a condition of accessing and using the Site and the Service, you agree to: Not to post, share or transmit in any way any illegal, obscene, harmful, harmful, threatening, defamatory, hateful or hateful content or content that contains objects or symbols of hatred, invades the privacy of any third party or is otherwise objectionable.
Respect the privacy of others and the confidentiality of information you may receive and not post, email or otherwise transmit unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional material, spam, spam, chain letters, pyramids or any other form of solicitation.
Do not harass another user of the Site or impersonate another user by any means. Always provide truthful, truthful and up-to-date personal data and information and update such data and information as necessary to keep it true, complete, accurate and up-to-date.
Respect the rights of others and, more generally, all applicable laws and regulations relating to your use of the Service, and not make available any content that you do not have the legal right to transmit (including any content that violates any confidentiality or fiduciary obligation you may have) that infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party (including, but not limited to, copyrights, trademarks, trade-marks, trademarks, etc.). Not to engage in conduct, display or share any content that interrupts, destroys, restricts or otherwise adversely affects the Site and/or the Service or allows you to access the Site without permission, including by using viruses, malicious computer codes, programs or files.
Not to reproduce, copy, sell or use commercially (including the right of access) in whole or in part, the Service and/or the Site.
In the event of any violation of the foregoing, Thread Reader reserves the right to block your access to the Site and to disclose any information necessary to satisfy any law, regulation, governmental request or partner request, in its sole discretion. Thread Reader also reserves the right to block the distribution of Your Content or any Third Party Content through the Service.
To access and use the Service, you must be legally able to enter into a binding agreement and acknowledge that certain Third Party Content may be considered offensive by some and not suitable for persons under the age of 18. You must also comply with all applicable laws and regulations in Canada and, if applicable, your country of origin.
You also acknowledge that the activity of creating, submitting or sharing Your Content may give rise to various types of legal liability and you represent that Your Content (whether or not You are the author of such Content) is at all times (whether or not You are the author of such Content) (both at the time of its initial submission and throughout its access to the Site) compliant with the TOS and all applicable laws. You understand that Thread Reader has no control (other than technical if necessary) and does not pre-select Your Third Party Content and cannot be held responsible for their communication to the public.
You can publish and share Your Content by sending Third Party Content to a Unroller. You acknowledge that you share Your Content under your sole responsibility and declare that you own all rights or have obtained the necessary permissions for such Content.

You expressly grant Thread Reader the right, directly and indirectly, to distribute the content of Your Third-Party Roll. Thread Reader may distribute Your Content for commercial and non-commercial purposes without being liable for any payment or compensation of any kind by Thread Reader to you. Thread Reader will, in its sole discretion, decide whether or not (and how) it will distribute Your Content, choose its business partners, and determine all terms and conditions of such distribution. If you do not agree with the above, you should not use Unroller.
As we have no control over Your Content, it is your sole responsibility when posting Your Content on Thread Reader to clearly and truly identify its actual or potential nature in order to ensure its classification into the appropriate category. This is necessary for the proper functioning of the Service and to protect other users by identifying content that may be explicit or pornographic.
