19. Introduction and Acceptance of Terms
    Welcome to FriendsFort, a social media platform operated by FriendsFort, Inc.
    (“FriendsFort,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). FriendsFort enables people around the world
    to connect, communicate, and share experiences through posts, videos, audio,
    photographs, messaging, live streams, groups, events, and other interactive
    features.
    These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement
    between you (“User,” “you,” or “your”) and FriendsFort, Inc. governing your access
    to and use of the FriendsFort platform, including all websites, mobile applications,
    APIs, and related services (collectively, the “Platform”).
    By creating a FriendsFort account, accessing the Platform, or otherwise
    using any part of FriendsFort’s services, you acknowledge that you have
    read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms in their
    entirety. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the
    Platform.
    These Terms apply to all users of the Platform, including but not limited to:
    registered members, casual visitors, business account holders, creator accounts,
    and third-party developers accessing FriendsFort via API.
    These Terms should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which describes how
    we collect, use, and protect your personal information, and any supplemental
    policies referenced herein (including the Advertising Policy, Creator Terms, and
    Developer Agreement). In the event of any conflict between these Terms and a
    supplemental policy, the supplemental policy shall govern with respect to the
    specific subject matter it addresses.
20. Eligibility and Account Registration
    2.1 Age Requirements
    FriendsFort is intended for users who are at least 13 years of age. Users in the
    European Union or European Economic Area (“EU/EEA”) must be at least 16 years
    of age to use the Platform, in compliance with the General Data Protection
    Regulation (GDPR). Users between the ages of 13 and 17 (or the applicable age of
    digital consent in their jurisdiction) must obtain verifiable parental or legal
    guardian consent prior to creating an account or using the Platform.
    FriendsFort reserves the right to require age verification at any time and to
    terminate or restrict access to any account that FriendsFort reasonably believes is
    held by an individual who does not meet the applicable minimum age requirement.
    Provision of false age information is a material breach of these Terms.
    2.2 Account Creation
    To access the full features of FriendsFort, you must register for an account. By
    registering, you agree to:
    ● Provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration
    process and keep such information up to date at all times;
    ● Maintain only one personal account. Duplicate accounts, fake accounts, and
    accounts created to circumvent prior enforcement actions are strictly
    prohibited;
    ● Maintain the confidentiality and security of your login credentials, including
    your password. You are solely responsible for all activity that occurs under
    your account;
    ● Notify FriendsFort immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or

    ● Not share your account credentials with any other person or allow any third
    party to access your account.
    FriendsFort cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your
    failure to comply with the above account security obligations. Business accounts,
    brand accounts, and creator accounts may be subject to additional terms and

    Critical — Music and Audio Copyright
    Violations of music and audio copyright rules are among the most common

    reasons for content removal and account strikes on FriendsFort. Read this
    Users must NOT upload any content containing:
    ● Copyrighted songs or sound recordings without a valid synchronization and
    master use license;
    ● Background music from commercially released albums, streaming services,
    radio, or broadcast media;
    ● Remixes, covers, or mashups of copyrighted songs, unless the user holds the
    appropriate mechanical and synchronization licenses;
    ● Audio samples lifted from commercial recordings;
    ● Voiceovers reading copyrighted scripts, books, published articles, or other
    protected literary works;
    ● Any other copyrighted audio material for which the user does not hold a
    valid license.
    FriendsFort uses automated Content ID technology to scan uploaded content
    for unlicensed music and audio. Upon detection of unlicensed audio, FriendsFort
    may, at its discretion: (a) mute the audio track; (b) remove the content entirely; or
    (c) redirect any monetization associated with the content to the rights holder.
    Users will be notified of any such action.
    FriendsFort Licensed Music Library: FriendsFort provides a royalty-free music
    library that all users may access and use freely within the Platform. Use of
    unlicensed music or audio outside of this library is a violation of these Terms and
    will result in enforcement action.
    5.4 Video and Film Rules
    ⚠
    Critical — Video and Film Copyright
    Posting unlicensed video content — including clips from films, TV shows,
    sports events, or music videos — constitutes copyright infringement and may
    result in content removal, DMCA strikes, and account termination.
    Users must NOT upload any of the following:
    ● Full or partial episodes of television shows, films, movies, or streaming
    content;
    ● Sports broadcasts, live events, or pay-per-view content;
    ● Music videos from commercial artists without the express authorization of
    the record label or artist;
    ● Content recorded in movie theaters (i.e., “cam recordings”);
    ● News broadcast clips exceeding 15 seconds without substantial
    transformative commentary that qualifies as fair use;
    ● Video game stream content that violates the applicable game developer’s
    streaming or content creator policy.
    Reaction Videos: Reaction videos may incorporate brief clips from third-party
    works only where such use constitutes genuine commentary, criticism, or
    educational use (fair use principles apply). The original work must be substantially
    transformed. Merely watching and reacting to another’s content without
    meaningful transformation does not qualify as fair use.
    Live Streams: Users broadcasting live content are solely responsible for ensuring
    that any music, media, or third-party content appearing or playing during the live
    stream is properly licensed or royalty-free. FriendsFort may terminate a live
    stream in real time if unlicensed content is detected.
    5.5 DMCA — Digital Millennium Copyright Act Compliance
    FriendsFort complies fully with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §
    512) and maintains safe harbor protections by promptly responding to valid
    takedown notices.
    How to File a DMCA Takedown Notice: Copyright owners who believe their
    work has been infringed on FriendsFort may submit a written notice to
    FriendsFort’s Designated Copyright Agent. To be valid, the notice must include:
    ● (a) A description of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
    ● (b) Identification of the infringing content and its URL or location on
    FriendsFort;
    ● (c) Your contact information, including name, address, telephone number,
    and email address;
    ● (d) A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use is not
    authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or applicable law;
    ● (e) A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the
    notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act
    on the owner’s behalf;
    ● (f) Your physical or electronic signature.
    DMCA Designated Agent Contact
    Email: copyright@friendsfort.com | Subject Line: DMCA Takedown Notice

    misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to the Designated Agent.
    Counter-notices must comply with the requirements of 17 U.S.C. § 512(g).
    FriendsFort will restore the content within 10–14 business days unless the
    claimant notifies FriendsFort of legal action against you.
    ⚠
    Three-Strike DMCA Policy — Permanent Account Termination
    Users who receive three (3) or more valid DMCA takedown notices will
    have their accounts permanently and irrevocably terminated. There are no
    exceptions to this policy. FriendsFort is required by law to implement and
    enforce a repeat infringer policy to maintain DMCA safe harbor protections.
    5.6 Trademarks
    Users may not use FriendsFort’s name, logo, brand marks, or any confusingly
    similar designation in any manner that implies endorsement, official partnership,
    or affiliation with FriendsFort without prior written consent from FriendsFort, Inc.
    Users also may not post content that infringes upon any other party’s registered
    trademark or service mark.

27. Advertising and Commercial Content
    9.1 FriendsFort Advertising
    FriendsFort may display advertisements and promotional content on the Platform
    based on user interests, demographics, and activity. Users may not interfere with,
    block, or misrepresent paid advertising content displayed on the Platform. All

    Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

    partnerships must be clearly and conspicuously disclosed using the labels #Ad,

Sponsored, or #Paid, in accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission

(FTC) Endorsement Guidelines (16 CFR Part 255). Failure to disclose material

    improvements, or formatting updates — may be made without advance notice. The
    “Effective Date” and “Version” displayed at the top of this document will reflect the
    most current version at all times.

    the new effective date.

or for legitimate safety and legal compliance purposes, as described in the
