Terms of Service

Effective August 2, 2026

Welcome to forum, a political discussion app. By creating an account or using the app you agree to these terms.

1. Your account

You must provide accurate information and are responsible for activity on your account. You may use forum only if applicable law and any device, family, or App Store age restrictions permit you to do so. If the law where you live requires permission from a parent or guardian, you may use forum only with that permission. The signup screen asks you to agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. You can delete your account at any time from Settings; your account and app data are removed immediately and associated media is removed from active storage within 24 hours.

2. Your content

You own what you post. By posting you grant us a non-exclusive license to display your content inside the app (that's how a forum works). You are responsible for what you post.

3. Rules

Do not post: spam; harassment, threats, or bullying; hate speech; deliberately deceptive content presented as fact; pornographic or sexually explicit content; sexual content involving minors; illegal content; or other people's personal information. User submissions pass narrow safety rules operated by forum. If you explicitly allow OpenAI processing, text submissions also receive an additional check from OpenAI's moderation service. Without that permission, text posts, comments, direct messages, and profile edits remain available under forum's rules; image uploads and forumAI remain unavailable because those features require OpenAI processing. We may hide content, and suspend or ban accounts, that break these rules. Every piece of content has a Report action; reports are reviewed by moderators.

4. Spectrum placements

The app computes a political-lean placement for content and accounts from a deterministic, published scoring method (see the "Why this placement?" receipts on any score). Placements are estimates for discussion purposes, not statements of fact about you.

5. forumAI

forumAI answers are generated by an AI model presenting multiple political perspectives. They can be wrong. They are not professional, legal, or medical advice.

6. News content

Article headlines, publisher names, publication dates, preview images, and links are aggregated from news feeds and publisher pages and remain the property of their publishers. forum does not present copied article bodies as its own reporting. Tapping through opens the complete article at the original source.

7. Disclaimers

The service is provided "as is" without warranties. To the maximum extent permitted by law we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the app. We may modify or discontinue features, and may update these terms — continued use after an update is acceptance.
