Copyright
 
The entire content included in this site, including but not limited to text, graphics or code is copyrighted as a collective work under copyright laws, and is the property of Hacoo. The collective work includes works that are licensed to Hacoo. Permission is granted to electronically copy and print hard copy portions of this site for the sole purpose of engaging with the Hacoo community or supporting your content creation. Any other use, including but not limited to the reproduction, distribution, or displayed transmission of the content of this site is strictly prohibited unless authorized by Hacoo.

 

Limitation of Liability
 
As a platform connecting users and independent creators, Hacoo shall not be liable for any special or consequential damages that result from the use of, or the inability to use, the materials on this site or the performance of content and recommendations shared by third-party creators, even if Hacoo has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Content accuracy and authenticity are the responsibility of the individual creators.
 
 
Typographical Errors & Content Accuracy
 
While Hacoo strives to ensure that creators provide accurate lifestyle inspiration and recommendations, typographical errors or outdated information may occur. Hacoo cannot guarantee the accuracy of user-generated content. Hacoo and/or its moderation team shall have the right, at our sole discretion, to refuse, downgrade, or remove any content that violates our strict platform governance policies.
 
 
Platform Role and Creator Responsibility
 
Hacoo operates as a platform that facilitates connections and inspiration sharing among users and creators. All lifestyle content available on Hacoo is provided by these independent individuals. While Hacoo provides community protection services and oversees platform integrity through AI and manual moderation, the responsibility for content accuracy and authenticity lies with the individual creators. Hacoo reserves the right to remove accounts or content that violate our community standards or intellectual property policies.
 
 
Termination
 
These terms and conditions are applicable to you upon your accessing the site and/or completing the registration process. These terms and conditions, or any part of them, may be terminated by Hacoo without notice at any time, for any reason. Any termination of this Agreement shall not affect the respective rights and obligations (including without limitation, any accrued obligations regarding creator payouts) of the parties arising before the date of termination.
 
 
Use of site
 
Harassment in any manner or form on the site, including via e-mail, chat, or by use of obscene or abusive language, is strictly forbidden. Impersonation of others, including a Hacoo or other licensed employee, host, or representative, as well as other members or visitors on the site is prohibited. You may not upload to, distribute, or otherwise publish through the site any content which is libelous, defamatory, obscene, threatening, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, abusive, illegal, or otherwise objectionable which may constitute or encourage a criminal offense, violate the rights of any party or which may otherwise give rise to liability or violate any law. You may not upload spam, unauthorized deceptive promotional content, or use the site to solicit others to join competing services or organizations. Authorized creator monetization and affiliate sharing must comply strictly with our community guidelines.
 
 
Links
 
In an attempt to provide increased value to our visitors, Hacoo may link to sites operated by third parties. However, even if the third party is affiliated with Hacoo, Hacoo has no control over the linked sites, all of which have separate privacy and data collection practices, independent of Hacoo.
 
These linked sites are only for your convenience and therefore you access them at your own risk. Nonetheless, Hacoo seeks to protect the integrity of its web site and the links placed upon it and therefore requests any feedback on not only its own site but for sites it links to as well (including if a specific link does not work).
 
 
Force Majeure
 
Hacoo shall not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its platform services due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, war, strikes, cyberattacks, server outages, internet service provider failures, or governmental restrictions.

 

CHOICE OF LAW
 
These Terms of Service and any separate agreements whereby we provide you Services shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United Kingdom.
 
 
LANGUAGE AND CORRESPONDING TEXT
 
This agreement has been written in the English language and, in the event of any conflict, differing meanings or contradictions between the English-language version and any translation hereof, the English language version shall prevail.
 
 
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
 
We respect intellectual property rights and ask you to do the same. As a platform connecting users and independent creators, Hacoo is committed to protecting intellectual property rights within our community. As a condition of your access to and use of the Services, you agree not to use the Services to infringe on any intellectual property rights. We empower our community users with oversight rights and rely on community monitoring to identify potential infringements. We reserve the right, with or without notice, at any time and in our sole discretion to remove infringing content, block access to and/or terminate the accounts of any creator or user who infringes or is alleged to infringe any copyrights or other intellectual property rights.
 
Once infringement is discovered and verified, Hacoo will immediately remove the third-party content in question and may take action against the responsible account holder, including but not limited to account suspension or permanent removal from the platform.
 
If you, as a rights-related person, have any concerns or complaints about possible violation of intellectual property rights, please report intellectual property infringement on our page, identifying with specificity the rights alleged to be violated and the accused content or post(s).
