Any translation of this **Terms of Services** is a community effort to make the information accessible in other languages and should be taken as such, with no other value than merely informative.
<br>

# Terms of Services
<a name="users"></a>
<br>
## 1. Who can use our services?
Any person who is at least 16 years of age can use the Services.
<br>
<a name="space"></a>
<br>
## 2. Space limits on disk
**Resources are scarce**. Have in mind that keeping unnecessary files and emails might limit server space, which can lead to less accounts served to others.<br>**Don't litter!**
<br>
<a name="expiration"></a>
<br>
## 3. Account expiration
For safety reasons, **Disroot.org** does not expire unused accounts. This might be a subject to change if we are forced to save up disk space for other users. Such changes in our terms will be announced via all communication channels well in advance.<br>We would rather appreciate people taking responsibility for their account and its impact on **Disroot** resources, and rather [**delete their account**](https://user.disroot.org) when they decide not to use our services any longer, or purge unused files.
<br>
<a name="password"></a>
<br>
## 4. Password
We never keep track of anybody who requests the activation of a **Disroot** account. When creating your account, you may either choose security questions and/or adding a secondary email, both of which will allow you to recover your password in case you lose/forget it.<br>
- If you don't set a secondary email or forget the question or the answers to the questions, we won't be able to re-send you the data to access your account again. Remember as well to periodically change your password: you can do it by login into the [User Self-Service](https://user.disroot.org) and clicking the 'Change password' button.<br>
**! WARNING !** Lost passwords will lead to un-recoverable cloud file loss. To protect yourself from it, you can enable password recovery feature in your personal Cloud settings.

<a name="spam"></a>
<br>
## 5. SPAM and Viruses
To avoid having our servers included in blacklists:
- We do not allow the use of Disroot email accounts to send spam. Any account caught doing so will be disabled without further notice.
- If you happen to receive great amount of SPAM or any suspicious emails please let us know at support@disroot.org so we can investigate it further.

<br>
## 6. Copyright material
One of the main aims of **Disroot** is to promote Free Libre and Open Source software and all kind of copyleft content. Embrace it and support artists and projects that release their work under those licences.
- Uploading and (most of all) publicly sharing copyrighted material on **Disroot** could put other users and **Disroot.org** in serious legal troubles as well as endanger the whole project and the existence of our servers (and all services connected to it) so **just don't do it**.
