Terms of Service | Bellingham Today

By using this site you agree to the following, in plain English:

Your content

You're responsible for what you publish. You keep ownership of it, and you grant this site a license to display and distribute it. Don't post content you don't have rights to, and don't post anything unlawful, defamatory, or harassing.

Moderation

Editors may review, hold, remove, or restore any content, and may suspend accounts, at their discretion — particularly for violations of the contributor guidelines. The trust system, review queue, and comment moderation exist to keep the site useful and honest.

Satire and opinion

Some content on this site is satire or opinion and is labeled accordingly (look at the tags and categories). Satirical stories are not statements of fact.

No warranty

The site is provided as-is. Contributor content reflects its authors, not the site. We aim for accuracy through the trust system but can't guarantee every word of community-written content.

Changes

These terms may be updated as the site grows; continued use means acceptance of the current version.
