Terms of Service

The gist:

Amplafi, Inc. runs the Social Marketing service ("Service") that is accessed via a WordPress plugin and other clients.

We would love for you to use it. Our service is designed to help you market on social media sites. We wish to encourage you to express yourself freely. However, be responsible in what you spread. In particular, make sure that none of the prohibited items listed in (Responsibility of Contributors) appear in your messages or get linked to from your messages (things like spam, viruses, or hate content).

You can check our page on how to use Social Marketing to get a sense of the types of messages that are welcome on our service (or not!). If you find an Social Marketing user that you believe violates our terms of service, please email us at 'complaints (at) farreach.es'.

Detailed Terms of Service:

The following terms and conditions govern all use of all content, services and products available at or through http://FarReach.es/, distributed clients such as the WordPress plugin (taken together, the Service). The Service is owned and operated by Amplafi, Inc. ("Company"). The Service is offered subject to your acceptance without modification of all of the terms and conditions contained herein and all other operating rules, policies (including, without limitation, Amplafi, Inc.'s Privacy Policy) and procedures that may be published from time to time on our corporate site by Amplafi, Inc. (collectively, the "Agreement").

Please read this Agreement carefully before accessing or using the Service. By accessing or using any part of the Service, you agree to become bound by the terms and conditions of this agreement. If you do not agree to all the terms and conditions of this agreement, then you may not access the Service or use any services. If these terms and conditions are considered an offer by Amplafi, Inc., acceptance is expressly limited to these terms. The Service is available only to individuals who are at least 13 years old.

  1. Your Social Marketing Account and Security If you create an account on the Service, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account, and you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under the account and any other actions taken in connection with the account. You must not describe or assign keywords to your messages in a misleading or unlawful manner, including in a manner intended to trade on the name or reputation of others, and Amplafi, Inc. may change or remove any description or keyword that it considers inappropriate or unlawful, or otherwise likely to cause Amplafi, Inc. liability.

    You must immediately notify Amplafi, Inc. of any unauthorized uses of your account or any other breaches of security. Amplafi, Inc. will not be liable for any acts or omissions by You, including any damages of any kind incurred as a result of such acts or omissions.

    The Service relies on you maintaining your WordPress site's user accounts. Access to your account on the Service is exclusively through the Plugin. The Plugin will automatically synchronize any changes in the WordPress user accounts with the Service. Because the world is imperfect, this automatic synchronization can fail due to a variety of reasons. We have created a number of security measures to reduce the possibility of unauthorized use of your account, however, you are the first line of defense.

  2. Responsibility of Contributors. If you operate an account, comment on messages, post material to the Service, post links on the Service, or otherwise make (or allow any third party to make) material available by means of the Service (any such material, "Content"), You are entirely responsible for the content of, and any harm resulting from, that Content. That is the case regardless of whether the Content in question constitutes text, graphics, an audio file, or computer software. By making Content available, you represent and warrant that:

    • you have fully complied with any third-party licenses relating to the Content, and have done all things necessary to successfully pass through to end users any required terms;
    • the Content does not contain or install any viruses, worms, malware, Trojan horses or other harmful or destructive content;
