In order to use our Services, you will need to review, agree to, and adhere to the following terms and conditions for use, including the Community Standards and Acceptable Use Policy (the “Terms”). We also encourage you to review the PostChord Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference within these Terms.
Your Data
PostChord abides by applicable privacy and data protection laws. Our Privacy Policy provides additional details about how we collect, use, treat, and protect your personal information.
You are responsible for ensuring that any information, contact data, content, or other materials you provide through the Services have been collected and provided lawfully and that you have any permissions or consent required to use such information through PostChord.
Social Accounts and Third-Party Platforms
PostChord may allow you to connect accounts or pages from third-party platforms, including social media services.
By connecting a third-party account to PostChord, you represent that you are authorized to access and use that account and authorize PostChord to perform the actions you request through the Services, subject to the permissions granted by the applicable third-party platform.
PostChord does not control third-party platforms. Features involving third-party platforms may be limited, modified, interrupted, or discontinued because of changes to their APIs, policies, permissions, availability, or other requirements.
We do not guarantee that any scheduled or requested post will be successfully published, delivered, displayed, or remain available on a third-party platform.
Your use of any third-party platform remains subject to that platform’s own terms, policies, and rules.
User Content and Promotional Materials
Users may provide event information, flyers, images, text, links, social content, contact information, and other materials through PostChord (“User Content”).
You retain ownership of your User Content.
By submitting User Content to PostChord, you grant PostChord a limited right to host, store, process, format, reproduce, distribute, and transmit that User Content as reasonably necessary to provide the Services you request.

PostChord is not responsible for the accuracy, legality, ownership, or contents of materials submitted by Users.
Fan and Audience Communications
