Terms of Service
Last updated: March 2025
Acceptance of terms
By creating an account or using Campus, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use Campus. These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
Who can use Campus
Campus is for currently enrolled university students. To sign up you must:
  • Have a valid university email address at a supported institution
  • Be at least 18 years old
  • Verify your email via the one-time code we send
  • Be a genuine student — impersonation or false affiliation is grounds for immediate removal
Your account
You are responsible for keeping your password secure and for all activity under your account. You may not share your account with anyone else. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately at WinterA9@cardiff.ac.uk.
What you can and can't do
You may use Campus to connect with other students, share posts, and engage with university communities.

You must not:
  • Post content that is illegal, harassing, threatening, defamatory, or hateful
  • Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation
  • Post spam, advertising, or unsolicited commercial messages
  • Attempt to access, scrape, or interfere with Campus systems or other users' data
  • Use Campus for any commercial purpose without our written permission
  • Share another person's private information without their consent
  • Post content that infringes any third party's intellectual property rights
We reserve the right to remove any content and suspend or terminate any account that violates these terms, at our sole discretion.
Your content
You own the content you post on Campus. By posting, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, display, and distribute that content as necessary to operate the platform.
You also grant us the right to use anonymised, aggregated content and usage data derived from the platform — for example, to understand trends, improve features, or inform product decisions. We will not attribute this data to you personally.
We do not claim ownership of your content and will not sell it to third parties.
The Golden Rule
Any verified student can follow any university's board. Only students at that university may post to it. This is a core rule of Campus — circumventing it (for example, by using a fake or borrowed university email) is grounds for permanent removal.
Availability
We aim to keep Campus available at all times but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access. We may take the service offline for maintenance, updates, or reasons beyond our control. We are not liable for any loss resulting from downtime.
Changes to Campus
We may add, change, or remove features at any time. We may also update these terms — we will notify you of significant changes via the platform. Continued use after an update means you accept the new terms.
Disclaimer and limitation of liability
Campus is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not responsible for content posted by users. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Campus shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the platform.
Termination
You may delete your account at any time by contacting us. We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these terms. Upon termination, your right to use Campus ceases immediately.
