4. By reading and posting on JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com, you understand that all stories, images and links contained within the stories are the sole responsibility of the person (author) who posted it. JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com is not responsible for anything an author may upload. All content uploaded by the author does not necessarily express the views of JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com.
You understand that by using this site, you may be exposed to material that is offensive, indecent or objectionable to you. No one can be responsible for a reader's interpretation or feelings about certain issues. Warnings are placed. If something is offensive to you, it is your responsibility to "change the channel."

Liability:Under no circumstances will JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com be liable in any way for loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any material that has been uploaded, posted, transmitted or otherwise made available by our service.
5. All fanfiction, original stories and poetry are copyrighted by the author, therefore JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com cannot claim ownership or responsbility for them. Because a story is the property of the author and not of this site, an author may choose to include links to images or other sites that are not hosted here. JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com is not responsible for content found on other sites.
Because a story is the sole property of the author, the author has the right to delete a story if he/she so wishes without any retribution from JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com.
6. JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com does not condone plagiarism in any form. By using this site and posting a story, you are stating that the story is wholly yours and is not plagiarized and/or a paraphrased copy of a story created by another author, whether or not the original story is published on this site.
7. Reviewers who use obscene language or harrass authors by flaming or sending abusive e-mails will be banned posthaste (will not be allowed access by my host). No second chances for this one. Furthermore, if you choose to maliciously rate a story low in order to bring the rating of a story down, your rating WILL BE set to the default(NO VOTE) by the Site Admin and will no longer be counted toward the average. Do it a second time and your IP address will be banned.
Please note: IP addresses are logged for all reviews, even anonymous ones. In order to be COPPA compliant, we cannot collect information from minors and this includes IP addresses. By leaving a review, you are stating that you are of the age of majority in your state or country.
8. If you notice an error (or errors) in a validated author's story or a story that has been validated by an administrator, the correct procedure to follow is to inform the author via e-mail (click on "Contact" on the author's user profile page). It is rude to leave it in a review. E-mailing the author shows respect and that is what the "Contact" link is for.
9. JeanJohnsonFanFiction.com provides membership as a privilege. The Site Admin reserves the right to deny membership to anyone who abuses the privilege. Abuse includes, but is not inclusive to, not obeying the Terms of Use, using the contact form to harrass authors, and spamming the review or comment areas (leaving multiple and unnecessary reviews and/or comments).
