These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User") and Justice for One Justice for All ("we," "us," "our," or "the Platform"). By accessing, browsing, registering, subscribing to, or otherwise using this website and its services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

Justice for One Justice for All is an interactive computer service as defined under 47 U.S.C. § 230 of the Communications Decency Act. Under this federal law:

• Justice for One Justice for All is not the publisher or speaker of any information provided by third-party users on the Bulletin Board, Live Chat, or any other interactive feature of this platform.
• We shall not be held liable for any user-generated content posted by third parties, including but not limited to statements, opinions, claims, allegations, or any other communications made by users.
• All content posted by users on community features represents the personal opinions and statements of those individual users only and does not represent the views, positions, or editorial stance of Justice for One Justice for All.
• User-generated content is provided "as is" and constitutes hearsay, opinion, and personal expression. Justice for One Justice for All makes no representations as to the accuracy, completeness, or truthfulness of any user-submitted content.

Nothing in these Terms shall be construed to limit the protections afforded to us under Section 230 or any other applicable law providing immunity to interactive computer services.

You, as the author of any content you post, are solely and exclusively responsible for that content and its consequences. By posting content on this platform, you represent and warrant that:

• You own or have the necessary rights to post the content
• Your content does not violate any applicable law, including defamation, harassment, privacy, or intellectual property laws
• Your content does not constitute a threat, incitement to violence, or illegal activity
• You will not impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Justice for One Justice for All, its operators, editors, affiliates, and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your use of the platform or any content you submit, post, or transmit.

We reserve the right — but not the obligation — to monitor, edit, or remove any user content at our sole discretion, without notice, and for any reason. Exercise of this right does not create any liability on our part for content we do not remove.

• Investigative reports are based on information gathered from sources, documents, and public records. We make reasonable efforts to verify information but cannot guarantee absolute accuracy.

• Accountability Watch entries reflect documented allegations, public records, and reported information. They are not legal findings. All persons and entities are presumed innocent unless proven otherwise in a court of law.
• All content on this platform, including editorial content, is provided for informational and journalistic purposes only and does not constitute legal, financial, medical, or professional advice of any kind.

Individuals named in our reporting have the right to submit a written response for consideration of publication. Contact us through the Bulletin Board to submit a response.
