1. Scope and provider

These terms apply to the use of Anbloq and to all paid subscriptions. The provider is the operator named in the imprint. How we process personal data is described in the privacy policy.

2. Services

Reading, posting, commenting, and the archive are free. There are also paid monthly subscriptions, described on the Premium page:

• Anbloq Badge: €4 per month including VAT.
• Anbloq Premium: €12 per month including VAT.

A subscription gives no advantage in ranking, visibility, or moderation. There is no right to uninterrupted availability; we aim for stable operation.

3. Account

• You must be at least 16 years old. The +18 forum and blogs marked NSFW are for adults only.
• Provide an email address where you can be reached and keep your login details secret.
• A real name is not required. You must not impersonate another person.
• You can delete your account at any time in your settings.

4. Your content

You keep the rights to your content. You grant the provider a non-exclusive, worldwide, free right to store, display, search, and permanently keep your public content in the Anbloq archive. This right continues in anonymised form after you delete your account, unless you delete the content as well.

You are responsible for your content and make sure you hold the necessary rights to it.

5. What is not allowed

Anbloq does not moderate opinions. Not allowed is content that is illegal under the law of your country or under the law that applies to Anbloq (Germany and the EU), as well as:

• doxxing, meaning publishing other people's private data,
• spam and automated bot abuse,
• malware and links to malicious software,
• direct threats and calls for real-world violence,
• actions that endanger the operation or security of the platform.

Adult content is only allowed in the +18 forum or when marked NSFW.

6. Reports and moderation

• Anyone can report blogs and comments, even without an account. We confirm receipt by email and tell you the decision.
• People review reports. New content is also checked automatically for typical spam patterns.
• Possible measures are removing content (a placeholder with the reason stays visible), marking it NSFW, and suspending an account temporarily or permanently.
• If we take a measure, you receive a statement of reasons by email. You can contest it by replying or writing to the address in the imprint; we will then review the decision again.
• You can also turn to a certified out-of-court dispute settlement body (Art. 21 DSA) or a court.

7. Subscriptions, payment, and cancellation

• Subscriptions are billed monthly in advance through Stripe and renew automatically for another month.
• The contract is concluded when you complete payment with Stripe.
• You can cancel at any time with effect from the end of the paid month, using the “Cancel subscription” button in your settings or in the billing portal. Features stay active until then.
• We announce price changes at least six weeks in advance. You can cancel until they take effect.

8. Right of withdrawal

Consumers have a right of withdrawal as follows:

Right of withdrawal

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the day the contract is concluded.

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (Tarik Marton, c/o Impressumservice Dein-Impressum, Stettiner Str. 41, 35410 Hungen, Germany; E-Mail: tamaritter.38@gmail.com) of your decision to withdraw from this contract by an unequivocal statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or an email). You may use the model withdrawal form below, but it is not obligatory.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse all payments received from you without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

If you requested to begin the performance of services during the withdrawal period, you shall pay us an amount which is in proportion to what has been provided until you have communicated to us your withdrawal from this contract, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.
