The Website is controlled and offered by My-Face-Place from its facilities
in the United States of America. My-Face-Place makes no representations that

competent to enter into the terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations,

specific or general, in jurisdictions other than California. These Terms of
Service shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of

constitute the entire agreement between you and My-Face-Place concerning the

invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such
provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these
Terms of Service, which shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of
any term of this these Terms of Service shall be deemed a further or
continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and My-Face-Place's
failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms of Service shall

We Review Videos Flagged As Inappropriate
Okay, this one
is more about us than you. When a video gets flagged as inappropriate, we
review the video to determine whether it violates our Terms of Use—flagged
videos are not automatically taken down by the system. If we remove your
video after reviewing it, you can assume that we removed it purposefully,
and you should take our warning notification seriously. Take a deep breath,
read our
Terms of Use
and try to see it from our perspective. If you find other videos on
My-Face-Place with the same violations, please flag them so we can review
them as well!
Don't Cross the Line
Here are some common-sense rules that will help you steer clear of trouble:
-
My-Face-Place
is not for pornography or sexually explicit content. If this describes
your video, even if it's a video of yourself, don't post it on
My-Face-Place. Also, be advised that we work closely with law enforcement
and we report child exploitation. Please read our
Safety Tips
and stay safe on My-Face-Place.
-
Don't post
videos showing bad stuff like animal abuse, drug abuse, or bomb making.
-
Graphic or
gratuitous violence is not allowed. If your video shows someone getting
hurt, attacked, or humiliated, don't post it.
-
My-Face-Place
is not a shock site. Don't post gross-out videos of accidents, dead bodies
and similar things.
-
Respect
copyright. Only upload videos that you made or that you are authorized to
use. This means don't upload videos you didn't make, or use content in
your videos that someone else owns the copyright to, such as music tracks,
snippets of copyrighted programs, or videos made by other users, without
necessary authorizations. Read our Copyright Tips for more information.
-
We encourage
free speech and defend everyone's right to express unpopular points of
view. But we don't permit hate speech (speech which attacks or demeans a
group based on race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age,
veteran status, and sexual orientation/gender identity).
-
There is zero
tolerance for predatory behavior, stalking, threats, harassment, invading
privacy, or the revealing of other members' personal information. Anyone
caught doing these things may be permanently banned from My-Face-Place.
-
Everyone
hates spam. Do not create misleading descriptions, tags, titles or
thumbnails in order to increase views. It's not okay to post large amounts
of untargeted, unwanted or repetitive content, including comments and
private messages.
Please take these rules seriously and take them to heart. Don't try to look
for loopholes or try to lawyer your way around them—just understand them and
try to respect the spirit in which they were created. Violations of the
Terms of Use may result in a warning notification or termination of your
account. If your account is terminated you are prohibited from
creating any new accounts.
My-Face-Place is for the Community
Remember that this is your community! Each and every user of My-Face-Place
makes the site what it is, so don't be afraid to dig in and get involved!
-
Have fun with
the site.
There's a lot here to see, and lots of folks making amazing stuff—one of
them might be you! Equipment's getting cheaper and easier to use all the
time, so dive in and enjoy.
-
Let folks
know what you think.
Feedback's part of the experience, and when done with respect, can be a
great way to make friends, share stories, and make your time on
My-Face-Place richer. So leave comments, rate videos, make your own
responses to videos that affect you, enter contests of interest—there's a
lot going on and a lot of ways to participate here.
-
You may not
like everything you see.
Some of the content here may offend you—if you find that it violates our
Terms of Use, then click "Flag as Inappropriate" under the video you're
watching to submit it for review by My-Face-Place staff. If it doesn't,
then consider just clicking on something else—why waste time watching
videos you don't like?

Third-party
Advertisers, Links to Other Sites
My-Face-Place allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad
networks, to serve advertisements within the My-Face-Place Sites. These
third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to
your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on the My-Face-Place
Sites. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They
may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or Web
Beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to
personalize the advertising content you see.
My-Face-Place does not provide any personally identifiable information to
these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent or except
as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability
to opt-in or opt-out. However, please note that if an advertiser asks
My-Face-Place to show an advertisement to a certain audience (for example,
men ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, men ages 18-24 who have
viewed certain channels of content) and you respond to that advertisement,
the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the
audience they are trying to reach. The advertiser may also use information
regarding your use of the My-Face-Place Sites, such as the number of times
you viewed an ad (but not any personally identifiable information), to
determine which ads to deliver to you.
You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad
servers or ad networks (see links below) for more information on their
practices and for instructions on how to opt-out of certain practices.
My-Face-Place's privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the
activities of, such other advertisers or web sites. Any data obtained by
third-party ad servers subsequently shared with My-Face-Place is maintained
and dealt with by My-Face-Place in accordance with this privacy policy.
Currently, My-Face-Place has relationships with the following third-party ad
servers or ad networks:
