WildWestWiki is dedicated to encouraging the growth, development and distribution of free content, and to hosting the full content of these wiki-based Projects for the public free of charge. Our role is to host the largest collaboratively edited reference Projects in the world.
However, we also act only as a hosting service, maintaining the infrastructure and framework that allows our users to contribute and edit content themselves.
Because of our unique role, there are a couple of things you should be aware of when considering our relationship to you, the Project, and the other users:
We ask that you review the terms of our Policies, so that you are aware of how we collect and use your information. Because our services are used by people all over the world.
The Content hosted by WIldWestWiki only exist because of the vibrant community of users like you who collaborate together to write, edit, and curate t content. We happily welcome your participation in this community. We encourage you to be civil and polite in your interactions with others in the community, to act in good faith, and to make edits and contributions aimed at furthering the mission of this project.
Certain activities, whether legal or illegal, may be harmful to other users and violate our rules, and some activities may also subject you to liability. Therefore, for your own protection and for that of other users, you may not engage in such activities on our sites. These activities include:
We reserve the right to exercise our enforcement discretion with respect to the above terms.
You are responsible for safeguarding your own password and should never disclose it to any third party.In the event your account is accessed without your permission, please change your password and report any tampering.
Although you have considerable freedoms for re-use of the content on the website, we ask that you please respect our trademarks. All trademarks belong to the Clairvoyant Innovations, and any use of our service marks, logos, or domain names etc must be in compliance with these Terms of Use.
To grow the commons of free knowledge and free culture, all users contributing to the Project are granting broad permissions to the general public to re-distribute and re-use their contributions freely.
In keeping with our goal of providing free information to the widest possible audience, we require that when necessary all submitted content be licensed so that it is freely reusable by anyone who cares to access it.
We want to ensure that the content that we host can be re-used by other users without fear of liability and that it is not infringing the proprietary rights of others. In fairness to our users, as well as to other creators and copyright holders, our policy is to respond to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the formalities of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Pursuant to the DMCA, we will terminate, in appropriate circumstances, users and account holders of our system and network who are repeat infringers.
However, we also recognize that not every takedown notice is valid or in good faith. In such cases, we strongly encourage users to file counter-notifications when they appropriately believe a DMCA takedown demand is invalid or improper.
If you are the owner of content that is being improperly used on WildWestWiki without your permission, you may request that the content be removed under the DMCA. To make such a request, please email us.
