These terms are a legal agreement between you (the user) and BlazyPix (operated by Olga Grebenuk, referred to as “we” or “us”). Please read them carefully. If you do not agree with these terms, kindly refrain from using our website. Continued use of BlazyPix indicates acceptance of these terms.

1. Use of the Website

BlazyPix is intended for your personal, non-commercial enjoyment and information. We grant you a limited license to access and use the Site for personal purposes. In doing so, you agree to the following:

  • Personal, Non-Commercial Use: Use the content for your own enjoyment and information. You may not copy, reproduce, or distribute any text, images, or other content from BlazyPix for commercial purposes without prior written permission. For example, you cannot take my blog posts and publish them in a magazine or on your own site for profit. Sharing on personal social media with proper credit/link is fine (and appreciated!).

  • No Unauthorized Modification: You will not modify, translate, adapt, or reverse-engineer any part of the Site. This basically means please don’t try to hack the site, break into the code, or create derivative works based on my content without permission.

  • Lawful Use: You promise to use BlazyPix only for lawful purposes. You will not engage in any activity that could harm the site, its security, or other users. This includes not attempting to introduce viruses or malicious code, not attempting to gain unauthorized access to any part of the site or server, and not using the site in a way that violates any laws or regulations. In short, be a good internet citizen when using BlazyPix.

  • No Abuse or Harassment: If commenting or contacting via the site, you will not post or transmit any hateful, defamatory, obscene, harassing, or threatening content. We foster a friendly environment and reserve the right to remove any user content (like comments) that we find inappropriate (see Section 3 on User Content).

2. Intellectual Property Rights

Unless otherwise noted, BlazyPix (Olga Grebenuk) owns the intellectual property rights to all content on the site, including text, graphics, logos, photos, and other material produced for BlazyPix. All these are protected by copyright and other applicable intellectual property laws.

  • You are welcome to read, share, and enjoy the content, but do not steal or infringe on these rights. You may not use our content (like copying entire articles or photos) without explicit permission. As stated in the FAQ, you may share a snippet or a single image with credit and a link back. For any other use, please contact us first.

  • The BlazyPix name and logo (once a logo is established) are trademarks that cannot be used by others in a way that confuses people (no pretending to be BlazyPix or implying endorsement) without permission.

  • If you believe that any content on BlazyPix infringes your copyright or intellectual property, please notify us with the details (see Contact Information below for where to send such notices). We respect others’ IP and will address valid takedown requests (per the DMCA or applicable law).

3. User Content and Comments

BlazyPix may in the future allow users to post comments or contribute content (like comments on blog posts, or replies). Currently, any user interaction is likely via comments or email. By submitting any content on BlazyPix (e.g., a comment on a blog post), you agree to the following:

  • Rights Granted to Us: You retain ownership of your content, but you grant BlazyPix a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, and display your content in connection with running the site. For instance, if you leave a comment, we have the right to display it on the site indefinitely. This license extends to any trust we have to moderate or showcase user interactions (for example, featuring a great reader question in a future post).

  • Legality and Respect: You confirm that you have the rights to what you post and that it doesn’t violate any laws or anyone else’s rights. Don’t post someone else’s copyrighted material or personal info without permission. Also, you agree not to post content that is defamatory, obscene, offensive, or illegal. We aim to keep the community space welcoming.

  • Moderation: We reserve the right to edit or remove any user content at our discretion. For example, if a comment is spammy, abusive, or off-topic, it may be deleted. We may also disable commenting on certain posts if needed. We are not obligated to host or keep any specific user content and assume no liability for user postings.

  • No Endorsement: User-generated content (like comments) does not reflect our views. We cannot guarantee the accuracy or reliability of information posted by users. As a reader, please take other users’ comments with a grain of salt; they’re opinions of those individuals, not professional advice from us.

4. External Links

BlazyPix often contains links to third-party websites or resources for your convenience (like linking to a product’s page, a reference article, or social media). These external sites are beyond our control, and we are not responsible for the content, services, or information they provide. Clicking an external link means you’ll be subject to that third party’s terms and policies.

  • We do not warrant or endorse the offerings of any third-party entities/individuals or their websites. For example, if we link to an online boutique or a YouTube tutorial, it’s up to you to evaluate if their content or products are good or safe.

  • BlazyPix is not liable for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of third-party websites. That includes if you follow a link and something goes wrong (like their site infects you with a virus or you suffer a loss from a purchase). Any complaints or claims related to a third-party site should be directed to that third party.

  • That said, we aim to link to reputable, relevant sources. If you ever find a broken or concerning link on our site, feel free to let us know.

6. Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances shall BlazyPix (Olga Grebenuk) be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your access to, or use of, the site. You expressly agree that you use this site at your own risk.

This includes, without limitation, any damages to your computer equipment, device, or other property resulting from access to or use of the site (for example, from viruses), or any loss of data or profits that may occur from use of our site or any content posted. Even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages, the limitation remains in effect. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so parts of this may not apply to you. In such states, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless BlazyPix (and Olga Grebenuk) from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that arise from: (a) your use of the site; (b) your violation of these Terms of Use; or (c) any content you post or actions you take through the site. For example, if you post something in comments that infringes someone’s rights and they sue, or if you misuse the site in a way that causes harm or legal issues, you agree that we won’t be the ones footing the bill for that – you will cover us. This provision stays in effect even if you stop using the site.

8. Modifications to the Site and Terms

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the BlazyPix site at any time, with or without notice. We also reserve the right to update or change these Terms of Use at any time. If we do so, we will update the “Last updated” date at the end of this document. It’s your responsibility to check back periodically for changes. By continuing to use the site after changes are posted, you accept and agree to those changes.

By using this site, you agree that any disputes arising out of or relating to the use of BlazyPix shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts located in [Your County], California. (If you are accessing the site from another country, be aware that you are responsible for compliance with local laws, but these terms and any disputes will still be governed by U.S. law as stated.)

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be deemed severable from the Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
