Published in-app and at terms.php. Bracket values are filled at runtime from src/legal/legalEntity.ts. Have a licensed attorney review before relying on these as final legal advice.

Effective date: October 8, 2026 Last updated: October 8, 2026

1. Welcome to LGB Social

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and LGB Social ("LGB Social," "we," "us," or "our"). They govern your use of the LGB Social mobile app, the website at unitedlgb.com, and every feature, service, and piece of content we provide (together, the "Service").

LGB Social is a community and social networking platform built for gay, lesbian, and bisexual people and the people who support them. Our focus is community building: friendships, conversation, groups, creators, events, and connection.

By creating an account, downloading the app, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Community Standards. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

IMPORTANT: Section 20 contains a binding arbitration agreement and a class action waiver that affect how disputes between you and us are resolved. Please read it carefully. You may opt out as described in Section 20.6.

2. Eligibility

2.1 You must be 18 or older

The Service is for adults only. You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live, if higher) to create an account or use any part of the Service. We check your date of birth at signup and will not create an account for anyone under 18.

By using the Service, you promise that:

2.2 Minors are never permitted

If we learn or suspect that a user is under 18, we will close the account immediately, remove its content, and, where content suggests a child may be at risk, report it to the appropriate authorities (see Section 12).

2.3 Where the Service is available

We operate the Service from the United States. If you use it from another country, you are responsible for following your local laws, including laws about sexual orientation, dating, and adult content. Some features may not be available in some places, or in some versions of the app.

3. Your Account

3.1 Creating an account

To sign up, you give us your first and last name, email address, date of birth, birth sex, sexual orientation, and a password. We send a six-digit verification code to your email. Your account is created only after you enter that code, which expires after 48 hours.

You agree to:

We assign each account a unique handle. Your first name is shown to other users as part of your display name and cannot be hidden. Your last name is shown only if you choose to show it in Privacy Settings. Your email is never shown to other users. Your exact date of birth is never shown; other users may see your age unless you hide it.

3.2 Keeping your account secure

You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for everything that happens under your account. Use a strong password that you do not use anywhere else. Tell us right away at info@unitedlgb.com if you believe someone else has accessed your account.

3.3 Inactive and suspended accounts

We may mark an account inactive, suspend it, or close it as described in Section 15. You cannot log in to an inactive account.

4. Community Standards

Our Community Standards, available in the app under Menu → Standards, are part of these Terms. In summary:

If the Community Standards and these Terms conflict, these Terms control.

5. The Features of the Service

This section explains each part of LGB Social and the rules that apply to it. Some features may be limited, changed, or unavailable depending on the version of the app you use (for example, the Google Play version, the Apple App Store version, or the version downloaded from our website).

5.1 Profile

Your profile can include a display name, profile photo, bio, interests, marital status, ethnicity, location (city/region), and other optional details. In Privacy Settings you control whether other users can see your last name, marital status, age, and your distance in Browse, and whether you accept friend requests and inbox messages.

5.2 Home feed, posts, comments, reactions, and shares

5.3 Friends, follows, and blocking

5.4 Messages and audio/video calls

5.5 Groups

5.6 Pool chat rooms

5.7 Video chat rooms

5.8 Channels (creators, live streaming, and videos)

5.9 Browse

5.10 Adult Browse (18+, opt-in)

Adult Browse is an optional area for adults who want to meet other adults for dating and relationships, which may include casual encounters. It is off unless you turn it on. By turning on Adult Browse, you confirm that you are 18 or older, that you want to see adult-oriented profiles, and that you accept the following rules:

5.11 Notifications

The app shows in-app notifications when people react to, comment on, or share your posts, reply to your comments, send or accept friend requests, or when a channel you follow goes live. If push notifications are added later, we will update this section and the Privacy Policy.

5.12 My Report and clearing your data

My Report (Menu → My Report) shows how much storage each feature uses for your account and lets you clear content you have created, such as messages you sent, posts, comments, reactions, photos, groups, channel videos, notifications, and your blocked list. Clearing content is permanent and cannot be undone. Clearing content does not delete your account; see Section 15.3 for account deletion.

6. Content Rules

"Content" means anything you post, upload, send, stream, or share on the Service, including text, photos, videos, audio, live video, messages, profile details, group and channel information, and comments.

6.1 Prohibited content and conduct (everywhere on the Service)

You may not post, send, stream, or do any of the following:

  1. Anything involving minors in a sexual or exploitative way. See Section 12. This is an absolute rule with zero tolerance.
  2. Sexually explicit content, meaning depictions of sexual acts, sexual intercourse, oral sex, masturbation, or sexual arousal, anywhere on the Service, including posts, comments, groups, pool rooms, video rooms, channels, live streams, uploaded videos, messages, and calls.
  3. Nudity, except in Adult Browse private photos as allowed in Section 5.10. Nudity is never allowed in profile photos, main adult photos, posts, comments, groups, pool rooms, video rooms, channels, cover images, or live streams.
  4. Non-consensual content, including intimate images or videos of anyone shared without their consent ("revenge porn"), sextortion, hidden-camera content, deepfakes, or AI-generated sexual images of real people.
  5. Content of other people without their permission, including recordings, screenshots, or photos of others taken during calls, video rooms, or live streams.
  6. Content you do not have the right to share, including other people's videos copied from other platforms, copyrighted music, films, or photos you do not own or license.
  7. Commercial sex, solicitation, or trafficking (see Section 5.10).
  8. Hate speech, harassment, bullying, threats, or violence, including content that encourages self-harm or suicide.
  9. Doxxing, meaning sharing someone's private information, such as their address, phone number, workplace, legal name, HIV status, or sexual orientation, without consent. Outing someone is a serious violation.
  10. Illegal activity, including selling or arranging illegal drugs, weapons, or stolen goods.
  11. Fraud, scams, and impersonation, including romance scams, requests for money, phishing, fake profiles, or pretending to be another person, brand, or LGB Social staff.
  12. Spam, including repetitive posts, chain messages, mass unsolicited messages, unauthorized advertising, or links to malware.
  13. Graphic violence or gore.
  14. Partisan political campaigning or propaganda, as described in the Community Standards.
  15. Interfering with the Service, including hacking, scraping, bots, automated accounts, reverse engineering, overloading our servers, bypassing security or privacy controls, or accessing data or accounts that are not yours.

6.2 You are responsible for your content

You are solely responsible for your content and for your interactions with other users. We do not pre-screen content, but we may review, remove, or restrict any content at any time for any reason, including if we believe it violates these Terms or the law.

6.3 Content in the website version

[If you offer a version of the Service outside the app stores with different content rules, describe it in a separate Terms addendum for that version. That version must keep the 18+ requirement, age and identity verification, performer consent and record-keeping, and all legal requirements. Do not reference that version, its content, or its pricing inside the Google Play or Apple App Store versions of the app.]

8.2 License to us

So that we can run the Service, you grant LGB Social a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to host, store, copy, process, display, distribute, transmit, and adapt your content (for example, resizing or compressing it) only to operate, provide, improve, and promote the Service, and only in a way consistent with your privacy settings. This license ends when your content is deleted from the Service, except:

We will never sell your photos or videos.

You promise that you own or have all rights needed to post your content, that everyone identifiable in it is an adult who has consented, and that your content does not violate these Terms or anyone's rights.

If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake, you may send a counter-notice that meets 17 U.S.C. § 512(g). We terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

10. Reporting, Blocking, Moderation, and Enforcement

10.1 Reporting

You can report users and content that violate these Terms using the Report options in the app, or by emailing safety@unitedlgb.com. Report categories include harassment, spam, hate, impersonation, child endangerment, self-harm or suicide, criminal activity, adult content, fraud, and other. We review reports and take action as described below.

10.2 Blocking

You can block any user at any time from their profile, the inbox, Adult Browse, the adult messenger, video rooms, or notifications.

10.3 Our enforcement actions

If we believe you have violated these Terms or the law, or put others at risk, we may, at our discretion and with or without notice:

10.4 Appeals

If you believe we made a mistake, email appeals@unitedlgb.com within 30 days with your handle and an explanation. We will review it in good faith, but our decision is final. We will not reinstate accounts banned for child sexual abuse or exploitation, trafficking, or credible threats of violence.

11. Ads and Payments

The Service may show ads. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your sexual orientation, sex life, or health information for advertising.

The Service does not process payments, paid videos, subscriptions, donations, or creator payouts.

12. Child Safety Standards (Zero Tolerance for CSAE)

LGB Social has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) and child sexual abuse material (CSAM). These standards are published as required by the Google Play Child Safety Standards policy, and they apply to every part of the Service.

  1. Adults only. The Service is only for people 18 and older. Accounts belonging to anyone under 18 are removed.
  2. Prohibited: any content or conduct that sexualizes minors, including images, videos, drawings, AI-generated or animated content, text, role-play involving minors, grooming, sextortion, soliciting minors, trafficking, or sharing links to such content. This applies whether or not the content is "real."
  3. Reporting in the app: Users can report accounts and content using the in-app Report tools, including the "Child endangerment" category, or by emailing safety@unitedlgb.com.
  4. Our response: We review child safety reports as a priority. When we find apparent CSAM or CSAE, we remove the content, ban the accounts involved, preserve evidence as required by law, and report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) as required by 18 U.S.C. § 2258A, and to other law enforcement and regional authorities as appropriate.
  5. Compliance with law: We comply with all applicable child safety laws.
  6. Child safety point of contact: the LGB Social Child Safety Team, safety@unitedlgb.com, who is responsible for our CSAM prevention practices and can speak to them.

If you believe a child is in immediate danger, call 911 (in the United States) or your local emergency number. You can also report to NCMEC at CyberTipline.org or 1-800-843-5678.

13. App Store Terms

  3. Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support services for the app.
  4. If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) for the app. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app.

  9. You must comply with applicable third-party terms (for example, your wireless data service agreement) when using the app.

We may suspend or terminate your account or access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or the law, if required by law or an app store, if you have not signed in for 1 year, or if continuing to provide the Service to you is no longer commercially reasonable.

15.3 Deleting your account

You can request deletion of your account and associated data:

What is deleted and what we keep, and for how long, are explained in the Privacy Policy. We also automatically delete accounts that have not signed in for 1 year.

16. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE OR PRESERVED, OR THAT YOU WILL FIND A FRIEND, DATE, OR PARTNER.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER, OR FOR ANY CONTENT POSTED BY USERS. WE DO NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL, LEGAL, OR SAFETY ADVICE. ANY HEALTH INFORMATION USERS SHARE ABOUT THEMSELVES IS NOT VERIFIED BY US.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LGB SOCIAL AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR REPUTATION, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE, YOUR CONTENT, OTHER USERS' CONDUCT OR CONTENT, OR ANY MEETING OR INTERACTION WITH ANOTHER USER, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATED TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE, OR (B) $100.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless LGB Social and its owners, officers, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your content, your use of the Service, your interactions with other users, or your violation of these Terms or any law or third-party right.

19. Changes to the Service and to These Terms

We may add, change, or remove features at any time. We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you in the app or by email at least 14 days before they take effect, unless the change is required sooner by law or for safety. Continuing to use the Service after changes take effect means you accept them. If you do not agree, stop using the Service and delete your account.

20. Dispute Resolution, Arbitration, and Class Action Waiver

20.1 Informal resolution first

Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us at legal@unitedlgb.com and try to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

20.2 Binding arbitration

If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, you and LGB Social agree to resolve it through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except as described in 20.4. Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, and will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration may take place by video, by phone, based on written submissions, or in your county of residence.

20.3 Class action waiver

YOU AND LGB SOCIAL AGREE THAT CLAIMS MAY ONLY BE BROUGHT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

20.4 Exceptions

Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court, and either party may seek court relief to protect intellectual property or stop unauthorized access to the Service.

20.5 Costs

We will pay AAA filing, administration, and arbitrator fees for claims under $10,000 unless the arbitrator finds your claim frivolous.

20.6 Opting out

You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing legal@unitedlgb.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, with your name, handle, account email, and a clear statement that you opt out of arbitration.

20.7 Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of applicable U.S. federal law and the law of the state where LGB Social maintains its principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and we agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the United States. If you live in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country, and you may bring claims in your local courts.
