Terms and privacy

W3BS Social is a community service run by the W3BS initiative with no guarantee of uptime. Your posts, likes and follows are public on the AT Protocol network and get copied by relays and apps we do not control, so deleting them here does not delete those copies. We store your email address and password hash only to run your account, and we never sell or share them. Spam, harassment, illegal content and impersonation get an account taken down. Bluesky's moderation service labels content across the network. Questions or reports: hello@w3bs.org.
