"KINKYSPACE.COM" Terms of Service.
A. We’d like to help you get your pictures and profile online to share them
and to help you express yourself to the world. The Terms of Service which
follow establish the mutual relationship between us:
Either of us can break our tie at any time (though some obligations will go
on after this Agreement terminates), but the Agreement that follows establishes
the legal rights and responsibilities we will have in respect to each other
while our relationship continues and afterwards.
What follows is a contract, and so you should read each of its provisions
carefully so that you understand them. In order to post here, you have to enter
into the following "Terms of Service" Agreement.
By clicking the button below that says, "Yes! I accept the Terms of Service
and enter into this Agreement" and by uploading your picture and profile, you
enter into the Agreement. You can’t change the Terms of Service or alter them
in any way or only agree to some of the provisions.
If you don’t want to agree to the Terms of Service, you should use your
browser "back" button or exit from this site by clicking this link here and proceed out of this website.
B. You can’t sneak in under the curtain to get onto our stage!

including, but not limited to using any of its Services, is limited to persons
who have read and who have accepted the Agreement which follows (and only to
persons legally competent to enter into contracts). Permission for access is
denied to all other persons by its owners and operators. Unauthorized access to
any of "KINKYSPACE.COM"’s Services amounts to the crime of computer trespass or
computer intrusion under the laws of one or more jurisdictions. And so, if you are under the age of 18, you may not
use the services of "KINKYSPACE.COM", and if you proceed to click and accept,
you do as a trespasser, subject to criminal penalty.
