The rules of the orbit.

A private beta

Orbit is in an invite-only beta. Features may change or be removed, and the service may sometimes be slow or unavailable. We try hard to keep your orbit safe, but please keep your own copies of photos that matter to you.

Your account

• You must be at least 16 years old to use Orbit.
• Use one account per person. Personal and business orbits need separate email addresses.
• Keep your password and your personal setup link to yourself. You are responsible for what happens in your account.
• Pick a username that does not pretend to be someone else or a brand you do not represent.

What you add

Your photos, portrait, ring names and links stay yours. By adding them, you give Orbit permission to store them and show them to the people you choose in your sharing settings, including in friends' views, Wander and the Ether. This permission ends when you remove the item or delete your account.

Images from Pinterest, Are.na, Cosmos and other platforms belong to the people who made them. Orbit shows them through links to the original platform and does not claim any ownership of them.

Please don't

• Upload anything you do not have the right to share, or someone else's photo without their permission.
• Post sexual content involving minors, threats, harassment, hate, or anything illegal.
• Upload nudity or graphic violence.
• Try to get into other people's accounts or data, overload Orbit, or copy it with automated tools.
• Use Orbit to send spam or sell things others did not ask for.

There is no place in Orbit for abusive people or objectionable content. If someone breaks these rules, open their card in Friends and choose “report or block”. We look at every report, usually within a day.

We may remove content or close accounts that break these rules. If we do, we will tell you why when we can.

Other platforms

Orbit reads public boards from services such as Pinterest, Are.na, Spotify and Instagram, and open collections from museums and libraries. Those services are not part of Orbit and have their own terms. If one of them changes or stops working, the matching ring may stop updating.

Orbit itself

The Orbit app, its design, name and code belong to Nicole Deschamps. You may use Orbit for your own personal or business orbit, but please don't copy or resell the app.

Leaving Orbit

You can stop using Orbit at any time and ask us to delete your account, as described in the privacy page. We may end the beta or close accounts with notice, and we will give you a chance to save your photos first when we can.

No guarantees

Orbit is provided as it is, without warranties of any kind. As far as the law allows, Nicole Deschamps is not responsible for indirect losses, lost data or lost profits from using Orbit. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have by law that cannot be limited.

Law, changes and contact

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States. If we change them in a way that matters, we will tell you in Orbit before the change takes effect. Questions go to nicole.deschamps1@gmail.com.
