1.1  Basic Account Information

You don’t have to create an account to use some of our service features, such as searching and viewing public FreeTalk24 profiles or watching a broadcast on FreeTalk24’s website. If you do choose to create an account, you must provide us with some personal data so that we can provide our services to you. On FreeTalk24 this includes a display name (for example, “FreeTalk24 Moments”), a username (for example, @FreeTalk24Moments), a password, and an email address. Your display name and username are always public, but you can use either your real name or a pseudonym. You can also create and manage multiple FreeTalk24 acounts, for example to express different parts of your identity.

1.2  Public Information

Most activity on FreeTalk24 is public, including your profile information, when you created your account, and your Postings and certain information about your Postings like the date, time, and application and version of FreeTalk24 you Posted from. You also may choose to publish your location in your Postings or your FreeTalk24 profile. The lists you create, people you follow and who follow you, and Postings you Like or RePost are also public. FreeTalk24 broadcasts you create, click on, or otherwise engage with, either on FreeTalk24 or on FreeTalk24, are public along with when you took those actions. So are your comments, the number of hearts you’ve received, which accounts you are a Superfan of, and whether you watched a broadcast live or on replay. Any hearts, comments, or other content you contribute to another account’s broadcast will remain part of that broadcast for as long as it remains on FreeTalk24. Information posted about you by other people who use our services may also be public. For example, other people may tag you in a photo (if your settings allow) or mention you in a Post.

You are responsible for your Postings and other information you provide through our services, and you should think carefully about what you make public

In addition to providing your public information to the world directly on FreeTalk24, we also use technology like application programming interfaces (APIs) and embeds to make that information available to websites, apps, and others for their use - for example, displaying Postings on a news website or analyzing what people say on FreeTalk24.
