Terms of Use
Updated: February 1, 2026
Introduction
Please read carefully these Terms of Use ("Terms") before using the websites, hosted services, and software ("Services") provided by Free Cattle, Inc. ("Free Cattle," "we," or "us"). Our Services include freecattle.com, Polyupload (polyupload.com), RealtimeDraw (realtimedraw.com), and related open-source software. By accessing and using our Services, you confirm your acceptance of these Terms.
Agreement
By accessing our websites or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and agree that you are responsible for compliance with any applicable local laws. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO ACCESS OR USE OUR SERVICES.
Open-Source Software
Some of our Services, including Polyupload and RealtimeDraw, are released as open-source software. You may run, modify, and distribute this software under the terms of its license. These Terms govern your use of instances operated by Free Cattle (such as polyupload.com and realtimedraw.com). If you run the software yourself or use a third-party instance, that operator's terms apply.
User Responsibilities and Eligibility
Free Cattle provides Services including hosted applications and open-source software. You, as the user, accept responsibility for the appropriate use of these Services, securing your wallet and private keys (for Polyupload), managing any encryption keys (for RealtimeDraw), and managing any credentials or access details. The complexity and security of any encryption keys you use is solely your responsibility. Any damages or costs resulting from unauthorized use, loss, or exposure of this information fall onto you. We disclaim liability for such incidents.
We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18.
Liabilities and Compliance
Free Cattle is not liable for damages or losses due to misuse of our Services. Misuse can include breaking laws, providing incorrect information, unauthorized usage, infringing third-party rights, or violating these Terms. Users are responsible for their actions and obeying applicable laws and regulations.
Content Rules
As a user of Free Cattle services, you agree not to assume the identity of another individual nor to upload content that is harmful, inflammatory, explicit, defamatory, libelous, or infringing on someone else's rights. Any violation of these guidelines could result in legal repercussions.
For Polyupload, content is stored on Arweave's decentralized storage network and indexed via blockchain. You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the right to upload any content and that it complies with applicable laws. If you upload inappropriate, abusive, or prohibited content, we may blacklist your wallet address from our front-end interface. Your data will remain on the decentralized networks, but you will not be able to access or search for it using polyupload.com.
For RealtimeDraw, drawing content is stored on our servers and is deleted when cleared by users. Unused rooms may be cleared periodically. While RealtimeDraw content is not permanent, you remain responsible for ensuring your content complies with applicable laws and does not infringe on third-party rights.
In the event of content-related complaints or infringement notices for Polyupload, complainants must contact Arweave directly regarding content stored on their network; Arweave is responsible for handling such requests according to their own policies. We may blacklist offending wallet addresses from our frontend. For RealtimeDraw, we may take appropriate action regarding content on our servers. Free Cattle cannot remove content from Arweave's network.
Ownership Rights
You certify that you possess all rights to content you upload through our Services and that such uploads do not breach third-party rights or any private agreements. You alone are liable for any legal consequences or infringements of intellectual property rights arising from content you upload.
Decentralized Services and Blockchain Transactions
Services like Polyupload interact with decentralized networks, including the Polygon blockchain and Arweave storage. By using these Services, you acknowledge and accept:
- Blockchain transactions are irreversible once confirmed
- Data stored on blockchains and Arweave is permanent and publicly accessible; encryption protects file contents, but certain metadata may remain visible.
- Free Cattle does not control and cannot modify or delete data on these networks
- Polyupload may display links to content stored on Arweave or other external networks; Free Cattle is not responsible for the content accessible through these links
- You are responsible for transaction fees (such as POL for Polygon network fees and Arweave storage costs)
- The security of your wallet and private keys is your responsibility
- Smart contract interactions carry inherent risks
RealtimeDraw does not use blockchain technology or decentralized storage.
Smart Contracts
Polyupload uses smart contracts deployed on the Polygon blockchain. These smart contracts were developed by Free Cattle but have not been professionally audited. You use these smart contracts entirely at your own risk. Free Cattle is not liable for any losses, damages, or adverse consequences arising from vulnerabilities, bugs, exploits, or any other issues in the smart contract code. By interacting with our smart contracts, you acknowledge that you understand these risks and accept full responsibility for any outcomes.
Real-Time Collaboration Services
Services like RealtimeDraw provide real-time collaboration features. By using these Services, you acknowledge and accept:
- Drawing data is transmitted to other participants in your room in real time
- Room URLs can be shared with others to grant access; anyone with the URL can join
- If you use an encryption key, you are responsible for sharing it securely with intended collaborators and for choosing a sufficiently complex key
- Unused rooms may be cleared periodically
- We do not guarantee the availability or persistence of drawing data
Payments and Fees
For services involving blockchain transactions (such as Polyupload), fees are paid directly on the relevant blockchain (e.g., Polygon) or to third-party services (e.g., Turbo for Arweave storage). Free Cattle does not process these payments—they occur directly between you and the respective networks or services. Compliance with local laws regarding cryptocurrency transactions rests solely with you.
RealtimeDraw is provided free of charge and does not involve payment processing.
Indemnification
You agree to protect Free Cattle, its affiliates, licensors, suppliers, and their respective officials, directors, and employees from any claims or losses, including legal costs, arising from your use of our Services or violation of these Terms.
Website and Software Functionality
We endeavor to ensure accuracy and reliability in our Services; however, we shall not be held responsible or liable for any malfunctions of websites, hosted services, or open-source software, nor for any resultant damages. We expressly disclaim any liability for technical inaccuracies or typographical errors.
For decentralized services, functionality also depends on third-party networks (Polygon, Arweave, etc.), which we do not control. Network congestion, outages, or changes to these networks may affect service availability.
For RealtimeDraw, functionality depends on WebSocket connections and our server infrastructure. Network issues or server maintenance may temporarily affect real-time collaboration features.
Limitation of Liability
Free Cattle does not control user-uploaded content or data stored on decentralized networks. The use of our Services is at your own risk. We disclaim any liability resulting from your use of the Services to the fullest extent permitted by law. No liability shall befall Free Cattle or its affiliates due to your use or inability to use our Services, including any losses related to blockchain transactions, wallet security, smart contract vulnerabilities, decentralized storage, or data loss in collaborative sessions.
Service Termination
Free Cattle may terminate your access to hosted Services without prior notice for any breach of these Terms. For Polyupload, we may blacklist wallet addresses from our frontend interface for violations of these Terms; your data will remain on the decentralized networks but will not be accessible through polyupload.com. Data already stored on Arweave or NFTs already minted on Polygon remain on their respective networks regardless of your relationship with Free Cattle. For RealtimeDraw, termination may result in loss of access to stored drawing data. The parties' liabilities and obligations existing before termination shall persist post-termination.
Governing Law
This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein.
