Legal

Terms of Service

The rules of the road. Please read them. These terms govern your use of FetCompass. By using this site you agree to them. We've written them to be clear and honest rather than deliberately impenetrable, but they are legally binding.

What FetCompass is

FetCompass is a curated event discovery directory for the kink and BDSM community. We research, compile, and publish listings for events including parties, munches, education nights, workshops, conventions, and related gatherings, along with profiles for the organizers, educators, performers, vendors, and venues that make up the community. The site is intended for adults and contains content of an adult nature.

FetCompass is operated from British Columbia, Canada. These terms are governed by the laws of Canada and the province of British Columbia.

Age Requirement

You must be of legal adult age in your jurisdiction to use this site. By continuing to use FetCompass you confirm that you meet this requirement. If you do not, please leave now.

What we provide and what we don't

FetCompass provides information about events and the people and places involved in running them. We do not organise, host, or operate the events listed on this site. We are not responsible for what happens at any event, how events are run, or any actions taken by event organisers, venues, attendees, educators, performers, or vendors.

We make reasonable efforts to keep listings accurate and up to date, but we cannot guarantee that every detail is correct at the time you read it. Event details change. Always verify the specifics directly with the organiser before attending.

Attending any event listed on FetCompass is entirely at your own risk. FetCompass accepts no liability for any loss, injury, harm, or disappointment arising from your attendance at or interaction with any listed event.

For profile holders

Profile holders are anyone with a presence on FetCompass, including event organizers, educators, performers, vendors, and venues. Profiles may be created by us based on publicly available information before you are aware the site exists. When we create a profile we will make reasonable efforts to reach out and let you know.

You can claim your profile at any time. Claiming your profile gives you the ability to manage your information, add images, and keep your details current. You can also request that your profile be removed entirely and we will do so promptly with no questions asked.

We may edit the descriptions and content associated with your profile or your events before publishing. We do this to maintain editorial consistency and remove unverifiable or promotional content. We do not alter factual details like dates, times, locations, or pricing. If you feel an edit has misrepresented you or your work, contact us and we will work through it with you.

By claiming a profile or submitting information to FetCompass, you confirm that you have the right to do so and that the information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge. You are solely responsible for your events, your products or services, and your conduct toward attendees and customers. A FetCompass profile or listing does not constitute endorsement, verification, or approval by us.

Advertising

FetCompass offers advertising placements to businesses and creators serving the kink and BDSM community. Advertisers are subject to editorial review — we reserve the right to decline or remove any advertising that conflicts with our community standards or editorial integrity.

Advertising on FetCompass does not influence the content, ordering, or inclusion of event listings. Paid placements are clearly distinguished from organic content.

By advertising on FetCompass you agree to provide accurate information about your business and products, and confirm that your offerings are legal in the jurisdictions where you operate. Full advertising terms will be provided at the time of engagement.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, FetCompass and its operators will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of this site or from any event listed on it.
