These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding contract between you and the GreenMeans Team concerning your access to, browsing of, and interaction with the Site and its subdomains. This includes both static resources, information directories, form submissions, and educational pipelines.

You agree that by accessing the Site, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age (or the age of legal majority in your country of residence) or possess absolute parental or legal guardian consent to interact with these systems.

02. Licensing & Intellectual Property

GreenMeans supports the open dissemination of code. Our platform design frameworks, resource templates, and subdomain index structures are made available for community inspectability and academic usage.

However, all textual copy, written articles, historical layouts, custom SVG indicators, logo trademarks, and proprietary branding components found directly on the Site are protected under international copyright, trademark, and service mark statutes. You may view and cite our articles with proper attribution, but wholesale copying, selling, or redistributing our visual assets for competitive commercial purposes without explicit permission is dryly prohibited.

03. Acceptable Use Policy

By using GreenMeans, you promise to maintain the computational integrity and security of our services. You agree that you will not:

• Launch high-frequency HTTP requests, denial-of-service (DDoS) loops, or brute-force commands designed to crash our hosting container.
• Employ scraper scripts, web harvesting bots, or bulk diagnostic programs to crawl our site without respecting robots.txt configurations.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized admin access to routing systems or tamper with client-side setting states inside local storage cache.
• Utilise contact form APIs, mail hooks, or public communication systems to transmit unsolicited advertising (spam) or malware.

04. Informational Resources (Not Professional Advice)

GreenMeans hosts a variety of educational directories, lists, comparison models, and general informational toolkits across our main page and subdomains, including Green Party policy summaries (policy.greenmeans.ovh), composting guides (compost.greenmeans.ovh), non-violent communication (NVC) frameworks (toolkit.greenmeans.ovh), native plant matches (plants.greenmeans.ovh), and a simple web search tool (search.greenmeans.ovh).

All lists, guides, directories, assessments, and environmental comparisons are provided strictly for general educational and informational purposes. They do not constitute official professional, legal, political, botanical, agricultural, or commercial consultation, nor are they certified regulatory reports or compliance statements.

Before adopting composting workflows, initiating agricultural/planting programs, or basing community policies on our resources, you must carry out independent research and speak with certified specialists.
