Terms of Use
Last updated: July 21, 2026
Agreement
By using Grandma's Front Porch — entering the family invite code, adding information, uploading a photo, or subscribing to the newsletter — you agree to these terms. This site is a private family community, run informally by family members for family and close friends, and is provided as-is with no warranty of any kind.
Access
Most of the site requires the family invite code; the admin area (the "Sanctum") requires a separate password. Both are shared at the family's discretion and can be changed or revoked at any time, for any reason, without notice.
Content you submit
- You confirm you have the right to share anything you upload, and, for photos of other people, a reasonable belief that they (or their parent/guardian, if a minor) would be comfortable with it being shared here.
- You keep ownership of what you submit. By submitting it, you give this site permission to display and use it for the community's purposes described here.
- The site administrator may edit, hide, or remove any submitted content — a tree entry, a photo, an event, anything — at their discretion, without notice.
- A family-tree detail that's already filled in can only be corrected by the administrator, on request (email admin@grandmasfrontporch.com) — not overwritten directly. Removing a person or a photo is administrator-only.
Expected conduct
Be respectful. Don't impersonate anyone, harass anyone, or upload content you don't have the right to share. The administrator may restrict access for anyone who doesn't.
No warranty, limited liability
This site is run informally, without a company or paid staff behind it. It's provided "as is," with no guarantee it will always be available, accurate, or error-free. To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site and its administrators aren't liable for content submitted by other users, or for third-party links (including the linked Facebook group, which isn't operated by this site).
Changes
These terms may be updated as the site grows; continued use after a change means you accept the update. Questions? Email admin@grandmasfrontporch.com.
