By using Shungite Forum you agree to these Terms of Service. They are short and written in plain English.
What this site is
Shungite Forum is a community discussion site about shungite, fullerenes, C60, and related research. It is operated as a non-commercial information resource. We do not sell shungite, we do not endorse vendors, and posts here are not medical or financial advice.
Your account
You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secret and for any activity under your account. Use a unique password. If you suspect unauthorised access, change your password immediately and notify us.
Accounts are personal , please do not share them. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts used for spam, abuse, or impersonation.
Your contributions
You retain ownership of anything you post. By posting, you grant Shungite Forum a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, publish, display, distribute, and prepare derivative works of your post in any medium and for any purpose, including commercial publication and inclusion in compilations such as books or other derivative works. Your name (or chosen username) will be credited where reasonable.
You confirm that anything you post is either your own work, in the public domain, or used with permission. Do not paste copyrighted text from books, journal articles, or paywalled sites in full, quote a relevant excerpt and link to the original.
Site content licence
All content on Shungite Forum is © 2026 Shungite Forum and its contributors. All rights reserved. You may read, link to, and quote brief excerpts (with attribution and a link back) for personal and editorial use. Bulk reproduction, redistribution, or use of forum content for AI training or dataset construction is not permitted without written permission.
Forum rules
- No spam, no MLM, no affiliate-link drops. Vendor recommendations belong in the Marketplace category and must be substantive (your experience, why it is good), not just a referral link.
- Be honest about what you are sharing. If you are referencing a study, link to it. If you are sharing personal experience, just say so. Both are welcome.
- No medical advice. We are not doctors. Site content does not replace medical consultation. Do not give other users specific medical advice.
- Disagreement is welcome; personal attacks are not. Argue with the post, not the person.
- English-language threads here. Non-English sources have their own subcategory under Science.
- No illegal content.
Moderation
We may remove posts that break the rules above, ban accounts that repeatedly violate, and disable comments on threads that go off the rails. Moderation is best-effort and discretionary.
Liability
The site is provided \"as is.\" We make no warranty about uptime, accuracy of user-contributed information, or fitness for any particular purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our liability for any claim arising from your use of the site is limited to the amount you have paid us (which is zero for free account holders).
Termination
You may delete your account at any time via your profile page or by writing to us. We may terminate accounts that violate these Terms with or without notice.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the country in which the site operator is established. Disputes will be resolved in the competent courts of that jurisdiction.
Changes
If these Terms change materially, we will post a notice on the front page at least 14 days before the change takes effect.
