Terms of Service

Using Art Maps

Use it to find and enjoy public art. Do not scrape it, resell it, or use it to harass anybody. We can close an account that does.

What you contribute

When you submit an artwork or a photograph, you confirm the photograph is yours to share and you give us permission to show it on Art Maps. You keep ownership of it. We may edit titles, descriptions, and locations for accuracy, and we may decline a submission.

Comments, messages, and photographs

Art Maps has no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive users. That includes harassment, threats, hate speech, sexual content, spam, and anything posted to target a person. A person’s first comment is held for review before it appears.

In the app, you can report a comment, a message, a postcard, an artwork, or an account. You can also block an account, after which each of you stops seeing the other. We review every report, remove content that breaks these terms, and close the accounts that post it.

Going outside

Art Maps points you at things in the physical world. Watch for traffic, respect private property, and use your judgement about where and when to go. Getting to the art is your responsibility.

Changes

If these terms change in a way that matters, we will say so on the site rather than quietly editing this page.
