This page covers third-party material distributed as part of the Service or loaded by your browser when you use it. It does not cover content uploaded by users, which is governed by the Terms of Service and the Copyright policy.

Nothing here grants you rights in our own name, logo or interface. It records the rights we received from others and the conditions attached to them.

The interface icons come from Font Awesome Free and Feather. The reaction artwork is not covered by this page - see below.

Font Awesome Free’s icons are licensed CC-BY-4.0, which permits commercial use and modification on the condition that credit is given. That credit is given here, and the licence is available in full at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/.

The six reaction images are supplied by the operator of this Service and are not licensed to us by a third party we can name here.

Before this Service is made available to the public, the operator must confirm they hold the rights to distribute these images, or replace them with artwork under a licence that permits redistribution. Publishing artwork without that right is exactly the kind of claim the Copyright policy on this site exists to handle - and it would be our own.

Freely licensed alternatives with a similar appearance exist, including Microsoft Fluent Emoji (MIT) and Twemoji (CC-BY-4.0). Either can be used without permission provided the notice requirements are met.

The Service runs on open-source software, including the following principal components. Each is used under its own licence, and each licence is reproduced in the package as distributed by its author.

A complete, machine-readable list of every dependency and its licence is available on request.
