Please read the Terms of Service carefully, as by using Darflen you confirm that you accept the conditions stated. If you do not accept the conditions of the Terms you must not use Darflen.

1. Account creation and maintenance
To use some features of Darflen, you will need to register an account, which is optional but allows users to interact with each other. To register an account you must be at least 13 years of age or the minimum age for social media in your jurisdiction. You must not use Darflen if you do not meet the minimum age requirement.
To register an account, you must accept the conditions of the Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy, which can be read [link to Privacy Policy with text “here”].
You are responsible for keeping your account and account password secure. You are responsible for use of your account even if it is used by another person. If you suspect your account is no longer secure (for example, in the event of a password attack or account hacking) please [link to contact us with text “contact us”] immediately and, if necessary, change your password.
You cannot use another person's Darflen account without permission.
