USING THIS SPACE

Terms and Conditions

Last updated: 6 November 2026

These terms govern use of UntoldWhispers at untoldwhispers.com, including After Dark. Read them together with our Privacy Policy, Community Guidelines and After Dark Guidelines. Questions may be sent to support@untoldwhispers.com.

1. The service

UntoldWhispers is a platform for reading and sharing personal experiences, confessions and fiction. After Dark is a distinct adult-content section. Content may be fictional, incomplete, subjective or inaccurate. We do not independently verify every personal account. Nothing on the site should be treated as a promise of therapeutic benefit or professional medical, legal or financial advice. The service is not an emergency response channel.

2. Eligibility and accounts

You must be legally able to use the service and enter the applicable agreement. After Dark is strictly 18+. Do not misrepresent your age or help an underage person access adult content. Keep account details accurate, use a secure password and tell us if you suspect unauthorised access. You are responsible for activity you authorise through your account. Do not impersonate another person, create accounts for harassment or attempt to access someone else’s account.

3. Public names and privacy

You may use a pen name or choose anonymous public attribution where available. This does not make your account anonymous to administrators. Do not publish another person’s private or identifying information. Avoid details that could identify people involved in intimate or sensitive accounts. Explain concerns about identification or removal through the contact address above.

4. Your submissions and ownership

You retain ownership of original work you submit. You represent that you created it or have the necessary rights and permissions, that your submission does not violate others’ rights, and that you have authority to share any personal information it contains. Clearly distinguish fiction from a personal account. Do not submit copied work or falsely claim that invented events are verified facts.

By submitting content, you grant UntoldWhispers a non-exclusive, royalty-free permission to store it, review it, make necessary backups, correct formatting and minor language errors, and, if approved, publish and display it on the service with your chosen public attribution. This permission does not transfer copyright ownership or authorise selling your private submission as a standalone work or presenting it as your endorsement of a third-party product. Material changes to meaning should be discussed with you. You can request removal; limited backups or records may remain as described in the Privacy Policy.

5. Publication and editorial review

Submissions are not automatically public. We may approve, reject, request revisions, label, reclassify or remove content. Publication is not guaranteed and no fixed review time is promised. Rejection can leave the submission stored privately for review records. You may request an explanation or reconsideration by contacting us with the story reference. Repeatedly resubmitting the same rejected content without addressing the issue may result in restrictions.

6. Prohibited content and conduct

No illegal material, threats, harassment, hate speech, doxxing, scams or deliberate impersonation.
No sexual content involving minors or ambiguous youth-coded characters; incest; sexual assault, coercion or blackmail presented as erotic entertainment; exploitation; bestiality; or non-consensual intimate images.
No intimate content about identifiable real people without the necessary permission, including sexualised celebrity or public-figure impersonation.
No private contact details, invitations to arrange sexual encounters, malicious links, spam or unauthorised advertising.
No plagiarism, copyright infringement or evasion of moderation. After Dark’s original-work and AI-generated-content restrictions apply to its submissions.
No account attacks, scraping that disrupts the service, bypassing access restrictions or attempts to obtain private submissions.

Non-graphic personal accounts of abuse may be considered under the general community guidelines when handled sensitively and without identifying others. The existence of an adult section does not permit prohibited material.

7. After Dark conditions

All intimate characters must be clearly adults. Consent must be freely given and respected. Read content labels and leave any material you do not wish to engage with. An 18+ confirmation is a declaration, not a guarantee about a reader’s age. Authors must follow the current After Dark word limits, language/category selections and submission rules. General and adult feeds are separated, but links to After Dark may appear in site navigation.

8. Comments, likes and moderation

Use comments to discuss stories respectfully. Do not pressure authors for personal information, private messages or intimate contact. Comments can be reviewed before publication, and likes are activity signals rather than verification of a story’s truth. We may remove abusive contributions, restrict accounts or preserve relevant records when investigating reports. Do not manipulate counts through automated or duplicate accounts.

9. Reporting, copyright and appeals

Report harmful content, privacy concerns, impersonation or copyright issues to support@untoldwhispers.com. Include the URL, a clear explanation and supporting information you are entitled to share. For copyright reports, identify the protected work and your authority to act. Do not send unnecessary identity documents. If your content or account is restricted, you may request reconsideration with relevant context. Urgent safety concerns should be directed to appropriate local services rather than relying on a website report.

10. Availability and external services

We may change features, interrupt access for maintenance or discontinue parts of the service. We cannot guarantee continuous availability or recovery of every draft, so keep a personal copy of important work. External links and third-party services have their own rules; a link does not mean we endorse their content or practices.

11. Advertising and payments

The service may display clearly identified advertising or introduce optional paid features in the future. Submitting or publishing a story does not entitle an author to payment or a share of advertising revenue unless we separately agree in writing. Any future paid product must disclose its price, billing and cancellation terms before purchase. No subscription charge is created by these terms alone.

12. Account closure and content removal

You may stop using the service and request account closure or content removal by contacting us. We may suspend or close accounts for serious or repeated violations, unlawful activity or risks to others. Where appropriate we will explain the action and consider an appeal. Data handling after closure follows the Privacy Policy and applicable requirements.

13. Responsibility and legal rights

We provide the service with reasonable care but cannot guarantee the accuracy of user stories, reader responses, uninterrupted access or particular outcomes. You remain responsible for your own submissions and choices. Nothing in these terms excludes liability or limits consumer, privacy or other rights that cannot lawfully be excluded. Any dispute should first be raised with us so we can seek a practical resolution; applicable mandatory law and the jurisdiction required by that law remain unaffected.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the service develops. We will revise the date above and provide notice or request renewed agreement where required. Material changes do not retrospectively transfer ownership of your work or override rights you already have under applicable law.
