that is what it says when you submit a picture. also id appreciate it if you could go to the website for more information if your actually go
i do not know what a waver is or any legal terms lol.. and its not a picture of me . it was a picture my friend posted and now she is nervous that it could be tracked back to her.
This agreement is not worth the time it took to copy it, you can’t sign away your rights. I remember Exxon used to make us sign a waiver releasing them from all liability if we got hurt at work, I signed it because I knew it wasn’t binding it’s an attempt to trick the little people.But this pervert is a real p*ick did you read this page?

Listen up b1tch take my picture down today or I’ll scrutinize every picture posted until I find one that looks underage then I’ll turn you in.
