You are welcome to read, share, and link to our pages. In return, we ask that you use the site lawfully and with good faith. Please do not attempt to disrupt it, break into it, copy it for commercial gain, or use it in any way that could harm the movement or other people.

We respect your information. Our Privacy Notice explains what we collect, why, and the rights you have. It forms part of these terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of South Africa, and any dispute about them or about your use of the site will be handled under South African law.
