Version of 2026-11-14.
1. Who we are
Verdiktum (the “Service”), available at https://verdiktum.com, is operated by [NAZWA OPERATORA], [ADRES OPERATORA], registration or tax number: [NIP / KRS] (the “Operator”, “we”). Contact: kontakt@verdiktum.com.
2. What the Service is
Verdiktum is a community platform for examining claims and open questions. Users open cases, add evidence with sources, rate evidence, reply with counter-evidence and discuss. The Service calculates a community meter from these contributions, and moderators may close a case with a verdict.
Content on the Service, including meters and verdicts, expresses the assessment of the community on the basis of the material collected. It is not an official finding, a court ruling, legal, medical or financial advice, or a statement of fact by the Operator.
3. Accounts
- You must be at least 16 years old to create an account.
- You must provide a real e-mail address and keep your password confidential. You are responsible for activity on your account.
- One person may hold one account. Accounts created to manipulate ratings are not allowed.
- You can delete your account at any time in the settings.
4. Your content
- You keep all rights to the content you add. You grant the Operator a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to store, display, reproduce and distribute that content within the Service and in its promotion, for as long as the content remains in the Service. After your account is deleted your contributions remain in an anonymous form, because other users’ contributions build on them.
- You confirm that you have the right to publish what you add and that it does not infringe the rights of others.
- You must follow the Community Guidelines, which are part of these Terms.
5. What is not allowed
In particular you must not publish illegal content, accuse identifiable private individuals of offences or misconduct without reliable public evidence, publish private data, harass or threaten anyone, incite hatred or violence, manipulate ratings, spam, or interfere with the operation of the Service.
6. Moderation
- We review content when it is reported or when we become aware of a possible breach. Review is carried out by human moderators. Automated tools (rate limits, word lists, an AI assistant) may flag content but do not make final decisions.
- We may remove or hide content, restrict its visibility, suspend an account for a period or close it. The measure depends on the seriousness and repetition of the breach.
- We give the affected user a statement of reasons and information on how to appeal. Details are in Reporting and appeals.
7. Artificial intelligence
The Service uses an automated assistant. Its content is always labelled. See How we use AI.
8. Availability and changes to the Service
Using the Service is free of charge. The optional paid supporting membership is described in the Membership rules; it has no effect on ratings, the meter or verdicts. We aim for it to be available continuously, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted operation. We may change, suspend or end features. We will give reasonable notice of changes that significantly affect users.
9. Liability
- Users are responsible for the content they publish.
- To the extent permitted by law, the Operator is not liable for the content of users, for decisions made on the basis of content on the Service, or for interruptions beyond its control.
- Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or the statutory rights of consumers.
10. Ending the agreement
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may end the agreement with notice for important reasons, in particular serious or repeated breaches of these Terms, giving a statement of reasons.
11. Changes to these Terms
We may change these Terms for important reasons, such as changes in the law or in how the Service works. We will announce changes in the Service at least 14 days before they take effect. If you do not accept them, you can delete your account.
12. Law and disputes
These Terms are governed by Polish law. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence, and you may bring a claim before the courts of that country. Consumers in the European Union can also use out-of-court dispute resolution bodies.
