LUMINA INSTITUTE

Terms of Service

Last updated: September 2026

This is a working draft to set expectations for how the platform works today. It has not been reviewed by legal counsel and should not be treated as final before public launch.

1. Accounts

You must provide accurate information when registering. Readers get immediate access; Author and Editor accounts are reviewed and approved by an administrator before they can publish or edit content. You're responsible for keeping your password secure.

2. Content and publishing

Authors and editors retain ownership of the content they submit. By publishing on Lumina, you grant us a license to host, display, and distribute it through the platform. Submitted content enters review and is not visible to other users until an administrator publishes it.

3. Purchases

Orders are recorded as pending until payment is confirmed through a supported payment provider. No payment provider is connected yet — placing an order today does not charge you or grant access to paid content.

4. Community conduct

Discussions and replies must come from a signed-in account and follow basic standards of respectful conduct. We may remove content or restrict accounts that post spam, harassment, or unlawful material.

5. Uploads

File uploads are limited to verified Author, Editor, and Admin accounts, subject to size and quota limits. You may only upload files you have the rights to distribute.

6. Changes

We may update these terms as the platform develops. Material changes will be reflected here with an updated date.

7. Contact

Questions about these terms can be sent through our Contact page.
