Welcome to the Substack publication by DoGoodBiz Studio. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our Substack publication, newsletters, posts, comments, and any other services we offer through this platform (collectively, the “Service”).

By subscribing, reading, or interacting with our content, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not proceed with engaging in our content.

You are welcome here as long as your participation respects others and aligns with our values of integrity, respect, and kindness.
By using this Service, you agree to:

• Use it for lawful purposes only.

5. Community and User-Generated Content

When you post comments or engage in discussions, you retain ownership of your words but grant us a non-exclusive right to display, moderate, and keep your content as part of our publication’s community space.

We encourage thoughtful, respectful dialogue. We reserve the right to delete or report harmful content and to block accounts that do not uphold our community standards.

6. Disclaimers

While we do our best to ensure accuracy, we cannot guarantee the completeness or reliability of information shared. You use this content at your own discretion and responsibility.

Your privacy matters. We only access information that Substack provides to creators (such as your email and subscription type) and use it solely to manage your subscription and communicate with you.

Please refer to Substack’s Privacy Policy for information on how your data is stored and managed by the platform.

8. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms occasionally to reflect changes in our content, community, or legal requirements. Updates will be posted here, and the “Last updated” date will change. Continued use of our Service means you accept any updates.
