Clarification about post ownership


Website Feedback


Hello. I've got some homebrew material I'd like to share, but this statement in the FAQ is making me hesitant.

"Who owns my comments?

While Paizo Inc does not pre-screen message content, Paizo Inc does reserve the right to edit or remove submitted messages or material at any time.

Does this right and license to use extend to stuff linked to an external site? Such as a google docs page containing said homebrew material?

Heya! In short: nope. If you create content on another platform, that platform's policies are what you want to look into. If this were homebrew content posted inline onto paizo.com's forums, then it would be covered under this FAQ.
