I took a peek at the terms of service[1] when considering signing up for an account. It seemed unusual to have them in a separate language from the rest of the site.

Presuming the translation was correct I would "agree to comply with Chinese laws ... [and] grant the company a non-exclusive, free, perpetual license for global use (including modification, display, and derivative development)."

The referenced terms (including clauses like perpetual licensing) were placeholder text I generated with ChatGPT during development. Currently, my website doesn’t store any user code—even if you’ve registered—except for an unused article feature.

As a bilingual service, I recognize how misleading these provisional terms appear and will remove this page immediately.
