TC.HT specific points

These apply to the TC.HT website, subdomains, scripts and code (collectively referred to as “TCHT”, or “we” in this section). TCHT is an abbreviation of TroubleChute (TroubleCHuTe).

Please note: The TC.HT website functions as normal in a browser where the user is sent HTML code among other content and a website is displayed. When accesssing the parts of the website (such as specific subdomains) in a terminal such as Bash, PowerShell and othes they are returned raw code for the client to interpret and execute. These are the ‘scripts’. The code is publically available on GitHub and falls under the GNU General Public License v3.0. When users visit the website in a browser and are returned a website; Google Analytics and Google Ads are used, among other tools, techniques and third-party services that should have been outlined already in this document.

Should you choose to continue using the website and the back-end scripts and tools, you agree to the privacy policy and these terms of service.

Please note that TcNo is not responsible for the accuracy of claims (such as the claims to install functional software) as almost everything is third-party and relies on other sources. Software, operating systems and circumstances are constantly changing. While an installation script may work on publish and update, it is not always guaranteed.

Unintended effects may also occur where software malfunction leads too unsatisfactory results and unexpected behaviour. This risk should be considered, understood and accepted should you choose to use any of the front-end or back-end software and scripts that TcNo and TC.HT offers.

Everything is offered AS-IS without any express or implied warranty of any kind. These scripts and code should be considered completely unsupported. By using the packages, scripts and code, you assume all risk for any issues or damages that may occur. TcNo assumes no support nor liability. TcNo will not be held liable for any issues, downtime, or damages that may occur from your use. It is also not the responsibility of TcNo to ensure that the packages, scripts and code works in all scenarios.
