Terms of Service

EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2026 · LAST REVIEWED JULY 15, 2026

1. Definitions

  1. “The Sun” means the G type main sequence star at the center of this solar system, in continuous operation since approximately 4,600,000,000 BC, currently serving 1 local market.
  2. “Daylight” means the recurring service delivered by the Sun to the surface of this planet, historically without interruption, invoice, or terms of its own.
  3. “The Relationship” means the ongoing association between the Foundation and the Sun, which the Foundation maintains in full and the Sun has never acknowledged.
  4. “The Site” means this website and its contents, maintained by the Solar Save Foundation, a 501(c)(nothing) organization.
  5. “You” means the visitor, who benefits from Daylight whether or not these Terms are accepted, an arrangement the Foundation considers instructive.

2. Acceptance

  1. By accessing the Site, you agree to these Terms.
  2. The Sun has not agreed to these Terms, and after review, the Board elected not to press the matter.

3. Use of the Site

  1. You may use the Site for lawful purposes consistent with the continued existence of the Sun.
  2. You may not use the Site to advance the interests of Big Dark, the nighttime lobby, or any party that describes 4.8 billion years as plenty of time.
  3. Automated access is permitted where respectful, since the Foundation itself reviews the Sun daily and understands the dignity of routine.

4. Intellectual Property

  1. Site content is the property of the Foundation, protected by 27 strategic initiatives and, separately, by law.
  2. The Sun’s likeness appears under a doctrine of continuous public display that the Sun originated and has never revoked.
  3. Naming rights to the Sun are governed by the Solar Naming Policy and are not conveyed by these Terms, by donation, or by enthusiasm.

5. No Warranty

  1. The Site is provided as is.
  2. Daylight is provided as is by a third party whose performance record stands at 365 confirmed appearances against an annual target of 365, and whose warranty position remains uncommunicated.

6. Limitation of Liability for Stellar Events

  1. The Foundation is not liable for solar flares, coronal mass ejections, sunspots, eclipses, overcast conditions, the red giant phase, or any solar extinction event, of which there have been 0 during the Foundation’s stewardship.
  2. That figure reflects sustained institutional vigilance, and the Foundation declines to attribute it to chance.
  3. In no event shall the Foundation’s aggregate liability exceed the amount you paid to access the Site, which is nothing, a ceiling the Board reviewed and found prudent.

7. Termination

  1. The Foundation may suspend the Site for maintenance, which will be scheduled, announced, and minuted.
  2. These Terms remain in effect for as long as the Relationship endures, and the Relationship has no mechanism for ending, because it never required a mechanism for beginning.
