Forum:What's the service?

In the terms of use thingy it says we can only use data from the service. I'd like to know what the service is or where we can find it or something like that


 * All is in first line :

Welcome to Wikia (the “Service” or “Site”), operated by Wikia, Inc. (the "Company").


 * They make a distinction between Wikia « the service » and Wikia « the compagny ». — TulipVorlax 12:28, 10 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't know the specific part of the terms of use that you are referring to, but if they specify 'the service' then I would say that they are saying you can use the data from the website. This is probably a legal way of not giving you permission to use data from Wikia, Inc. If they just said Wikia (and didn't differentiate between the website and the company) you would probably eventually get some 'smart-alec' who came along and said their Wikia user account entitled them to see the minutes of a Wikia boardmeeting or some other behind the scenes information that we don't need to see.
 * This first line makes stuff like board meeting information into data about 'the company', so it would only be covered by things in the terms of use that give you permission to 'access data from the company'. I'm guessing that they don't give that sort of permission.David Shepheard 20:40, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
