Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using FlyTyingHub.com ("the site"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the site. These terms apply to all visitors, registered users, and content contributors.

2. The Service

FlyTyingHub.com provides a reference library of fly tying recipes, with curated links to purchase fly tying materials from third-party retailers. We are an independent editorial site and are not a retailer ourselves. Product availability, pricing, and fulfilment are entirely the responsibility of the linked retailers.

3. User Accounts

You must provide an accurate email address when creating an account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your password. You must not share your account credentials with others. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, engage in spam, post harmful content, or are used for automated or abusive activity.

4. User-Submitted Content

4a. What You May Submit

You may submit fly tying patterns, including tying steps, material lists, and photographs. Submitted content must be your own original work, or content for which you hold the right to submit. Do not submit content you copied from books, magazines, or other websites without the rightsholder's permission.

4b. Licence You Grant Us

By submitting content, you grant FlyTyingHub.com a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to display, distribute, and reproduce your content on the site and in promotional materials related to the site. You retain ownership of your content. We will credit you as the contributor where practical.

4c. Content Standards

Submitted content must not be defamatory, obscene, harassing, or unlawful. We reserve the right to edit, decline, or remove any submitted content at our discretion, including content that is off-topic, duplicative, or inaccurate.

4d. Review Process

Submitted patterns are reviewed by site administrators before publication. Submission does not guarantee publication.

5. Affiliate Links and Product Recommendations

FlyTyingHub.com participates in affiliate programmes. Buy links on recipe pages may be affiliate links; we may earn a commission if you purchase through them. This does not affect the price you pay. Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial decisions about which patterns to publish or which products to list. See our Privacy Policy for more on how affiliate clicks are tracked.

6. Intellectual Property

The FlyTyingHub.com name, logo, site design, and editorial content we produce are our property and may not be reproduced without permission. Fly tying pattern names and techniques are generally not copyright-protectable; however, specific written instructions, photographs, and other creative expression are protected by copyright and belong to their respective authors.

7. Third-Party Links

The site links to third-party retailer websites. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or availability of those sites. A link does not constitute an endorsement beyond the specific product referenced.

8. Disclaimers

The site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that recipe instructions are complete, accurate, or suitable for any particular fish species or fishing condition. Fly tying involves tools including sharp hooks and blades — always exercise appropriate care. We are not responsible for any injury, loss, or damage resulting from use of information on this site.

Product prices and availability shown on the site are sourced from retailers and may not be current. Always verify pricing at the retailer's website before purchasing.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, FlyTyingHub.com and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

10. Modifications to the Service and Terms

We may modify or discontinue any part of the site at any time without notice. We may update these terms; the revised terms will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

11. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of competent jurisdiction in the State of Florida.
