Welcome to The Curvy Fashionista! Before you dive into all the style, stories, and resources we offer, we ask that you read this Terms of Service agreement carefully—because when you engage with our site, you’re agreeing to these terms.

1. General Guidelines

We reserve the right to change, update, or tweak any part of this site at any time—including features, content, layout, or access. We may limit or remove certain parts of the site without warning. Ads, affiliate links, and brand promotions are a part of your experience on TCF and help us keep our content free.

You must be at least 18 years old—or the legal age of majority in your location—to use this site or access any of our services. By being here, you confirm that you have the capacity to enter into a binding agreement and that you’re not prohibited from using online services under any laws applicable to you.

To access certain features (like commenting, subscribing, or submitting content), we may ask for personal details like your name and email. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep your login credentials confidential. If we suspect your account is being misused, we reserve the right to suspend or remove it.

We’ll never sell your personal info. For more on how we collect and use data, read our full Privacy Policy.

4. Site Content

Everything you see on The Curvy Fashionista—from our fashion guides and original articles to images and curated shopping links—is either owned by us or used with permission. You may read, enjoy, and share links for personal use, but you may not republish, copy, sell, or otherwise use our content commercially without written permission.

That includes:

  • Reproducing articles or guides elsewhere

We’re here to inspire, not be plagiarized.

5. User-Generated Content

If you post a comment, share a submission, or engage with us publicly, you’re responsible for your own words and content. Please be respectful—no hate speech, harassment, spam, impersonation, or illegal activity. Any such behavior may get you blocked, banned, or reported.

By posting on our platform, you give us permission to display, quote, or reference your content on our site and social channels. You retain ownership, but you grant us a license to share it in the context of the TCF community.

6. How We Make Money

We use affiliate links, display ads, and brand partnerships to keep TCF running and free for you. Sometimes when you click or buy through our links, we earn a commission—at no cost to you. For more info, see our Disclaimer.

  • Attempt to interfere with our site’s operations or security
  • Use the site to distribute harmful content (malware, viruses, etc.)

Be cool, be kind, and respect the space.

8. Intellectual Property Rights

All TCF content—copy, design, branding, and media—is protected by copyright, trademark, and other IP laws. You agree not to use our name, look, or voice to create confusion, impersonate us, or mislead others.

Any feedback, ideas, or pitches you send our way? We may use them—without compensation—to improve TCF or build future features. By sharing with us, you agree that we can incorporate your ideas, if we choose to.

9. Legal Stuff

This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of laws. You agree that any legal action related to this agreement must be filed in the courts of Los Angeles County, California.

If you’re outside the U.S., you’re still responsible for following the laws in your jurisdiction.
