Tracking via third-party cookies for purposes including advertising

At any time, your account can be terminated without explanation and without warning by the service.
This service can license user content to third parties
By posting content through the Services, users grant them a transferable and/or sublicensable right, which allows user content to be licensed to third parties.
If you offer suggestions to the service, they become the owner of the ideas that you give them

The service logs the URL of the last web page you visited before visiting the Site and may use that information to gather more data about you.
This service forces users into binding arbitration in the case of disputes
This service forces users to use their own contracted arbitrator and forces users to waive their rights to jury trial.
The service may use tracking pixels, web beacons, browser fingerprinting, and/or device fingerprinting on users.
Tracking technologies (such as web beacons, tracking pixels...) are employed on users and/or the service assigns a unique ID to a browser or device to track its behaviour.
Users have a reduced time period to take legal action against the service
If you wish to bring legal action against a service about a past incident, you may not be able to do so if the Terms you agreed to implied a limited amount of time. As a result it may be worthy to carefully read that section of the Terms to know exactly how much time you might have before your right to take legal action expires.
You waive your right to a class action.
The right to be represented in a class action (or representative action) exists in the US and some European countries. It allows people who have been similarly injured by the same accused to take legal action by a single lawsuit instead of individually. Some Terms of Service try to limit that right. By agreeing to them, you could waive (= renounce to) your right to a class action, which might reduce your chances to be successful in a case.
Instead of asking directly, this Service will assume your consent merely from your usage.
The Service infers your acceptance from your continued usage, instead of prompting you to read the new Terms and asking for direct consent. This doesn’t apply to services that have no way to seek consent from users through their contact details or an account.
