8. Terms of Use for the Guestbook and the Artificial Intelligence Chat Tool
8.1. Guestbook:
a) Messages left in the guestbook are published publicly on the Site after approval by the Site Owner. The Visitor leaves a message knowing that, if the message is approved, the name provided and the text of the message will be displayed publicly together with the country information.
b) Content that is unlawful, that contains insult, threat or discrimination, that infringes the personality rights of third parties protected by Articles 24 and 25 of the Turkish Civil Code, or that constitutes advertising or unsolicited messaging, will not be published.
c) The Site Owner exclusively and at all times reserves the right to publish or not to publish any message, to remove a published message without stating grounds, and to determine the moderation criteria. The approval process consists of a reasonable diligence review as to the manifest unlawfulness of messages; the publication of a message does not mean that its content has been adopted by the Site Owner, and legal responsibility for the message lies primarily with the Visitor who wrote it. Nevertheless, anyone who considers that a published message is unlawful or infringes their rights may send a notification to contact@msgxr.dev; upon notification the message is reviewed without delay and any content found to be unlawful is removed immediately (notice-and-takedown procedure).
ç) By leaving a message in the guestbook, the Visitor is deemed to have granted the Site Owner a simple (non-exclusive), royalty-free and revocable licence to publish that message on the Site, where the message constitutes an intellectual work protected under FSEK. This licence is limited to the period during which the message remains published; the Visitor may at any time request the removal of the message by sending a notification to contact@msgxr.dev, and the licence terminates upon removal of the message.
8.2. Artificial intelligence chat tool:
a) The chat tool on the Site is an experimental tool powered by large language model technology and intended to provide general information about the Site and the Site Owner. Chat messages are processed on the Cloudflare Workers AI infrastructure for the purpose of generating responses.
b) The outputs produced by the tool are generated automatically and may contain inaccurate, incomplete or outdated information. These outputs do not constitute a statement, undertaking or advice of the Site Owner and are in no way binding. The Visitor is obliged to verify the information from independent sources before acting in reliance on the outputs.
c) It is prohibited for the Visitor to enter unlawful content into the chat tool, to abuse the tool or to attempt to exceed its usage limits. The use of the tool is subject to reasonable technical limits (rate and usage caps); the Site Owner reserves the right to modify, suspend or remove the tool at any time.
