Tumblr is an ever-evolving platform. With new products, services, and features launching all the time, we need flexibility to make changes, impose limits, and occasionally suspend or terminate certain offerings (like features that flop). We can also terminate or suspend any account at any time. That sounds harsh, but we only use that power when we have a reason, as outlined in these Terms of Service, our [Privacy Policy](https://www.tumblr.com/privacy/automattic), and our [Community Guidelines](https://www.tumblr.com/policy/community).

Users who pay tips via the Tipping Feature (“**Tippers**”) are paying the tip recipient (“**Tippee**”) as a way to show support for the User Content made available by the Tippee. As a Tipper, you acknowledge that tips are entirely voluntary and optional, that you may not receive anything in return, and that the tips you give could be sent to someone or used for a purpose that you may not expect. We will not resolve disputes that arise between users regarding the Tipping Feature. It is important to understand that giving tips does not grant you any additional rights, nor does it entitle you to any privileges with respect to any User Content or any Tippee. You must not give tips in exchange for — or to promote or encourage — content that is against our [Community Guidelines](https://www.tumblr.com/policy/en/community), or that is otherwise illegal, abusive toward others, hateful, or that could result in self-harm.

You assume all risks with the Tipping Feature, including that the User Content will not remain available or that the Tippee or User Content may not live up to your expectations. While we require the Tippee to be responsible, we are not responsible for their behavior. For this reason, you should only use the Tipping Feature with Tippees you trust. Views expressed by Tippees are their own and do not necessarily represent ours.
