Mural Hunter is a map of street art, made from photos people take of the murals they pass. Anyone can look on the website, and by using it you agree to these terms. The app for iPhone and Android is for people with an account: you agree to these terms when you sign in to it. Adding a mural needs an account on either.
Who Can Use It
Mural Hunter is run by Daniel Nordby, an individual in Florida, USA. You must be 16 or older to have an account: to sign in, use the app and post.
What You May Post
Post a photo only if all of these are true:
- You took it yourself.
- It shows street art that anyone can see from a public place: a street, a square, a path.
- The art is the subject. People may pass in the background, but a photo of a person, or one where someone’s face is the point, is not a mural.
- It is not taken inside private property, over a fence or through a window.
- Its pin is where the mural is, as near as you can place it, and its name, artist and labels are your honest best guess.
Nothing hateful, sexual, violent or illegal, no advertising, and no posting the same mural over and over. Each account may add up to 20 murals in any 24 hours.
Your Photos
You keep the copyright in your photos. By posting one, you give Mural Hunter permission to store it, make smaller copies of it, and show it with its pin, name, artist, labels and date to anyone who visits, for as long as it is posted. That permission is free, is not exclusive (you can post your photo anywhere else), and ends when the mural is deleted.
The murals themselves belong to the people who painted them. Mural Hunter shows photos of them so they can be found, and claims nothing over the art.
You can change your mural’s name, artist, labels and pin, or delete it, from its page on the website (your Journal lists them all). The photo and its date cannot be changed: delete the mural and post it again instead.
Reports and Admins
Anyone can report a mural. An admin will look at it, and it may be hidden until then. Admins may show it again, change its name, artist, labels or pin, or delete it.
When someone breaks these terms, admins may suspend their account (it can still sign in and see its murals, but cannot add, change or delete any), or remove it. A removed account is deleted with all its murals, and its email address can’t be used to sign up again.
If you think a decision about your mural or your account was wrong, write to hello@muralhunter.site.
Deleting Your Account
To delete your account, with every mural you have posted and their photos, use Delete My Account in your Settings on the website, or Delete Account in the app’s Settings. If you can’t use either, write to hello@muralhunter.site from your account’s email address instead. Once it is done nothing of it is kept, beyond backups that expire on their own, with one exception: if the account was ever suspended, a scrambled code made from its email address is kept with a record of its suspensions and reports, for 3 years after the record last changed. Deleting an account doesn’t wipe its record: signing up again with the same address brings it back. The Privacy Policy says what is stored and who handles it.
Using the Map
Murals get painted over, and pins can be wrong. Mural Hunter is offered as it is, free, with no promise that a mural is still there or that the way to it is safe. Look where you are going, stay on public ground, and respect the people who live beside the art.
The map is made from OpenStreetMap’s data, © its contributors. Its pictures come from OpenStreetMap on the website and from OpenFreeMap in the app.
The App
If you got the app from Apple’s App Store or from Google Play, their own terms apply to it too — for Apple, its standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement. These terms are between you and Mural Hunter, not Apple or Google. Neither of them is responsible for the app, what it shows or supporting it: questions and claims about it come to hello@muralhunter.site. Apple and its subsidiaries may enforce these terms as they apply to the app you got from the App Store.
Which Law Applies
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, USA. Nothing in them takes away a right that the law where you live gives you and does not let you give up.
Changes
These terms may change as the site and the app do. The date at the top says when they last did. Questions: hello@muralhunter.site.
