Content & IP Rights · Company practice
Users are responsible for their content; Yahoo does not monitor all content
Some content shown in the Services is not created or owned by Yahoo, and the entity or person making it available is solely responsible for it. Yahoo assumes no responsibility for third-party conduct. You, not Yahoo, are entirely responsible for content you upload, post, email or transmit. Yahoo may remove content that violates the Terms or law but says that does not mean it monitors or screens content, and you may be exposed to offensive, indecent or objectionable content.
