Welcome to The Back Row, a place to log what you watch and read and share it with friends. By creating an account or using the site you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the service.
Who can use it
Anyone can join. If you’re under 18, a parent or guardian must give consent and the account is reviewed before it opens. You must give accurate details, especially your date of birth, which can’t be changed later.
Your account
Keep your password safe and don’t share your account. You’re responsible for what happens under it. Tell us straight away at thebackrow000@gmail.com if you think someone else has access.
Your content
You own the reviews, ratings, messages and photos you post. You give us a limited, non-exclusive licence to store and show them to the people your settings allow, only to run the service. You can delete your content at any time.
Be decent
- No harassment, hate, threats, or sexual content involving minors.
- No illegal content, piracy links, spam or scams.
