Terms of Use

Last updated: November 14, 2026

These terms apply to everyone who visits or uses tricialouvar.com (the "site"). By using the site, sending a message, leaving a comment or giving your email address, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

A personal, non-commercial site

This is the personal website of Tricia Louvar. It is not a business. Nothing is sold here, and no one is paid to take part. Everything on the site is shared for general interest only.

Your participation is voluntary and at your own risk

Sending a message, leaving a comment, giving your email address or otherwise taking part is entirely your choice. You do so at your own risk.

  • Please don't send anything you would not want shared, such as passwords, financial details, health information or anything confidential. Messages sent over the internet are never completely secure.
  • Anything you post publicly, such as a comment, can be seen and copied by anyone.
  • You are responsible for what you send or post. Please be kind, lawful and honest, and don't post anything that belongs to someone else without their permission.
  • Comments appear only after I've read them. I may edit, decline or remove any comment or message for any reason, and I'm not obliged to reply.

Information only, no advice

Posts describe personal experiences in nature, art and the outdoors. They are not professional, scientific, medical, legal, safety or financial advice. Places, trails, weather and wildlife change. If you decide to visit a place, try an activity or act on anything you read here, you do so at your own risk and are responsible for your own safety and for following local rules.

Links to other websites

The site links to other websites. I don't control them and am not responsible for their content, availability or how they handle your information. Their own terms and privacy policies apply.

Copyright

All writing, photographs, artwork, drawings and audio on this site are original and copyrighted by Tricia Louvar unless stated otherwise. You're welcome to link to any page. Please don't copy, republish or use the content elsewhere without written permission.

By posting a comment, you allow me to show it on the site alongside the post.

No warranties

The site and everything on it are provided "as is" and "as available," without any promise or warranty of any kind. I don't guarantee that the site will always be available, error-free or free of viruses, or that its content is complete, accurate or current.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Tricia Louvar will not be liable for any loss, damage, injury or claim of any kind arising from your use of the site, its content, anything you submit, any outside service it uses, or any website it links to. This includes direct, indirect, incidental and consequential losses, and loss of data. Where the law does not allow liability to be excluded entirely, liability is limited to the smallest amount the law permits.

You agree to hold Tricia Louvar harmless from any claim arising from what you post or send, or from your breaking these terms.

Privacy

How the site handles your name, email address and messages is explained in the Privacy Notice.

Changes

I may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top shows the latest version. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
