Access constitutes agreement

Operative Conduct
Field reporting standards
You are responsible for all activity under your operator account. You must not submit fabricated sighting data, attempt to corrupt the research archive, interfere with other operators' sessions, or use automated tools to scrape platform data. Violations may result in immediate account suspension.

Sighting reports and field submissions you contribute become part of the Gateway Observatory research archive under a shared research license. You retain ownership of your original observations. By submitting, you grant Gateway Observatory a non-exclusive license to display, analyze, and archive your contributions for research purposes.
