We are updating our Terms of Service to reflect that Foldit is a collaborative project between several institutions. The new Terms may be found here.
Additionally, in light of the recent General Data Protection Regulation Act (GDPR), we are supplementing our ToS with a Personal Data Policy to clarify what personal data we collect, and how we'll manage it. To be clear - Foldit has always met the GDPR requirements due to our compliance with IRB guidelines for ethical research. We're adding the policy to the website to be as transparent as possible.
Finally, we are also updating our Community Rules to reflect changes to how offenses are handled. Now, on your 4th offense, you will also receive a permanent ban from website communication. You will still be able to play the game, but you will be unable to make posts on the site. You can view the complete rules here.
