01Using this site

By using The Arif's Story ("the site") you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

The site is a personal showcase of a private banknote and coin collection, shared for education and enjoyment.

02Nothing here is for sale

The site is not a shop, marketplace or valuation service. No item shown can be bought, ordered or reserved through it, and nothing on the site is an offer to sell.

Any value, rarity or grade mentioned is a personal note from the collector, not a professional appraisal or financial advice.

03Photos and descriptions

The photographs, descriptions and stories on the site were created by the collector and remain the collector's property. You are welcome to view and link to them, and to share them with credit for non-commercial purposes.

Please don't republish the photos commercially, or present them as your own, without permission. Ask through the contact page.

Banknote and coin designs themselves belong to the issuing authorities. They are shown here for identification and education only.

04Accuracy

Every effort is made to identify each piece correctly (country, issue year, catalog numbers), but mistakes happen. The information is provided as is, without any guarantee.

If you spot an error, a message pointing it out is always appreciated.

05Accounts

Accounts are used to manage the site. If you have one, keep your password private and tell us if you think someone else has used your account.

Accounts that abuse the site, for example by attempting to break in, scrape it aggressively or send spam, may be suspended or removed.

06Fair use

Please don't try to disrupt the site, get around its security or rate limits, or use automated tools to copy it in bulk.

07Liability

The site is a free hobby project provided without warranties of any kind. To the extent the law allows, the collector is not liable for any loss arising from using the site or relying on its information.

08Changes to these terms

These terms may be updated from time to time. The date at the top of the page shows the latest version, and continuing to use the site means you accept it.
