Although, you may reference the products on social media, we still ask you keep public posting to a reasonable minimum. This means only referring to SRD material and not calling the projects a way to pirate or "Get free" 5e material. Remember that these products are intended as a digital tool to help you use products you already own.
Do not mention them on the Foundry, Forge or Roll20 Discord Server. (you'll likely not enjoy their responses if you do, regardless of your legal rights to the materials.)
Please do what you can to hide them in streams of your games (see Roll20 & Foundry streamer modes) so we don't have random people misusing the tools.
As always, Please ensure you access content in accordance with your local laws.
