Effective date: July 24, 2026
Last updated: July 24, 2026

BareAnime may include links to websites, stores, videos, social-media platforms, tools, services, and other online resources operated by third parties.

This External Links Disclaimer explains the limits of BareAnime’s responsibility for those outside websites and services.

In this disclaimer:

  • “BareAnime,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to BareAnime.
  • “Services” refers to BareAnime.com, Shop.BareAnime.com, newsletters, profiles, theory submissions, comments, videos, and other BareAnime-operated services.
  • “External Website” or “Third-Party Service” means a website, app, store, platform, file, service, or resource not controlled by BareAnime.
  • “External Link” means a hyperlink, button, embedded item, advertisement, affiliate link, or other connection leading to a Third-Party Service.

This disclaimer should be read together with BareAnime’s Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Affiliate Disclosure, Sponsored Content and Advertising Policy, and Terms and Conditions.

1. Purpose of External Links

BareAnime may link to third-party resources for purposes such as:

  • Identifying an official source
  • Citing a creator interview
  • Linking to a manga publisher
  • Linking to a licensed streaming service
  • Referencing another creator’s theory
  • Recommending a product
  • Linking to an affiliate retailer
  • Embedding a video
  • Sharing a social-media post
  • Providing technical or educational information
  • Crediting artwork or research
  • Connecting readers with a relevant service

External links are provided for convenience, attribution, context, reference, or commercial purposes.

2. No Control Over Third-Party Services

BareAnime does not own or control most External Websites.

BareAnime generally cannot control:

  • Their content
  • Their availability
  • Their prices
  • Their advertising
  • Their security
  • Their privacy practices
  • Their cookies
  • Their account rules
  • Their customer service
  • Their shipping
  • Their refund policies
  • Their product quality
  • Their legal compliance
  • Their future changes

A third party may change or remove content after BareAnime links to it.

3. No Automatic Endorsement

A link does not automatically mean BareAnime:

  • Endorses the third party
  • Recommends every product or service it offers
  • Agrees with every statement on the linked page
  • Guarantees the linked information
  • Has a business relationship with the operator
  • Is affiliated with the operator
  • Has reviewed the entire website
  • Approves the third party’s privacy or business practices

Some links are included because they are relevant to the topic, even when BareAnime disagrees with the linked viewpoint.

4. Official Sources

BareAnime may link to official sources such as:

  • Manga publishers
  • Animation studios
  • Series websites
  • Creator accounts
  • Licensed streaming platforms
  • Official retailers
  • Official press releases
  • Official interviews
  • Licensed databases

A link to an official source helps readers verify information but does not create an affiliation between BareAnime and that source.

BareAnime does not control whether an official source later changes, moves, restricts, or removes the linked content.

5. Links to Other Creators

BareAnime may link to:

  • YouTube videos
  • Reddit posts
  • Social-media threads
  • Blogs
  • Forums
  • Podcasts
  • Fan theories
  • Articles
  • Artwork portfolios
  • Community discussions

These links may be used for:

  • Attribution
  • Commentary
  • Criticism
  • Reaction
  • Comparison
  • Source identification
  • Reader reference

BareAnime does not adopt every opinion expressed by another creator merely because BareAnime links to it.

6. Affiliate Links

Some External Links may be affiliate links.

When you select an affiliate link and complete a qualifying purchase or action, BareAnime may earn a commission or other benefit at no additional cost to you.

Affiliate links may lead to:

  • Amazon
  • Anime merchandise retailers
  • Bookstores
  • Electronics retailers
  • Software companies
  • Website services
  • Streaming services
  • Other third-party sellers

Affiliate relationships are explained in BareAnime’s Affiliate Disclosure.

The presence of an affiliate link does not guarantee:

  • Product quality
  • Product authenticity
  • Availability
  • Pricing
  • Shipping
  • Compatibility
  • Safety
  • Customer satisfaction
  • Suitability for your needs

7. Third-Party Purchases

When you purchase from an External Website, your transaction is generally with that third party rather than BareAnime.

BareAnime is not ordinarily responsible for the third party’s:

  • Payment processing
  • Billing
  • Shipping
  • Delivery
  • Returns
  • Refunds
  • Warranties
  • Product descriptions
  • Customer service
  • Subscription terms
  • Recurring charges

Review the third party’s terms, refund policy, shipping policy, privacy policy, and product information before purchasing.

Products purchased directly through Shop.BareAnime.com are governed by BareAnime’s own store policies.

8. Pricing and Availability

Prices, promotions, availability, specifications, and product details on External Websites may change at any time.

BareAnime does not guarantee that:

  • A displayed price remains current
  • A discount remains active
  • A product remains in stock
  • A product remains identical
  • A seller continues operating
  • A release date remains unchanged

The information displayed by the third-party seller at the time of purchase controls the transaction.

BareAnime does not guarantee that an External Website is secure.

Third-party websites may contain:

  • Malware
  • Phishing forms
  • Deceptive advertisements

BareAnime may embed:

  • YouTube videos
  • Social-media posts

BareAnime does not control:

  • Replies
  • Comments
  • Recommended posts
  • Tracking
  • Account suspensions
  • Platform moderation
  • Platform availability

The presence of an embedded social post does not mean BareAnime endorses the account or every post it publishes.

14. Advertisements

Advertisements may contain links to third-party websites.

Some advertisements may be selected automatically by an advertising network.

BareAnime may not personally review every advertisement or advertiser.

The appearance of an advertisement does not necessarily mean BareAnime:

  • Recommends the advertiser
  • Verified its claims
  • Guarantees its product
  • Approves its privacy practices

Report advertisements that appear fraudulent, malicious, inappropriate, or misleading.

15. User-Submitted Links

Members may be allowed to include links in:

  • Profiles
  • Theory submissions

  • Unauthorized manga scans
  • Stolen artwork
  • Child sexual abuse material
  • Illegal products

  • Stolen paid content
  • Illegal downloads
  • Unlicensed episode files

  • Circumvention tools used for infringement

BareAnime may remove or replace links that lead to unauthorized material.

The fact that a link is widely available online does not mean the linked material is lawful.

External links may stop working because:

  • A page was moved
  • A website closed
  • Content was deleted
  • A URL changed
  • Access became restricted
  • A platform changed its structure

BareAnime may update or remove broken links when discovered but does not guarantee that every external link will remain active.

  • Rewrite an article
  • Change a product
  • Add advertisements

  • Missing labels
  • Poor keyboard navigation
  • Low contrast
  • Inaccessible videos

28. Links Supplied by Sponsors

Sponsored content may include links selected or required by a sponsor.

BareAnime may review those links for obvious relevance and safety, but the sponsor or linked service controls the destination.

A sponsorship disclosure does not guarantee that the linked product or service is suitable for every user.

  • Does not frame BareAnime in a misleading manner

BareAnime may request removal of links associated with impersonation, fraud, infringement, or other unlawful conduct.

30. Framing and Inline Linking

You may not frame, mirror, or embed substantial BareAnime pages in a way that:

  • Makes the content appear to belong to another website
  • Removes BareAnime branding
  • Conceals the original source

Ordinary links and limited previews created through standard social-sharing tools are generally permitted.
