Terms & Conditions:
Terms and Conditions of Use Effective Date: April 13, 2011 Welcome to TwinsPages website, where twinning is celebrated and shared with family and friends! We know how it feels when, as prospective parents, you find out “there are two of them.” Twins run through our families. We realized, after raising our set of twins, that it truly does take a community to raise twins. The experience of twins reaches beyond the twins themselves to the community of family and friends that surround and support them. At TwinsPages, we provide a platform that will enable you, your family and friends to stay in touch from prenatal throughout the twins' lives and beyond. When you set up a personal TwinsPages website, you will be able blog about your experiences with the twins, upload and share photos, and share updates on the twins. If you are a twin, then you'll enjoy sharing your twin experience with the people you care about. As with any website providing a social networking platform, as well as tools and information, there are rules about what you can and can’t do and what we will and won't do.
