Terms of Use

1. Acceptance of these terms

By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms of Use and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

You must be old enough to form a binding agreement where you live, or have the permission of a parent or guardian.

2. Changes to the terms

We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes in the law or in the way the site works. The date at the top of this page shows when they were last revised.

Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms. For significant changes we will place a notice on the homepage.

3. Using the site

You may browse, read and share our articles for personal, non-commercial use. You agree not to:

• interfere with the site or its security, or attempt to gain unauthorised access
• scrape, copy or republish content in bulk without our written permission
• use the site to send spam, malware or unlawful material
• pretend to be another person or organisation

4. Accounts and comments

Where the site lets you comment or create an account, you are responsible for what you post and for keeping your login details secure.

We welcome disagreement but not abuse. We may remove comments that are unlawful, defamatory, hateful, misleading or off topic, and we may suspend accounts that repeatedly break these rules.

5. Content and ownership

Unless stated otherwise, the articles, graphics, layout and brand elements on this site are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright and trademark law.

You may quote short extracts with a clear credit and a link back to the original story. Any other use needs our written permission.

6. Content you submit

When you send us a comment, tip, photo or other material, you keep your rights in it. You give us a non-exclusive, worldwide licence to publish, edit for length and clarity, and archive it as part of our reporting.

You confirm that you have the right to share what you send and that it does not infringe anyone else’s rights.

7. Third-party links and embeds

Our stories may link to other websites or embed content such as videos from external services. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability or privacy practices.

Embedded players may set their own cookies or collect data under their own terms. Please review those terms before you interact with them.

8. Newsletters and emails

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will use your email address to send the briefing you asked for, plus occasional service messages.

You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email. We do not sell your email address.

9. Advertising and sponsored content

Some pages carry advertising, affiliate links or sponsored content. These are clearly labelled and kept separate from our editorial work.

Advertisers have no influence over what we report or how we report it.

10. Accuracy and disclaimers

We work hard to be accurate and correct mistakes promptly, but news develops quickly and the site is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

Nothing on the site is legal, medical, financial or other professional advice. Please speak to a qualified professional about your own situation.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence or for fraud.

12. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or end your access to the site or your account at any time if you break these terms or if we are required to by law.

Sections that by their nature should continue after termination, including those on ownership, disclaimers and liability, will remain in effect.

13. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the place where our company is registered. Any dispute will be handled by the courts of that place, unless local consumer law gives you the right to go elsewhere.
