Terms of Use

1. Acceptance

By accessing thecyber.news (the "Site") you agree to these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

2. Editorial use

All content on the Site — articles, briefings, advisories, annotations, illustrations — is editorial work produced by the thecyber.news team or its contributors. Personal reading, individual sharing of links, and quotation with clear attribution and a link back to the original page are permitted.

You may not, without prior written permission:

• Republish, mirror, or syndicate full articles on another site or platform.
• Use the Site or its contents to train or fine-tune machine-learning models.
• Scrape the Site at a rate that materially impacts other readers.
• Strip or obscure attribution, bylines, or canonical URLs.

3. No advice

Articles describe security incidents, vulnerabilities, and policy developments for an informed general audience. Nothing on the Site constitutes legal, financial, or operational security advice for your specific environment. Always consult a qualified professional before acting on any information you read here.

4. Tips and submissions

When you send us a tip, document, or correction, you confirm that you have the right to share that material with us, and you grant us permission to use it in our editorial process. We protect sources and never disclose identifying information without explicit consent. Sensitive submissions should reach us through the address listed under Contact.

5. Newsletter

Subscribing to the daily briefing is double opt-in: you submit an email address, we send a confirmation token, and we only add you to the list once you confirm. Every email contains a one-click unsubscribe. We do not sell, lease, or share the subscriber list with third parties.

6. Intellectual property

All editorial content, the "thecyber.news" name, the masthead wordmark, and any associated logos are © thecyber.news unless otherwise stated. Quotation with attribution is welcome. Use of the marks in a way that suggests endorsement requires written permission.

7. Third-party services

The Site uses Cloudflare for delivery and protection, and Google Analytics for anonymised audience measurement. See the Privacy page for details.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The Site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be error-free, uninterrupted, or free of harmful components.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, thecyber.news, its contributors and operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site.

10. Changes

We may revise these Terms over time. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be flagged on the front page or in the daily briefing.

11. Governing law

We will operate the Site in good faith and in accordance with applicable law. Formal selection of governing jurisdiction and dispute-resolution venue is pending legal review and will be added in a future revision.
