About these terms
These terms govern access to and use of spot.news and its editorial pages, video pages, forms, and other public content. The website is published by SPOT ON, a French SASU. By using the site, you agree to comply with these terms and applicable law.
Editorial information
Spot On aims to publish accurate, fair, independent, and transparent journalism. News develops and information may change after publication. We may correct, update, replace, or remove material where editorially or legally appropriate. Our editorial principles and corrections process are described on the Standards page. Send correction requests to handles@spot.news.
Intellectual property
Unless otherwise identified, the website and the text, graphics, branding, photographs, audio, video, page design, and other material published on it are owned by or licensed to SPOT ON and are protected by intellectual-property law.
You may view the site and share links for lawful, personal, and non-commercial purposes. You may quote brief extracts where permitted by law and with clear attribution and a link to the original page. You may not reproduce, republish, sell, systematically extract, modify, frame, or commercially exploit substantial material without prior written permission or another valid legal basis.
Acceptable use
You must not interfere with the site or its security, attempt unauthorised access, introduce malicious code, scrape the site in a way that materially disrupts it, impersonate another person, submit unlawful or misleading material, or use the site to infringe another person’s rights.
Forms and professional inquiries
Submitting a form does not create a contract, partnership, funding commitment, advisory engagement, employment relationship, or obligation to respond. Any commercial or professional engagement will be governed by a separate written agreement where appropriate.
External services and links
The site may embed or link to services operated by third parties, including YouTube, Substack, and social platforms. Those services control their own availability, content, and terms. A link does not by itself mean that Spot On endorses all content or practices of the external service.
Availability and liability
We take reasonable care in operating the site, but uninterrupted or error-free availability cannot be guaranteed. To the extent permitted by law, SPOT ON is not responsible for indirect or consequential loss arising solely from use of or inability to use the site, or from third-party services outside our control. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful.
Privacy
Our collection and use of personal data are described in the Privacy Policy.
Changes and governing law
We may update these terms to reflect changes to the site or the law. The current version and update date will remain on this page. These terms are governed by French law. Subject to any mandatory legal rights, disputes fall within the jurisdiction of the competent French courts.
