Reproduction, commercial redistribution, modification or republication of protected content requires the necessary permission.

We aim to publish accurate, responsible and fairly presented information. However, news and other published material may contain errors or become outdated.

We reserve the right to correct, clarify, update or remove material where appropriate under our editorial standards and applicable law.

Nothing on this website should automatically be treated as professional legal, medical, financial or other specialised advice.

7. User Submissions and Contributions

Users may be able to submit comments, feedback, story tips, photographs, videos or other materials through designated services.

By submitting material, you confirm that you have the necessary rights and authority to provide it.

You must not submit content that is unlawful, defamatory, fraudulent, threatening, misleading, infringing or otherwise prohibited.

9. Advertising and Sponsorship

Advertising and sponsorship services are subject to separate agreements, applicable policies and approval procedures where relevant.

Advertisers and sponsors are responsible for ensuring that supplied materials and claims comply with applicable laws and do not infringe third-party rights.

Commercial arrangements do not automatically grant editorial control over independent news coverage.

10. Payments and Contributions

Where payment or voluntary contribution features are introduced, their applicable terms, payment methods, charges and refund conditions will be communicated through the relevant service.

No payment should be considered completed unless confirmed through the authorised payment provider or official transaction records.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

To the extent permitted by law, users may be responsible for losses, claims or expenses arising from their unlawful conduct, infringement of third-party rights or material breach of these terms.

15. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms when our services, policies or legal obligations change.

Updated terms will be published on this page. Continued use after an update takes effect may constitute acceptance where permitted by law.

16. Governing Law and Disputes

These terms are intended to operate in accordance with the applicable laws of Kenya, subject to any mandatory rights and protections under other applicable laws.

Disputes should first be raised through appropriate communication channels with a view to resolving them fairly. Nothing in this section removes a person's legal right to approach a competent authority or court.
