Terms of Service

Draft for the launch edition. These plain-language terms describe how you may use tin356.com. They are a starting point, not legal advice, and they need review by a qualified professional before full production. The governing law and any company details are left as placeholders to be completed then.

Using the site

You may read, share links to and save our stories for personal use. Please use the site lawfully and considerately. Do not try to disrupt it, scrape it in a way that burdens the service or misuse the forms. The site is provided as it is, and may change or go offline at any time.

Our content and your rights

Unless stated otherwise, the text, design and artwork on this site belong to TIN 356 or its contributors, and all rights are reserved. You are welcome to quote short passages with clear attribution and a link to the original story. For longer reuse, please ask first. The concept artwork on the site is for illustration, and you may not reuse it separately.

Illustrative content and no advice

Many stories on the launch edition are explainers, guides or illustrative features. Fictional people, studios and organisations appear in examples and are labelled as such. Nothing on the site is professional advice of any kind, including legal, financial, tax, medical or employment advice. Do not rely on it as a substitute for qualified guidance about your own circumstances.

Links to other sites

If we link to external sites, we do so for convenience. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content or practices.

Submissions

If you send us a pitch, message or reader note, you remain the owner of what you wrote. By sending it you give us permission to read it and, if we publish it, to edit it for length, clarity and accuracy and to publish it with your name or a credit you agree to. We will not publish without telling you first. Please do not send material you do not have the right to share.

Limits of our responsibility

We work to be accurate, but we cannot promise the site is free of errors or interruptions. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for loss arising from your use of or reliance on the site. Nothing in these terms limits any rights you have under mandatory consumer law.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms and will change the date at the top of the page when we do. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms. Questions can be sent to [email protected], a placeholder address that will be confirmed before full launch.

Governing law
