Terms of use
The rules that apply when you read and use the Tearline website.
About these terms
Tearline is published by Fixpoint Security Limited, a company registered in England and Wales under number 17226285, at The Old Mill, Blisworth Hill Farm, Stoke Road, Blisworth, Northampton, NN7 3DB. By using this website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Using the site
You are welcome to read, share and link to Tearline. Please do not misuse the site: that includes trying to access parts of it you are not meant to, testing its security without our written permission, disrupting it, or copying its content in bulk by automated means.
Our content
The articles, images, audio and design on this site belong to us or to the people who licensed them to us. You can quote short extracts with a credit and a link back to the original article. For anything more, ask us first at support@tearline.co.uk.
Not professional advice
We work hard to make our reporting accurate, but it is general information, not security, legal or financial advice for your situation. Before acting on anything you read here, take advice from a qualified professional.
Partner content
Some stories are produced in partnership with companies that pay to support them. These are always clearly labelled with the partner's name. We keep editorial control over everything we publish, and featuring a partner is not an endorsement of their products or services.
Links to other sites
We link to other websites where they help explain a story. We are not responsible for their content or how they handle your information.
Our responsibility to you
We are not liable for any loss that results from relying on information on this site, or from the site being unavailable. Nothing in these terms limits our liability where the law does not allow it, including for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud.
Changes and governing law
We may update these terms from time to time, and the date at the top shows when they last changed. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and disputes will be dealt with by the courts of England and Wales. If you live elsewhere in the UK, you can also bring proceedings in your local courts.
