Qwibik News is a general-audience publication and does not intentionally direct its Services toward children under 13.
Where features are likely to be accessed by children, we will assess and apply any relevant age-appropriate safety, privacy, and advertising requirements.
We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children in circumstances that violate applicable law.
Parents or guardians may contact us regarding concerns involving minors.
Where legally required, we will restrict inappropriate advertising or processing of children’s information.
16. Disclaimer of Warranties
We take reasonable care in operating the website and preparing our original editorial content.
The website includes developing news, third-party content, and material that may change over time.
We do not guarantee that all content will be free from every error, omission, or interruption.
We do not guarantee particular outcomes from relying on general informational content.
Any limitations in this section apply only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Nothing in these Terms removes statutory guarantees, duties of reasonable care, or consumer protections that cannot lawfully be excluded.
17. Limitation of Liability
Qwibik News is responsible for its conduct to the extent required by applicable law.
We do not accept responsibility for losses resulting solely from circumstances outside our reasonable control where the law permits such an exclusion.
We also do not assume liability merely because a visitor independently chooses to rely on clearly identified third-party opinions or external material, except where applicable law imposes responsibility on us.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or restricts liability for:
- Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
- Death or personal injury caused by negligence where such exclusion is prohibited.
- Intentional misconduct where liability cannot lawfully be excluded.
- Breaches of applicable consumer protection laws for which exclusion is prohibited.
- Any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
If you are a consumer, these Terms do not affect your mandatory statutory rights.
Any additional limitation applying to a future paid service must be separately disclosed and legally valid.
18. Indemnification and Responsibility for Misuse
You are responsible for your own unlawful conduct and for content you submit where liability is established under applicable law.
Where legally permissible, a business user who materially breaches these Terms may be required to compensate Qwibik News for direct, reasonably foreseeable losses caused by that breach, subject to applicable legal safeguards.
Nothing in this section requires consumers to compensate us for matters for which they are not legally responsible, or limits any mandatory consumer rights.
19. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these Terms to reflect changes in:
- Applicable laws and regulations.
- Website services and functionality.
- Security requirements.
- Advertising and monetization arrangements.
- Editorial or operational practices.
Updated Terms will be published on this page with a revised effective date.
Where legally required, we will provide appropriate notice of material changes and obtain any necessary agreement before those changes take effect.
Changes will not retrospectively remove rights that have already accrued under applicable law.
20. Suspension and Termination
We may restrict or suspend access to interactive website features where reasonably necessary because of:
- Serious or repeated violations of these Terms.
- Unlawful activity.
- Security threats.
- Abuse or spam.
- Applicable legal requirements.
Any action will be proportionate and subject to relevant legal obligations.
Where applicable law requires an explanation, review process, or opportunity to challenge a restriction, we will provide the required procedure.
Termination or restriction of website access does not affect statutory rights or legal obligations that continue to apply.
21. International Visitors and Local Laws
Qwibik News may be accessed from countries around the world.
Users are responsible for complying with laws applicable to their own conduct when using the Services.
Our availability in a jurisdiction does not necessarily mean that we actively target or offer regulated services in that jurisdiction.
Where mandatory local consumer, digital services, copyright, privacy, or other laws apply to our operations, those laws take precedence over inconsistent provisions of these Terms.
We do not require users to waive rights or legal protections that cannot lawfully be waived.
22. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of:
[INSERT COUNTRY AND, IF NECESSARY, STATE OR REGION OF THE WEBSITE OPERATOR]
This choice of law does not deprive consumers of mandatory protections that apply under the laws of their country of habitual residence.
If a dispute arises, you may contact Qwibik News first to seek an informal resolution.
Dispute contact: [INSERT WORKING EMAIL]
We will make reasonable efforts to review genuine complaints and resolve disputes fairly.
Where informal resolution is unsuccessful, disputes may be referred to a court or other competent body with jurisdiction under applicable law.
Nothing in these Terms restricts a consumer’s right to bring proceedings before a court that has jurisdiction under mandatory consumer protection rules.
These Terms do not impose mandatory private arbitration or a class-action waiver.
23. Severability
If a provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable, that provision will not be enforced to the extent of the invalidity.
The remaining provisions will continue to apply where legally appropriate and capable of operating independently.
No provision will be interpreted to remove mandatory legal protections.
24. No Waiver
Our failure or delay in enforcing a provision does not automatically constitute a waiver of the right to enforce it later, where permitted by law.
This clause does not override statutory limitation periods, equitable protections, or other legal requirements.
25. Relationship to Other Policies
These Terms should be read alongside other applicable Qwibik News policies, including:
Privacy Policy: https://news.qwibik.com/privacy-policy/
Cookie Policy: [INSERT URL IF A SEPARATE POLICY EXISTS]
