Terms of Use
The terms on which this site is made available.
Using this site
Beacon Legal News is published for informational use. By using it you accept these terms and the disclaimer, which forms part of them.
Permitted use
Read it, print it, quote it. You may quote a reasonable extract with attribution to Beacon Legal News and a link to the article. You may not republish whole articles, mirror the site, or present its material as your own or as another publication's.
Automated bulk copying — scraping the site to build a competing content library or a training corpus for resale — is not permitted under these terms.
Intellectual property
Article text, the Beacon name and mark, the design system, and the original illustrations are ours. Statutes, regulations, and court decisions quoted or described are, of course, not — they are public law, and we point you to the official versions.
No advice, no relationship
Nothing on this site is legal advice, and using it creates no attorney–client relationship. This is set out fully in the disclaimer.
Accuracy and availability
We work hard to be accurate and correct errors when we find them, but we do not warrant that every statement is complete, current, or applicable to your circumstances. The site is provided as is, and we do not guarantee that it will be available without interruption.
External sites
Links to other sites are provided for reference. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content or practices. A link is not an endorsement.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Beacon Legal News is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from use of this site or reliance on its content.
Governing law
We do not name a governing jurisdiction here, because doing so would be a claim about where this publication operates that we are not in a position to make. Mandatory consumer-protection rules in your own jurisdiction are unaffected by these terms.
Changes
These terms may be revised. Continuing to use the site after a revision means accepting the revised terms.
