Terms and Conditions

The rules for using TENS, sharing our work, and sending material to the newsroom

Last updated: May 21, 2026. These terms apply to readers, subscribers, sources, contributors, and anyone who accesses or interacts with TENS.

Acceptance of terms

By accessing or using TENS, you agree to these Terms and Conditions and any policies linked from this page.

If you do not agree with these terms, do not use the site, submit material, subscribe, or interact with TENS services.

Editorial content

TENS publishes reporting, commentary, interviews, photography, analysis, and magazine features for informational and editorial purposes.

Content may change as stories develop, corrections are made, or archives are updated. We may modify, remove, or restrict content at our discretion.

Intellectual property

Unless otherwise noted, the site design, articles, headlines, images, graphics, branding, and editorial materials are owned by TENS or used with permission.

You may link to TENS pages and share short excerpts with attribution. Reproduction, republication, scraping, commercial use, or redistribution requires prior written permission.

Submissions and news tips

If you submit tips, emails, documents, photos, comments, corrections, or other material, you confirm you have the right to share it with TENS.

Submissions do not create a confidential, fiduciary, employment, or attorney-client relationship. Editorial decisions remain at the sole discretion of TENS.

Acceptable use

You may not use the site to interfere with operations, attempt unauthorized access, scrape at abusive scale, distribute malware, impersonate others, harass staff, or violate law.

We may block, limit, or report activity that threatens readers, sources, staff, infrastructure, or the integrity of the publication.

Third-party links and services

TENS may link to or embed third-party websites, platforms, tools, newsletters, images, or social posts. Those services are not controlled by TENS.

We are not responsible for third-party content, availability, security, terms, privacy practices, or transactions.

No warranties

The site and content are provided as available. We work to publish accurate material, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free operation, or complete accuracy of every item at every moment.

Nothing on TENS should be treated as legal, financial, medical, or professional advice.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, TENS and its staff are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or lost-profit damages arising from use of the site.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to every reader.

Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms and Conditions as the publication, features, or legal requirements change. Continued use of the site after updates means you accept the revised terms.

Rights, permissions, tips, and corrections each have their own route.

For syndication or image use, read Licensing / Photo Use. For factual disputes, read the Corrections Policy. For information handling, read the Privacy Policy.
