TERMS OF USE · ISSUE 001

Reading and reuse need
clear boundaries.

Effective date: September 11, 2026. Last updated: October 20, 2026. These Terms of Use govern access to this website and its public editorial content. If you do not agree, do not use the site.

01

What the service provides

SIGNAL FRAME publishes information, commentary, explainers, and reference material about practical AI, digital life, hardware decisions, and web literacy. Content is provided for general information and may become outdated. It is not individualized medical, legal, financial, investment, tax, engineering, workplace-safety, or other professional advice. Seek qualified advice for a high-risk decision or emergency.

02

Permission to use the site

Subject to these Terms, you may access the public site for lawful, personal, non-commercial use. This permission is limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable. It does not transfer ownership of the site or permit bulk copying, republication, resale, large-scale scraping, security interference, or creation of a misleading mirror, except where applicable law expressly permits the activity.

03

Acceptable use

You must not violate law or another person’s rights; disrupt, overload, probe, bypass, or compromise the site; introduce malware, fraudulent traffic, invalid ad interactions, or deceptive activity; access non-public data without authorization; impersonate another person; or remove ownership, attribution, copyright, trademark, or disclosure information. We may investigate suspected abuse and take proportionate action to protect the site and its readers.

04

Accuracy, sources, and external services

Technology, products, standards, and linked pages can change. We work under published editorial standards, but cannot guarantee that every page is complete, current, error-free, or suitable in every jurisdiction. Publication and modification dates, source links, and stated limitations help readers assess information. External links and cited services are controlled by their operators; SIGNAL FRAME does not control their availability, content, security, or privacy practices, and a link does not imply endorsement or affiliation.

05

Intellectual property and quotation

Site text, design, graphics, and compilation may be protected by copyright and other laws; no ownership transfers through access to this site. You may share a link and quote short portions with clear credit and a link to the original page. Third-party images carry their own creator and license links in article captions. Those licenses, including any attribution and share-alike conditions, govern reuse of the identified images; these Terms do not restrict rights those licenses grant. Third-party names, brands, product names, and trademarks remain the property of their respective owners. To report alleged infringement, email the page URL, the protected work, your contact details and authority, and the action requested to [email protected].

06

Availability and disclaimers

The site is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. We may add, change, suspend, or remove content or features for editorial, security, legal, technical, or operational reasons. We do not promise uninterrupted access, permanent URLs, compatibility with every device, or that every linked third-party service will remain available. Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

07

Changes and contact

We may update these Terms for product, legal, security, or operational reasons. We will post the revised version here and update the effective or last-updated date; where required, we will provide additional notice. Questions about these Terms can be sent to [email protected].
