4. Intellectual property

All articles, images, code, branding, and design are © 2026 Social Media Marketing News unless otherwise marked. Source quotations remain the property of their original authors and are used here under fair use / fair dealing.

AI-generated images on this site are commissioned by us and licensed for use within our articles. They are not in the public domain.

5. Editorial responsibility

We aim for accuracy and we correct mistakes (see Editorial Standards), but no publication is infallible. We make no warranty that articles are free of errors, up to date, or suitable for any particular decision you might make.

Nothing on this site is legal, financial, or business advice. We report on marketing — you make your own calls.

6. Third-party links

Articles link to third-party sites for sourcing. We don't control those sites, and we're not responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices.

7. Newsletter

Subscribing means you agree to receive periodic emails from us. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of every email or by emailing privacy@smm.upalret.online. We do not sell or rent the subscriber list.

8. User submissions

If you email us a tip, pitch, correction, or comment, you grant us permission to:

• Use the substance of your message in our editorial work.
• Quote you with attribution unless you explicitly request anonymity.
• Decline to publish, with no obligation to explain why.

If you send confidential material, label it as such in the email. We protect sources.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

The Site is provided "as is" and "as available". We disclaim all warranties to the maximum extent allowed by law — including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Site. Our total liability for any direct damages is capped at $100 USD or the amount you've paid us in the prior twelve months, whichever is greater.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising out of your misuse of the Site or breach of these Terms.

12. Termination

We can suspend or terminate your access (e.g., newsletter subscription) at any time if you breach these terms. You can stop using the Site at any time for any reason.

13. Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be flagged at the top of this page and, for substantive changes, communicated via the newsletter.

14. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where Social Media Marketing News is operated, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute will be resolved exclusively in courts of that jurisdiction.
