Terms of use

Draft for review before launch.

Using Joylet

Joylet is free to read, and you do not need an account. Please use the site lawfully, and do not try to break it, overload it or get around its limits.

Our stories

  • The words, design and logo on Joylet belong to Joylet unless we say otherwise. Photos, videos and quotes from others belong to the people credited with them.
  • Share links to our stories as widely as you like. That is what they are for.
  • Quoting a short passage with a link back to the story is welcome.
  • Please ask us before you republish a whole story or use our photos.

Accuracy

We check every story against its sources and correct mistakes openly, as our standards explain. Our stories are news, not professional advice. For a medical, legal or money decision, talk to someone qualified.

Links to other sites

We link to the original reporting behind our stories and to ways you can help. Those sites are run by other people, and we are not responsible for what they say or do. Help links on a story show the date we last checked them.

The newsletter

You can sign up on the newsletter page and leave at any time with the unsubscribe link at the bottom of every issue.

Stories you send us

When you send us a story or a nomination, the submission terms apply as well as these.

Your privacy

Our privacy notice explains what we collect and why.

Changes

We may change, pause or remove parts of the site. When these terms change, the new version will appear on this page.

Liability

We provide Joylet as it is. As far as the law allows, we are not liable for loss that comes from using the site or relying on a story. Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have by law.
