Terms of Service (Draft)

This is a draft and needs legal review before launch. It describes, in plain language, the terms we intend to apply. It is not final and is not legal advice.

Illustrative content

South Today is currently a launch edition. Its stories are illustrative scenarios, not reported news. Characters are fictional or described by role, and byline names are placeholders. Please do not treat anything on the site as a factual report about real people, businesses or events.

No warranties

The site is provided as it is. We do not promise that it will be available, accurate, complete or free of errors. To the extent the law allows, we are not responsible for loss arising from your use of the site.

General information only

Food, outdoor and travel content is general information, not professional advice. Recipes may not suit every diet or allergy. Outdoor pieces cannot account for current weather, trail, water or road conditions, so check local conditions and advisories before you go. Nothing here is medical, legal, financial or safety advice.

Intellectual property

The text, design and original material on South Today belong to South Today, unless noted. You may read, save and share links to stories for personal use. Please do not copy, republish or sell our content without written permission. To ask, write to [email protected].

Because this is a draft, please do not rely on it as a legally reviewed agreement. Our privacy policy page describes how the site handles information.

If you write to us, you are responsible for what you send, and you should only send material you have the right to share. We may decline messages we find inappropriate. As noted above, this draft is meant to give a clear picture of our intentions and will be reviewed before launch.
