Terms of Service
The rules for using NewsIQ. Please read them before creating an account.
Who we are and these terms
These Terms are an agreement between you and NewsIQ ("we", "us"), which provides the service at https://newsiq.online. By using NewsIQ or creating an account, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.
Eligibility
You may read NewsIQ's public pages without an account. To create an account you must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding agreement.
What NewsIQ does
NewsIQ collects news articles from publishers' public RSS feeds and news search, groups articles about the same event into a story, and uses AI to write neutral headlines, summaries, timelines and comparisons of how different outlets covered it. NewsIQ is not a newsroom and does not produce original reporting. Each story links to the original articles, whose copyright stays with their publishers.
Your account
You can sign up with an email address and password or with Google. Keep your password confidential; you are responsible for activity on your account. If you think someone else has accessed it, change your password and tell us at hello.newsiq@gmail.com. You can delete your account at any time in Settings.
AI-generated content
Headlines, summaries, timelines and comparisons on NewsIQ are generated by AI models. They can be wrong, incomplete or out of date, and can misstate what a source said. They are provided for general information only. Check the original articles before relying on anything important, and do not treat NewsIQ as legal, financial, medical or other professional advice.
Publishers' content and copyright notices
We show short excerpts, attribution and links rather than republishing full articles. If you are a rights holder and believe material on NewsIQ infringes your rights, send a notice through the copyright form in the Legal Center or to hello.newsiq@gmail.com (see the Copyright Policy). We review every notice and remove material where appropriate.
Acceptable use
Do not misuse NewsIQ. In particular, do not break the law using it, attempt to access accounts or systems you are not authorised to, interfere with the service, or scrape or bulk-download NewsIQ's pages or API without written permission. The Acceptable Use Policy has the details.
Our intellectual property
Apart from publishers' content, the NewsIQ software, design, branding and the headlines and summaries we generate are ours. You may share links to NewsIQ stories and quote short passages with attribution. You may not copy the service or its content at scale.
Paid plans
NewsIQ is currently free. A Premium plan is planned but not yet available, and we do not take any payments. Before any paid plan launches, we will publish its price, billing, renewal, cancellation and refund terms, and you will only be charged if you choose to subscribe.
Changes and availability
NewsIQ is an early-stage service that is under active development. Features may change or be removed, and the service may sometimes be unavailable. We will give reasonable notice of changes that materially affect you.
Suspension and termination
We may suspend or close an account that breaks these Terms or puts the service or other people at risk. You can stop using NewsIQ and delete your account at any time.
Disclaimer
NewsIQ is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent the law allows, we make no warranties about the accuracy, completeness or availability of the service or its AI-generated content.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for decisions made on the basis of AI-generated content or publishers' articles. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or your rights as a consumer.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of India. We will first try to resolve any dispute informally; please contact us at hello.newsiq@gmail.com. Otherwise, disputes are subject to the courts of competent jurisdiction in India.
Changes to these Terms and contact
We may update these Terms. The date at the top shows the latest version, and we will tell registered users about material changes by email or on the site. Questions: hello.newsiq@gmail.com.
