1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using LEFT Network ("the Service"), you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provision of this agreement.

2. Description of Service

LEFT Network is a news aggregation service that provides links to articles, videos, and content from various publishers and sources. We do not host or republish full articles; we provide curated links with titles, excerpts, thumbnails, and source attribution that direct users to the original publisher's website.

3. Content and Intellectual Property

All content linked through the Service remains the property of the original publishers. LEFT Network does not claim ownership of any third-party content. Our service provides:

  • Article titles and headlines as published by sources
  • Short excerpts (typically ≤120 characters) for preview purposes
  • Reduced-size thumbnail images for identification
  • Clear attribution and source identification
  • Direct links to original content

This usage constitutes fair use under copyright law for the purpose of news aggregation and commentary.

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful purpose

  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service
  • Scrape or harvest content in violation of our robots.txt
  • Misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity

5. Affiliate Disclosures and Advertising

LEFT Network may include affiliate links and advertising. When you click certain outbound links, we may receive a commission from the merchant. These affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content curation. Some links may include tracking parameters (e.g., UTM parameters) for analytics purposes.

We comply with FTC guidelines and clearly mark sponsored content where applicable.

6. Privacy

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy.
