About
What HeadlineLoop is, and what kind of publication model it is not.
Terms
Terms of use
HeadlineLoop is a community publishing platform with a moderated, news-like product surface.
Account use
Users are responsible for activity carried out under their accounts and must use the service lawfully.
User content
Authors remain responsible for the legality and accuracy of their posts, comments, images, and other submitted materials. By submitting content, users grant HeadlineLoop the rights necessary to host, display, index, moderate, and technically distribute that content within the service.
Moderation and publishing workflow
Content may move through draft, pending, under_review, published, or deleted states. HeadlineLoop may limit visibility, remove content, or restrict accounts where required by law, safety, editorial standards, or platform rules.
Prohibited content
Illegal content, infringement, harassment, spam, manipulation, impersonation, and deceptive or abusive use of the platform are not allowed. The more detailed rules live in Community Guidelines.
Notices and complaints
Users may report problematic content through the in-product reporting tools where available. A public notice route is also described on Notice & Action.
Publisher standards
These pages should work together as one visible standards file.
Readers, authors, reviewers, and crawlers should be able to move between the publication model, editorial rules, corrections path, ownership, contact routes, privacy notice, and platform terms without hunting through the site.
