All content on Data Neue — including text, images, graphics, sounds, videos, and other media — belongs to us, our contributors, or clearly identified third parties. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to access and use our content for personal, non-commercial purposes. You’re welcome to enjoy, share links, and may quote small portions of our content, provided you include a link to the original or credit us as the source. However, copying, reproducing, distributing, republishing, displaying, posting, or modifying our content for commercial purposes or creating derivative works is prohibited without our explicit written permission.

All of our content and media, as well as any designated third-party resources, are protected by applicable laws, including but not limited to trademark, copyright, neighboring rights, and unfair competition law.

2.2 Accuracy and Responsibility

We strive to provide accurate, well-researched content, but mistakes may occur. All content on Data Neue is provided “as is” and “as available” without any representations or warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all warranties, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

We do not guarantee that the content is accurate, reliable, or current; that the website will be available at any particular time or location; or that any defects will be corrected. Your use of the website is solely at your own risk.

Under no circumstances shall Data Neue be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or in connection with your access to or use of — or inability to access or use — the website or its content.

Nothing in this disclaimer shall exclude or limit any warranties or liability that cannot be lawfully excluded under applicable law.

2.3 Links to other websites

Occasionally, we link to other websites that we believe you’ll find interesting, provide additional context to our articles, or are cited as sources for article ideas. These third-party sites are not owned or controlled by us, Data Neue, and inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement or approval by us of the linked website, its operator, or its content. We cannot take responsibility for their content or privacy practices. While we carefully review all links at the time of publication, we recommend visiting them at your own discretion.

2.4 Availability and Changes

We strive to ensure the proper operation of our services and content, but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability or access. We reserve the right to modify, temporarily suspend, or permanently discontinue parts or all of our offerings without prior notice, and users have no claims arising from these changes.

3. Your Contributions

3.1 Guidelines for your Contributions

We want Data Neue to be a space where everyone enjoys their experience. If you choose to participate actively — including, but not limited to, by posting comments — we ask that your contributions be:

→ Respectful and Kind: Contributions should be made with consideration for others, free from insults, harassment, hate speech, or discriminatory language.

→ Original and Authored by You: We only accept submissions that are original and created by you. If you reference other work, please clearly cite the source and ensure you have the right to use it. If there are co-authors, be sure to list them as well.

→ Non-Promotional: Advertising your products, projects, or other initiatives is not permitted unless explicitly authorized by us.

→ Legal and Safe: Contributions must not contain spam, malware, or any form of malicious content. Illegal activities are strictly prohibited.

We reserve the right to evaluate submissions on a case-by-case basis to ensure they adhere to these guidelines. Data Neue is not a public forum for unrestricted opinions, and we may remove content or restrict access if we determine that a contribution does not align with our standards or the spirit of the platform. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in suspension or permanent termination of your access without prior notice.

3.2 Responsibility for your Contributions

You are solely responsible for the content you submit to the website. By submitting content, you warrant and represent that:

You own all rights to the content or have obtained all necessary permissions from the rights holders.

The content does not infringe upon or violate the rights of any third party, including intellectual property rights, privacy, or publicity rights.

If the content includes images or depictions of individuals, you have obtained their consent.

3.3 License Grant

By submitting texts, images, screenshots, or other media content to the website, you grant us, Data Neue, a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, and display such content in any media formats and channels now known or later developed, without compensation to you.

3.4 Moderation and Removal of Content

We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to monitor, edit, or remove any user content at our sole discretion. This may include correcting spelling errors, obscuring prohibited content, or adjusting formatting for better readability. These changes do not need to be explicitly indicated, and we are not required to notify you of such actions.

If you wish to request the removal of your content, you may contact us at inbox@dataneue.com. We will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your request, but cannot guarantee immediate or complete removal.

Furthermore, we reserve the right to not display your content, to display it only for a limited time, or to delete it without prior notice or the obligation to explain our decision.

3.5 Termination of Access

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the website and our services at any time, without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including but not limited to a breach of these Terms and Conditions.

4. Legal Matters

4.1 Updating Our Terms and Conditions

We might update these Terms and Conditions from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we do, we’ll update the effective date (‘Last Updated’) below. If the changes are significant, we may provide a more prominent notice (such as a notification on our website or via email). Your continued use of the website after any such updates constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you should discontinue your use of the website.

4.2 Severability

If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal, and enforceable. If such modification is not possible, the relevant provision shall be deemed deleted. The remaining provisions of these Terms and Conditions shall continue in full force and effect.

4.3 Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of Bulgaria. If there’s ever a dispute, it’ll be handled by the courts in Sofia, Bulgaria.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Data Neue, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and licensors from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with your access to or use of the website, your violation of these Terms and Conditions, or your infringement of any intellectual property or other rights of any third party.

4.5 Out-of-Court Dispute Resolution

We are not obligated to participate in any alternative dispute resolution procedures before a consumer arbitration board, and do not commit to doing so.
