1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing The Modern Report ("we," "us," or "the site"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

2. Service Description

The Modern Report is a free news aggregation service that displays headlines and links to articles from third-party publishers. We do not host the underlying article content; clicking a headline takes you to the original publisher's website.

3. Editorial Independence

Headlines are selected algorithmically and through editorial judgment. The presence of a headline does not constitute endorsement of the source or its content. We strive for balance but make no warranty of neutrality.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the site for any unlawful purpose
  • Attempt to disrupt, overload, or compromise our servers (including automated scraping at high request rates)
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code
  • Use the site in any manner that could damage, disable, or impair the service

5. Intellectual Property

Headlines, summaries, and images displayed on the site are the property of their respective publishers and are presented under fair-use principles for the purpose of news aggregation. The Modern Report's name, logo, layout, and original design elements are the property of The Modern Report.

6. Third-Party Content and Links

Clicking a headline takes you to a third-party website. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, accuracy, or availability of external sites.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

The site is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses. News content may contain errors; verify information with primary sources before relying on it.

8. Financial and Investment Disclaimer

Information on our finance pages is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice. Market data may be delayed by 15 minutes or more. Always consult a qualified financial advisor before making investment decisions.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Modern Report shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the site, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

10. Changes to Terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, USA, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
