Terms of Use

Last updated: 26 October 2026

Welcome to Jharkhand News. These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of this website and its content. By using the site you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

1. About the site

Jharkhand News is a digital news service covering Jharkhand. Alongside original reporting, the site publishes headlines, summaries and links drawn from third-party news sources and RSS feeds. Such items are credited to their original publisher, and the full story belongs to, and remains on, that publisher's website.

2. Use of content

Unless stated otherwise, original content on this site — including text, photographs, graphics, logos and design — is owned by or licensed to Jharkhand News and protected by copyright and other applicable laws.

You may view, share links to, and print articles for your personal, non-commercial use. You may not, without our prior written permission:

  • reproduce, republish, sell or distribute our content, in whole or in substantial part;
  • remove or alter any copyright, trademark or attribution notice;
  • scrape, crawl or harvest content using automated means, other than standard search-engine indexing;
  • frame the site or present our content as your own.

Short quotations with clear attribution and a link to the original article are welcome.

3. Third-party content and links

The site links to and summarises content from other websites. We do not control those websites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, availability or privacy practices. Rights in third-party content remain with their respective owners. If you believe any material on this site infringes your rights, please write to us (see section 9) and we will review it promptly.

4. Accuracy of information

We work to keep our reporting accurate and up to date, and we correct errors as described in our Corrections Policy. However, news develops quickly and content is provided “as is” for general information only. It is not professional, legal, financial or medical advice, and you should not rely on it as such.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the site to:

  • break any applicable law, including the Information Technology Act, 2000 and rules made under it;
  • attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its servers or its administration area;
  • introduce malware or interfere with the site's normal operation, including through excessive automated requests;
  • impersonate any person or misrepresent your connection with Jharkhand News.

6. Advertising

The site may carry advertisements and sponsored links, which are clearly identified. Advertisers are responsible for their own content, and an advertisement does not mean we endorse the advertiser or its products.

7. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Jharkhand News, its staff and contributors are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, the site or any content on it or linked from it. We do not guarantee that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free or free of harmful components.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page, and the date at the top will be updated. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised terms.

9. Contact and grievances

Questions about these terms, copyright or takedown requests, and grievances may be sent to jharkhandsocialnews@gmail.com. We aim to acknowledge complaints within 24 hours and to resolve them within 15 days.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute arising from them or from your use of the site is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Ranchi, Jharkhand.
