1. No Verbatim Article Reproduction

NewsFlow does NOT scrape, reproduce, or republish third-party news articles in whole or in substantial part. We extract facts, key figures, and public announcements to author original editorial summaries and analytical overviews.

2. Mandatory Attribution & Direct Links

Every published article provides explicit credit to the news organizations whose reporting informed the piece, including:

  • The name of the origin reporting publication.
  • Direct canonical outbound links to the source article.
  • Original publication timestamps where available.

3. Publisher Opt-Out Mechanism

If you are a publisher and wish to have your RSS feed excluded from NewsFlow's automated discovery engine, contact licensing@newsflow.eu. We promptly honor all exclusion requests and robots directives.
