All editorial content published on Libera Vice — including articles, photographs, graphics, videos and data visualisations — is the property of Libera Vice or its licensed contributors and is protected by applicable copyright, trademark and related intellectual property laws.
You may share individual articles using the share functions provided, provided that you include a clear attribution to Libera Vice and a direct link to the original article.

4. User-Submitted Content
Where the Service permits users to submit content (including comments, letters and story tips), you grant Libera Vice a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, modify and publish that content in connection with the Service. You represent that you have all necessary rights to grant this licence.
Libera Vice reserves the right to remove any user-submitted content that violates these terms, applicable law, or our editorial standards — including content that is defamatory, hateful, obscene or otherwise objectionable. We are not responsible for user-submitted content and do not endorse any views expressed therein.

The Service may contain links to third-party websites or services. These links are provided for convenience and information only.

6. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without any warranties of any kind, express or implied. Libera Vice does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free or free of viruses or other harmful components. While we strive for accuracy in all our reporting, we make no warranty regarding the completeness, reliability or accuracy of any information published on the Service.
7. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Libera Vice shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising from your use of or inability to use the Service, even if Libera Vice has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount you have paid to Libera Vice in the twelve months preceding the claim, or €100, whichever is greater.
