Privacy & publishing terms

Your account and articles

We store your name, email, country, optional phone number, registration and login IP addresses, browser information and article submission details. These support account security, billing and the one-time free article allowance. Authorized staff can access relevant records.

Publishing and fees

The first article is free once per account. Every later article costs USD 10. Drafts can be saved before payment, but paid slots can only be submitted after payment is confirmed. Five or more paid articles in one checkout receive a 25% discount. Payment does not bypass editorial approval. Writers cannot edit submitted articles; request changes through support. Articles removed by staff disappear publicly, while account, article and billing history is retained.

Services and notifications

Essential account, article, payment and support emails are queued automatically. Optional reminders can be disabled under Account. Where enabled, an IP geolocation provider receives the connection IP to estimate country. Payment details are handled by the hosted gateway. Embedded YouTube videos and social sharing use third-party services and their privacy policies.

Visitor measurement

First-party analytics use daily hashed IP/browser combinations to estimate visits. Session cookies support sign-in and request protection. Share counts measure button interactions, not confirmed posts. Contact the editorial team for access, correction, retention or deletion enquiries.

Content responsibility

Submit original writing and images you have rights to use. Cite sources for reported facts. No search ranking, traffic volume or social distribution is guaranteed. Contact us to resolve payment, refund or publication questions before checkout.
