Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of FAULTLINE at fault-line.online. By using the site, you agree to them.

About the publication

FAULTLINE is an independent video game publication. We publish reviews, news and long-form editorial on interactive worlds. Every video game named in our "Readings" is an original, fictional work created for the purpose of criticism and illustration; any resemblance to real products is coincidental. Our Magnitude scores are subjective editorial judgements, not statements of fact.

Use of the site

You may read, link to, and share our pages for personal, non-commercial purposes. You agree not to misuse the site — including attempting to disrupt the server, probe its security, scrape it at a rate that degrades service, or submit unlawful, abusive, or deliberately misleading content through our forms.

Intellectual property

The written editorial, the FAULTLINE name, the Magnitude framework, and the site design are the property of the station unless stated otherwise. You may quote short excerpts with clear attribution and a link back. You may not republish whole articles without permission.

Submissions

When you send a field report or join The Sensor Network, you confirm that the information you provide is accurate and yours to share. Handling of those submissions is described in our Privacy Policy. We may use the substance of a tip or correction in our editorial, but we will not publish your personal contact details without consent.

Accuracy & opinion

We work to be accurate, but reviews are opinion and the site is provided "as is". We make no warranty that the content is error-free or that the site will always be available. To the fullest extent permitted by law, FAULTLINE is not liable for any loss arising from reliance on its content.

External links

Where we link to other sites, we do so for reference only and are not responsible for their content or their privacy practices.

Changes

We may update these terms; the current version always lives on this page with the calibration date shown above. Continued use after a change means you accept the revised terms.
