Terms of Use

Ground rules for accessing and using the public archive.

These terms govern access to the public Ethiopian Crisis Platform website. They are intended to set baseline expectations for lawful use of the site, its research surfaces, and the public records it presents.

By continuing to browse or use the site, you agree to use it in a lawful manner and in a way that does not interfere with the platform, other users, or the integrity of published records.

Permitted use

You may read, reference, and link to public pages for research, journalism, education, and general informational use. You may not use the platform to disrupt service availability, scrape protected areas, attempt unauthorized access, or misuse contributor workflows.

Where the platform links to third-party materials, those materials remain governed by the terms and rights of their original publishers.

Accuracy and availability

The platform aggregates public reporting and may summarize or structure source information for navigation and comparison. While care is taken in presentation, the site cannot guarantee that all records are complete, current, or free from error at every moment.

Content availability may change without notice as records are updated, corrected, unpublished, or removed in response to editorial review or source changes.

Intellectual property and source attribution

Original articles, reports, and external media referenced through the platform belong to their respective publishers and authors. The platform does not claim ownership over third-party source material.

Users should preserve attribution when citing platform pages and should consult original sources where deeper quotation, reproduction, or rights-sensitive use is required.
