Rules of carriage

01What we carry, by default, without asking

• The headline and an excerpt of at most 40 words or 200 characters, taken only from the publisher's own public feed description. Never the full text. Never a rewritten version of your text.
• A direct, dofollow link to your URL on every headline. No redirect, no interstitial, no nofollow. Search engines see the real link and credit you for it.
• Your outlet's name and city. Your logo or favicon appears only after you confirm the outlet.
• Rotation on the TUEPAC homepage, TV tickers, and the reader digest, where your headline appears alongside TUEPAC originals and links to you the same way.

02What we never do

• Re-host your photos. Thumbnails are hot-linked from your feed and render only for Confirmed and Member outlets.
• Carry wire-service copy you do not own. AP, Reuters, and similar bylines are filtered out when the feed exposes them.
• Compete for your ranking. Every story page we publish carries a canonical tag that points at your URL.
• Keep an outlet that asked to leave. Removal requests are honored within 24 hours, and the record stays only so a public submission cannot re-add your domain.
• Sell your story. No paywall, no sponsorship, no ad is ever attached to your headline without a Member agreement that you signed.

03Our note on each story

Under some headlines we add one short paragraph in TUEPAC's own words, labeled in red as ours, saying why a reader should click through. It is forward-looking, carries no quotes, and gives away no ending. It is drafted from the public feed text and reviewed by our desk before it appears.

04Tiers

Every outlet starts Listed. Nothing is withheld from a Listed outlet that it needs to receive readers. Confirming is free and takes one click from an email at your own domain.

05Changes and removal

Write to wire@tuepac.com from an address at your domain, or use the controls on your report page. You can ask for shorter excerpts, no thumbnails, specific sections only, no note, or full removal. Requests are honored within 24 hours, no questions asked, and we confirm by reply when it is done.

06How we count what we send you

Every outbound link carries utm_source=tuepac&utm_medium=referral, so the readers we report are the readers you can see in your own analytics. Clicks are counted by a listener on our page, never by a redirect. Impressions count the times your headline was rendered on a TUEPAC page. Your report page shows both, by day, for the past 30 days.
