Terms of Use

These terms set out the basis on which you may use Threatcare. They are written to be read, not buried, so please take a moment with them. By using this website you agree to what follows.

Acceptance of these terms

Your access to and use of this website is conditional on accepting these terms together with our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of them, please do not use the site.

Practical guidance, not professional advice

Everything on Threatcare is general information and education to help you spot scams, avoid fraud, and respond if you have been caught out. It is offered “as is” and is not individual legal, financial, or security advice for your particular situation. Our Security Disclaimer forms part of these terms and you should read it alongside them.

Please understand one thing above all: scam tactics change constantly, and nothing on this site is a guarantee of safety. Following our guidance can lower your risk, but no article can make anyone immune to fraud. If you think you have been targeted, act on it with your bank and the official reporting bodies rather than relying on something you have read here.

Intellectual property

Unless stated otherwise, the content on this site is owned by Threatcare and protected by copyright. You are welcome to read it for your own personal, non-commercial use, link to our pages, and quote short excerpts with clear attribution. You may not republish, copy, or redistribute substantial portions without our written permission. We share this work freely to help people stay safe, and we ask you to respect how it is used.

Acceptable use

You agree to use this site lawfully and not to misuse it. In particular, you must not attempt to disrupt or interfere with the site, access it through automated means that place an unreasonable load on it, probe or breach its security, or use it to harm others or for any unlawful purpose.

Links to external sites and tools

We link to external websites, reporting bodies, and tools so you can take action and verify things for yourself. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, security, or privacy practices. A link is not an endorsement, and following one is at your own risk — apply the same caution there that we encourage everywhere else.

No warranties and limitation of liability

We make reasonable efforts to keep the information accurate and current, but we make no warranty that it is complete, reliable, up to date, or fit for any particular purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Threatcare is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, this website, its content, or any site we link to.

Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date above reflects the current version, and continuing to use the site after a change means you accept it.
