Terms of Service

Petaled / bloomednews.com — Last updated: June 2025

These terms govern your use of bloomednews.com. They are written plainly because burying important things in dense legal prose is a waste of everyone's time.

The Site and How It Works

Petaled publishes news, analysis, and commentary. The site is supported by advertising revenue. Ads — including display ads, programmatic placements, and sponsored content — appear throughout the site. Sponsored content is labeled. Advertising relationships do not dictate editorial decisions.

Your Use of the Site

You may read, link to, and share content from bloomednews.com for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not:

  • Scrape, crawl, or systematically copy content without written permission
  • Republish, reproduce, or redistribute substantial portions of our content without authorization
  • Use automated tools to access the site in ways that degrade performance for other users
  • Misrepresent our content, alter it, or present it in a false context
  • Attempt to interfere with the site's security, infrastructure, or operations

If you want to syndicate, license, or reproduce our content for commercial use, contact us first at hello@bloomednews.com.

Intellectual Property

All original content on bloomednews.com — articles, headlines, photographs, graphics, and compilation — belongs to Petaled or its licensors and is protected by copyright. Nothing in these terms transfers any ownership to you. The name Petaled and the bloomednews.com brand are our property.

If you believe content on this site infringes your copyright, send a substantive notice to hello@bloomednews.com with enough detail for us to investigate.

Submissions & Tips

If you send us a tip, pitch, or unsolicited submission, you grant Petaled the right to review it and, if we use it, to publish it with appropriate credit. We will not hold tips in confidence unless we have explicitly agreed to do so in writing. Do not send us anything you cannot share.

Disclaimers

Content on this site is provided for informational purposes. We aim for accuracy and correct errors when we find them. That said:

  • Nothing here constitutes legal, financial, medical, or professional advice.
  • We make no warranty — express or implied — that the site will be available at all times or that content is free from error.
  • Third-party links and advertiser content are outside our control. We are not responsible for what third parties do on their own platforms.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Petaled and its staff are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content. If you are dissatisfied with any part of the site, your remedy is to stop using it.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms. When we do, the date at the top changes. Material changes will be noted on the site. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. If you disagree with a change, stop using the site.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which Petaled operates, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
