Terms of Use

Please read these terms before using Mystery Atlas. By accessing or using this website you agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree, please stop using the site.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By using Mystery Atlas you agree to these Terms of Use. These terms apply to all visitors and apply to all content on the site, including articles, reference pages, timelines, glossaries, AI-assisted content, and any other material published now or in the future.

2. General Information Only

All content on Mystery Atlas is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. Nothing on this site constitutes legal, financial, medical, psychological, or other professional advice, and it should not be treated as such.

This site covers mysteries, theories, and contested claims. It presents the evidence for and against them neutrally, and describing a theory or claim is never an endorsement of it. Before making significant decisions based on information found here, seek advice from a qualified professional who can assess your specific situation.

3. Accuracy of Information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure the content on this site is accurate and up to date. However, we make no guarantees regarding the completeness, accuracy, currency, or suitability of any information for your particular purpose.

Scholarship moves: mysteries are solved, documents are declassified, theories are revised, and scientific consensus develops over time. Information that was accurate when published may become outdated. You are responsible for verifying any information before relying on it.

4. No Responsibility for Decisions

You remain solely responsible for all decisions you make based on content from this site — including purchases, contracts, legal matters, and financial decisions.

You should independently verify factual claims and AI-assisted content before acting on them. This site is a starting point, not a substitute for your own judgement or for professional advice.

5. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Australian law, Mystery Atlas and its owners, operators, and contributors are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of this website or reliance on its content, including but not limited to: financial loss, business interruption, lost profits, data loss, property damage, regulatory failures, or personal injury — whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise.

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any right or remedy, or any guarantee, warranty, or other term or condition implied or imposed by the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

6. Third-Party Links

This site may link to external websites and resources for your convenience. These links are not an endorsement of those sites or their content, and we accept no responsibility for the accuracy, safety, or reliability of third-party material. You visit external sites at your own risk.

7. Intellectual Property

The content on Mystery Atlas — including text, images, diagrams, code, and other material — is protected by copyright. You may not copy, reproduce, republish, or redistribute it without prior written permission, except where expressly permitted by law (for example, fair dealing for research or study under the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth)).

8. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The current version is always available on this page. By continuing to use the site after any changes are published, you accept the updated terms.
