Legal
Terms of Service
WideRiver is an owner-operated site published from Australia. By using the site or submitting a comment you agree to these terms. This is a good-faith description of how the site is run, not certified legal advice.
Using the site
WideRiver provides curated AI news, benchmark comparisons, and written commentary for informational purposes. You may read and share the content, but you must not misuse the site — including attempting to disrupt it, scrape it abusively, or circumvent its rate limits and abuse controls.
Comments and submissions
Acceptable use
When you post a comment you agree not to submit content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, hateful, infringing, spam, or otherwise abusive, and not to impersonate others or post another person's private information.
Moderation and removal
Every comment is moderated before it appears. We use automated moderation together with human review, and we may reject, edit, or remove any comment — before or after publication — at our discretion, without being obliged to give a reason. Approval of a comment does not imply we endorse it.
Ownership and licence
You keep ownership of the comments you write. By submitting a comment, you grant WideRiver a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, moderate, display, and distribute that comment on and in connection with the site. You confirm you have the right to grant this licence for anything you submit. How the associated data is handled is described in the Privacy Policy.
Third-party content and attribution
News items link to their original sources, and each is attributed with a link back to the source article. We do not control third-party sites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or availability. Trademarks and product names belong to their respective owners.
Benchmark data
Benchmark scores are compiled from publicly available model releases and research and are provided “as is”, without warranty of accuracy, completeness, or fitness for any purpose. Sources change and we may not always reflect the latest figures. Do not rely on these numbers as your sole basis for a decision — verify against the primary source, which we link.
Intellectual property
Except for third-party content and your own submitted comments, the content and design of WideRiver belong to the site operator. Please do not reproduce substantial portions of the site without attribution or permission.
Disclaimer and limitation of liability
The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operator is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from your use of, or inability to use, the site or its content. Nothing in these terms excludes any rights you have under mandatory consumer law that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Changes and governing law
We may update these terms; when we do, we will change the “Last updated” date above. The site is operated from Australia, and these terms are governed by the laws of Australia.
