Terms of Use

These terms govern your use of this website. By browsing the site you accept them. If you do not agree with any part of them, please stop using the site. We may revise this page from time to time; the version published here is always the one in force.

Who we are

This is an independent publication about self-development, psychology and mindful living. You can reach us at info@themselves.in with any question about these terms.

What the site is for

The site publishes essays, guides and practices for general information and personal reflection. You are welcome to read it, quote short passages with attribution and a link, and share pages with other people.

Not professional advice

Nothing published here is medical, psychological, legal or financial advice, and reading it does not create a therapeutic or professional relationship of any kind. The content is general in nature and cannot account for your particular circumstances, history or health. Always seek the guidance of a qualified professional before acting on anything that could affect your wellbeing, and never disregard or delay professional advice because of something you read on this site. If you are in crisis, contact your local emergency services or a crisis helpline immediately.

Acceptable use

You agree not to use the site in any way that is unlawful, or that could damage, disable or impair it or interfere with anyone else's use of it. You must not attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its server or any connected system, introduce malicious code, or use automated tools to scrape or overload the site.

Intellectual property

The text, layout, design and original graphics on this site belong to us or are used with permission, and are protected by copyright. Brief quotation for review, comment or teaching is fine when it is attributed and linked. Republishing whole articles, or using the content to train commercial systems, requires written permission. Photographs may be licensed from third parties and remain the property of their respective owners.

External links

Some pages link to other websites. Those sites are not under our control, and a link is not an endorsement of their content, products or practices. We accept no responsibility for what you find there or for the way those sites handle your data — their terms and privacy policies apply, not ours.

Availability

The site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We work to keep the information accurate and current, but we do not warrant that it is complete, error-free, or continuously accessible. Content may be edited, updated or removed at any time without notice.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, this site or from reliance on any information published on it. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

Correspondence

If you write to us, you allow us to read and reply to your message. If we ever want to quote a reader's letter publicly, we ask permission first, and we anonymise it unless you tell us otherwise.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the site develops. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised version. Substantial changes will be noted on this page.
