How our content may be used, shared and reproduced.

By accessing or using the Wake Investigations website, you agree to the following terms. These terms are designed to be clear and fair — not to restrict legitimate use of our work.

Use of Content

Our investigations and supporting materials are released under a free-to-use licence with responsible-use conditions. This means:

  • You may share, reproduce and build upon our work — for journalism, education, research, campaigning or public-interest purposes
  • Attribution is required — please credit Wake Investigations as the source
  • Do not misrepresent or sensationalise our findings — content must be presented in proper context and without distortion

What You Cannot Do

  • Use our work in ways that are misleading, defamatory or likely to cause unjustified harm to individuals
  • Claim our work as your own original reporting
  • Use our content for commercial advertising or in ways that imply our endorsement of a product, organisation or cause
  • Attempt to interfere with the operation of our website or systems

Accuracy and Limitations

We take accuracy seriously and verify our findings before publication. However, investigative journalism involves interpretation of evidence, and new information may emerge after publication.

Our content is provided for informational and public-interest purposes. It does not constitute legal, professional or financial advice. While we strive for accuracy, we make no warranties about the completeness, reliability or suitability of the information published on this site.

If you believe that any of our published content contains a factual error, please contact us. We take correction requests seriously and will investigate them promptly. Verified errors will be corrected clearly and transparently.

Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices or availability of external sites. Linking to an external resource does not imply endorsement of that resource.
