Terms of Use

Our content and intellectual property

Unless otherwise indicated, the website and its original text, design, logos, graphics, photographs, audio, video, podcast episodes, and other produced materials are owned by or licensed to Always Onward and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. All rights are reserved.

References to third-party names, works, or materials remain the property of their respective owners. A guest retains ownership of their pre-existing works and materials unless a separate written agreement says otherwise.

Permitted use

You may view, listen to, and share links to publicly available Always Onward pages and episodes for personal, noncommercial purposes. You may not reproduce, republish, sell, alter, create derivative works from, remove credits from, or commercially exploit our content without prior written permission, except as allowed by law.

Messages and story submissions

If you send us a message, story idea, guest suggestion, or other material, you represent that you have the right to share it and that doing so does not violate another person’s rights or confidentiality. Do not send sensitive, confidential, unlawful, or third-party copyrighted material unless you have permission.

Submitting an idea does not transfer ownership of your underlying story or pre-existing work to Always Onward. It gives us permission to review the material, discuss it internally, respond to you, and decide whether to explore it further. Submission does not guarantee an interview, production, publication, payment, or confidentiality.

Guest participation

Appearing in an Always Onward recording is governed by a separate Guest Participation and Release Agreement. These website terms do not replace that agreement and do not, by themselves, authorize us to record or publish an interview.

Stories, opinions, and professional information

Always Onward presents personal stories, experiences, and opinions. Content is provided for general informational and storytelling purposes and is not medical, legal, financial, mental-health, or other professional advice. Guests speak for themselves; their views do not necessarily represent those of Always Onward or its hosts.

Third-party services and links

The site may link to or embed services operated by others, including podcast, video, social-media, email, and hosting providers. We do not control their content, availability, accessibility, privacy practices, or terms. Your use of those services is governed by their own policies.

Availability and disclaimers

We work to keep the site accurate, useful, and available, but it is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no guarantee that the site will always be uninterrupted, error-free, complete, current, or free from harmful components.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Always Onward and its hosts will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of or inability to use the site. Nothing in these terms excludes rights or liabilities that cannot legally be excluded.

Changes and governing law

We may update the site and these terms as the project develops. The revision date appears at the top of this page. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect.
