Terms
Terms of Use
Plain terms for a plain-language site. No wall of legalese.
General information, not legal advice
Everything on GetSnitching, including program pages, the award tracker, reporting-channel pages, and guides, is general information about how public whistleblower and reporting programs work. None of it is legal advice, and reading it does not create an attorney-client relationship with anyone. Whistleblower and reporting decisions can carry real legal and employment risk specific to your situation. Talk to a licensed attorney before you act on anything you read here; many whistleblower attorneys offer a free consultation.
Accuracy
We cite every figure to an official source and describe how in the methodology page, but government pages, deadlines, and dollar figures can change after we last verified a page. Check the linked primary source before you rely on anything for a real decision, and use the contact form if you find something out of date.
Using our content
You are welcome to quote, cite, or link to any page on GetSnitching, including the award tracker's figures, for journalism, research, or your own writing. Attribution back to GetSnitching with a link to the specific page you are citing is all we ask.
No warranty
This site is provided as is, without warranty of any kind. We work to keep every page current and accurate, but we make no guarantee that any figure, deadline, or contact detail is free of error or has not changed since it was last verified. Use of this site is at your own risk.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the site changes. The version in effect is the one posted on this page at the time you use the site.
