Terms of use

Welcome to susannagibson.com (the “Site”), operated by Susanna Gibson. By using the Site you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Informational content only

The Site, the writing published on it and the resources it lists are general information. They are not legal, medical, psychological or crisis advice, and reading them does not create a professional relationship of any kind. Laws on image-based abuse vary by state and change often. If you need help, contact a licensed attorney, a clinician or one of the support services on the resources page. In an emergency, call 911.

Intellectual property

Unless otherwise noted, the text, design and original photography on the Site are owned by Susanna Gibson and protected by copyright. Excerpts of Call It What It Is are used with permission of the publisher. You may read, link to and quote brief passages with attribution for noncommercial purposes. Any other reproduction requires written permission. Approved press photos may be used for editorial coverage with credit, as described on the press page.

Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Site to transmit unlawful, harassing or abusive material, to attempt to gain unauthorized access to any system, to scrape content at scale for commercial purposes, or to interfere with the Site’s operation. Automated agents may use the Markdown and llms.txt resources provided for that purpose.

Contact form

Messages sent through the contact form are read, but we cannot guarantee a response to every message. Do not send confidential, privileged or intimate material through the form.

Third-party links and services

The Site links to booksellers, news outlets, support organizations and other third parties. Those sites have their own terms and privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices. Book purchases are made with the retailer, not with us.

Disclaimer of warranties

The Site is provided “as is” and “as available.” We work to keep information accurate and current, but we make no warranties about its completeness, accuracy or fitness for a particular purpose.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Susanna Gibson will not be liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site or its content.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. The effective date above reflects the latest version, and continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
