Terms of Service

01Using the site

By reading SpawningPoint, you agree to use the site lawfully and in a way that does not disrupt the service for other readers.

We may update these terms when the site changes. The latest version will live on this page.

02Editorial independence

SpawningPoint reviews are written without input from advertisers, sponsors, or affiliate partners. Scores are determined before any commercial relationship is discussed.

Where a review unit was provided free of charge, that fact is disclosed in the article footer.

Where a link is an affiliate link, it is marked with the † symbol and a footnote.

03Reader conduct

Do not scrape the site at scale, attack our infrastructure, republish full articles, or misrepresent SpawningPoint content as your own.

Short quotes with clear attribution and a link back are welcome. Wholesale copying is not.

04Submissions and corrections

If you send us tips, corrections, pitches, or feedback, you give us permission to read, assess, and respond to that material.

Corrections should go to corrections@spawningpoint.com. We review credible error reports and update articles when the evidence supports it.

05Intellectual property

All editorial content is © SpawningPoint Media Ltd unless otherwise marked. You may quote up to 200 words with attribution and a link back. For longer excerpts, contact editorial@spawningpoint.com.

Screenshots, box art, and trade dress remain the property of their respective rights holders and are reproduced under fair-use provisions for commentary and criticism.

06Disclaimers

The site is provided "as is." We do our best to be accurate. We may still be wrong. If you spot an error, write to corrections@spawningpoint.com.

Scores reflect our reviewer's assessment at time of publication. Patches, firmware updates, and platform changes may shift the value calculation in either direction.

07Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any dispute will be resolved in the courts of Manchester, United Kingdom.
