Terms of Service

Last updated: January 2026

Welcome to the ABIDE-ing Tips Newsletter, published by ABIDE of NC, LLC. By subscribing, reading, or engaging with this newsletter, you agree to the terms below. If you don’t agree, the fix is simple: don’t subscribe.

No hard feelings.


1. What This Newsletter Is (and Isn’t)

ABIDE-ing Tips offers short, practical insights on bias mitigation, leadership, belonging, faith, critical thinking, and human behavior. Content is educational and reflective, not prescriptive.

This newsletter is not medical advice, mental health treatment, legal counsel, financial advice, or pastoral care. Read thoughtfully. Apply responsibly. Consult qualified professionals when needed.


2. Intellectual Property & Use of Content

All original content is owned by ABIDE of NC, LLC, unless otherwise credited.

You may:
• Read, save, and share links
• Quote brief excerpts with proper attribution

You may not:
• Reproduce full posts without permission
• Resell, repackage, scrape, or train AI systems using the content
• Present the work as your own

If you want to license or republish content, ask first. I’m human.


3. Subscriber Conduct

You agree to engage in good faith.

That means:
• No harassment, hate speech, or personal attacks
• No spamming comment sections or replies
• No distortion of content to provoke outrage or misrepresent intent

Disagreement is welcome. Bad-faith behavior is not. Accounts may be muted or removed at the publisher’s discretion.


4. Accuracy, Evolution, and Intellectual Honesty

Content reflects the best understanding available at the time of writing. Perspectives may evolve as evidence grows.

Growth is not inconsistency. Updating one’s thinking is a feature, not a bug.


5. Privacy & Data Use

Your email address is used only to deliver the newsletter and related ABIDE content.

We do not sell, rent, or trade subscriber information.

Unsubscribe anytime. No guilt. No drama.

(For platform-level data practices, see Substack’s privacy policy.)


6. Paid Subscriptions (If Applicable)

If you choose a paid tier:
• Payments are processed through Substack
• Access continues for the billing period
• Refunds follow Substack’s policies

Prices, benefits, and tiers may change with notice.


7. Limitation of Liability

ABIDE of NC, LLC is not liable for how you interpret, apply, or misuse the content.

If something here challenges you… good.
If something harms you because it was misapplied… that’s on the application, not the idea.


8. Termination

Access may be suspended or terminated if these terms are violated. This is rare. Boundaries exist so the space stays thoughtful and safe.


9. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States.
