The Republic Eye is a storytelling and media platform operated by American INFO Group (AIG). Our policies protect readers, sources, partners, and contributors while preserving the integrity of our journalism and creative work.
Privacy
We collect only the information needed to deliver content and services (e.g., site analytics, newsletter/SMS sign-ups, contact forms). You can unsubscribe or request deletion at any time via the links provided or our contact form.
Cookies & Tracking
We use cookies, analytics, and advertising pixels to understand engagement and improve performance. You can manage cookies through your browser settings or opt out of marketing emails/SMS directly.
Editorial Standards & Ethics
We prioritize accuracy, context, and transparency. Facts are verified, sources are attributed, conflicts of interest are disclosed, and we do not accept payment for editorial coverage.
Corrections & Right of Reply
If we get something wrong, we fix it promptly. To request a correction or reply, send the URL, issue, and supporting details via our contact form; verified updates are labeled with a timestamp.
Advertising & Sponsorship
Paid placements never influence editorial decisions. Ads and sponsored content are clearly labeled (e.g., “Advertisement,” “Sponsored,” or “Partner Content”) and follow brand-safety guidelines.
Branded/Sponsored Content
Branded features are produced to editorial standards, reviewed for accuracy, and labeled to distinguish them from independent reporting. Client approvals do not override our disclosure rules.
Community & Comments
We welcome civil, on-topic discussion. We remove content that is defamatory, hateful, harassing, promotional spam, or violates privacy; repeat violations may result in bans.
Submissions & UGC
When you submit tips, photos, videos, or op-eds, you grant us a non-exclusive right to publish and edit them. You must own the rights and consent of identifiable people; do not share sensitive data.
Accessibility
We’re committed to an accessible experience and work toward WCAG conformance. Report barriers via our contact form and we’ll prioritize a fix.
Copyright & DMCA
We respect intellectual property. If you believe your work was used without authorization, send a takedown request with links and proof of ownership; we’ll review and respond promptly.
Photo/Video & Event Coverage
Filming/photography may occur at public or ticketed events; attendance may imply consent to be recorded. We avoid publishing images of minors without a guardian’s consent unless newsworthy and lawful.
AI & Automation Disclosure
We may use AI tools for transcription, translation, or draft support; all published work is reviewed by humans for accuracy and tone. We do not publish AI-generated images as documentary evidence.
