Terms of Service

Use the site freely and at no cost. Our analysis is produced by an automated system— it can be wrong, so don't use a result as the sole basis for accusing anyone of anything. Don't try to work around the limits, and don't use the site for unlawful purposes.

syto.digital is built and operated by the Sytoproject. By using the site you accept these terms. If you don't accept them, simply don't use the site. Questions: support.specialcat@gmail.com.

Syto is a research project that tracks strategic narratives in the information space. Narrative cards, reports and Propaganda Detection results are analytical conclusions, largely generated by language models from public material.

They are not: legal, financial or professional advice; a finding that an offence occurred; or a claim that a particular person acts on anyone's instructions. Language models get things wrong — both in what they flag and in what they miss. Treat a result as a starting point for your own verification, not a verdict.

How we vet sources and reach conclusions is described under About the project.

An account needs a working email address. Keeping access to it secure is your responsibility; don't share your credentials. We may suspend or remove an account used for abuse, automated bulk access, or attempts to circumvent limits. You can delete your account at any time by writing to support.specialcat@gmail.com.

Please don't:

• use automated bulk access, scrape the site, or work around the daily limits;
• submit other people's personal data that you have no right to pass on;
• attempt to disrupt the service, or reach other people's accounts or operator-only areas;
• use material from the site to harass specific people, or for anything unlawful.

Every check costs us money, so the number of free checks per day is capped — separately for anonymous visitors and signed-in users. The limits may change without notice, and checking by link requires signing in. Anonymous requests pass through an "are you human" check.

The text, analysis, reports and design of this site belong to the Syto project. You are welcome to quote them in journalism, research and education, with attribution to syto.digital. Systematically copying the site wholesale, or building a derivative service on our data, needs our agreement.

The monitored material is other people's public posts, analysed in the public interest. We paraphrase rather than republish it verbatim, and we do not link to hostile sources.

The site runs close to beta: we add, change and remove features, and the data refreshes automatically every day. We don't guarantee uninterrupted operation and may suspend or discontinue any part of the service. The service is free — there are no payments or subscriptions at this time.

The site is provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses arising from decisions taken on the basis of analysis published here, from the service being unavailable, or from errors in automatically generated conclusions. This does not limit liability that cannot be limited by law.

These terms are governed by the law of Ukraine. We would much rather resolve any dispute by correspondence: write to support.specialcat@gmail.com and we will answer.

We may update these terms — the date at the top always shows the current version. How we handle data is described in the Privacy Policy.
