Section 01

Intellectual Property

All content published on ecuadormundohoy.com.ec —including articles, photographs, logos, and graphic design— is the exclusive property of Ecuador Mundo Hoy or its respective licensors. Reproduction, distribution, or modification of any material without prior written authorization from the media's management is prohibited.

This protection covers both the text of the reports and the images that accompany them, headlines, subheadings, and visual elements of the site. If a third party wishes to cite a fragment of our work, they must include the corresponding attribution and a link to the original publication.

The use of our content for commercial purposes —for example, republication on other portals, inclusion in corporate newsletters, or promotional material— requires an express license. Requests are channeled through the media's contact email. Unauthorized use may lead to the appropriate legal actions.

Section 02

Permitted Use of the Site

The user agrees to use the site solely for informational and lawful purposes. It is prohibited to use the portal for the distribution of spam, malicious content, or any activity that interferes with the proper functioning of the servers. Unauthorized access to restricted areas of the administrative system will be legally prosecuted.

The reader may browse the sections, share links on social media, and download articles for personal reading. What is not permitted is to use automated tools to extract content en masse, saturate the site with requests, or attempt to breach the portal's security measures.

Ecuador Mundo Hoy may temporarily suspend access to users who breach these rules, without prior notice. In the event of activities that compromise the site's infrastructure, it reserves the right to adopt the appropriate technical and legal measures.

Section 03

Content Responsibility

Ecuador Mundo Hoy strives to provide accurate and up-to-date information; however, it does not guarantee the absence of errors or omissions in the content. The media is not responsible for the interpretations or decisions that the user makes based on the published information, which is for informational and analytical purposes only.

Our publications are prepared from sources we consider reliable: news agencies, public documents, and statements from direct sources. Even so, data may change between the time of publication and the time of reading. When we identify an error, we correct it and, where appropriate, add a clarifying note.

Opinion articles reflect the perspective of their author and do not necessarily represent the editorial line of the media. We recommend cross-referencing information with additional sources before making any decision that depends on it.

Section 04

Links to Third-Party Sites

Our portal may contain links to external websites to expand information or cite sources. We have no control over the content, privacy policies, or practices of such third-party sites, and therefore we assume no responsibility for any damage or loss arising from their use.

External links are included for informational purposes: to allow the reader to verify the original source, access the full document, or delve deeper into the topic. The presence of a link does not imply endorsement, recommendation, or association with the destination site.

If a reader detects a link that leads to inappropriate content or that is no longer related to the cited article, they can report it to our contact email for review.

Section 05

User Comments and Participation

In the event that comment sections are enabled, the user is solely responsible for their opinions. We reserve the right to remove any comment that is offensive, defamatory, promotes hate, or contravenes current laws. Participation on the site must always take place within a framework of respect and tolerance.

The comment space exists to enrich public conversation: the reader can provide additional data, nuance what has been published, or share their perspective on the topic discussed. It is not a forum for insulting, defaming, or spreading false information. Comments containing unsolicited advertising or promotional links will also be removed.

Ecuador Mundo Hoy does not verify the identity of those who comment nor does it guarantee the veracity of their claims. The opinions expressed in the comments belong to their authors and do not represent the position of the media.

Section 06

Modifications and Jurisdiction

Ecuador Mundo Hoy reserves the right to modify these terms at any time without prior notice. Continued use of the site after changes implies acceptance of them. Any legal dispute related to the use of this portal will be resolved before the competent courts of the city of Quito, Ecuador.

Updates to the document are published on this same page with the revision date visible. We recommend that regular readers periodically review this text to stay informed of changes. When a modification is substantial, we will endeavor to highlight it on the portal.

These terms of service are governed by Ecuadorian legislation. If any clause is declared invalid by a competent court, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
