Terms of Service

Welcome to ProgRNA. By accessing or using progrna.com (the "Site"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. Editorial content is informational only

Articles, code snippets, workflow examples, and any other content on ProgRNA are provided for educational and informational purposes. They are not medical, clinical, regulatory, or professional advice. Do not use content on the Site to diagnose, treat, or manage any medical condition, or as a substitute for professional advice.

2. Research reproducibility disclaimer

Bioinformatics tools, versions, and best practices change quickly. While we strive for accuracy at the time of publication, we make no warranty that any command, script, or pipeline will run on your environment or reproduce a given result. Always validate on a controlled dataset before applying to production.

3. Intellectual property

Unless stated otherwise, articles on ProgRNA are © ProgRNA. Code blocks and example snippets embedded in articles are licensed under the MIT License unless otherwise marked. You may quote short excerpts with attribution and a link back to the original article. For commercial reproduction or translations, please contact us.

4. User submissions

If you submit content via the contact form or email (bug reports, corrections, story pitches), you grant ProgRNA a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to reference and, where appropriate, publish anonymized excerpts (e.g., corrections attributed to "a reader").

5. Advertising

ProgRNA is supported by display advertising, primarily via Google AdSense. Ads are clearly identifiable and separated from editorial content. Clicking an ad takes you to a third-party site over which we have no control.

• Using the Site to promote illegal or harmful activity.

8. Warranty disclaimer

The Site is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, ProgRNA and its editors are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Site or reliance on its content.
