Disclaimer and terms of use
This website is published by the Sudan Policy Advisory Group (SPAG) to share its research, analysis and news, and to explain how the Association works. By using the site, you accept the terms below.
They explain the status of what we publish, the limits of our responsibility, and how you may use and share our content.
Views expressed
Whose position a publication represents.
Articles, analysis and commentary published under an author’s name reflect the views of that author, writing in a personal capacity. They do not necessarily reflect the official position of SPAG, its Executive Bureau, its members or the employers of the authors.
SPAG’s official positions are those adopted by its governing bodies and identified as such, for example in decisions of the General Assembly and in approved institutional policies.
Not professional advice
How to rely on what you read here.
Content on this website is provided for general information and research purposes. It is not legal, financial, investment or other professional advice, and should not be relied on as a substitute for advice suited to your circumstances.
Where SPAG provides technical advice to an institution, the terms of that engagement govern it, not this page.
Accuracy
Our commitment, and its limits.
We take reasonable care to ensure that information on this site is accurate and up to date, and we correct errors when we become aware of them, in line with our Research Ethics and Publication Integrity Policy. We cannot, however, guarantee that all content is complete, current or free of error.
Content is provided “as is”. Dated items, such as news and press releases, reflect the situation at the time of publication. If you notice an error, please tell us through the contact page.
External links
Sites we do not control.
This website links to external sites for the convenience of readers. SPAG does not control those sites and is not responsible for their content, availability or privacy practices. A link does not mean that SPAG endorses the site, its owner or its views.
Limitation of liability
Decisions based on our content.
To the extent permitted by law, SPAG accepts no liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of this website or from reliance on its content, including decisions taken or not taken on the basis of it. Nothing on this page limits any liability that cannot be excluded by law.
