Terms of Service

The rules of the road for using OGLS. Last updated June 2026.

By using offgridlivingsurvival.com, subscribing to the newsletter, or advertising with us, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the service.

The service

OGLS provides a free daily email newsletter, a magazine library, news and blog content, and a self-serve advertising platform. We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service at any time.

Your account

Accounts are passwordless — we email you a secure sign-in link. Keep your email account secure; anyone with access to it can sign in as you. You're responsible for activity under your account and for providing accurate information.

Acceptable use

  • Don't misuse the service, attempt to disrupt it, or access it through unauthorized means.
  • Don't scrape, resell, or redistribute our content without permission.
  • Don't submit unlawful, infringing, deceptive, or harmful material.

Advertising

  • Ads are self-serve at the published flat daily rates. We review every ad before it runs and may decline or remove any ad at our discretion.
  • You are responsible for the accuracy, legality, and rights to all creative and claims in your ads.
  • Payments are processed by our third-party payment provider. Booked placements are generally non-refundable once a campaign has started; if we cancel or fail to run a paid placement, we'll refund or credit the affected days.
  • Performance metrics are provided for your convenience and are estimates, not guarantees of results.

Content & intellectual property

Our newsletter curates and links to third-party sources with our own commentary; all linked articles and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Our original content, branding, and design are owned by OGLS and may not be copied without permission.

No professional advice

Our content covers off-grid living, survival, energy, and related topics for general informational purposes only. It is not professional, medical, legal, financial, or safety advice. Self-reliance and survival activities carry real risk — always use your own judgment, follow local laws and codes, and consult qualified professionals. You act on the information at your own risk.

Disclaimers & limitation of liability

The service is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, OGLS is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service.

Changes

We may update these terms from time to time; the "last updated" date above reflects the latest version. Continued use means you accept the changes.
