Terms

Reading this site means accepting the position stated here: it is an independent information publication, and it does not decide whether any particular incident was classified correctly or any particular institution complies.

Information, not a promise

Guides explain campus safety duties and the evidence behind them in general terms. They are general information, not legal advice, not a compliance audit and not a guarantee that any institution complies. Compliance depends on the incident, its location, its category and the institution's own policies; a step that suits one institution may not suit another, which is why every guide teaches the file alongside the duty.

Not a reporting channel

This site does not receive incident reports and does not provide emergency help. Anyone in danger should contact campus security or local emergency services immediately, and anyone reporting an incident should use their institution's own channels.

Accuracy and dates

Every guide carries the date its evidence was last checked. Law is revised and official guidance changes; a guide is a dated snapshot of a checked position, and its checking date tells you how current the snapshot claims to be. Figures quoted from official sources belong to their publishers and are attributed. We correct errors openly on the corrections page.

Reuse

Short quotations with a link back are welcome. Republishing whole guides is not permitted without written permission.
