Terms of use

awoop is an online open-content collaborative linksdatabase, that is, a voluntary association of individuals and groups working to develop a common resource of popular links.

The structure of the project allows anyone with an Internet connection to register and publish their own links. Please be advised that nothing found here has necessarily been reviewed by people with the expertise required to provide you with complete, accurate or reliable information. That is not to say that you will not find valuable and accurate information in awoop; much of the time you will. However, awoop cannot guarantee the validity of the information found here.

The content of any given link may recently have been changed, vandalized or altered by the owner or moderator whose opinion does not correspond with the posted description or naming on awoop. No formal peer review, We are working on ways to select and highlight reliable links and descriptions. Our active community of editors monitors new and changing content. However, awoop is not uniformly peer reviewed; while readers may correct errors or engage in casual peer review, they have no legal duty to do so and thus all information read here is without any implied warranty of fitness for any purpose or use whatsoever.
