Terms of Use

1. Using IQMIA

IQMIA offers source-linked, AI-assisted news summaries, editorial stories and professional Spotlight features. You may browse public pages and share links to them. You are responsible for using the site lawfully and for any information you choose to submit.

News and editorial content is provided for general information. It is not professional, legal, financial, engineering or other specialist advice, and you should consult original sources where accuracy or completeness is important.

2. Accounts and access

Some features, including submitting a Spotlight story, require authentication through QAuth. You are responsible for lawful use of your account and for maintaining the security of your sign-in methods. Access may be restricted where necessary to protect users, enforce these terms or comply with applicable law.

3. Submitting a Spotlight story

You may submit text, links, images and other supporting material for IQMIA's editorial consideration. You agree to provide information you reasonably believe to be accurate and not misleading, and not to submit confidential, private or unlawful material without authorization.

Submission does not guarantee publication. IQMIA may research, fact-check, summarize, edit, decline or remove submissions under its editorial rules. Contributors do not automatically have approval rights over published wording. Corrections and removal requests are handled under the Spotlight editorial policy.

4. Rights in submitted text and images

You retain ownership of material that belongs to you. By submitting text, images or documents, you confirm that you own them or have permission to allow IQMIA to use them, including relevant permissions relating to recognizable people.

You grant IQMIA a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to reproduce, host, format, edit for presentation, and display submitted material in connection with its editorial stories, related summaries and Spotlight editions. Images may be resized or cropped without materially misrepresenting their content. You must identify required credits and restrictions, and obtain permission before submitting third-party content. IQMIA may decline material where rights are unclear.

5. Original sources and external services

IQMIA links to original publishers and other websites for attribution and further reading. Those third parties control their own content and terms. Unless explicitly indicated otherwise, an IQMIA summary does not mean its source publisher endorses IQMIA or its editorial judgment.

6. Corrections, takedowns and responsible use

You may report factual errors or request a review of material using the relevant article's correction or removal process. IQMIA evaluates such requests in light of the supplied evidence, editorial policy and applicable rights. Repeated misuse, impersonation, attempts to bypass access controls or submissions that infringe others' rights are not permitted.

7. Service availability and changes

IQMIA may adjust its editorial features, published collections and technical services. We cannot promise uninterrupted availability or that every automatically prepared summary will be error-free. We may revise these terms, with the revised version published on this page.

8. Privacy and contact

For information about accounts, Google sign-in, cookies and editorial data processing, see the Privacy Policy. For questions about these terms, contact iqmiamail@gmail.com.
