Disclaimer

Last Updated: March 13, 2026

Welcome to Koshur Dude (https://www.koshurdude.in). By accessing or using our website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this disclaimer. If you do not agree with any part of this disclaimer, you must not use our website.

1. The Nature of Our Content

Koshur Dude is an independent digital platform publishing news, data breakdowns, fact-checks, satirical commentary, and public domain works that we cite or publish. All content is provided for general informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only. While we employ strict research methodologies, the digital landscape moves fast. We make no absolute guarantees regarding the real-time completeness, reliability, or flawless accuracy of the data presented. Any reliance you place on our reporting is strictly at your own risk.

2. The Satire Shield (Read Carefully)

A dedicated pillar of Koshur Dude is satire and social commentary. Articles, social media posts, or newsletters explicitly categorized or tagged as “Satire” are works of fiction and humor. They use exaggeration, parody, and irony to critique the internet and society. They are not factual news reports and must never be misconstrued as such. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events in these specific pieces is purely for comedic or critical effect. If you take a satirical piece out of context and present it as fact, that is your liability, not ours.

3. Views and Opinions

Articles categorized as ‘Editorials,’ ‘Op-Eds,’ or guest contributions represent the personal views of the specific author. They do not necessarily reflect the official stance, policies, or opinions of the Koshur Dude editorial board.

4. Fact-Checking & OSINT Limitations

Our fact-checking desk relies on publicly available data, digital forensics, and established verification tools available at the exact time of publication. Information, public records, social media posts can be altered, deleted, or updated by third parties after we publish. We are not liable for decisions made based on data that has naturally evolved or been obscured post-publication.

5. Social Media & User-Generated Content

While user comments are disabled on the Koshur Dude website, we maintain active profiles on third-party social media platforms. Koshur Dude, its publishers, and its editorial board are not legally responsible for the comments, replies, or content posted by external users on our social media channels. We reserve the right to moderate or delete third-party comments that violate local laws or community guidelines, but we assume no legal obligation to monitor all user-generated content.

6. External Sourcing & Links

Due to the nature of news posting, data breakdowns and fact-checking, we frequently link to external datasets, archives, social media posts, and third-party reports. We do not control these external sites. Linking to a source—especially to debunk it or analyze it—does not constitute an endorsement of that site’s overall views, security practices, or privacy policies. We recommend that you review the terms and conditions and privacy policies of any external sites you visit.

7. Financial & Professional Advice

Nothing published on Koshur Dude constitutes professional legal, financial, medical, or security advice. Even when we cover topics like digital privacy or local economics, it is analytical commentary, not a substitute for certified professional consultation.

8. Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances shall Koshur Dude, its publishers, its editorial board, or its contributors be held legally or financially liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of this website. This includes, but is not limited to, data loss, financial loss, or reputational damage resulting from the consumption, misinterpretation, or republication of our content.

9. Fair Use & Copyright

Koshur Dude frequently utilizes publicly available images, screenshots, short video clips, and text excerpts for the purposes of reporting, criticism, satire, and fact-checking. This constitutes ‘Fair Dealing’ under Section 52 of the Indian Copyright Act, 1957. All rights to third-party content remain with their respective owners. If you are a copyright holder and believe your work has been used beyond the scope of fair dealing, please contact us for review.

10. Third-Party Advertising & Affiliates

Koshur Dude utilizes display advertising and may occasionally use affiliate links. We do not independently verify the claims made by third-party advertisers in their automated banner ads, nor are we responsible for the fulfillment of any products or services you purchase from them.

11. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

This disclaimer and your use of Koshur Dude shall be governed strictly by the laws of India. Any legal disputes, claims, or proceedings arising out of or related to this website shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts located in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir.

12. Amendments

We reserve the right to modify, update, or overhaul this disclaimer at any time without prior individual notice. Your continued use of the platform after changes are published constitutes your legally binding acceptance of the updated terms.
