Unless otherwise noted, you can republish our articles for free under a Creative Commons license. Here’s what you need to know:

• You have to credit Tradeoffs and any co-reporting partners. In the byline, we prefer “Author Name, Publication(s).” At the top of the text of your story, include a line that reads: “This story was originally published by Tradeoffs.” You must link the word “Tradeoffs” to the original URL of the story.
• If you’re republishing online, you must link to the URL of this story on Tradeoffs.org, include all of the links from our story, including our newsletter sign up language and link, and include our tracking pixel.
• If you use canonical metadata, please use the Tradeoffs URL.
• You can’t edit our material, except to reflect relative changes in time, location and editorial style. (For example, “yesterday” can be changed to “last week,” and “Portland, Ore.” to “Portland” or “here.”)
• You cannot republish our photographs or illustrations without specific permission. Please contact info@tradeoffs.org.
• It’s OK to put our stories on pages with ads, but not ads specifically sold against our stories. You can’t state or imply that donations to your organization support our work.
• You have no rights to sell, license, syndicate, or otherwise represent yourself as the authorized owner of our material to any third parties. This means that you cannot actively publish or submit our work for syndication to third party platforms or apps like Apple News or Google News. Tradeoffs understands that publishers cannot fully control when certain third parties automatically summarize or crawl content from publishers’ own sites.
• You can’t republish our material wholesale, or automatically; you need to select stories to be republished individually. (To inquire about syndication or licensing opportunities, please contact us at info@tradeoffs.org.)
• You can’t use our work to populate a website designed to improve rankings on search engines or solely to gain revenue from network-based advertisements.
• We do not generally permit translation of our stories into another language.
• Any website our stories appear on must include a prominent and effective way to contact you.
• If you share republished stories on social media, we’d appreciate being tagged in your posts. We have official accounts for @Tradeoffs on Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, and Spotify.
• You can grab HTML code for our stories easily. Click on the Republish This Story button at the bottom of the story you'd like to republish.
