Our Disclaimer
Guardnews.org is a self-generating entity that does not accept funding or offer any help to anyone who visits it. We are not a nonprofit organization, however, plans are in the works. A posted rescue group may or may not offer assistance in that particular afflicted geographical location. If a group has a website, we always contact them by e-mail, but sometimes we do not receive a response. If we do not receive a response we engage in online research. If we read about a particular group that is engaged in actual rescue operations in a valid newspaper article on the web, in social media, or other online reporting we will then make a donation if there is the means to do so (such as Paypal, GoFundMe, etc.), because some groups do not have the facility to respond by e-mail, or even have a website. And sometimes there is sadly no means to send them funds. We will make a notation about my research regarding a group (and sometimes we will not be able to do so), nevertheless, it is your responsibility to contact these groups or verify them online before making a donation to find out if indeed they are helping animals — so we assume no responsibility and no financial burden for your decision. There is one exception that we gladly make regarding assistance, as we will post any pleas for help for financing or resources from local volunteer animal rescue groups, whether they are in a disaster area or not. We sometimes do not have the means to check whether these submissions are accurate, but we will try to validate their authenticity. Again, it is your responsibility to contact these groups in order to make an informed decision. We do not offer any technical support that may include any electronic products, software, or attempt to solve specific problems with anything on our website. The Internet is a good source for freely available technical support, where experienced users may provide advice and assistance with any given problem. There are also fee-based service companies that charge for technical support services.
