Terms of Service

Effective date: 2026-04-18 · Last updated: 2026-04-18

The newsletter

Setpoint is an independent publication delivered by email on a weekly cadence. Content is editorial opinion and public-information analysis. It is not professional advice — engineering, legal, financial, safety, or otherwise. Make your own engineering decisions with appropriate professional review.

Editorial independence

Setpoint is an independent publication, unaffiliated with and unendorsed by the editor's current or past employers. All opinions are the editor's own. Sponsored sections are clearly labeled and do not influence editorial coverage.

Content & copyright

Issues are © Setpoint. You may share, forward, and quote brief excerpts with attribution. You may not republish full issues or create derivative newsletters without written permission.

Liability

Setpoint is provided "as is." We do not warrant accuracy, completeness, or fitness for a particular purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Setpoint is not liable for damages arising from use of, or reliance on, anything published.

Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be communicated in a published issue. Continued subscription after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States.
