Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 26 June 2026
These terms apply when you access or use COLD//RIOT, a London-rooted editorial platform covering streetwear, fashion, music, tattoo, art, nightlife, culture, events and guides.
1. Using the site
You may use COLD//RIOT for reading, research and discovery. You agree not to misuse the site, attempt to disrupt it, scrape it at scale, copy large parts of it, interfere with security, or use it in a way that breaches applicable law.
2. Editorial content
Our articles, guides, rankings, event coverage, recommendations and cultural commentary are provided for general information and editorial purposes only. They are not professional, financial, legal, medical, safety or investment advice.
We aim for accuracy and fairness, but culture moves quickly and information can change. You should check key facts directly with official sources, brands, venues, event organisers, retailers or other relevant parties before relying on them.
3. Use of agentic modelling systems
COLD//RIOT may use agentic models, agentic research tools, automated monitoring, drafting systems, summarisation tools and editorial workflow agents to support research, ideation, drafting, fact-checking, formatting, tagging, SEO, image review and publishing operations.
We operate a human-led editorial process and aim to run quality assurance before publishing. However, agentic modelling systems can occasionally produce errors, omissions, outdated information, misinterpretations or hallucinations. We do not guarantee that every statement on the site is complete, current or error-free. Readers should independently verify important information before acting on it.
4. Corrections
If you believe something on COLD//RIOT is inaccurate, misleading, misattributed or missing important context, please use the contact route provided on the site. We may update, correct, clarify or remove content at our discretion.
5. Intellectual property
Unless otherwise stated, the site design, brand name, logos, editorial copy, original graphics, layouts and other original material on COLD//RIOT are owned by or licensed to us. You may link to our articles and quote short extracts with clear credit, but you must not reproduce, republish, sell, remix or exploit substantial parts of the site without permission.
Third-party trademarks, brand names, imagery, products and references belong to their respective owners. Their appearance on COLD//RIOT does not imply endorsement, approval or affiliation unless clearly stated.
6. Images, video and third-party media
We may use original, licensed, submitted, embedded, press, supplied or otherwise permissioned media. Where we embed or link to third-party media, that media may be governed by the third party's own terms and policies.
If you are a rights holder and believe material has been used incorrectly, please use the contact route provided on the site with details of the work, the URL and proof of ownership or authority.
7. Submissions, tips and contributions
If you send us tips, event details, images, press materials, products, comments, pitches or other submissions, you confirm that you have the right to share them and that they do not infringe anyone else's rights. Unless we agree otherwise in writing, you give us permission to review, edit, quote, publish, archive and promote submitted material in connection with COLD//RIOT.
We are not obliged to publish, return, pay for or keep confidential unsolicited submissions unless we have separately agreed to do so.
8. Events, venues and external activity
COLD//RIOT may cover, list or discuss events. Unless clearly stated, event listings are informational only and we are not responsible for changes, cancellations, entry decisions, safety, venue conduct, age restrictions, ticketing terms or third-party event policies.
9. External links
The site may link to third-party sites, shops, social platforms, ticketing pages, maps, videos or other services. We are not responsible for their content, availability, security, privacy practices, pricing or terms.
10. Newsletter and accounts
If you sign up for a newsletter, event list or similar service, you must provide accurate information and only use email addresses you control. You can unsubscribe from emails using the link in our emails or by contacting us through the route provided on the site.
11. Liability
Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under UK law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, COLD//RIOT is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We are not liable for indirect loss, loss of opportunity, loss of data, reputational loss, interruption or losses caused by reliance on editorial content, third-party links, events, retailers, products, agentic model outputs or unavailable site features.
