Terms of Use

Last updated: October 8, 2026

1. The service

Chronicle offers date searches of catalogued historical records, historical stories and source links for reading, learning and research. Please follow applicable laws and these terms when using the site.

2. Scope and accuracy

Historical accounts can differ because of sources, names, time zones and calendars. These summaries do not replace original records or specialist research. An empty result means no matching entry has been catalogued.

3. Content and image licences

Third-party text and images retain their original licences. Consult Sources & Credits for the text licence, individual image creators and source links. When quoting or redistributing material, retain the attribution, source and licence information required by the applicable licence.

4. Responsible use

Do not damage the service, distribute malicious software, infringe other people’s rights or present summaries as primary historical documents. Feedback should relate to this archive and avoid unrelated personal information.

5. External links

Source links support verification and further reading. Third-party pages may change, become unavailable or present different interpretations. Chronicle does not control their content or services.

6. Changes and feedback

We may update the collection, features and these terms, with an updated date shown on the page. Use the contact page to prepare reports about factual errors, copyright or use of the service.
