⚠️ Important Notes for the Test Period

pubgists is currently in a non-public test period. The following limitations apply during this phase:

  • Service interruptions: The service may be interrupted at any time without prior notice — e.g. for technical optimisations or infrastructure work.
  • Incomplete content: Not all government sources are crawled. Signals may be missing or assigned to the wrong theme.
  • Duplicate sends: The same newsletter issue may be delivered more than once during the test.
  • AI-generated content: Gist texts are produced with AI assistance and may contain factual errors, misinterpretations, or omissions. The linked source documents are always authoritative.
  • Source links: Links to original documents may be broken, behind a paywall, or point to outdated versions. pubgists is not responsible for the availability of external sources.
  • No delivery guarantee: Newsletter issues may arrive late, out of order, or not at all.
  • Data loss possible: Subscriber data (preferences, tier, delivery settings, history) may be reset or altered during the test without notice.
  • Free access: Access is free during the test period. Product prices, tier structure, and access conditions for regular operation have not yet been set and may differ substantially.
  • Feature changes: Features visible during the test may change, be removed, or behave differently in production. No feature creates an entitlement to its inclusion in the final product.
  • End of test: The test period may be ended, suspended, or continued under changed conditions at any time at the provider's discretion. Subscribers will be notified by email where possible.
  • Unsubscribe at any time: You can unsubscribe at any time via the unsubscribe link in every email or at pubgists.com/manage — no penalties, no data retention beyond the GDPR minimum.
