Tribuna.kz respects the copyrights and intellectual property rights of third parties and operates in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan, applicable international treaties, and the terms governing the use of materials from original sources.

2. Sources of Information

The primary sources of information used by Tribuna.kz include:

Official websites of governments and public authorities in various countries.
Websites of ministries, parliaments, and government institutions.
Official press releases, statements, and public announcements.
Information resources of international organizations.
Other publicly accessible sources of information.

When publishing news, Tribuna.kz identifies the original source and, where technically possible, provides a link to the original publication.

Independently prepared summaries of news and factual information.
Quotations from official statements within the limits permitted by applicable law.
Translations and adaptations of materials where such use is authorized by the rights holder, a license, or applicable law.
Full texts of official documents and other materials that may lawfully be reproduced.

Publication of material on an official government website does not automatically mean that it is free from copyright protection or available for unrestricted reuse.

Acknowledging the original source does not replace the need to obtain permission from the rights holder where such permission is legally required.

4. Translations and Automated Processing

Tribuna.kz uses modern information technologies, including automated systems and artificial intelligence tools, to collect, process, analyze, and translate information.

Materials undergo editorial review before publication.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, translations prepared by Tribuna.kz are unofficial.

Tribuna.kz is not an official representative of the government authorities or organizations whose information is referenced in its publications.

5. Copyright in Tribuna.kz Materials

Original articles, analytical reviews, editorial texts, original illustrations, graphic elements, designs, and other creative works produced specifically for Tribuna.kz are protected under the copyright laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan where the applicable legal requirements for protection are met.

Exclusive economic rights to such materials belong to the owner of Tribuna.kz where the materials were personally created by the owner or the relevant rights have been lawfully transferred to the owner.

Copying, reproducing, distributing, translating, adapting, or commercially using copyright-protected Tribuna.kz materials requires permission from the relevant rights holder, except where otherwise permitted by applicable law or licenses.

When quoting Tribuna.kz materials, users must comply with applicable legal requirements, including attribution of the author and source where required.

6. Photographs, Videos, and Graphic Materials

Photographs, videos, illustrations, logos, infographics, and other visual materials may be protected by copyright or other intellectual property rights, regardless of whether they appear on official government websites.

Tribuna.kz uses such materials where an appropriate legal basis exists.

Rights to third-party images and other materials remain with their lawful owners.

Acknowledging the source of an image does not, by itself, constitute permission to use it.

7. Tribuna.kz Name and Visual Identity

The Tribuna.kz name, logo, original design elements, and other identifiers are used to identify the website.

The legal protection of these elements is governed by the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan, including copyright and trademark legislation.

Use of the Tribuna.kz name or visual identity must not create a misleading impression of official representation, partnership, or affiliation with the project.

Tribuna.kz provides links to official government websites, international organizations, and other external information resources.

The inclusion of such links does not imply official cooperation, partnership, endorsement, or approval by the respective organizations.
