Is there anything I may NOT publish in the PD newsletter?
Please review the Published Daily Terms of Use & Privacy Policy for restricted content. Also, the banner ads you choose to upload and display alongside your articles must not advertise for any service that is likely to be competitive with the PD members in your category. For example, if you are a doctor in private practice who is also a PD writer for the Health category, your banner ads can advertise your books, CDs, or other intellectual property offerings, but not for the medical services that you offer in private practice. Advertising for your medical services would be directly competitive with the doctors who subscribe to content from the health category of PD. On the other hand, advertising your books, CDs and other intellectual property offerings is not directly competitive.
