Varsity

Many thanks for your enquiry.

We can run sponsored articles on varsity.co.uk depending on the nature of the articles submitted and links required, however we do charge for this..

Remember, we are not a "blog" - we are registered in the UK as a newspaper (and go to print weekly too!) so we are therefore subject to strict scrutiny by the UK Trading Standards office and the UK ASA with this regard; in short - we will not break the law for you by "disguising" paid content as anything than what it exactly is; as a newspaper we've been publishing continuously in the UK since 1947 and we want it to stay that way!

We do not write content for you. We do not offer promotions on our social media. We do not offer link insertions in existing articles.

All articles display and rotate through on the front page of our website in our Features section only.

Gambling/casino sites etc are fine, provided they comply with UK advertising rules and UK law. Please note that as of August 2022 we have been advised by the UK Gambling Commission that all gambling sites that we link to, must be registered with the UK Gambling Commission by law. If you are in doubt that you or your client(s) are registered in the UK - you can check the register here: https://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/public-register/businesses/ . To be clear,  By sending us your order for sponsored content to be published on our site, you are warranting that any link you supply at the time of the order (or any edit you make to the link(s) on the content that we link to) complies with current UK law and that you will keep us fully indemnified against all losses and all actions, claims, proceeding costs and damages (including any damages or compensations paid by us on the advice of our legal advisers in settlement of any claim) and all legal costs and other expenses including interest arising out of any breach by you. In addition, please note that post-publication if we receive advice from the UK Gambling Commission that your content on our site, or a site that we link to you on your behalf is unregistered then your content on our site is liable to be removed without notice and no refund will be given. Please also note the established "Please gamble responsibly" or similar established UK advertising industry warnings plus an additional link to a suitable UK gambling addiction/support advice group will be placed at the end of the article.

Dating sites are fine - adult/explicit dating sites along with paid sex, adult content/pornographic sites are not OK of course!
