II. Subject Areas We Cover

TechPolicyLaw.org welcomes contributions on any theme at the intersection of technology, law and policy, including data protection and privacy, artificial intelligence and emerging technology, platform and competition regulation, cybersecurity and national security, digital trade and investment, intellectual property, digital public infrastructure, and the broader regulatory and commercial consequences of technology for business and society. We welcome pieces across this range so long as they are grounded in law or regulation rather than pure commentary. We do not publish purely theoretical or academic pieces disconnected from applied legal or policy consequence. Submissions should speak to practitioners and policymakers engaging with real decisions under current law.​

III. Format and Editorial Standards
 

1. Submissions should run approximately 1000 to 2,500 words, written for a policy literate, and both academic and non academic audience.

2. Statutory and regulatory citations must be accurate and current as of the date of submission. Contributors are responsible for verifying that cited provisions have not been amended, repealed or superseded.

3. Writing should be declarative and precise. We favour clear analytical prose over rhetorical flourish and avoid informal shorthand in place of substantive argument.

4. Hyperlinked sourcing to primary material, such as statutes, judgments, notifications and official releases, is preferred over footnotes.

5. Where a piece takes a position, that position must be clearly reasoned and distinguished from settled legal fact.

6. Pieces should avoid assuming a single jurisdictional vantage point as the default. When referencing India specific developments, contributors should identify the jurisdiction explicitly rather than using unqualified references.
    

IV. Submission Process
 
Contributors may submit work by email to [submissions@techpolicylaw.org]. Submissions should be sent as an attached document or included in the body of the email, along with the following.
 

1. The completed draft, in text or document form.

2. A short summary of the piece, stating its relevance, timeliness and connection to current regulatory or legal developments.

3. A brief author biography, of two to three sentences, along with any professional affiliation relevant to the subject matter.

4. Disclosure of any conflict of interest, funding relationship or affiliation that bears, or could reasonably be perceived to bear, on the subject of the piece.
    

We consider completed drafts rather than pitches or proposals. Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis, and editorial decisions on acceptance, rejection or requested revision rest with TechPolicyLaw.org.

V. Use of AI in Submissions

Contributors may use AI tools to support research, drafting or analysis, provided such use is disclosed to the editors and the resulting content is independently reviewed for legal accuracy by the contributor. Submissions that are substantially generated by AI tools without independent legal review and verification will not be accepted.

VI. Rights, Compensation and Independence
 

1. Contribution to TechPolicyLaw.org grants the platform the right to publish the piece. Contributors retain the right to republish elsewhere with clear attribution to TechPolicyLaw.org and a link to the original publication.

2. TechPolicyLaw.org does not compensate contributors at this time.

3. Views expressed in contributed pieces are those of the author and do not represent the views of TechPolicyLaw.org or any affiliated entity, including Trailblazer Advocates.
