Our policy is quite clear - we respect the copyrights of our content providers and do everything in our power to drive traffic to them.
We currently take whatever is in the feeds. Some feeds (less than 5%) have the full content in the feed. In this case, we have a dilemma - what we've done is reach out to the feed providers to ask them what they want us to do. We offer the option of removing them from our site (no one has opted for that), revenue sharing on ads on that page, or we offer to do a bit of development to manually extract just the first paragraph. Its a bit more work on our part, and we'd rather not tinker with the feeds.
Until we figure out an optimal solution, we're not yet running ads on NewsCred (out of respect more than anything else). I've found that starting a dialogue with content producers is the best way forward, and 100% of those who we've reached out to have respected that.
