You must not attack our site via a denial-of-service attack or a dis­trib­uted denial-of ser­vice attack.

By breach­ing the above pro­vi­sion, you would com­mit a crim­i­nal offence under the Com­puter Mis­use Act 1990. We will report any such breach to the rel­e­vant law enforce­ment author­i­ties and we will co-operate with those author­i­ties by dis­clos­ing your iden­tity to them. In the event of such a breach, your right to use our site will cease immediately.

We will not be liable for any loss or dam­age caused by a dis­trib­uted denial-of-service attack, viruses or other tech­no­log­i­cally harm­ful mate­r­ial that may infect your com­puter equip­ment, com­puter pro­grams, data or other pro­pri­etary mate­r­ial due to your use of our site or to your down­load­ing of any mate­r­ial posted on it, or on any web­site linked to it.

Inter­ac­tive ser­vices

Where we pro­vide any inter­ac­tive ser­vices on our site, such as blogs, chat rooms, bul­letin boards or the abil­ity to post ‘tweets’, we will pro­vide clear infor­ma­tion to you about the kind of ser­vice offered, if it is mod­er­ated and what form of mod­er­a­tion is used (includ­ing whether it is human or technical).

We will do our best to assess any pos­si­ble risks for users (and in par­tic­u­lar, for chil­dren) from third par­ties when they use any inter­ac­tive ser­vice pro­vided on our site, and we will decide in each case whether it is appro­pri­ate to use mod­er­a­tion of the rel­e­vant ser­vice (includ­ing what kind of mod­er­a­tion to use) in the light of those risks.

How­ever, we are under no oblig­a­tion to over­see, mon­i­tor or mod­er­ate any inter­ac­tive ser­vice we pro­vide on our site, and we expressly exclude our lia­bil­ity for any loss or dam­age aris­ing from the use of any inter­ac­tive ser­vice by a user in con­tra­ven­tion of our con­tent stan­dards, whether the ser­vice is mod­er­ated or not.

The use of any of our inter­ac­tive ser­vices by a minor is sub­ject to the con­sent of their par­ent or guardian. We advise par­ents who per­mit their chil­dren to use an inter­ac­tive ser­vice that it is impor­tant that they com­mu­ni­cate with their chil­dren about their safety online, as mod­er­a­tion is not fool­proof. Minors who are using any inter­ac­tive ser­vice should be made aware of the poten­tial risks to them.

Where we do mod­er­ate an inter­ac­tive ser­vice, we will nor­mally pro­vide you with a means of con­tact­ing the mod­er­a­tor, should a con­cern or dif­fi­culty arise.

Con­tents stan­dards

Where you con­tribute any mate­ri­als to our site or any of its inter­ac­tive ser­vices your con­tri­bu­tions must:

Be accu­rate (where they state facts), be gen­uinely held (where they state opin­ions) and com­ply with applic­a­ble law in the UK and in any coun­try from which they are posted.

Not con­tain any defam­a­tory, obscene, offen­sive, hate­ful or inflam­ma­tory material.

Not pro­mote vio­lence, sex­u­ally explicit mate­r­ial or dis­crim­i­na­tion based on race, sex, reli­gion, nation­al­ity, dis­abil­ity, sex­ual ori­en­ta­tion or age.

Not infringe any copy­right, data­base right or trade mark or other intel­lec­tual prop­erty rights of any third party.

Not be in breach of any con­trac­tual, pri­vacy or other right of any per­son or other legal entity.

Not be threat­en­ing, abu­sive or illegal.

Not be used to imper­son­ate any per­son or to mis­rep­re­sent iden­tity or affil­i­a­tion with any person.

Sus­pen­sion and ter­mi­na­tion

We will deter­mine, in our dis­cre­tion, whether there has been any use of our terms through your use of our site and where a breach has occurred we may take action as we deem appro­pri­ate. Such action may include with­drawal of your right to use our site, legal pro­ceed­ings against you and dis­clo­sure of infor­ma­tion to law enforce­ment agencies.

Link­ing to our site

You may link to our home page, if you do so in a fair and legal way which does not dam­age our rep­u­ta­tion or take advan­tage of it, but you must not estab­lish a link in such a way as to sug­gest any form of asso­ci­a­tion, approval or endorse­ment on our part where none exists.

You must not estab­lish a link from any web­site that is not owned by you. Our site must not be framed on any other site, nor may you cre­ate a link to any part of our site other than the home page.

We have no con­trol over the con­tents of those sites or resources, and accept no respon­si­bil­ity for them or for any loss or dam­age that may arise from your use of them.
