 ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY

PROHIBITED USES

You may use our site only for lawful purposes.  You may not use our

site:

1 In any way that breaches any applicable local, national or

international law or regulation.

2 In any way that is unlawful or fraudulent, or has any unlawful or

fraudulent purpose or effect.

3 For the purpose of harming or attempting to harm minors in any way.

4 To send, knowingly receive, upload, download, use or re-use any

CONTENT STANDARDS below].

5 To transmit, or procure the sending of, any unsolicited or

unauthorised advertising or promotional material or any other form of

similar solicitation (spam).

6 To knowingly transmit any data, send or upload any material that

INTERACTIVE SERVICES

We may from time to time provide interactive services on our site,

including, without limitation [the blog and the events page].  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.

 

CONTENT STANDARDS

These content standards apply to any and all material which you

contribute to our site (contributions), and to any interactive services

associated with it.

You must comply with the spirit of the following standards as well as

the letter. The standards apply to each part of any contribution as

well as to its whole.

Contributions must:

1 be accurate (where they state facts).

2 be genuinely held (where they state opinions).

3 comply with applicable law in the UK and in any country from which

they are posted.

Contributions must not:

1 contain any material which is defamatory of any person;

2 contain any material which is obscene, offensive, hateful or

inflammatory;

3 promote sexually explicit material;

4 promote violence;

5 promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality,

example only) copyright infringement or computer misuse.

of this acceptable use policy through your use of our site.  When a

breach of this policy has occurred, we may take such action as we

any of the following actions:

1 immediate, temporary or permanent withdrawal of your right to use

our site;
