Interactive Services
Where we do provide any interactive service
(including but not limited to the website forum), 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.
