Copyright in domain names:
Each of the domain names is © its respective owner as set out in the description of trademarks above. We claim that each of our domains is an artistic work and we are therefore entitled to full protection as a literary work. The layout of our sites is art and protected as such.

Links:
You may link to one or more of these sites but
- you may link to the first page only (eg. www.domain.com/)
- you are not permitted to put our content into a frame on your site
- you are not permitted to claim or imply that we endorse your product or service.

Legal:
The sites are for information only. It is not intended to provide legal advice in any circumstances. All persons are cautioned that they must take appropriate legal advice from a properly qualified lawyer or suitably experienced consultant in the relevant jurisdiction if they are in any way concerned that they may be affected by any of the issues raised on this or any Group website. Neither the author of any part of the sites, nor any of the publishing companies, intends to create any contractual relationship with nor duty of care towards any person who may avail themselves of the information on any of the sites. Conference papers and articles are the opinion of their authors and not necessarily of the publisher. Use of any Group site and any contract entered into for sale and purchase of goods or services from any such site shall be governed by English Law and any resultant proceedings shall be taken only in the Courts of England and Wales. Access to and use of this site shall be deemed to be agreement to these terms.

e-mail harvesting and unsolicited commercial mail:
The domain names and e-mail addresses associated with them are terms of art and therefore protected under copyright law. It follows that to harvest any address is prima facie a breach of the intellectual property of the relevant owner. Any person who harvests or purchases a harvested e-mail address and stores it on any computer, or replicates it in any unauthorised fashion breaches the intellectual property rights of the owner of that property. For each unsolicited e-mail for commercial purposes received at any of the domains, a charge will be made by the owner. The charge will be GBP1000 (plus UK tax where applicable) per mail we receive. We expressly deny the provisions of any law that says that the email is not spam if it meets certain requirements e.g. , a physical address and an opt-out. If we have not expressly requested and reconfirmed our wish to receive your marketing material, then to us it is spam and we reserve the right to publicise your use of such an abhorrent medium for marketing.

Screen grabs, etc:
It is forbidden to take any image of any page of any of the sites. If you do so, you will be charged GBP5000 per instance. UK VAT will be applied as appropriate. Furthermore, we will report your use of copyright material to your ISP and require them to remove all copyright material from their servers. This will almost certainly result in the closing of your service. We will seek injunctions and penal damages and criminal prosecution in the case of persistent offenders.

Refund Policy:
If you purchase a product from us it is sold firm. Refunds will be made only in the event of failure to deliver or short delivery. Any distance selling legislation is expressly excluded under our terms of contracting.

Language:

These sites are written in English. Users of variant English should recognise, therefore, that there may be differences in use of language. For example, in English, a thousand million is called a “milliard” or just “a thousand million”. A “billion” is one million to the power two - that is one million times one million. A “trillion” is one million to the power three. That’s an awful lot of noughts. 18, in fact. If someone “protests” something, it is to make a firm statement in support of it. If the statement is intended to oppose something the phrase is “protests against.” “Oversight” does not mean “supervision.”
