6. Third Party Advertising and Links to Third Party Websites
6.1 There may be third party advertising posted on the Site from time to time which may contain links to third party web sites, frames and portals ("Third Party Sites"). You acknowledge and accept that E-consultancy does not exercise any review or editorial control over the content of such third party advertising whatsoever.
6.2 Accordingly, all E-consultancy's liability or responsibility for the content of such third party advertising on the Site and any damage it may cause is hereby disclaimed and excluded to the maximum extent permitted by law.
6.3 Furthermore, E-consultancy has not reviewed the content of Third Party Sites. E-consultancy is not responsible for the content or availability of these Third Party Sites. If you decide to use any link to a Third Party Site you leave the Site and you do so at your own risk. It is your sole responsibility to take all protective measures to guard against viruses or other destructive elements which may exist on those Third Party Sites.
6.4 Links to Third Party Sites in the third party advertising or otherwise on the Site does not imply that:
7.1 E-consultancy reserves the right to change the content, presentation, performance, user facilities and availability of any part of the Site at its sole discretion and without notice. It is the member's responsibility to refer to and update itself in relation to any changes made. Any such changes will become effective upon posting by E-consultancy.

7.4 E-consultancy makes no warranty as to the continuous availability of the Site, but shall use reasonable endeavours to keep down time to a minimum.
8. E-consultancy.com is only a Venue
8.1 Overview. The Site acts as a venue for online marketing and e-commerce professionals to interact, share information and opinions, and advertise ("the Services") including but not limited to posting information on the Site via forums and blogs (see clause 11 below) and advertising job vacancies (see clause 9 below). Although community members may choose to conduct business related communications and transactions through the site, E-consultancy is not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers. As a result, E-consultancy have no control over the quality, safety, truth, accuracy or legality of any products, items, vacancies, statements or services posted or offered, nor does E-consultancy have any ability whatsoever to warrant or guarantee the integrity of the providers or purchasers of such products, items, vacancies, statements or services. E-consultancy cannot ensure that any provider or purchaser will actually complete a transaction.
8.2 Member identities. Because identification and authentication on the Internet is difficult, E-consultancy cannot and does not confirm each member's purported identity. E-consultancy has established a member-initiated rating system to help you evaluate the quality of any individual's input and E-consultancy allows members to give access to information about themselves to other members. If you are in any doubt as to an individual's identity you are encouraged to attempt to communicate directly with that person to further establish their credentials.
8.3 Release. In the event that you have a dispute or issue with one or more of the other members, you shall release E-consultancy (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of any kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
8.4 Information Control. E-consultancy is designed to help members obtain online marketing and e-commerce information, advertise details of vacancies and to discuss online marketing and e-commerce issues. This information is sometimes provided by our members, many of whom use anonymous User IDs and are people we may have never met. Whilst the quality of material submitted to our Site is generally high, E-consultancy does not control the information provided by members, and you may find other member's information to be offensive, harmful, inaccurate, or deceptive. Please use caution and common sense when using our Site. Please note that there are also risks in dealing with foreign nationals, underage persons or people acting under false pretences including underage persons.
8.5 Furthermore, as you cannot be sure who any contributor really is, you should treat the contributors here in the same way that you would treat anyone you had come across for the first time. You should not rely upon the information you find at the Site but rather, you should use it as a starting point for doing independent research, then decide for yourself the accuracy and merits of the information that has been shared in our forum and on our Site including on the blogs section of the Site (see clause 11 below). As such E-consultancy cannot guarantee and gives no warranty as to the accuracy, veracity, or completeness of any such information provided.
8.6 The opinions expressed on this Site are those of the contributing individuals. If you act on anything that is said or done you must do so on the basis of a considered decision of your own, having weighed up the pros, cons and risks thereby fully accepting the responsibility for the success or failure of your actions. Under no circumstances shall E-consultancy be liable for direct, indirect, or incidental damages resulting from your use of information, commentary, advice or other content on the Site. You agree to indemnify E-consultancy against any actions, claims, proceedings, or liabilities arising from your use of the content of the Site.
9.1 Notwithstanding and subject to the remaining terms and conditions herein, the following conditions govern our acceptance of all orders for digital content in the form of advertisement(s) for job vacancies to be published on the Site ("Job Advert"). No Job Advert shall be accepted by us other than via the "Post a Job" submission procedure set out on the Site, and submitting a Job Advert via this process shall be deemed to be acceptance of these terms and conditions.
9.2 If you submit a Job Advert to us to publication on the Site, you warrant to us that the Job Advert:
9.3 E-consultancy shall carry out a manual review of each Job Advert submitted by you before it is published on the Site. E-consultancy reserves the right to amend, edit or abbreviate any Job Advert at our discretion. E-consultancy also reserves the right to refuse to publish any Job Advert for any reason, but particularly if it is in breach of clause 9.2 above.
9.4 Notwithstanding clause 9.3 above, it shall be entirely your responsibility to correctly and accurately post job details when buying a Job Advert via the "Post a Job" submission procedure set out on the Site. E-consultancy shall not be liable for any omissions, errors or inaccuracies in the information submitted. Accordingly, it is your responsibility to check Job Adverts and notify us of any omission, error or inaccuracy. E-consultancy will make reasonable efforts to make corrections to Job Adverts as notified to us by you but make no guarantee that such corrections will be made.
9.5 You acknowledge and accept that there may be technical downtime relating to the Job Advertising Service and that E-consultancy has no control over the Internet. Job Adverts may be attacked by viruses, worms, Trojan horses, cancelbots, or other harmful and destructive elements causing error. Such downtime or errors may prevent Job Adverts being viewed by users of the Site. E-consultancy shall not be liable if the publication of a Job Advert is delayed, prevented from access or displayed incorrectly by any cause beyond our control including server downtime and such destructive elements.
9.6 If you properly notify us of an error in the publication of a Job Advert deviating from the information provided to us by you in the "Post a Job" submission procedure set out on the Site, which materially detracts from the Job Advert, E-consultancy may at your request either:
9.7 In any event, our liability in relation to each Job Advert shall be limited to a sum equal to the amount paid to us for the Job Advert in question, and E-consultancy shall not be liable for any loss of or damage to any images or text provided to us by you when submitting the Job Advert.
9.8 You agree to pay the relevant fees, if any, set out on the Site for submission of each Job Advert. Fees set out on the Site may change from time to time and any change will be posted on the Site and will take effect for new Job Adverts submitted after the change. Payment for all Job Adverts must be prepaid in accordance with the payment methods set out on the Site, and no submission shall be deemed accepted until payment in full for the relevant Job Advert is received by us. Fees paid to us for posting Job Adverts shall be non-refundable.
9.9 You agree to indemnify us in respect of claims, damages or other charges incurred by us (whether direct or consequential) including legal costs arising from any action relating to publication of any Job Advert submitted by you on the Site.

10.2 Your Information and conduct (or any items listed therein) shall not:

E-consultancy may at any time, and at its sole discretion, terminate your membership without prior notice to you for violating the above provisions.
10.5 While E-consultancy cannot review all transmissions by members in the forum, we reserve the right to, and may from time to time, monitor any information transmitted or received through our service. E-consultancy, at our sole discretion and without further notice to you, may review, remove, or otherwise block any information (including posts to message boards, forums and blogs) that we deem inappropriate or that violates any of this agreement.
11.1 "Blogs" are essentially web pages containing information posted by the relevant creator of such web pages. Blogs are managed and edited by certain editors on the Site who are either freelance or guest editors of the blogs on the Site ("Independent Editors") and as such Independent Editors are not representatives of E-consultancy or its views.
11.2 E-consultancy does not control or edit any of the information or views set out by Independent Editors on any blog on the Site and accordingly E-consultancy does not warrant or guarantee the validity, accuracy or reliability for such information or views expressed by Independent Editors on the Site. E-consultancy does not endorse or advocate any of the information or views set out on any blog on the Site which are the views of the Independent Editors and not of E-consultancy.
11.3 E-consultancy provides an automatic procedure on the Site whereby members can submit a press release or story to the Independent Editors for posting to a blog on the Site. Furthermore, E-consultancy provides no warranty or guarantee whatsoever to any third party that any such information or accompanying images used by an Independent Editor on a blog on the Site are legitimately cleared for publication.
11.4 E-consultancy carries out no review nor does it exercise any editorial control over any blogs posted on the Site. E-consultancy does not vet or otherwise filter any submissions made to Independent Editors for inclusion in blogs on the Site. However, if an Independent Editor uses any story, press release or other material submitted by you for inclusion in a blog, E-consultancy reserves the right to delete it from the Site at E-consultancy's sole discretion and E-consultancy may refuse to publish any blog for any reason. Accordingly all E-consultancy's liability or responsibility for the content of blogs on the Site and any damage it may cause is hereby disclaimed and excluded to the maximum extent permitted by law subject that E-consultancy's maximum liability for such material shall be strictly limited to removing any material which is reasonably notified in writing to E-consultancy as infringing the rights of others or otherwise illegal.
11.5 You acknowledge the risk of intellectual property rights infringement and breach of confidentiality relating to any material you submit to the Independent Editors through the Site for inclusion in a blog on the Site, You, therefore, warrant and represent that you own all intellectual property rights in such material and that such material shall not:
11.6 You shall fully indemnify E-consultancy for any claims or damage (including legal costs) for any of the warranties set out in clause 11.5.
11.7 To enable E-consultancy to permit (un-reviewed) publication of the blogs of the Independent Editors on the Site, such that we are not violating any rights you have in that information or material, you agree to grant E-consultancy a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use the copyright, publicity and other intellectual property rights you have in such information and material for solely for the purpose of permitting its (un-reviewed) publication in Independent Editor's blogs on the Site.
11.8 If E-consultancy becomes aware that any material displayed on a blog on the Site is or may be in breach or probably breach any of the terms and conditions set out above it shall have the right to delete it in accordance with clause 11.4 above. Accordingly, we invite you to report to E-consultancy any material on a blog we you believe may breach the above terms and conditions.
12.1 You agree that you will not use any robot, spider, other automatic device, or manual process to monitor or copy our web pages or the content contained herein without the prior written consent of E-consultancy.
12.2 You agree that you will not use any device, software or routine to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the Site.
12.3 You agree that you will not take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on the Site's infrastructure.

You agree that you will not copy, reproduce, alter, modify, create derivative works, or publicly display any content (except for Your Information) from the Site without the prior written consent of E-consultancy or the appropriate third party, with the exception of downloading or printing a single copy for yourself for offline viewing.
13.1 You may not take any actions, which may undermine the integrity of the ratings system.
13.2 Export. You acknowledge that your rating consists of a composite number compiled by the aggregated ratings of other site users. Because ratings are not designed for any purpose other than for facilitating information searching for E-consultancy members, you agree that you shall not market or export your E-consultancy rating in any other venue.
13.3 Import. E-consultancy does not provide the technical ability to allow you to import ratings from other websites, as this does not reflect your true online reputation within our community.
14.1 Without limiting other remedies, E-consultancy may immediately issue a warning, temporarily suspend, indefinitely suspend or terminate your membership and refuse to provide the Services to you if:
15.1 By registering, you are agreeing that other members may make statements about your views, opinions or services which you regard as untrue. In any such case, if you contact E-consultancy, giving full details, E-consultancy will conduct a brief investigation and may remove the offending statement. Whether or not the offending statement is removed you hereby waive any right you might otherwise have against E-consultancy in connection with such statements. You accept that E-consultancy cannot control such statements and it is not practicable to conduct full, detailed, investigations. For more details on Privacy, please review our Privacy Policy.
16.1 The Site including, without limitation, its contents, functionality, performance and features are provided on an "as available basis" at the member's sole risk and without representations or warranties of any kind and to the full extent permitted by law. E-consultancy and other parties involved in creating, producing or delivering the Site expressly exclude all warranties, conditions or terms express or implied, statutory or otherwise including without limitation any warranty as to satisfactory quality or any warranty or commitment that access or use will be uninterrupted or error free.
17.1 Nothing in this agreement is intended to limit or exclude any liability on the part of E-consultancy where and to the extent that applicable law prohibits such exclusion or limitation.
17.2 Subject to the above statement and any clauses relating to limitation of liability elsewhere in these terms and conditions, in no event shall E-consultancy or its suppliers be liable for any: lost profits; lost sales; lost business; lost opportunity; lost information; lost anticipated savings; or special, indirect or consequential damages (however arising, including as a result of negligence) arising out of or in connection with this agreement including the Site or Services.
17.3 Accordingly, subject to clause 17.1, you agree not to bring a claim of any nature against E-consultancy in relation the use of or access to the Site and use or access to the Services, except where such a claim cannot be excluded by law. You acknowledge and agree that E-consultancy will have the right (subject to the discretion of the Court) to a stay of proceeding if you bring any claim against E-consultancy in breach of the foregoing.
17.4 E-consultancy shall not be liable or responsible in any way for any damage caused by any misuse of the Site by you or any third party, or caused by any Service.
17.5 E-consultancy shall be free to modify, temporarily suspend or cancel the Services and to reasonably amend these Terms and conditions at any time in writing which amendments will be deemed to be agreed by you upon using the Site and Services.

17.7 E-consultancy shall not be liable for orders for purchase of or subscriptions to Services which are made via the Site but are not received by E-consultancy for any reason, including but not limited to errors, disruption or downtime of Site which may, owing to corruption of data, lead to such orders/subscriptions being lost or which may lead to orders of/subscriptions to Services being submitted incomplete or with errors in which case such orders of/subscriptions to Services may need to be re-submitted.
18.1 You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless E-consultancy and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, and employees, from and against any claim, demand, liability, cost, damage or lost it may incur, including legal fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of this Agreement or the documents it incorporates by reference, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
19.1 You shall comply with all applicable laws, statutes, ordinances and regulations regarding your use of our service.
20.1 You agree that you and E-consultancy are independent contractors, and no agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchisor-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement.
21.1 All notices required to be served on E-consultancy shall be sent to the contact address stated in clause 1 or to the e-mail address of E-consultancy as set out in clause 1 or as otherwise notified on the Site from time to time for such purpose.

Any such controversy or claim shall be arbitrated on an individual basis, and shall not be consolidated in any arbitration with any claim or controversy of any other party. The arbitration shall be conducted in the U.K., and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered into any court having jurisdiction thereof. Either you or E-consultancy.com may seek any interim or preliminary relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in the U.K. necessary to protect the rights or property of you or us pending the completion of arbitration.
23.1 You acknowledge that the ownership in any intellectual property rights (including, for the avoidance of doubt, patents, copyright, rights in databases, trade marks and trade names whether registered or unregistered and subsisting anywhere in the World) in the Site belongs to E-consultancy or its third party licensors. Accordingly, any part of this Site (or its source HTML or any other code) may not be used, transferred, copied or reproduced in whole or in part in any manner other than for the purposes of utilising this Site and the Services, meaning that you may only display it on your computer screen and print it out on your printer for the sole purpose of viewing its content in connection with the Services.
23.2 Subject to the terms and conditions herein, copyright and all other intellectual property rights subsisting in each and every piece of information provided on the Site is owned by E-consultancy or the third party providers of such information. You may use information retrieved from the Site only for the purposes of the Services.
23.3 E-consultancy reserves the right in accordance with the licence granted under clause 10.3 to license and republish the material contributed by you.
23.4 No person other than the rightful owner or licensee of any copyright and other intellectual property rights may:
23.5 You agree and accept that E-consultancy may publish or otherwise distribute Your Information and you therefore grant to E-consultancy an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive right and licence to publish Your Information and all content contained therein on or within the Site, on any other media whatsoever and in its own advertising and promotion.
23.6 You therefore hereby undertake to E-consultancy to indemnify and hold harmless E-consultancy in full and defend at its own expense E-consultancy against all claims, liabilities, costs and losses whatsoever and howsoever incurred by E-consultancy its servants or nominees arising out of any claim made against it in any jurisdiction in the world for infringement of any intellectual property rights of any third party caused by your use of the Site and your Information.
23.7 E-consultancy, E-consultancy.com, the E-consultancy.com logo and the E-consultancy logo are trade names or trade marks of E-consultancy, the use of which is expressly forbidden by any other persons without the express permission of E-consultancy.

If you have any questions in relation to the use of any marks contained within the E-consultancy Services please contact E-consultancy at the address below.
24. Intellectual Property Infringement
24.1 Contributors might share messages and information that they have electronically copied from other sources. As there are many thousands of possible sources spread out across the Internet, ranging from newspapers to scientific journals to bulletin boards, it is impossible for E-consultancy to know if a posting or other content contribution infringes a third party's intellectual property right and to what degree.
24.2 If you believe that your intellectual property right has been infringed, it is your obligation to notify E-consultancy immediately. E-consultancy accepts no liability for copyright or trade mark infringement or any other infringement of a third party's intellectual property rights by any of its members though E-consultancy will endeavour to protect any rights owner through reasonably appropriate action should any infringement come to light.
25.1 This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of England and Wales as if the Agreement was a contract wholly entered into and wholly performed within England. The parties hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
25.2 If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck out of these Terms and Conditions and the remaining provisions shall remain in force. Headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section. E-consultancy's failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.
25.3 The laws of your country may be different from those of England and Wales in numerous respects. There is no practical way for E-consultancy to monitor the laws of every country in detail. Please do not assume that you are allowed to do what other members do. E-consultancy.com does not approve or validate transactions, advice or communications, and you accept sole responsibility for the legality of your actions under laws applying to you.
25.4 E-consultancy does not accept any obligation to protect you from any unsafe merchandise, products or services that may be offered on the Site. Please do not assume that such items offered will be harmless to people or property.
25.5 These rules are in addition to all others contained in the agreement. You are responsible for checking that your activities are all lawful according to the local laws in your country. If you and any other party are both based in the European Union and enter into a transaction agreement of any kind through the site then the seller's local law will govern further dealings as to shipment, payment etc. - unless you both explicitly agree otherwise.
25.6 Note however, that your country (and/or that of any member you deal with) may have some laws, which apply regardless of what you agree with us (now) or with that member (later).
