Terms of Use
Welcome. These terms explain the ground rules for using this website. They are written in plain English so you know exactly where you stand. Please take a few minutes to read them before you continue browsing.
Agreeing to these terms
By visiting or using any part of this site, you confirm that you accept these terms. If you do not agree with them, please stop using the site. You should also be old enough to enter into a binding agreement where you live.
How you may use the site
You are welcome to read, share and refer to our content for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. In return, we ask that you do not:
- copy large sections of the site and publish them elsewhere as your own;
- try to break, overload or gain unauthorised access to any part of the site;
- use automated tools to collect content or data without our written permission;
- use the site for anything unlawful, misleading or harmful to others.
We may limit or block access for anyone who ignores these rules.
Our content and ownership
The text, layout, graphics, logos and other material on this site belong to us or are used with permission. They are protected by copyright and related laws. Quoting a short extract with a clear credit and a link back is fine; anything beyond that needs our approval first.
No guarantees
We work hard to keep information accurate and up to date, but details can change quickly and mistakes can happen. The site is provided as it is and as available, without promises that it will always be complete, error-free or uninterrupted. Our content is general information, not personal advice, so please check important details for yourself before making decisions.
Limits on our responsibility
As far as the law allows, we are not responsible for any loss or damage that results from using, or being unable to use, this site or any websites we link to. Linked sites are run by others, and we have no control over their content or practices. Nothing in these terms limits any rights you have that cannot legally be excluded.
Your personal information
How we handle any information you share with us is explained separately in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
Updates to these terms
We may revise these terms from time to time, for example when we add new features or the law changes. The latest version will always be on this page. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the revised terms.
Getting in touch
Questions, comments or concerns about these terms are always welcome. You can email us at info@bgvh.org.uk or use the form on our Contact page, and we will reply as soon as we reasonably can.
