Indemnity

We have been advised that we need to include this paragraph which basically requires you to protect us and other GV Group (Gate Ventures) subsidiary companies against people suing us or them for something bad happening in connection with your use of the Website or your behaviour:

In using the Website you agree to indemnify and hold harmless GV Group (Gate Ventures) Limited and all other subsidiary companies and each of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, representatives and agents (and you shall continue to indemnify them and hold them harmless) in respect of all losses, liabilities, costs, claims, damages and demands suffered in connection with your conduct in using the Website, your behaviour towards us, other GV Group (Gate Ventures) companies, our and their representatives, other users, any breach of law, any breach of these Terms and Conditions or any breach of any third party’s rights.

Proprietary Rights

All text, graphics, audio, video or image files, content, software, applications and information displayed on or available from the Website, and all copyright, trade mark rights, design rights and other intellectual property rights in them (together, the “Proprietary Content”) are the property of GV Group (Gate Ventures) Limited and our subsidiary companies, our users, suppliers or licensors. This includes, without limitation, the organisation and lay-out of the Website and the underlying software that is owned by us, other GV Group (Gate Ventures) companies, our users, suppliers or licensors.

By using the Website you’re agreeing that Proprietary Content is available for personal use only and that you will not copy, reproduce, publish, distribute or dispose of in any way any Proprietary Content. Neither the GV Group (Gate Ventures) name nor any other of our subsidiary companies name, trade mark, logo or design may be used or copied in any manner.

Links to Other Sites

The Website provides, amongst other things, convenient links to other GV Group (Gate Ventures) companies’ websites. You can also contact the GV Group (Gate Ventures) companies through the “Companies” section of the Website. The Website may also contain links to other third party websites, resources, advertisements or sponsorships.

If you choose to access any of these links, you will be leaving the Website and since we don’t have any control over these sites, we are not responsible for the content, advertising, products or services available from them, or for any dealings or disputes that you may have in relation to those sites. We will not be liable for any loss or damage which may be suffered as a result of the use of such links and third party sites. We would encourage you to review the terms and conditions and privacy policy on any new site you may choose to access because our terms and conditions and privacy policy will no longer be applicable.

We reserve the right to remove a link at any time.

Pop Ups

When using the Website, you may get pop-ups occasionally. We use these for many reasons, like competition entry forms, signing up to our newsletters and questionnaires to help us improve our service to you. Pop-up boxes from the Website are clearly marked with a heading from “www.gv-group.co.uk”.

You might also get pop-up boxes from other GV Group (Gate Ventures) companies. Again you should be able to identify these, as they should be marked with a heading from the relevant GV Group (Gate Ventures) Limited.

You might also get pop-up ads from third parties. These may appear due to software you have installed, deliberately or unknowingly, on your computer. Unfortunately, we cannot control these pop-up boxes because they haven’t come from us.

We do not endorse any website or product which appears in any pop-ups which do not come from us.

Accessibility

If you have trouble using the Website with certain web browsers or other software or if you want to let us know how we can improve accessibility, please let us know by contacting us via info@gv-group.co.uk. We appreciate your feedback and your suggestions will help us to improve our service for you.

Website information and downtime

The Website may be unavailable occasionally for maintenance, updating or otherwise. Where this happens we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. However, we shall not be liable for any loss, damages or inconvenience resulting from such unavailability.

We take great care in seeking to present accurate, transparent and useful information to you as a valuable user. However, as an open platform there is content on the Website which is not generated by us, for example Third Party Content, as described above. Therefore, we should let you know that information on the Website might be out of date, incomplete, contain some errors or be in some way unreliable. Just to be sure, please check any information obtained from the Website before acting upon it in any way.

Please note that we may make changes to the Website, its functions and services from time to time.

Other Limitations on Liability

It is important to note that using the internet does have its dangers. Our aim is to ensure a reliable and secure service and to protect your personal information. However we cannot take responsibility for:

• any breach of security of the Website;
• any damage, loss or corruption of any data, information or material;
• any viruses or other malicious programs that may infect your computer equipment or other property; or
• any breach of security by hackers in relation to the Website.

If we breach these Terms and Conditions, we shall only be liable to you for losses which are a reasonably foreseeable consequence of such a breach (which means that the losses could have been contemplated by you or us at the time of entering these Terms and Conditions). In no circumstances shall GV Group (Gate Ventures) Limited or any of our Subsidiary Companies be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential or economic loss (or for any exemplary or punitive damages), in connection with the use of the Website or any other site. The same applies for the employees, officers, directors, representatives and agents of GV Group (Gate Ventures) Limited or any of our Subsidiary Companies. This paragraph only applies to the extent that it can in accordance with applicable laws.

Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and Conditions and any dispute in relation to them are governed by English law and we reserve the right to bring proceedings in the courts in any location, the English courts or whichever forum we feel is appropriate.

As a user, the laws of your location may apply to your online dealings with the Website and you may have additional legal rights and/or obligations than those provided under English law. We always recommend that you should seek local legal advice, however we would encourage you to speak to us if you have any concerns to see if they can be resolved.

Additional terms

These Terms and Conditions and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you, the user, and us in relation to your use of the Website and supersede all prior agreements and arrangements between us in relation to your use of the Website.

If any provision or part of these Terms and Conditions is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of all of the other provisions and parts of these Terms and Conditions will not be impaired.

No failure or delay by GV Group (Gate Ventures) Limited or any of our Subsidiary Companies in exercising or enforcing any right, power or remedy which arises under these Terms and Conditions shall operate as a waiver of that or any other right, power or remedy. No waiver by GV Group (Gate Ventures) Limited or any of our Subsidiary Companies shall be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorised representative of that company.
