4. INTERACTIVE SERVICES
From time to time, we may provide certain services on our sites, including, without limitation, the following: chat rooms, bulletin boards, discussion forums, blogs, wikis, customer reviews and comments, and articles with public comments. We refer to these types of service as “interactive services” in this policy.
Where we offer any interactive service, we will provide clear information to you about the kind of service offered, whether 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 sites, 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 that we provide on our sites, and we may stop moderating an interactive service at any time. 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. Moderation is not fool proof, so 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. Minors who are using any interactive service should be made aware of the potential risks to them.
Where we moderate an interactive service:
- We will check all Contributions (which we define as all material that you contribute to our sites, and to any interactive services associated with them) for compliance with the content standards, either before or after they are published.
- We will normally provide you with a means of contacting the moderator, should a concern or difficulty arise.
- We do not guarantee that all Contributions will be published.
- We cannot guarantee how quickly Contributions will be published or removed because this will depend on other editorial commitments.
If you wish to complain about any Contribution that has been posted on our sites, please contact us. We will then review the Contribution and decide whether it complies with our content standards. We will deal with any Contribution that, in our opinion, violates our content standards.
