Terms of Use
Agreement to these terms
By accessing or using this website or a TAW service, you agree to these Terms of Use. Rules or guidelines for a particular service also apply to your use of that service. Our Privacy Policy forms part of these terms.
1. Acceptance and amendments
Each time you access this website, you agree to the Terms of Use then in effect. We may amend these terms from time to time, with or without individual notice. Continued use after a change means that the updated terms apply. Service-specific rules and guidelines are incorporated into these terms by reference.
2. Our service
The website and its services are provided on an as-is basis. TAW may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the website or its services, temporarily or permanently, without notice or liability. TAW may also remove data supplied through the service and is not responsible for delays, deletion, failure to store, inaccuracies, or improper delivery of information.
3. Registration responsibilities
Registration may be required to use the website. You must be at least sixteen years old and provide truthful information when requested. By registering, you expressly agree to these terms and any later version made available on this website.
4. Privacy
Registration details and other personal information collected by TAW are handled according to our Privacy Policy.
5. Account and password security
You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for activity performed through your account, whether authorised by you or not. Notify TAW immediately if you discover unauthorised use of your account, registration, or password.
6. Your conduct
The person who supplies text, software, code, audio, images, video, or any other material is responsible for that content. You may encounter material that you consider objectionable or offensive, and TAW is not responsible for user-provided content or errors and omissions within it.
When using the website or any TAW service, you must not:
- Submit unlawful, threatening, harmful, abusive, harassing, defamatory, obscene, offensive, pornographic, disruptive, or malicious content, including viruses or destructive code.
- Impersonate another person or organisation, misrepresent an association, or conceal the origin of content.
- Collect or harvest information about other users.
- Use the website or its content commercially, or distribute spam, junk mail, chain letters, pyramid schemes, or unauthorised advertising, without prior written consent.
- Submit material that infringes copyright, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, or other rights, or that may create civil or criminal liability.
7. Content you submit
When you submit content, you grant TAW a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, non-exclusive licence, including any necessary moral rights, to use, display, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, distribute, perform, promote, archive, translate, and create derivative works or compilations from that content in any current or future medium.
You confirm that you hold the rights required to grant that licence. TAW may, but is not required to, refuse, remove, or block access to submitted content at any time, for any reason, with or without notice.
8. Third-party services
Third-party goods and services may be advertised or made available through this website. Their providers' own terms, policies, and representations govern those offerings. TAW is not responsible for your dealings or interactions with third parties.
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless TAW and its subsidiaries, affiliates, related parties, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, advertisers, partners, and co-branders from third-party claims and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the service, your content, your conduct, your breach of these terms, or your violation of another person's rights.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
You use the website, services, and content at your own risk. They are provided as is. To the fullest extent permitted by law, TAW disclaims express and implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
TAW does not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, virus-free, timely, secure, accurate, reliable, or of any particular quality, or that downloads will be safe. Information shared through the service is not professional advice and is used at your own risk. Some jurisdictions do not allow every implied-warranty exclusion, so some exclusions may not apply to you.
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, TAW is not liable for direct, indirect, special, incidental, consequential, or exemplary damages, including lost profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible loss, arising from use or inability to use the service; substitute goods or services; transactions made through the service; unauthorised access to or alteration of data; third-party statements or conduct; or any other service-related matter, even if TAW was advised that such damages were possible. Local law may limit this exclusion.
12. Reservation of rights
TAW reserves its copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, and all other proprietary rights in the website, its content, and related goods and services. Making the service available does not grant you an implied or express licence. Commercial use of TAW rights, property, the website, or its services requires prior written consent.
13. Copyright infringement notices
If you believe your intellectual property has been used in a way that infringes your rights, contact the copyright agent at webmaster@taw.net.
14. Applicable law
These terms and disputes arising from the website, products, or services are governed by the laws applicable where the website owner's headquarters is located, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. By using or registering for the service, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the relevant county or city.
15. Miscellaneous
- If a provision conflicts with applicable law or is held invalid, it will be interpreted as closely as possible to its original intent and the remaining terms will continue in effect.
- A failure to enforce a right under these terms is not a waiver of that right.
- Any claim arising from the website or services must be filed within one year after it arose, unless applicable law does not permit that limit.
- TAW may assign its rights and obligations under these terms and be released from further obligation.
