2. Our liability
We've tried to make sure the information we give is accurate. This includes information we give:
- on this website
- by email
- when you chat with us online
Being 'liable' means being legally responsible for something.
We're not liable for any loss, damage or inconvenience you experience as a result of:
- using this website
- contacting us by email
- using our online chat
This is the case as far as the law allows, whether the loss, damage or inconvenience comes from contract, 'tort', or any other source.
'Tort' is the name given to an area of law related to people who are in positions of responsibility. It makes them liable if they don't carry out the legal obligations that go with their positions.
This means we're not liable for:
- any loss of data or profits
- interruptions or delays to the website
- when we can or can't provide a service
- any information, material, goods and services obtained through the website
We can still be liable for death or personal injury caused by 'negligence'. Negligence is when an organisation or person fails to take the care they should take when they do something.
You can read the full legal definition of negligencein the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977, which is on the government's legislation website.
We can also be liable for fraud or 'fraudulent misrepresentation', which is when someone says things they know aren't true for their own benefit.
