These are our Site rules. You have to follow them.
If you access or use this Site you agree to follow these terms. We may revise these rules from time to time by updating this posting. The revised rules will take effect when they are posted.
We own the Site and everything on it. Please don’t use it to advertise your stuff, give our stuff to anyone else or claim that our stuff is yours. If you do, we’ll stop you using the Site and our information.
You can access and use the Site only for personal purposes. This means you can’t promote your own products or services on the Site (or anyone else’s). You also can’t exploit our stuff.
- Nothing you do on the Site will transfer any ownership rights of any kind to you or permit you to assert any ownership rights unless we specifically agree.
- Unless we give you our specific written permission, you can’t reprint or electronically reproduce the Site or any of its contents, in whole or in part.
- In order to access certain features on the Site, you may need to (i) register; (ii) sign in via your social media account; or (iii) verify that you are over 18 years old.
- You must provide us with accurate and up-to-date registration information. You can choose a username which is different to your real name, but you can’t pretend to be someone else or use a vulgar or offensive username.
From time to time we might send you business-related communications, but only if you have registered or subscribed to receive them. If you ask us, we will stop sending them to you.
We want you to join in but you have to play nice. Don’t break any laws, sell or exploit our stuff or use vulgar or offensive language or hate speech.
- We encourage you to contribute to the Site by submitting comments, participating in the Site discussion forums and, where appropriate, uploading information and photos (“Submissions”).
- You retain any ownership rights you already have in your Submissions. By posting Submissions, you agree that we can reproduce, modify, publish, and distribute the Submissions and that we won’t breach anyone else’s rights if we do so.

- You also aren’t allowed to distribute viruses, corrupted files or anything else that might damage the operation of any computer hardware or software, or collect or store personal data about other Site users.
- Even if you stick to the rules, from time to time others may not (we’ll deal with them separately!). You understand that you use the Site at your own risk. We reserve the right to review, flag, modify, refuse or remove any or all Submissions from the Site, but we don’t have to, and we will not be responsible for anyone’s Submissions. Also, you understand that we have no control over the accuracy or completeness of any Submissions.

ALSO, IF YOU CONTRIBUTE TO YOUR LOSS, THE US$100 WILL REDUCE TO TAKE ACCOUNT OF YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
- You must protect us and anyone who works for us, from any loss, damage, liability, cost or expense (including legal fees) suffered because (i) a claim is brought by someone else against any of them, to the extent that such claim arises out of your breach of these terms, your breach of or failure to comply with any laws or your misuse or infringement of any rights which belong to someone else; or (ii) you breach any obligation or promise to us under these terms or you break the law.
- We aren’t responsible for any loss, corruption or interception of data sent to or from the Site that occurs outside of our computer systems (such as those which occur while data is being sent over the internet).

We may, from time to time, modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, any or all of the Site. If you keep using the Site after a revision, you accept the revised terms.
If you buy anything on the Site you must pay for it.
We don’t have to give you a refund, except in a few cases where the law says we have to. When you buy something from someone else we let sell things on the Site (we call them ‘affiliates’) please understand that your deal is with them not us. If you have any questions, please give them a call.
We are not responsible for the actions or inactions of advertisers or content on linked sites.
The Site may contain links to websites operated by third parties or include advertising or promotional material provided by our advertisers. We are not responsible for that content or the accuracy of any other sites linked to the Site. You should contact the relevant third party directly if have any questions.
We also have a privacy policy. You should read it too.
By using the Site, you give us permission to use your personal information in accordance with our privacy policy – you can see it here. It is part of these terms.
Any legal issues will be taken care of in court.
If a fight does break out, the dispute will be controlled by the laws, and in the courts, of Queensland, Australia. It’s a nice place. We’ll recommend some restaurants.
