MEMBERSHIP AND ACCESS

A Full or Associate Member is entitled to an entry in the business directory section of FarmWizard. Such an entry (a 'Members Page') comprises of one web page of information about the Member, and/or may link to the Member's own website, and other information concerning the Members, for example a profile page. The information on such a Members Page will be derived from information provided by the Member on application and it is therefore the Member's responsibility to ensure that the information contained on the application is accurate. The format, content and copyright of the Members Page belongs to the Company. A Member shall not have and the Company shall not be required to include on any Members Page any matter which in the Company's sole opinion is or may be of an illegal, defamatory, distasteful, offensive or unacceptable nature or which the Company considers may infringe third party rights or otherwise give rise to any liability on its part. The Company reserves the right to remove or block without compensation or refund of fees any Members Page which contains any such matter, or which links directly or indirectly to any website which in the Company's sole opinion contains any such matter. The Company will make one amendment to a Members Page free of charge in any one year, but further amendments will incur a charge per amendment. Where an amendment to a Members Page is requested, the Company shall take such steps as it in its absolute discretion considers appropriate to verify the authenticity of the request and the identity of the person making it, but if, despite such steps, an amendment is made without a Member's proper authority, the Company shall have no liability to the Member for any loss or damage arising as a result of such amendment, but shall use reasonable endeavours to correct the Members Page as soon as possible after being notified by the Member that the amendment was unauthorised. Unless otherwise agreed, any material supplied by or on behalf of a Member in order for the Company to design its Members Page will not be returned to the Member and may be disposed of by the Company at its sole discretion. Members will obtain access to FarmWizard, in accordance with the access described from time to time on the web site Joining and membership information, upon payment of the relevant subscription. The Company reserves the right at any time without prior notice and without giving any reason to remove any Member's Page, and/or access, from FarmWizard, and will return any subscription fees on a time-apportioned basis, upon which, the Member's membership shall cease. However, no refund of fees or other compensation will be payable to the Member if either the Member concerned has not made bona fide use of the web site as described in paras 5 & 16, or where FarmWizard is suspended or interrupted or discontinued for all Users or a proportion of Users due to technical breakdown or for any reason beyond the control of the Company. The Company reserves the right to discontinue FarmWizard at any time without notice and for any reason. The Company shall have no liability to any User or any other person for any loss arising out of suspension or discontinuance of FarmWizard. In the event of insolvency of the Company, all Members agree that no claim for outstanding subscriptions on a time-apportioned basis can be made by the Member, and that they waive all rights to notification of statutory meetings and may not prove as a creditor in any subsequent liquidation of the Company. The Company may from time to time operate a ‘Managed Service’ as an agent for members. The Company accepts no responsibility in contract to any third parties whatsoever as a result of acting as an agent, and whilst it will diligently perform the requested operations for members, it is the responsibility of members to check postings made on its behalf. The Company will not make offers that can be accepted or accept offers that have been received by members. Members must conclude contracts directly. DOMAIN NAMES The Company may, at a Member's request, arrange for the registration of a domain name (e.g. .co.uk or .com) for the Member, as agent for the Member. Any such registration lasts for a period, typically two years from the date of registration and it is the sole responsibility of the Member to renew the registration with the relevant registration authority. The Company accepts no responsibility for and shall have no liability for any loss arising as a result of any failure to renew such a registration. The Company may charge a fee for this service.

FEES

The subscription fees for the different categories of membership of FarmWizard are as stated on the website. The Company may from time to time increase such fees and/or introduce fees for categories that were previously free by posting the revised fee rates on FarmWizard. Payment of any applicable fees for the first period of membership shall be due upon making the application and shall be payable by Bank Transfer, cheque or credit card or such other means as the Company may approve from time to time as published on the website. If any fees or other sums payable hereunder are overdue at any time, the Company may charge interest on the amount outstanding at the rate of 5% above the base lending rate of the Bank of England from time to time, compounded monthly, and the Company may also remove or block the Member Page or access (if any) from FarmWizard and restrict or suspend access to the added value information and functionality available on FarmWizard until all outstanding sums are paid. Prior to expiry of the initial membership period, the Company will invite the Member to renew its membership for a further specified period upon payment of the applicable fees in force at the time. If the Member notifies the Company that it does not wish to renew its membership or if it fails to pay any applicable fees in accordance with the said invitation, the Member's membership shall terminate and the Company will remove the Members Page and/or access from FarmWizard. The Member agrees that the Company may retain the details of the Member on its Contacts Database, and other areas of the site, and the Company may charge a removal fee, to be agreed and paid in advance, if the Member expressly requests that its details be removed from FarmWizard. Except in the circumstances described in paragraph 12, the Company shall make no refunds of subscription fees and, in particular, no Member shall be entitled to a refund where it requests the Company to cancel its membership, once its application for membership has been accepted.

The Member agrees to submit to instructions from the Company with regard to use of the website in order to retain orderly conduct within FarmWizard. A Member who fails to comply with instructions concerning their use of FarmWizard may be suspended or removed from FarmWizard without refund of any subscription fees paid. The Company may by notice terminate the membership of any Member if the Member is in breach of any provision of these terms and conditions (including the User Terms). Any notice or other information to be given by the Company to a Member may, without limitation, be given by email, to the email address on the Member's Page or the records provided upon application and shall be deemed duly given when sent, provided no delivery error message is received by the Company within 24 hours after the email was sent. The Company may in its sole discretion from time to time change these terms and conditions by posting new terms and conditions on FarmWizard. The new terms and conditions shall apply automatically immediately after they are posted, and a Member's continued use of FarmWizard after such posting shall be taken to mean that it acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the new terms and conditions. These terms and conditions (including the User Terms and any other terms for special services of FarmWizard where applicable) set out the entire agreement between a Member and the Company with respect to their subject matter and any terms implied by statute or common law are hereby excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. In countries where FarmWizard offers to carry out the service of registering animals/actions with a third party, it is the sole responsibility of the user to verify, through the functionality offered by FarmWizard, and comparison with the user's own and official records, that the registration/action has taken place successfully. The User or Member must regularly verify with any third party involved that the registration has taken place. Where FarmWizard registers an animal with a third party, FarmWizard will endeavour to complete the registration within one working day, although this can in no way be guaranteed, users should take this into account therefore when registering an animal that is required to be registered with the third party, particularly where an animal must be registered within a specific timeframe. In countries where FarmWizard has obtained approval for a government accepted computerised herd register it is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the information in the register is accurate and that animals are entered in the correct order. Whilst FarmWizard will be designed to afford protection of data and records and registrations, the User and Members accept that FarmWizard will not be liable for any financial loss caused by animals failing to be registered, whether these failings have been caused by User/Member error or by FarmWizard or its officers.
