Jurisdiction and applicable law</h2> <p>13.1. These Terms are governed by English law. The English courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute relating to these Terms</p> <a name="section-14"></a> <h2>14: House Rules</h2> <p>Please read these rules carefully. They outline what we consider is acceptable and unacceptable content. We may update the rules from time to time, so please read them before posting a comment.</p> <p><b>Rule 1</b>: We welcome your opinions, experiences and advice. We want our customers to see and understand different points of view. Try to contribute to the thread, rather than just stating if you agree or disagree. Unless you have a witty one-liner, please explain why you hold your opinion.</p> <p><b>Rule 2</b>: This is a public forum. Once your comment is online, everyone with Internet access can read it. Please make your comment clear to ensure that it is not misunderstood. Your comment may be appreciated by other users by being given a thumbs up. You can express a strong opinion but please do not go over the top. Don't forget that you are legally responsible for what you submit. Please consider how your comment could be received by others. Many different types of people of different ages may view your comment.</p> <p><b>Rule 3</b>: Language and relevance. Please be polite. Do not use swear words or crude or sexual language. Only English is allowed. Keep your submissions relevant to the article or topic. Do not insult other contributions or discuss the non-appearance or removal of any content on this Site or the suspension or termination of any users. If you would like to discuss the operation of the Site with us, please email us on <a href="mailto:contact@mailsubscriptions.co.uk">contact@mailsubscriptions.co.uk</a></p> <p><b>Rule 4</b>: Report abuse. We strongly support the One Account community in maintaining high standards of participation. If you consider that a comment does not comply with these rules or our Terms, please use the relevant Flag as Inappropriate facility, located just under the comment in issue. The facility should only be used for serious complaints, not simply because you disagree with something said.</p> <p><b>Rule 5</b>: No libel or other abuse. You must not make or encourage comments which are: • defamatory, false or misleading; • insulting, threatening or abusive; • obscene or of a sexual nature; • offensive, racist, sexist, homophobic or discriminatory against any religions or other groups.</p> <p><b>Rule 6</b>: Confidentiality, privacy and contempt. Please respect people's privacy. You are not allowed to submit confidential or private information. For example, you must not upload the telephone number, email address or any other contact details of any person. You should not write anything which could prejudice pending or on-going court proceedings of which you are aware. For example, if you have any personal knowledge about someone who has been arrested or charged or being prosecuted for an offence, you must not mention it. If you do, you could be in contempt of court, which is an extremely serious matter.</p> <p><b>Rule 7</b>: No advertising, solicitation or investigations. You must not use our Site for: • the promotion of any products or services or for any other commercial purpose; • any sponsorship, petition, campaign, scheme or chain message; • an investigation e.g. tracing the whereabouts of any person.</p> <p><b>Rule 8</b>: No impersonation and proper disclosure. You must not pretend to be someone else (e.g. an expert, another user or a member of our team). You must not pretend that you are unconnected to an article or topic, when in fact you are. If you have a personal connection to a story or topic, you should disclose your connection or, where appropriate, not comment at all.</p> <p><b>Rule 9</b>: No linking or copyright infringement. You must not insert links to websites (URLs) or submit content which would be an infringement of copyright.</p> <p><b>Rule 10</b>: Respect the spirit as well as the letter of the House Rules. In deciding what is acceptable, please also respect the spirit and tone of these rules and the community.</p> <p><b>Rule 11</b>: Removal of content. Reader comments that violate the letter or spirit of these rules or our Terms may be removed (or, if checked in advance, not published in the first place). If we do remove something, we will generally remove whole posts, or where necessary, whole threads (not parts). This means that even if only one sentence is objectionable, the whole comment will usually be removed (or not published). If a comment or a thread is removed, this may be for any number of reasons. Usually, this will be because the comment breaks these rules or our Terms or is the subject of an abuse report. Sometimes, the comment may be removed because it is connected to another comment which is being removed. We hope that you will understand that, once properly notified of a complaint, we may have to remove a comment for legal reasons (whatever the rights and wrongs). If your content has been removed, we may email you to let you know or to inform you if you have been suspended or banned from submitting further comments to the Site. If you are aware that content has been removed, you must not deliberately resubmit the same content.</p> <p><b>Rule 12</b>: Suspension and termination. We reserve the right to suspend or ban an account at our sole discretion. Here are some reasons why we might do so: </p> <ul> <li>Breaching these rules or our Terms;</li> <li>Serious failure to respect the spirit and tone of the community;</li> <li>Conduct or comments that demand a disproportionate amount of our time or that abuse our staff.</li> </ul> <p>The length of a suspension or whether we ban someone depends on all the circumstances. Bans are generally for extreme cases and repeated serious abuse. If we suspend or ban your registration, you must not attempt to re-register or submit content (e.g. using someone else's account), without our permission.</p> <a name="section-15"></a> <h2>15: <a href="/pages/themailsubs/privacyAndCookiesPolicy" target="_blank">Privacy & Cookies Policy</a></h2> <a name="section-16"></a> <h2>16: Complaints</h2> <p> If you have a complaint about editorial content in a video please go to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/readerseditor">www.dailymail.co.uk/readerseditor</a> to fill in a complaint form. </p> <p> Ofcom regulates the editorial content of on-demand services and ensuring that certain rules are observed, including in relation to product placement and sponsorship in certain programmes, and prohibiting certain material, including relating to incitement to hatred. </p> <p> If your complaint is not resolved, you can submit an online complaint here: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ofcom.org.uk/tv-radio-and-on-demand/how-to-report-a-complaint/complain-about-a-video-on-demand-service">www.ofcom.org.uk/tv-radio-and-on-demand/how-to-report-a-complaint/complain-about-a-video-on-demand-service</a>. </p> <p> Ofcom’s general contact page is here <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ofcom.org.uk/about-ofcom/contact-us">www.ofcom.org.uk/about-ofcom/contact-us</a>. </p> <p> If you have a complaint about advertising, please go to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/readerseditor">www.dailymail.co.uk/readerseditor</a> to fill in a complaint form. </p> <p> If your complaint is unresolved you can contact the ASA by post at Advertising Standards Authority, Mid City Place, 71 High Holborn, London, WC1V 6QT, or by telephoning 0207 492 2222.
