We may from time to time provide interactive services on our site, including, without limitation, chat rooms and bulletin / message boards ("interactive services").
Where we do provide any interactive service, we will provide clear information to you about the kind of service offered, if it is moderated and what form of moderation is used (including whether it is human or technical).
We will do our best to assess any possible risks for users (and in particular, for children) from third parties when they use any interactive service provided on our site, and we will decide in each case whether it is appropriate to use moderation of the relevant service (including what kind of moderation to use) in the light of those risks. However, we are under no obligation to oversee, monitor or moderate any interactive service we provide on our site, and we expressly exclude our liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of any interactive service by a user in contravention of our content standards, whether the service is moderated or not.
Further, unless otherwise expressly specified, all of the interactive services provided on our site are not moderated. We will not be responsible as author, editor or publisher of any contributions (as defined below) submitted to any of our interactive services and we expressly exclude our liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of the interactive services by any person in contravention of this policy. We reserve the right to promptly remove, or to disable access to, any contributions which we deem to be potentially defamatory of any person, unlawful or in violation of any third party rights.
Where we do moderate an interactive service, we will normally provide you with a means of contacting the moderator, should a concern or difficulty arise.
These content standards apply to any and all material which you contribute to our site ("contributions"), and to any interactive services associated with it.

Although you will still own the copyright in your contributions, we will have the right to freely use, transmit, copy, edit, alter, reproduce, publicly display or perform, publish, create derivative works of and/or distribute the material contained in your contributions. This licence will be free of charge, perpetual and capable of sub-licence.

We have no obligation to review or use any contributions to any interactive services or to keep them confidential, but if we elect to use them, we are free to use and repurpose such contributions for any purpose, without any compensation to you.
