Interactive features

From time to time, we may offer various interactive features on our website (interactive features). These may include features which allow you to provide comments in relation to the products which we sell (product comments) and about the level of service which we provide (service feedback), to participate in a blog (blog comments) and to chat in real time with our customer service team (live chat).

The product comments, service feedback and blog comments interactive features allow you to provide material which will be published on our website. Service feedback and blog comments are automatically accepted for publication but may then be moderated by a human if they are offensive or inappropriate. Product comments are moderated by a human before they are published. The live chat interactive feature will never result in material which you provide being published.

We will do our best to consider any possible risks for users posed by third parties when they use any interactive feature, and we will decide in each case whether it is appropriate to use moderation of the relevant feature (including what kind of moderation to use). We are, however, under no obligation to monitor or to moderate any interactive feature, and we expressly exclude our liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of any interactive feature by a user in contravention of our terms of website use.

The use of any interactive feature by a minor is not permitted. This should be obvious, really, given what we sell.
