Exclusion of liability and compensation

Control and administration of Postings

32. We reserve the right to monitor and check all Postings to ensure their compliance with applicable law and the Rules, and the right to change them or remove them if required, for which you grant us full power of attorney, this based on our sole decision or in cases stipulated in the Rules, this without the obligation to notify you or Others about such.
33. Even though we established these Rules for the sake of your conduct and Postings, it is not possible to demand from us that we check all your Postings to see if they are in compliance with the Rules (even when we are entitled to do so), and so we are not liable either for their content or their compliance with the Rules.
34. Likewise, on grounds of technical and personnel reasons it is not possible for us, given the huge volume of Postings, to deal with all your questions, requests, grievances and so on with regard to Postings, the Website or the Service.
35. You agree that (in addition to other authorisations set out in other parts of the Rules) we shall be entitled to archive copies of any of your Postings and to arrange so that the Content of the Website and Postings (or parts thereof) cannot be the subject of various search programmes on the internet (e.g. Google and so on).
36. We are authorised to caution you in the event of a breach or threat of breach to these Rules or applicable law, and to intervene in such cases to Postings between you and Others (among other things, by deleting a Posting and/or by blocking a discussion forum, part thereof, by cancelling Registration and so on).

Grievances

37. You are obliged to ensure that all of your Postings are compliant with applicable law and these Rules.
38. Even though we are not responsible for your Postings or for the repercussions thereof, it is in our interest to prevent the onset of any damage or loss caused by Postings on the Website, and to see a peaceful settlement to disputes.
39. We therefore reserve the right, but are not obliged, to settle disputes caused by Postings published on the Website between you and Someone.
40. You grant us consent to this end to proceed as follows in the event of a dispute:
    1. If you feel that you have been touched by the Posting of Someone because it is in conflict to applicable law, you are obliged to send to our registered office as stipulated in the beginning of these Rules (not to the Admin!) qualified notice about such a circumstance. A qualified notice is understood as a written notification signed by you, which shall include identification of the specific Posting and its author (specific user), demonstration of the illegality of the Posting, proof of this, together with your name, surname, address and email address. A qualified notice must be delivered to us by registered post in order to prove its delivery. Delivery by some other manner is not acceptable, and neither is notification sent by email, for staff and technical reasons.
    2. Within 5 business days from receipt of a qualified notice we will deliver this qualified notice to the author of the Posting in electronic form (e.g. scanned document through internal mail on the Website) together with a request that the author provide a Declaration on Legality of Posting.
    3. The author of the Posting is then obliged within 5 business days from receipt of the qualified notice to furnish us in the manner stipulated above (applicable to delivery of a qualified notice) with a Declaration on Legality of Posting. A Declaration on Legality of Posting is a written announcement signed by the author of the Posting (with officially certified signature; and where still under 18 years of age, the officially certified signature of at least one parent or legal guardian is required), which shall include demonstration of the legality of the Posting, proof attesting to this, together with the name, surname, address and email address of the author of the Posting.
    4. If the author of the Posting breaches any obligation as per this section of the Rules, he/she acknowledges and agrees to the removal of the Posting from the Website.
    5. If all obligations of the author of the Posting are satisfied, within 5 business days from receipt of the Declaration on Legality of Posting we will send you a copy of it. We will then remove the Posting only based on notification and demonstration from you that you have lodged a lawsuit/other petition with the respective court, the subject of which concerns the Posting.
    6. For this purpose, we are authorised to contact you and Others (in this case, especially the author of the Posting) and to exchange your personal details mutually between you.
    7. Where concerning a Posting of Someone who is not registered, we will remove the Posting immediately after receiving the qualified notice.
    We will proceed accordingly also in the opposite case, i.e. if Someone feels to be touched by your Posting because it is in conflict to applicable law.

50. Only we are entitled to cancel your registration, which we may do unilaterally at any time with immediate effect, without stating reason and without notice.

Additional rules of various sections

Forum rules

1. Before you start a new thread, check to see whether Someone has not already started the thread and if your question has not already been answered on the forum.
2. Before you start a new thread consider well which category it belongs to and include it only in this one category. Do not post the same thread to various categories.
3. Stick to the thread topic. If you think of something new in the middle of an open thread, create a new trhead for it.
4. If you start a thread, make sure you give it an appropriate title. Don't be afraid to use more than two words in your thread title. Titles like “Help me!", "What next?" and the like, don't really tell anyone anything.
5. DO NOT WRITE IN CAPITAL LETTERS! This is not very readable and gives the impression of screaming.
6. With each Posting you should consider whether it is addressed to the general public or to some specific individual. This will determine whether you write a Posting to a forum or send the addressee an internal mail. Typical examples include Postings like "Send me it by email..." and so on. These Postings are of no interest to Others and senselessly clog up the forum, so should be sent through internal mail.
7. Do not use vulgarisms and coarse language.
8. Do not insult, provoke quarrels and do not lower yourself to the use of verbal provocations, whether directed at other users or admins. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but these should not be forced on others. If you want to criticise someone, do so respectably and without a feeling of disdain. Do not resolve personal conflicts with other members on the forum.
9. Do not enter contact details of companies in Postings. You can mention their name, but do not write their address, telephone number, email address, www address etc. to the forum. To send this kind of information you should use internal mail or e-mail.
10. If you are a company (or represent a company, or are from a company but are pretending you are not), do not write in the forum (not even about things not associated with your company). Corporate adverts are subject to fees, and a free presentation in the forum is forbidden.
11. Do not distract the attention of other users by multiple postings of the same thread, requests to participate in competitions and in voting and the like. You can ask your acquaintances to vote on a thread that you contribute to regularly, but not on other randomly selected threads.
12. Do not put the content of internal mail onto the forum. This content is addressed to you personally and not to the public.

If you breach these Rules, you may have access to the Website blocked.

Album Rules (in photo blogs)

Finalstitch.co.uk is a website about weddings and so all your photographs should have this theme as the main focus. The less that photographs have to do with a wedding, the more chance there is that the admin will remove them.

The following points will guide you as to which photos belong on the site and which do not. These points are for guidance only and cannot take all possibilities into account. The admin will always have the last word.

Wedding album photographs include:

1. Photographs from your wedding, i.e. the ceremony, the reception, photographic studio or outdoor photographs, congratulations, wedding party... .
2. A maximum of 2 photographs from your honeymoon.
3. A maximum of 2 photos of your children. You will be able to post other photos of your children later on our motherhood/parenting site which is coming soon.
4. The album title may contain a maximum of 2 netext elements (e.g. glitter texts, tickers, banners, music etc.).

The main thing is that the principal theme of the photographs concerns a wedding.

The following do not belong among Wedding albums:

1. Other photographs than those listed in the previous section.
2. Various temporary photos like “just putting it up for a minute, then I will delete it”.
3. Company presentations do not belong in albums.
4. Various items for sale. They belong to the Marketplace section.
5. Adverts. No contact details or links to websites may be shown in photographs. Any watermark on the photographs may contain only indication of the author or photographer.
6. Photographs of children should be posted on motherhood/parenting sites.
7. Wedding photographs should be posted on www.finalstitch.co.uk.
   

Additional rule: Any single wedding can only be placed on the Website once (e.g. it is not okay if photos from the same wedding are posted by the bride and then by the husband under a different login).

The Forum Rules apply accordingly to album titles.

Wedding preparation albums can include:

1. Photographs from your wedding preparations, such as from trying on dresses, make-up, hairstyle, wedding rings, wedding announcements etc.
2. Inspirational photographs such as dresses, hairstyles, cakes, flowers, suits etc (inspirational photographs do not include photographs from the wedding itself, where you can see the wedding cake or rings by chance, for example. These belong in the Wedding album).
3. Photos of groups of website members' meetings, however, there must be more than 3 members in the photo.
4. Various tables and schemes relating to the wedding, e.g. organisational table.
5. Your personal photographs or you with your other half are fine for introducing who you are, but a maximum of 2 photos please (we do not want albums full of your holiday in the mountains).
6. The album title can contain a maximum of 2 non-text elements (such as glitter text, tickers, banners, music etc.)

Wedding preparation albums do not include:

1. Photos that at first glance have nothing to do with the wedding. This means that if you showed someone else the photo the word “wedding” would not spring to mind when looking at it (without your comments). This includes mainly, but not only: photos of friends, children, a flat, animals, gardens, cars etc.
2. Various items for sale. They belong to the Marketplace section.
3. Any photos from the wedding also do not belong here, as they should be in the Wedding album.
4. Various temporary photos like “just putting it up for a minute, then I will delete it” also do not belong here.
5. Adverts. The titles and photographs in albums should not include the contact details of a company. You can mention their name, but not their address, telephone number, email address or www address. Any watermark on photographs may contain only the name of the author.

General rule: If someone were to look at these photos, they would say: “This is inspiring for a wedding. I could try it as well...”.

The Forum Rules apply accordingly to album titles.

Marketplace rules

When using the Marketplace section you acknowledge and agree to abide by the following rules:

1. The Marketplace section can be used by individuals (physical persons), who offer their own goods. Any commercial sale is prohibited in the marketplace (neither for new nor for second-hand goods).
2. The Marketplace section is completely free of cost for all individuals.
3. Only material goods can be advertised in the marketplace. If you wish to advertise a service then you must do so in the menu “Directory”.
4. We do not check or take responsibility for the content of listings posted by users, including their identification details, or for the quality of the advertised goods.
5. The Marketplace section serves exclusively for mediating contact between sellers and potential buyers. As a user of Marketplace you are aware that you yourself carry the material or financial risk linked to a listing on Marketplace, and to any purchase-sales transaction arising on the basis of this listing.
6. Only goods that conform to the law of the UK and which are not subject to any specific legislation (e.g. prescription drugs) may be advertised.
7. Goods may not be advertised which do not conform to applicable legal regulations on the protection of industrial and intellectual property (e.g. regulations on patents, trademarks, designs, formulas...), whereby this mostly concerns illegal copies of products of renowned world producers. The user posting the listing is responsible for the respective verification and for compliance with regulations. Furthermore, it is not permitted to advertise goods classified to the system of network selling or multi-level marketing (e.g. Avon, Oriflame, Tupperware...) or network selling of insurance, financial products and advice.

Posting listings:

8. A listing is to be posted to the category that corresponds to it.
9. Only place listing into one category.
10. If you are selling more items in one listing, they must all belong to the respective category.
11. Do not publish the same listing several times at the same time.
12. Choose the kind of title and photographs in a listing that best reflect the actual state of the sold items. Being deliberately misleading regarding the condition, quality, origin, or brand of a sold item is unacceptable and could lead to permanent blocking of your account on our Website.
13. Do not include an advertisement or link to a website in listings (not even in attached photographs – i.e. also not logos). Any watermark on photographs may contain only the user name (nick) of the author of the listing.
14. Do not write words in CAPITAL LETTERS, as this reduces the readability of listings. This excludes acronyms (e.g. USA, EU etc) and the brand names of products (MAGGIE SOTTERO). Do not use “highlighting symbols” intended to distinguish your listing visually from the others (e.g. exclamation marks!!!, - - - hyphens - - -, *** asterisks *** etc.). These rules apply to the title and also the text of a listing.
15. Make it clear what you are selling and how many pieces – e.g. I am selling 10 red and white feathers. Listings like: I am selling feathers, more info by email, I am selling various decorations, are prohibited.
