Rules andTerms of Use
By registering
to use the OZmium Forums users agree to abide by the following
Terms of Use.
Please note
that the Forums are a free service extended by a commercial
entity and are not public property. The Forum Terms of
Use take precedence over freedom of expression, in the
interests of maintaining this service.
People who
register for the Forums may receive occasional promotional
material via e-mail from OZmium Pty Ltd. This will be
minimal and your e-mail address will not be passed on
to any third party under any circumstances.
The OZmium
Forums are minimally moderated. Postings are not
checked before publication, but if any are detected that
run contrary to the Terms of Use outlined here they may
be edited or deleted. In extreme cases,
where a breach of the law may have occurred, the appropriate
authorities will be alerted.
When registering
to post on the Forums please choose an appropriate
user name. Obscene or overly suggestive names are
not permitted. Names that double as a commercial promotion
by containing the name of a site or a hyperlink are not
allowed without prior permission of the Forum owners.
The use of famous names as pseudonyms in cases where some
readers could reasonably be expected to think that it
really might be that person are not allowed. (Example:
It is okay to call yourself Napoleon, but not okay to
call yourself Bart Cummings, unless you are!)
Opinions
and advice offered on the Forums should be treated with
due caution and the owners of this site do not accept
responsibility for any loss arising from it. Any opinions
expressed here belong to the poster and are not endorsed
by the Forum owners unless explicitly stated.
Management
reserves the right to use the Forums in any way it sees
fit, including the posting of commercial material.
All postings
to the Forums and their subsequent threads become the
property of the Forum owners. Requests for the removal
of postings and their threads for reasons other than factual
error, potentially defamatory content, or occasional special
circumstances will in most cases not be granted.
The
following types of postings are not acceptable.
Potentially
defamatory or libelous.
This especially relates to the identifying of businesses,
racing products, racing personalities or other individuals
in a context that could harm reputations, even if justified.
Offensive
language or sexual content.
Personal
abuse or unpleasantness.
A member who continually alienates other members of the
Forum may be restricted or banned.
Incitement
of racial hatred or other activities illegal under Australian
law.
Promotion
of other sites in a way that might be expected to result
in financial disadvantage to OZmium Pty Ltd.
For advice on what is acceptable in this regard before
posting, please contact OZmium management.
Promotion
of 'get rich quick' schemes or e-mail solicitations to
join such schemes.
Unpaid advertisements
or spam.
Persistent
irrelevant or off-topic postings such as political or
religious rhetoric.
Persistent
attacks on OZmium Pty Ltd designed to cause commercial
harm.
In particular, attacks from anonymous posters concealing
their identities behind generic (Yahoo, Hotmail, etc)
e-mail addresses are not acceptable in view of the likelihood
of them being competitors.
Postings
not covered by any of the above, but deemed clearly inappropriate
by management.
NOTE:
Management reserves the right to responsibly edit postings
in line with the Terms of Use outlined above, for example
to remove an obscene reference from an otherwise worthwhile
posting, without justification or entering into correspondence.
Management
also reserves the right to restrict or ban members who
contravene these Terms of Use, create a nuisance or become
difficult or vexatious, without justification or entering
into correspondence.
