Website Terms of Use

By accessing this website you enter into a contract with David Lloyd Leisure Limited (“us”) whereby your use of the website is subject to these terms and conditions.

The information on this website has been prepared solely for the purpose of providing information about David Lloyd Leisure Limited and its subsidiaries and associates. We will use reasonable care to ensure that the information is accurate at the time it is added to the website. However we cannot guarantee that the information is accurate and we shall not be liable for any loss or damage that anyone may suffer in reliance on the information on this website.

This website contains information about health, nutrition, weight loss and similar topics. Such information is provided for education and general awareness only and should not be regarded as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. You should always seek the advice of your doctor or other qualified health care provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition or treatment and never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on this website. You should also speak to your doctor or other qualified health care provider before starting any diet or exercise programme.

The information on this website is provided without any warranty or implied term of any kind, including but not limited to any implied warranties or implied terms of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. All such implied terms and warranties are hereby excluded.

Any and all information is subject to change without notice. Publications are subject to availability and their provision is at our discretion.

We may from time to time provide interactive services on our site, including, without limitation:

• Chat rooms
• Bulletin boards
• Blogs

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).

Service name	Type of service	Moderation
DL Blog	Blog	Human
Racquets Community	Peer-to-peer messaging	None

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.

The use of any of our interactive services by a minor is subject to the consent of their parent or guardian. We advise parents who permit their children to use an interactive service that it is important that they communicate with their children about their safety online, as moderation is not foolproof. Minors who are using any interactive service should be made aware of the potential risks to them.

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.

If you participate in any interactive service on our site by posting or contributing any comments or other content, you must comply with the spirit and the letter of the following content standards.
