If your account is terminated, you are prohibited from creating a new account under any name. Legal action may be pursued if necessary.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the site or its services at any time without notice. While we strive to keep the site operational, we do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. We are not liable for any losses due to downtime, system failures, or required maintenance.

Scheduled maintenance and unexpected technical issues may impact site performance. We will make reasonable efforts to notify users of major disruptions.

These Terms are governed by and interpreted under the laws of the United Kingdom. If you reside in the EU, additional consumer protection laws may apply. Both parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of UK courts.

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising from your use of the site, violations of these Terms, or actions that harm third parties. We reserve the right to assume control of legal proceedings at your expense.

This clause protects our business from legal risks resulting from user misconduct or breaches of contract.
