We have no control over the products, services or websites of these third parties and we take no responsibility for their actions. Our website may also contain advertising from third parties and we are not responsible for any misleading or inaccurate advertisements that are the sole responsibility of the advertiser.

Your Responsibilities
We are not an estate agency and we provide a service whereby agents may market properties and our website users view details thereof, together with other content hosted and developed by us. Agents are responsible for preparing the details and fielding enquiries directly from users. We do not get involved in any communications between users and agents and we do not participate in any part of the transaction.
Details are hosted by us in good faith but are produced directly by agents and have not been verified by us. Potential customers of agents or developers are responsible for making their own enquiries and we accept no responsibility for any inaccuracies or incompleteness within our published materials. With regard to the foregoing:
Intellectual Property
The services, content and materials on our website (including but not limited to its design, copy, search results, images, graphics, structure, layouts and underlying software code) are protected by copyright and trademarks and are subject to intellectual property rights. Services, content and materials may not be copied or reproduced without our prior written consent. All rights are reserved, except for the limited licensing rights granted below:
You may not reproduce, republish, transmit or distribute anything on our website without our prior consent. However, you are granted a limited right to access the services and retrieve, display and print content for your own personal, non-commercial use. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and without notice to you, to terminate your licence to use our services and prevent your access to our website.
Disclaimer
Our services are provided on an ‘as is’ and ‘as available’ basis, and we make no representations or warranties of any kind, either express or implied. You agree to use our website and services at your sole risk and we expressly disclaim any warranties, either express or implied, including those relating to quality, suitability for any purpose, compatibility, reliability, accuracy, completeness, timeliness, access or use.
We strive to ensure that our website and services are available to you at all times but cannot guarantee that either the website or the services will operate continuously, without interruptions or be fault free. On occasion, necessary maintenance or upgrade work means that our website and services are unavailable without notice, but we aim to keep downtime to a minimum. We accept no liability for any interruption or loss of service. We reserve the absolute right to alter, suspend or discontinue any part of our website or services, including your access to it.
We accept no responsibility and make no guarantee that our services will be free from
faults, errors and/or omissions. It is your sole responsibility to evaluate the quality, suitability, accuracy, completeness and reliability of services or information provided.
Limitation of Liability
In no event shall we nor any of our directors, employees, affiliated companies, agents or suppliers be liable for any loss or damages arising from your use of our services. Should you not agree with any part of these terms of use or have any dispute or claim against us or our suppliers with respect to our services, your sole and exclusive remedy will be to discontinue using the services. Nonetheless, nothing in this clause delimits any statutory rights you may have as a consumer that may not be excluded, or in any way limits our liability to you in the event of personal injury or death caused by our negligence.
Liability to Third Parties
You agree to hold us harmless, indemnify and defend us and our directors, employees, affiliated companies, agents or suppliers in relation to any claims or demands made by a third party, due to or arising out of your use of our services or the violation of these terms of use by you; also in the event of any infringement by you of intellectual property or other rights relating to another person or entity.
Changes to Terms of Use
We reserve the right in our sole discretion to change these terms of use at any time without prior notice to you. Any changes will be posted on our website and become effective at the time of posting. Your continued use of the services after the effective date of such changes will constitute acceptance of and agreement to any such changes. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or discontinue all or part of our services at any time to you and/or others without notice or liability.
Applicable Law
These terms of use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law and the parties agree that any disputes will be settled in English courts, although we may take action in any relevant jurisdiction to enforce our intellectual property rights. Should any provision of these terms of use be deemed invalid or unenforceable by any court with competent jurisdiction, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be replaced with a provision that reflects the intent of the original provision, to the extent permitted by applicable law. All other provisions of these terms shall remain in effect.
General
Any delay or failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these terms of use with respect to a breach by you or others shall not constitute or be construed as our waiving such right to act. We will not be held responsible for any breach of these terms of use caused by circumstances beyond our control.
These Terms of Use together with our Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to our services and supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings between you and us.
