      1. a.

        any failure by any other user or person in relation to whom you use the service to do anything they indicated. We are not responsible for things other users may do or may fail to do whether they are based in the UK or in another country;

      2. b.

        anything which another user may communicate to you on a chat whether this be offensive or illegal content or any false or misleading statements. We will take all reasonable care to ensure our users are aware of their obligations around what they can and can’t do with our services but we are unable to have complete control over this;

      3. c.

        any failure of any other person to return an item to you which is a result of any incorrect information you have provided on our website including, but not limited to, your contact details or the item description; or

        any communication you may have with another user of our service but with whom you have communicated with other than through our communication tools.

  4. 14.

    Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you

    1. 14.1.

      If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

    2. 14.2.

      This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or for breach of your legal rights in relation to the services as summarised at clause 9.2.

      Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

    5. 16.5.

      If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the services, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.

    6. 16.6.

      These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the services in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the services in either the Scottish or the English courts.
