Terms of use
Last updated: [insert date]
1. About these terms
These terms explain the basis on which you may use the Lavantage website. By using the site you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.
In these terms, "we", "us" and "our" mean Lavantage. You can contact us at info@lavantage.co.uk.
2. These are not our engagement terms
These terms cover the website only. Any work we do for you is governed by the proposal and contract we agree with you in writing. Where there is any conflict between these terms and a signed engagement contract, the engagement contract wins.
3. The content on this site is general
Everything on this site is published for general information. It describes what we do and how we think, but it is not advice for your particular situation, and it is not professional, legal or financial advice.
Please do not act, or hold off acting, on the basis of anything here without speaking to us or another suitably qualified adviser about your own circumstances. We take care over what we publish, but we do not promise that everything on the site is complete or up to date at the moment you read it.
4. Enquiries and sign-ups
Sending an enquiry or booking a call does not create a contract between us, and does not oblige either of us to go further. A contract only comes into existence when we have agreed a written proposal or contract.
When you contact us, please give accurate information and do not send confidential material you are not entitled to share. If you need to send us anything sensitive, tell us first and we will agree a sensible way to handle it.
If you sign up for our insights emails, you can unsubscribe at any time by replying to any of them or emailing us.
5. How you may use the site
You may read the site, print or download extracts, and share links to it, for your own use or for use inside your organisation.
You may not:
- republish, sell or commercially exploit our content without our written permission;
- copy our content into your own materials and present it as your own;
- use the site or its content to train an automated system or model, or scrape it in bulk, without our written permission;
- misuse the site, including by introducing anything malicious, attempting to gain unauthorised access, or doing anything that damages or disrupts it;
- use our name, wordmark or branding in a way that suggests an association or endorsement that does not exist.
6. Intellectual property
The content, design, wording and graphics on this site belong to us or are used with permission, and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property rights. Nothing on the site transfers any of those rights to you.
7. Links to other websites
Where we link to a third-party website, it is because we thought it might be useful. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, their availability or how they handle your information.
8. Availability
We aim to keep the site available, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of the site at any time without notice, and we may update these terms. The date at the top shows when they were last revised.
9. Our responsibility to you
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.
Subject to that, we are not liable for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, loss of anticipated savings, or any indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of, or inability to use, this site, or from reliance on anything published on it.
If you use the site in the course of a business, you accept that this allocation of risk is reasonable given the site is provided free of charge and for general information.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them or from your use of the site.
11. Contact
If anything here is unclear, email info@lavantage.co.uk and we will explain it plainly.
