This acceptable use policy forms part of the terms of use Terms & Conditions between you and Music Gateway under which you may access and use the Site. This acceptable use policy applies to all users of, and visitors to, the Site. By using the Site, you confirm that you accept the terms of this acceptable use policy and that you agree to comply with them. If you do not agree to the terms of this acceptable use policy, you must not use the Site.

Not to reproduce, duplicate, copy or re-sell any part of the Site in contravention of the provisions of the terms of use Terms & Conditions

Not to access without authority, interfere with, damage or disrupt:

  • any part of our site;
  • any equipment or network on which our site is stored;
  • any software used in the provision of our site; or
  • any equipment or network or software owned or used by any third party.

Interactive Services

We may from time to time provide interactive services on the Site, including:

  • Chat rooms.
  • Bulletin boards.
  • Competition voting pages.
  • Open workspace areas.
  • Blog articles.
  • Business guidance with Q & A facilities.

Project Pitching & Communication (“Interactive Services”)

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).

We will do our best to assess any possible risks for users from third parties when they use any interactive service provided on the 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 the 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.

Any 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.

Content Standards

These content standards apply to any and all material which you contribute or upload to our site (contributions), and to any interactive services associated with it.
