1. GENERAL

The following Terms and Conditions will be governed by and construed in accordance with English law, and any disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.

We reserve the right to change all or any of these Terms andConditions at any time by posting the changes on this website.

The term "Business Opportunity Watch" in these Terms and Conditions of Trade means not only Business Opportunity Watch Limited and the website at http://www.businessopportunitywatch.com but also the electronic magazine Business Opportunity Watch and its editor and also its predecessor The BOARD Magazine.

The terms "We" and "Us" in these Terms and Conditions mean Marian Owen and Business Opportunity Watch.

ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS IS OBLIGATORY FOR ALL CUSTOMERS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY WATCH.


2. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF TRADE

Confidentiality Notice

Business Opportunity Watch is private and confidential and is provided to you upon your agreement that it is for your own personal use only.

Copyright Notice

Business Opportunity Watch is protected by Copyright.

This Copyright exists not only in the actual words used but also in the body of facts, analyses and conclusions contained in it, due to the skill, labour and judgement that has gone into the research and the conclusions.

Under the terms of the Copyright, apart from printing one copy for your own personal use, you cannot copy, print, reproduce in any form, or send to anyone else any part of Business Opportunity Watch either in whole or in part (for example, you cannot send any of it to another person, or to a company, or to a website or forum etc) in any form (not, for example, in hard copy nor in electronic format) or by any means without written permission from the Copyright Holder Marian Owen.

Where extracts of another company's marketing material are reproduced in Business Opportunity Watch for the purposes of analysis and comment the copyright in these extracts remains that of the company concerned.

Disclaimer of Liability

The information in Business Opportunity Watch is provided to you in good faith and is intended as the starting point for your own enquiries.

Whilst we make every effort to ensure that the information is correct, we nevertheless cannot guarantee that it is 100% free of errors and/or omissions and/or inaccuracies.

Therefore we cannot and we do not accept responsibility for any errors and/or inaccuracies and/or omissions.

You accept that you undertake business activities entirely at your own risk and you should seek appropriate professional advice in relation to your own specific circumstances.

Please note that the research, analysis and opinion contained in the Rating Reports on business opportunities in Business Opportunity Watch are based on the marketing material.

The editor of Business Opportunity Watch does not seek further explanations from promoters of opportunities because she believes they should get it right in their marketing material, which should contain sufficient evidence to substantiate the claims made; if the claims are extraordinary then she would expect to see a high level of factual evidence in the marketing material.

Normally Business Opportunity Watch advises readers of key questions which they should address to the promoter before they purchase the opportunity.

In Business Opportunity Watch, though the editor typically highlights a number of areas of conflicting information for an opportunity and questions which need to be asked and the Rating Report itself may be critical and may have a low rating or even a zero rating, THIS DOES NOT SUGGEST THAT THE PROMOTER OR HIS COMPANY OR HIS ASSOCIATES ARE ANYTHING OTHER THAN HONEST AND TRUSTWORTHY AND COMPETENT.

It simply means that, as a result of the research and analysis work carried out, there are questions to be asked in line with time-honoured TRADITIONAL AUDIT PROCEDURE in order for prospective purchasers to be able to make an informed decision on whether or not the business opportunity is workable.

Business Opportunity Watch sometimes contains the editor's comments on applicable law (for example when exploring whether purchasers have any rights to get a refund), and it is important to note that this is only her opinion and she is not a lawyer and readers should obtain appropriate professional advice.
