      • 7.1.2 The Service will be as described, fit for purpose, and of satisfactory quality.
    • 7.2 Except as specifically provided in these Terms and Conditions and to the maximum extent permitted by law:
      • 7.2.1 The Service (including without limitation the Website) is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranty or guarantee of any kind (express or implied) other than those set out in these Terms and Conditions;

      • 7.2.4 IANG and its licensors will not in any event be liable in any way for any consequential or indirect loss or damage (save to the extent that damage to your device or other digital content which you own is caused by the Service as a result of our failure to use reasonable care and skill, in which case you may be entitled to compensation or we may be obliged to repair your device).
    • 7.3 These terms and conditions shall not limit any rights you might have as a consumer that may not be excluded or limited under applicable law nor shall it exclude or limit any liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or death or personal injury caused by IANG’s negligence.

 

  1. AGE RESTRICTIONS

IANG does not target the Service (including without limitation the Website) to users under 13 years of age. To use the Service you must be over the age of 13. By using the Service you therefore confirm that you are over 13 years of age and, where you are under 18, you confirm that you have your parent’s or guardian’s consent and that your parent or guardian has read and agreed to these terms.

 

  1. USER BEHAVIOUR RULES
    • 9.1 You further agree that you will not in any way conduct yourself in a manner which is illegal or which gives rise to civil or criminal liability or which might call into disrepute IANG.
    • 9.2 Where the Website allows you to share content with other users, we shall be entitled to remove, restrict, suspend or alter that ability for any reason in our sole and absolute discretion.
    • 9.3 You will cooperate fully with us to investigate any suspected harmful, immoral, illegal, fraudulent or other improper activity of any nature.
    • 9.4 If you feel that the behaviour of another user breaches these Terms and Conditions then please let us know by sending an email to XXXXX with details of the potential breach and/or the user responsible. We will take reasonable steps to deal with any breach.

 

  1. CONSUMER RIGHTS AND ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION
    • 10.1 These Terms and Conditions shall not limit any rights you might have as a consumer that may not be excluded or limited under applicable law.
    • 10.2 Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint you may choose to make, you may want to consider an alternative dispute resolution provider. The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution which can be found at: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. For the purposes of Regulation (EU) 524/2013, we are not required to use and we do not use an alternative dispute Resolution service.

 

  1. ADVERTS AND AFFILIATE MARKETING
    • 11.1 We are responsible for the placing of advertisements in our Services such as in our Website (to the extent we undertake this activity, and as may vary between our Services), but we do not control or review the specific content of those advertisements. We do, however, have control over the general types of advertisements that are placed at a high-level and take all reasonable efforts so that the Services do not contain any inappropriate advertisements.
    • 11.2 Please report any advert that you find offensive or inappropriate to XXXxXxXXX.
    • 11.3 If you click on any advertisement please be aware that you will be dealing with external companies responsible for that advert and you may be redirected to their services or website. IANG does not control the actions of these companies or the content of their websites or services.
    • 11.4 IANG does sometimes feature some affiliate links; on click, our affiliates can identify that you clicked through from our site. As our publication is free-to-access, these affiliate links help partly contribute towards the running cost of producing content for the Service and help us to provide content on a free-to-access basis. Affiliate linking deals do not impact our general editorial impartiality. When a post or content contains some links which are for affiliated products/purposes, as the content is not wholly ‘directly connected’ to the supply of those affiliate products then this will be clearly labelled as ‘Brand Collaboration’. This labelling – Brand Collaboration – helps our readers to clearly and obviously distinguish and identify between content that is independently editorial and content that contains some affiliate links not wholly ‘directly connected’ to the supply of those affiliate products.

 

  1. INDEMNITY AND REMEDIES
    • 12.1 You hereby indemnify (agree to compensate), and agree to defend and hold IANG and IANG’s affiliates, officers, directors, owners, licensors, service providers, partners, contractors, employees, agents and licensees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties“) harmless from and against any and all any liabilities, claims, costs and expenses (including without limitation legal expenses and lawyers’ fees) incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with: (i) any claim, damage, loss or liability arising out of any breach by you of these Terms and Conditions or arising directly or indirectly from your use or misuse of the Service; and/or (ii) any claim, damage, loss or liability which is a result of a breach of third party rights by you (including without limitation intellectual property or privacy rights) regarding any content or materials you provided to us in accordance with Clause 3.1. You shall fully cooperate with IANG in the defence of any such claim and IANG reserves the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you.
    • 12.2 You further agree that the subject matter of these Terms and Conditions is of a unique character with special value and that IANG would be irreparably damaged if the terms of these Terms and Conditions were not specifically enforced, and therefore you agree that IANG shall be entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies (including injunctive relief) with respect to breaches of these Terms and Conditions, in addition to such other remedies as IANG may otherwise have available to it under applicable laws.
    • 12.3 IANG’s licensors shall be third-party beneficiaries under these Terms and Conditions and shall have the express right to enforce its provisions and to enjoy the benefits of its protections.

 

  1. COOLING-OFF RIGHT

Where you make a Service related payment through a digital store (e.g. you make a Support Contribution to us through Steady) and you require a refund, that third party may allow you to get a refund in some circumstances. You should contact the third party through which you made a purchase, where applicable, in the event that you desire a refund. If you make a digital content or services purchase from IANG directly online, your statutory rights may entitle you to cancel the purchase within 14 days and to receive a full refund (your “Cooling-Off Right“). However, where you agree that we may begin to supply you with the Service before the end of that period, then you will no longer be entitled to change your mind about the purchase and obtain a refund. If you have made a purchase from IANG, have not begun using the content or service and wish to exercise your Cooling-Off Right you can contact us by email or post using the following form:

 

To: I Am New Generation Ltd
I hereby give notice that I withdraw from my contract for the following purchase: [INSERT ORDER ID / ITEM], for [INSERT DESCRIPTION], ordered on [INSERT DATE].

    • 17.2 Even if we delay in enforcing these Terms and Conditions and/or our rights, we can still enforce these Terms and Conditions and/or our rights later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms and Conditions, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking of any term of these Terms and Conditions, 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.
    • 17.3 We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms and Conditions to another organisation (such as, without limitation, in the event of a business restructure or acquisition). We will let you know if that happens and we will ensure that your rights under these Terms and Conditions are unaffected. You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms and Conditions unless we expressly agree to the transfer in writing.
    • 17.4 Except where expressly stated to the contrary in these Terms and Conditions, these Terms and Conditions does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce these Terms and Conditions.
    • 17.5 In the event that any provision of these Terms and Conditions (including, without limitation, any restriction) shall be held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision will be interpreted in such a way as to ensure it is enforced to the maximum extent permissible in a manner reflecting the parties’ intentions and the remaining portions of these Terms and Conditions shall, in any event, remain in full force and effect.
    • 17.6 These Terms and Conditions and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them, their subject matter or formation shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales and the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim. In addition you may have the legal right to bring proceedings in your local jurisdiction and, if this is the case, then you may bring proceedings there.
