On

information and it is your responsibility to inform us of changes
to that information at info@pimpguides.com This is particularly important
if you subscribe to receive any Paid For Services. P.I.M.P is entitled
to rely on any information you provide to us.
Each

theft or unauthorised use of your ID or any payment information, you
must notify P.I.M.P immediately by e-mailing info@pimpguides.com

recommend that you do not select an obvious user password (such

you provide P.I.M.P with an email address that will result in any
P.I.M.P email we may send you being sent to you via a computer network
operated or owned by a third party (e.g. your employer or colleague)
then you warrant that you are entitled to receive those messages.
You also agree that P.I.M.P may refrain from sending messages to
you without notifying you, even if you have subscribed to receive
them, if we receive a request from a third party to stop sending
emails to you.

Warranties and Limitation of Liability
The
Content is only for your general information and use and is not
intended to address your particular requirements. In particular,
the content does not constitute any form of advice, recommendation,
representation, endorsement or arrangement by P.I.M.P and is not
intended to be relied upon by users in making (or refraining from
making) any specific decisions. Appropriate independent advice should

or other arrangements made between you and any third party named
on (or linked to from) the Website are at your sole risk and responsibility.
Any information that you receive via the Website may have ceased

entirely accurate. P.I.M.P cannot accept responsibility for any
errors or omissions, or for changes in the details given on the
Website, or for the consequences of any reliance on the information
provided by the same. Views expressed on shops, restaurants, clubs

reflect those views of the publisher. The descriptions given on
the Website contain an element of subjective opinion which may not
reflect the publisher’s opinion or dictate a reader’s
own experiences on another occasion. The pages contained in this
Website may contain technical inaccuracies and typographical errors.

and may at times be out of date. We accept no responsibility for
keeping the information in these pages up to date or liability for
any failure to do so. P.I.M.P is not responsible for any use of
the content by you outside its scope as stated in these Terms.

What
we cannot guarantee: Except as set out in the paragraph above, P.I.M.P
does not give any warranties in respect of the Website. To the extent
allowed by applicable law, P.I.M.P hereby disclaims all other warranties,
conditions or duties of every nature whatsoever (except any duties
of good faith), including without limitation, any implied warranties
of satisfactory quality, merchantability or of fitness for a particular
purpose, any express or statutory warranties, and any warranties
or duties regarding accuracy, timeliness, completeness, performance,
availability, lack of negligence or of workmanlike effort. Neither
do we provide any warranty that the Website is free from infection
by viruses or anything else that has contaminating or destructive
properties.
Our
Liability Exclusion
To the full extent allowed by applicable law, you agree that P.I.M.P
will not be liable to you for any losses which relate to your choices
or which are not a direct consequence of your use of the Website
(including loss of privacy or loss of or damage to data) or which
arise as a result of you using the Website outside the scope of
these terms and conditions.
In
addition to but separate from the above specific exclusion and to
the full extent allowed by applicable law, you also agree that P.I.M.P
will not be liable to you for any other indirect, special, consequential,
incidental, punitive or exemplary damages whatsoever that arise
out of or are related to your use of the Website.
Your
Remedies
P.I.M.P shall use reasonable endeavours to promptly remedy any faults
in the Website of which it is aware.
You
agree that your only other remedy (including for negligence) for
any damages that you incur arising out of your use of the Website
(to the extent P.I.M.P 's liability is not excluded by this Section
4) is as follows:
If
you have subscribed to receive any Paid For Services, your remedy
is limited to the direct damages you actually incur arising out
of your use of the Website. This is subject to a limit equal to
the annual fee paid by you to P.I.M.P pursuant to these Terms during
the year in which the damage is incurred. You may at your option
receive Paid For Services to the equivalent value of this limit
in place of monetary damages.
If
you have not subscribed to receive any Paid For Services, then to
the extent we cannot remedy the relevant fault in the Website, your
remedy is limited to receiving Paid For Services at no cost up to
the value of the direct damages you actually incur arising out of
your use of the Website. This is subject to a limit equal to the
value of the highest then applicable annual P.I.M.P Online subscription
fee. You may not receive monetary damages.
If
a court of contempt jurisdiction determines that either of the above
limits on our liability is unenforceable, then you agree that in
any event our total liability to you shall not exceed damages greater
than twice the value of the highest then applicable annual P.I.M.P
Online subscription fee.
Other
information
Without limiting the above, P.I.M.P is not liable for matters beyond
its reasonable control. P.I.M.P does not control third party communications
networks (including your Internet Service Provider) or the Internet
or the acts of third parties.
Notwithstanding
anything else contained in the provisions of this Section 4, P.I.M.P
's liability will not be limited in the case of death or personal
injury directly caused by P.I.M.P’s negligence.
