4. What are the disclaimers?

Using the site at your own risk

You use our website at your own risk. While we make every effort to ensure our site material is current, accurate and reliable, we cannot guarantee this and are not liable if it is not. We also don’t endorse material on a linked or mentioned site.

We’re not liable for any loss or damage of any kind, however caused (including by negligence), through you using our site and its products and material.

We’re also not liable if your computer system, software or data is damaged or interfered with because you use our site.

This disclaimer applies to KDC, our officers, directors, affiliates, staff, contributors, independent contractors, representatives, third party content providers and licensors of our website content, products and services.

Accepting loss or damage

It also covers loss or damage because:
