3. Intellectual property

All content on this site, including text, structure, diagrams, logo and design, is the property of the site owner and is protected by copyright, unless credited otherwise. Quoting short excerpts with attribution and a link is fine and welcome. Wholesale reproduction is not.

Third-party names mentioned on this site, including Toastmasters International, are the trademarks of their respective owners. Mentioning them does not imply any affiliation, sponsorship or endorsement in either direction.

4. Nature of the content

The content on this site is general educational information about speaking skills. It is not medical, psychological, legal, financial or professional advice, and no professional relationship is created by your use of the site.

The disclaimer forms part of these terms and sets out the limits in full, particularly regarding speaking anxiety and mental health. Please read it.

5. Accuracy

Content is researched carefully, sourced where sources exist, dated, and corrected when errors are found, as described in the editorial policy. Even so, no guarantee is made that everything on the site is complete, current or error-free. Prices, membership figures and organizational details in particular can change after publication.

6. External links

This site links to third-party websites for verification and further reading. Those sites are not under our control. We are not responsible for their content, accuracy, availability or privacy practices, and a link does not constitute an endorsement.

7. No warranty

The site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, secure or error-free.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the site owner shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, this site or any content on it, whether based in contract, tort, negligence or any other legal theory, and whether or not we have been advised of the possibility of such damage.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

9. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the site owner from any claim or demand, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of your breach of these terms or your misuse of the site.

10. Privacy

Your use of the site is also governed by the privacy policy, which explains what limited data is collected and how it is handled.

11. Changes to these terms

These terms may be updated from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page changes when they are. Continued use of the site after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. Material changes will be noted here rather than made quietly.

12. Termination

We may restrict or terminate access to the site, in whole or in part, at any time and without notice, particularly where use breaches these terms.

13. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws applicable in the site owner's jurisdiction, without regard to conflict of law provisions. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in full effect.
