Access to this Internet site ('the Website') is provided subject to these Terms & Conditions and any amendments that may be made thereto by Simply Media TV Limited (the ‘Publisher’) from time to time. You ('the User') shall be deemed to have accepted these Terms & Conditions by virtue of you continuing to use the Website. If you do not wish to accept these Terms & Conditions, you should stop using the Website, altogether.
The Service
The Publisher provides a service ('the Service') wherein Users are granted access to streaming media and written content ('the Content') and retail services on the Website.
The Content
The Content includes a number of short video stories. A list of all the current video stories and a brief written description of each is freely available on the Website. The Content is not intended to be a definitive exposition of the subject in each video title. Each video story is relatively concise and should be considered a brief introduction to the issues cited. The number of video stories and the style in which they are presented may change from time to time in the sole discretion of the Publisher.
Downloading and Streaming
The video stories are made available to you by streaming on demand over the Internet. The Service does not permit you to download our video stories, where you retain a permanent copy on your computer. This means you never have a permanent copy of any of our content on your computer.
Viruses, sabotage and computer malfunctions
You shall be responsible for the installation of the appropriate media playing software on your computer that will enable you to view our video content. We recommend you install the latest Flash Media Player. However, we do not accept liability for your use of third party software or hardware, even where access to that software or hardware is available via the Website. Also, we do not accept liability for third party actions, such as, but not limited to the actions of computer hackers, who may sabotage the Website.

The Publisher may set up a registration and membership scheme for the Website, at which time the terms of the membership will be displayed on the Website.

Third-party Advertisers, Links to Other Sites
The Publisher allows other companies, called third-party ad. servers or ad. networks, to serve advertisements within the Website. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on the Website. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content you see.
The Publisher does not provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out. However, please note that if an advertiser asks the Publisher to show an advertisement to a certain audience (for example, men ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, men ages 18-24 who have viewed certain channels of content) and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach. The advertiser may also use information regarding your use of the Website, such as the number of times you viewed an ad (but not any personally identifiable information), to determine which ads to deliver to you.
You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers or ad networks (see links below) for more information on their practices and for instructions on how to opt-out of certain practices. The Publisher’s privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or web sites.

We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk.

However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.
If the :Publisher learns of a security systems breach, then we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. We may post a notice on the Website if a security breach occurs. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive notice of a security breach in writing.
