Changes to Terms and Conditions

Privacy, Terms and Conditions - general notices

These terms and conditions were last updated on 30th March 2021 and replace all previous terms and conditions for this site and for Notanant.

This site is provided and hosted by Notanant Limited. Notanant Limited may change, alter or withdraw any part of Notanant at any time (with or without notice to you) and may also change the terms and conditions. If applicable, notice will be given by message to your email address or mobile phone number and will be deemed to be served 3 hours after being sent by Notanant Limited. If you do not agree to the changes you should cease using Notanant and you may cancel your subscription to any Paid For Services in accordance with the details set out in Section 9. Notanant Limited will publish details of any changes to the terms and conditions in Section 11 below. You should regularly check Section 11 of these terms and conditions to see if any changes have been made - by using Notanant after we have posted the changes, you are agreeing to be bound by them.

References in these terms and conditions to "Notanant Limited" (or "we", "us" or "our") refer to the company operating Notanant Limited. See the Corporate Information section below for more details about these companies. References to "Notanant" refer to the system of scripts, programmes, databases, hosting services and pages that make up the Notanant system.

From time to time Notanant Limited may run competitions, free prize draws, promotions and surveys on Notanant. These are subject to additional terms and conditions that will be made available at the time they are run.

0. Privacy and cookies

Our default design is that visitors to Notanant are treated as anonymous unless they log-in or register on the site, or complete a contact form and openly identify themselves.

To control access and the technical display of certain features, Notanant uses first party, strictly essential cookies. These are: Cookielaw - which determines that the Cookie banner has been shown (we have to use a cookie to comply with the cookie law). ntntlive, edithide to toggle the display of the editbar, and a session ID PHPSESSID which are all valid for the session period - the time you are visiting the site.

If you are logged on other essential cookies are set, but by logging on you also consent to further essential cookies being used under the terms and conditions. By default we do not use non-essential cookies, nor do we add third party cookies. However, where linked content is added to Notanant sites, that content may introduce external cookies outside our control. We do not have access to these external cookies, and cannot use them and cannot block them.

We recommend that you use your browser to control cookies and other tracking mechanisms in websites in general - block third party cookies and use ad-block and private browsing - it's safer than ticking options on cookie banners, that themselves require cookies to be used to track and record your preferences. Privacy by form-filling is not privacy.

1. Access and Use

Notanant is divided into Sites (also known as Organisations in previous t&cs). A site is a delimited area on Notanant that contains information, members and services and may include other Sites. Each Site may be run and managed by a person or business separately from Notanant Limited on a subscription basis. The person with financial responsibility for paying the Site's subscription to Notanant is the Site Owner. Access to any Site is at the discretion of the Site Owner except where access is required by law, under a court order, or where Notanant Limited requires access for administration purposes or where allowed under these terms and conditions.

All material available on Notanant (the "Content") belongs to Notanant Limited or to Site Owners. Notanant Limited or Site Owners own all intellectual property rights (including copyright and database rights) in the Content and any selection or arrangement of the Content. You may retrieve and display Content on a computer screen, PDA or mobile telephone, print individual pages on paper (but not photocopy them) and store such pages in electronic form on disk or on your mobile telephone (but not on any server or other storage device connected to a network) for your personal, non-commercial use.

Code, script, knowledge and intellectual property in the Notanant system remain the sole ownership of The Dobney Corporation Limited licenced to Notanant Limited. You may not copy, decompile, amend or otherwise use the intellectual property without express permission of The Dobney Corporation Limited.

You may not use Notanant for any unlawful purpose. Except as expressly set out above, you may not reproduce, publish, broadcast, transmit, modify, adapt, create derivative works of, store, archive or in any way commercially exploit any of the Content without the express permission of the Site Owner or, where materials are owned by Notanant Limited, Notanant Limited. Without limitation, you may not do any of the following without prior written permission from Notanant Limited (and neither may you allow a third party to do any of the same):

redistribute any of the Content; or
remove the copyright or trade mark notice from any copies of Content made under these terms and conditions; or
create a database in electronic or structured manual form by systematically downloading and storing all or any of the Content; or
deep link to, frame, spider, harvest or scrape the Content or otherwise access the Content for similar purposes; or
use any machine, electronic, web based or similar device to read or extract the Content by automated or machine based means.

You acknowledge that "Notanant" and "on Notanant" "sent via Notanant" are trade marks and that you may not use without explicit permission from Notanant Limited. In particular "sent via Notanant" can only be used within emails created and sent through the Notanant communication system.

If you would like to link to any part of Notanant, please read and comply with the following guidelines and all applicable laws. A site or service that links to Notanant:

may display a Notanant logo to our design standard but must not otherwise use any Notanant Limited trade marks without permission from Notanant Limited;
may not remove, distort or otherwise alter the size or appearance of the logo;
must not in any way imply that Notanant Limited is endorsing it or its products or services;
must not misrepresent its relationship with Notanant Limited or The Dobney Corporation Limited or present false information about Notanant Limited or The Dobney Corporation Limited;
must not be a site or service that infringes any intellectual property or other right of any person or that otherwise does not comply with all relevant laws and regulations;
must not be a site or service that contains content that could be construed as distasteful or offensive.

Notanant Limited expressly reserves the right to require that any link in breach of these terms and conditions be removed and to take whatever other action it deems appropriate.

2. Privacy Policy and Registration

All information received by you from your use of Notanant will be used in accordance with our Privacy Policy below. This Privacy Policy does not affect your rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). For queries under GDPR contact help@notanant.com

ALL USERS of Notanant, including Notanant Limited must abide by the following Privacy Policy.

Privacy Policy

It is the responsibility of the Site Owner to ensure any personal details held in their Site(s) are treated in compliance with this Privacy Policy and GDPR. Your privacy is important to us!
Site Owners are required to comply with the UK's 1998 Data Protection Act and GDPR even if they are based outside the UK. This includes registration where applicable. Notanant is a subcontractor to Site Owners.
Notanant provides Sites with control over access allowing different levels of access to users logged in with a username and password (Active Members) than for other users (Inactive Members). Sites may contain personal details of Active Members and Inactive Members. If you believe that a Site has your details the Site must tell you if this is the case and must remove your details if you expressly ask them to.
Active members of Notanant are able to set preferences for how personal data is to be shared with others and how that information will be used. These preferences must be complied with at the date that the information is used. This includes control over the use of details for mailing, telephone and email purposes by the Site Owner, other members or any third parties.
If, on registration, you say you would like to receive newsletters from this site via email, the site owner can use your email address separately from the Notanant system but explicit consent must be given.
Active members may be invited to join other Sites on Notanant through the Notanant communication system. Active members must approve the request before becoming a member of any other Site.
Notanant Limited may make copies of any information on Notanant for the purpose of back-up or to enhance the way Notanant works but will not supply private information to third parties where permission has not be granted by the information owner.

On registration to any Site, you must provide Notanant Limited with accurate, complete registration information and it is your responsibility to update and maintain changes to that information on the applicable Notanant registration pages. This is particularly important if you subscribe to receive any Paid For Services. Notanant Limited is entitled to rely on any information you provide to us.

Each registration is for a single user only. On registration, you will choose a user name and password ("ID"). Notanant Limited does not permit any other person sharing your user name and password or access through a single name and password being made available to multiple users on a network. Notanant Limited may cancel or suspend your access to Notanant if you do this without further obligation to you.

You are responsible for all use of Notanant made by you or anyone else using your ID and for preventing unauthorised use of your ID. If you believe there has been any breach of security such as the disclosure, theft or unauthorised use of your ID or any payment information, you must notify Notanant.com immediately by e-mailing help@notanant.com. We recommend that you do not select an obvious user password (such as your name) and that you change it regularly.

If you provide Notanant Limited with an email address or mobile phone number that will result in any emails or SMS messages Notanant Limited may send you being sent to you via a computer network or telephone operated or owned by a third party (e.g. your employer or college) then you warrant that you are entitled to receive those messages. You also agree that Notanant Limited 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 or SMS messages to you.

Where you come across information about other individuals or businesses on Notanant you must heed the wishes expressed on Notanant by individuals not to be contacted. In particular where information on Notanant shows that someone chooses not to receive information or communications in one form or another, you may not contact that person in that form, either through Notanant or through alternative methods. You may not use information on Notanant to build lists that are not held on Notanant itself, or to scrape personal information.

Notanant itself does not use any personal information for marketing purposes. We may log and monitor IP addresses to prevent mis-use of our systems. We do not use IP addresses to identify individuals.

Requests for copies of personal data held on Notanant should first go through the Site Owner, as Notanant acts as a sub-contractor on their behalf. If the Site Owner does not respond within the legal timeframe, Notanant will provide necessary data.

Any person signed up to Notanant, eg by making a purchase from a Site Owner, can have their data removed by sending a copy of the assigned username and the word REMOVE to help@notanant.com

3. Content

Notanant is built around Sites that contain information, members and services that allow Site Owners and their members to share information with each other and with the general public. While Notanant Limited does not control the information/materials included within the Sites, it reserves the right (which it may exercise at its sole discretion without notice) to delete, move or edit the content, or the Sites themselves and to terminate your access to and use of any Sites and you waive any moral rights that you may have in regard to the content. Where a fee has been paid for the Site and Notanant Limited deletes, suspends, moves or edits these Sites the maximum refund due is the amount of the fee paid.
