More information about website disclaimers
Our disclaimer document is intended for use in relation to the simplest kinds of website that need to comply with English law: information-only websites lacking any significant interactive features (other than hyperLinks and HTML forms). This disclaimer has been used on hundreds of thousands of websites.
The disclaimer has three main functions. First, it specifies the basis upon which the website may be used. In order to use a website, it must be copied, and so this takes the form of a copyright licence. Second, it attempts to limit and exclude (disclaimer) various types of liability that may arise from the use of the website. Third, it prompts the publication of certain information that must, under English law, be published on a website.
The disclaimer document covers the following areas:
- No warranties - the basis upon which website content is provided;
- Limitation of liability - limits on the website operator's liability;
- Exceptions - carve-outs for liability that cannot be limited by law;
- Content accuracy - a statement on the accuracy of website information;
- Not professional advice - clarifying that content does not constitute professional advice;
- Third-party websites - liability in relation to linked third-party sites;
- Unenforceable provisions - severability of invalid terms;
- Law and jurisdiction - applicable law and dispute resolution;
- Changes to this disclaimer - how and when the disclaimer may be updated; and
- Contact us - the website operator's contact details.
