Terms & Conditions
Are you paying attention? Then we’ll begin...!
Do I Have To Read This Legal Mumbo-Jumbo?
Yes!…it would be just marvelous for us and you if you did…! OK we get that this is the dull bit but alas it keeps us - and more to the point you - out of deep do-do. Have a squizz and see what you’re agreeing to…Ta!
So What's It All About Then?
theDateDiary.com is here for you to share and to laugh and enjoy with anyone and everyone (over 18), and the main thing is we’re a metaphorical notice-board for you to share stories of your lives. Call it a blog, call it a journal, call it a diary – write read and enjoy!
We can be accessed all over the world through the marvel that is t’interweb but please make sure you don’t do anything naughty that will upset your counterparts, your country and it’s laws…it’s just not cricket!
We're not some massive corporation or some huge web company, we’re just a few people trying to give everyone a chance to have a giggle and throw some light on the quagmire that is dating!
Money Money Money
theDateDiary is ABSOLUTELY FREE to use, costs you nada, zilch, no mullah, nothing. Good huh?
So You're Singing Up...
Firstly welcome! Your user name is what you use to log in to the service & this is the name you create when signing up. It’s up to you but we advise that you don’t use a name that could reveal your identity.
The e-mail address you provide us with is how we’ll contact you – this could be our fab weekly newsletter, some amazing new thing we think you should check out or (God forbid) if you’ve been naughty and need a good telling off.
Your e-mail address is tip-top secret and secure. If you’ve opted in we might help you to hear about other stuff we believe in, but if you don’t want this just opt-out when joining or unsubscribe at any time. We won’t take offence…and if we do, well that’s our problem!
Liability
By registering, you agree that theDateDiary and any parties associated with it, are not liable for any damages whatsoever, that could arise from your participation in the website either directly or indirectly. That includes, although is not limited to, any and all negative emotional, physical or financial impact upon yourself or anyone you relay the content of this site to.
If you break the rules by publishing other peoples information or that of the site, or mis-contextualise any information that has been published on this site by you or any others, then any ramifications of such actions are your responsibility entirely, including although not limited to breaches of intellectual copyright.
You still following??!
Your Pearls Of Wisdom Published...
You give us the right to display your ‘diary’ and any other content you post on the web and in any other media we choose. Any tales, comments or thoughts you add to the site may be repeated in any media form including but not limited to advertising without any fee, but you will always be credited with your theDateDiary username.
In a nutshell we reserve the right to publish your diary entries anywhere and everywhere but you’ll always get the credit using your Username and your personal details will never be revealed.
You cannot remove content once published (unless there’s a legal hiccup, in which case contact us and we’ll try and sort it out pronto). Although on the grounds it’s anonymous why would you?!
Everything from design to content on this site belongs to theDateDiary. Be a good chap/chapess and don’t steal them. Ta muchly!
Data Protection And All That Jazz
When you create an account we will ask you for information such as your name, gender, age and email address. The only details which automatically appear on your diary or any comments are your username, your sex and your age.
This site uses ‘cookies’ to remember you when you return – if you don’t want us to see this basic ‘log-on’ information then simply set your browser to reject them, but just bear in mind not everything will be quite as slick as it could be!
Any links to external websites found on theDateDiary are not our responsibility nor is any content found on them – and you are not allowed to post any links either.
We reserve the right to delete dated content, so please keep a copy of your own diary & of course we can and will remove anything that we think is bad.
We Solemnly Swear...
If we ever need to contact you it will be from a recognisable address (team@thedatediary.com)
If you want to stop receiving mails from us at ay time just mail us and say. Although obviously we hope you’ll never want that.
We’ll try to give you a great service at all times but obviously t’interweb can occasionally misbehave so bear with us if there’s problems – we’re working on it we promise!
We aim to get all submissions up as soon as possible and a lot of the time it will be instant. We do however check random entries and these may incur a short delay. Sorry for any inconvenience but we’re just thinking of you – honest!
You Solemnly Swear
Anything that happens in your ‘Username’ is your responsibility – so keep your password secret. If someone else uses your account it is your responsibility not ours so please guard your info!!
If you’re not 18 yet – sorry but come back as soon as you are! And don’t fib about this bit either...
You promise to be good – it’s about having a laugh and sharing experiences and tips. If we have any reason to think you’re up to no good or heaven forbid doing something illegal/suspicious through theDateDiary we will not hesitate to report you to the police. (OK so this sounds a bit heavy but we gotta protect everyone where we can!)
You will not publish, promote or display in any way, any illegal, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, racial, obscene, ethnically objectionable content whatsoever or any other that could cause harm and/or offense.
Everything you put on the site must be written by you and not infringe any other person's or company's copyright
You will not publish any content that does anything other than what this site is intended for (i.e dating chat and stories). That means you will not try and flog your belongings or use it to teach your Grandma how to play online poker. Just dating chat please. Thank you please. Yes yes. Please we thank you.
We don’t check every posting and don’t want to – you’re big kids and we like you, so the onus and responsibility is on you.If you find someone else being naughty or behaving inappropriately please tell us immediately.
If you’re reported being naughty we reserve the right to temporarily close down your user profile and diary whilst we have a look. If you have indeed been bad then we reserve the right to take you off the site permanently. And once again if it’s illegal…well we will be tell-tales and tell Mr Plod & his police chums – sorry about that!
Getting Hold Of Us
Just give us a yell if you have any issues…Drop us a note through the ‘Contact Us’ section. We’ll do our best to resolve your issue ASAP.
Sorry for the long ramblings but bottom line is YOUR CONTENT – YOUR RESPONSIBILITY! But most of all – ENJOY!
