any reasonable user terms made available within
the Content. |

If you believe there has been any
breach of security such as the disclosure,
theft or unauthorised use of your ID, you
must notify Learnthings immediately by emailing
customerservices@learnthings.co.uk. |

If Learnthings reasonably believes that your
ID is being used in any way which is not permitted
by this Agreement, Learnthings reserves the
right to request that your access rights are
cancelled. |

All Content belongs to Learnthings or
its licensors. Subject to clause 2.2, your Users may retrieve and
display the Content on a computer screen, print individual pages on
paper, use the Content for lesson planning (or related activities
within Learning Northern Ireland) and store the Content in
electronic form on disk and on your internal server (but not on any
other server or other storage device connected to an external
network unless Learnthings has agreed with your LEA to do this) for
your internal educational non-commercial purposes. |
| 2.2 |
Most of the Content is owned by Learnthings but
certain content is used under licence from
third parties ("Third Party Content") and
will be marked with the copyright notice of
those third parties. Some of the Third Party
Content will be subject to additional restrictions
- the relevant copyright notice will make
it clear where that is the case. You are responsible
for ensuring that you comply with such restrictions. |

Warranties |
| 3.1 |
Learnthings will use its reasonable
skill in making the Content available to you. However, because of
the number of sources from which Learnthings obtains the Content
and because of the nature of computer software and hardware, errors
and omissions occur and Learnthings does not give any warranties in
respect of the Content. In particular, you should not take the
accuracy of the information for granted and Learnthings makes no
warranty that the Content is free from infection by viruses or
anything else that has contaminating or destructive properties. All
implied warranties are excluded from this Agreement to the extent
that they may be excluded as a matter of law. |
| |

Limitation of
Liability |
| 4.1 |
Learnthings will use its reasonable
endeavours to resolve faults in the Content during the Licence
Period but because the service is free to Users you agree that
Learnthings will not be liable for any losses you may incur as a
result of your use or non-use of that Content. |
| 4.2 |
Learnthings will not be liable for
any consequential or incidental damages (including without
limitation, damages for loss of use or profits) arising in
contract, tort or otherwise from your (or your Users') use or
inability to use the Content or from any action taken (or refrained
from being taken) as a result of using the Content. |
| 4.3 |
Notwithstanding the above provisions
of this clause 4, Learnthings' liability will not be limited in the
case of death or personal injury directly caused by Learnthings'
negligence. |
| |
|
| 5 |
Changes |
| 5.1 |
Learnthings is continually seeking to
improve the Content. Learnthings reserves the right, at its
discretion, to make changes to any part of the Content (including
the addition of digital rights management tools) provided that it
does not materially reduce the content or functionality of the
relevant service. You will implement such changes as soon as
reasonable following the request of Learnthings or its nominated
agent. |

|
| 6 |
Links |
| 6.1 |
The Content contains links to other
web sites and resources, either directly or through frames and,
where possible, Learnthings will make clear where such links are
being made. Independent third parties provide these sites and

availability or content of these outside resources. |
