Registration

Contributing to this web forum requires registration. Certain information is mandatory – such as a name and a valid email address. The personal details which you provide on registration will not be disclosed to third parties other than in exceptional circumstances (eg: the prevention of a serious crime).

Moderation

Comments will be pre-moderated before being posted on the discussion forum. Comments will be moderated at least every working day. Where possible we will aim to publish accepted posts within 24 hours.

If a comment contravenes any of the full discussion rules it will not appear on the forum and will be returned to the participant by e-mail, along with a reference to the rule(s) contravened. The participant will be invited to resubmit their comment, after making appropriate changes.

Privacy policy

Where you provide personal information to the LJAweb.com website, for example when you participate in a web forum hosted on this site, it will be used only for the services you requested and as specified on the relevant pages of the site.

Freedom of Information

The information you provide will be subject to the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and Environmental Information Regulations, which allow public access to information held by the House of Commons/House of Lords. This does not necessarily mean that information about you in addition to what is published on the forum will be made available to the public as there are exemptions relating to information provided in confidence and information which is protected by the Data Protection Act 1998 applies. However, you should be aware that this may occur.
