Interactive Services
We may from time to time provide services which are interactive on our websites, which may include, without limitation:

- Bulletin boards.
Where we provide any type of interactive service, we will also provide you with clear information to you setting out the kind of service offered, whether it is moderated and what form of moderation is used (such as, for example whether it is technical or human).
We will make our best efforts to consider and assess any possible risks that exist for users (and in particular, for minors) from third parties when they use any of the interactive services which are provided on our websites, and we will consider in each case whether it is appropriate to use moderation of the relevant service (including what kind of moderation it is appropriate to use) taking account of those risks.

The use of our services which are interactive by any child is subject to the consent of their parent or guardian. We advise parents who permit their children to use an interactive service that it is important that they communicate with their children about their online safety, as moderation is not foolproof. Children who use any interactive service should be made aware of the potential risks to them.
Where we moderate an interactive service, we will normally provide you with a way of contacting the moderator, should any particular concern or difficulty arise.
