The term "parties" will be used to refer to both you and us together.

The "Site" means the Chelsea website.

THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS ARE IMPORTANT. YOU SHOULD READ THROUGH THEM CAREFULLY AND SEEK LEGAL ADVICE IF THERE IS ANYTHING YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

1. Use of the Site

By accessing any part of the Site you agree to accept and be bound by these terms and conditions. If you do not agree with any of them then you should stop using the Site immediately.

Access to the Site is limited to those pages that are explicitly linked from the home page. Any access or attempted access to pages other than those explicitly linked will be deemed unauthorised access and a potential breach of the Computer Misuse Act.

We have the right to amend the contents of the Site or these terms and conditions at any time. Any changes will be posted on the Site.

3. Accuracy of Information

We do our best to ensure that the information provided on this Site is up to date and accurate. However, since some of the information is provided by third parties, we cannot guarantee this. Nor can we guarantee that it is suitable for your particular purposes, as the Site is, inevitably, general, rather than specific. Again, we exclude liability to the full extent allowed by law. If you intend to rely upon any information presented on this Site, you are responsible for checking its validity and accuracy and ensuring that it meets your specific requirements. However, this does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.

We do our best to ensure that this Site is free from viruses, bugs or other software or programs that may damage the operation of your computer.

The parties agree that English law will apply to these terms and conditions and that any disputes will be tried by the English Courts.
