We make no promise that the Sites are appropriate or available for use in locations outside of the UK. If you choose to access the Sites from locations outside the UK, you acknowledge you do so at your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws where they apply.
As a condition of your use of the Sites, you agree not to:

We are not obliged to permit anyone to register with the Sites and we may refuse, terminate or suspend registration to anyone at any time.
We shall provide you with a user ID and password to enable you to access certain parts of the Sites, for example our customer portal or other content or services.

If we have reason to believe there is likely to be a breach of security or misuse of the Sites through your account or the use of your password, we may notify you and require you to change your password, or we may suspend or terminate your account.
In certain circumstances we may give you the ability to create further user IDs to enable other individuals to access certain parts of the Sites. You are responsible for checking the identity of those individuals and we accept no responsibility for any misuse of the user IDs created by you, or for the misuse of the Sites accessed by such user IDs.
