All sales or use taxes, import duties or additional customs charges must be borne entirely by you. We have no control over these charges and we expressly disclaim any responsibility or liability for them. Customs policies vary widely from country to country, and you may wish to contact your local customs office for further information.

8.2 Additionally, when ordering from us or any other Group Company, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all law and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods. Our international customers should be aware that cross-border deliveries are subject to opening and inspection by customs authorities. We may provide certain order, delivery and product information (such as the product's title) to our international carriers and such information may be communicated by the carriers to customs authorities in order to facilitate customs clearance and compliance with local laws. If the order is a gift, the package will be marked 'Gift' but the cost or value of the item may still be stated on the customs form and/or the package.

9. Our provisions of the Sites and/or Services

9.1 Subject to and without limitation to Clause 21, we will exercise reasonable skill and care in our provision of the Sites and/or Services to Registered Users and Subscribers, but from time to time faults may occur, in which case, we will use reasonable efforts to rectify them as soon as reasonably practicable.

9.2 We will endeavour to ensure all subscriptions or other Services (where applicable) are priced correctly on the Sites and/or in the Content. However, errors may occur. If such a pricing error is discovered, we reserve the right to give you the option of either cancelling your order for any particular subscription or other Service or reconfirming your order at the correct price.

For the avoidance of doubt, the above will constitute a breach of these Terms and may result in the immediate termination of your registration, subscription and/or licence, and without limitation, a claim for damages or otherwise, being brought by us against you.

10.6 To the extent that the terms of a multiple-user licence restricts licensed users to a particular category of individuals (e.g. employees of your organisation), you must notify us immediately, using the customer service contact details applicable to your registration and/or subscription, if a licensed user ceases to fall within the specified category.

10.7 Notwithstanding the restrictions in Clause 10.5 above, you are responsible for all access and use of any Site and/or Service by you or anyone else using any of your user names and passwords and for preventing unauthorised use of any of your user names and passwords.
