You must comply with the Website Terms of Use at all times when accessing the Service and the Acceptable Use Policy set out below when posting any content through the interactive section of Celtic TV. Your failure to do so may result in suspension of the Service, and disclosure of your details to any court or competent authority for the purpose of enabling them to take further legal action against you.

 

Suspension and Termination

 

We may suspend or terminate the Service or your access to the Service at any time in our absolute discretion if: (a) your access to the Service is considered to be in breach of these Terms and Conditions or our website’s Terms of Use; (b) the Fee or any instalment of the Fee remain outstanding; and/or (c) a court or competent regulatory authority requires our provision of the Service to be terminated.

Maintenance

 

From time to time, your access to the Service may be suspended in order for work to be carried out relating to the upgrading or maintenance of the System or otherwise as necessary for the provision of the Service. We shall give as much notice as is reasonable in the circumstances and shall endeavour to ensure that such works are carried out as expeditiously as is possible in the circumstances and not during match time unless unavoidable.

 

Licence and Intellectual Property

 

As part of the Service we may provide access to certain video and audio footage, photographs, text images, statistics, logos and other media and intellectual property related to Celtic Football Club. All design, text, graphics, footage and the selection or arrangement thereof are the copyright of us or our respective licensees or licensors.

 

Access to the Service is granted FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY, and you are not entitled to download, copy decompile, reverse engineer, re-distribute or otherwise alter any material viewed via the Service, including, but not limited to, any files, codes, audio, or visual images incorporated in or generated by the software. You acknowledge and agree not to sublicense, assign, or otherwise transfer this license. The Service is not for viewing in commercial or other premises where more than one individual can view the Service unless otherwise agreed with us in writing. The use of proxy servers, virtual private networks or other similar technologies to circumvent this provision or otherwise is strictly prohibited without our prior, written consent.

 

Breach of this provision is a material breach of these terms and conditions and will lead to immediate termination by us.

 

Tax Outside UK and ROI

 

You may be subject to taxes on your registration, which are levied in respect of the Service. These duties and taxes plus any additional administrative charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs and taxation policies vary widely from country to country; you should contact your local customs or tax office for further information.

 

Your personal data

 

We are a data controller in respect of personal data submitted by you and will hold and process personal data for legal and administrative purposes (including sending you important service messages and sharing benefits related to your subscription) and, where we are permitted to, for marketing purposes.

General

 

Any notices we send will be sent to the email address you supply during the registration process. Any notices you send us should be sent by email to: webhelp@celticfc.com. Notices will be deemed to have been delivered at the time and date of sending of the email, which time and date are specified in the email.

 

If we fail to exercise or enforce any right we have under these Terms and Conditions such failure will not be deemed to be a waiver of that right nor will it prevent us exercising or enforcing that right on a later occasion.

 

We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the Service for domestic and private use. If you use the Service for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

 

We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms and Conditions to a group company or other third party. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.

 

If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

 

The contract shall be governed by Scots law and subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Scottish courts. Please note that disputes may also be submitted for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform.
