3. Agreement to receive requested advertising information
or sample products
3.1 Requesting offers
When you respond to offers using the Txt4Info txt, web and
email response mechanisms, you are explicitly agreeing to
receive advertising or samples from the associated advertiser
– for the offer you have explicitly requested.
When you register with the Txt4Info service, you are registering
with the purpose of receiving advertising material you have
already requested or may request in the future.
3.2 When Txt4Info sends you requested advertising material
or samples, it acts merely as a distributor for the advertiser.
Txt4Info itself makes no recommendations or representations
about products advertised, nor does it endorse or guarantee
those products, and Txt4Info may not be held liable for any
inaccuracy in the advertising material or any defect in the
product or service advertised. Furthermore, Txt4Info bears
no responsibility of any sort if an advertiser fails to honour
any promise made in advertising material distributed by Txt4Info.
3.3 If advertising material distributed by Txt4Info contains
an embedded hyperlink to a website operated by another organisation,
Txt4Info gives no guarantee as to the accuracy or suitability
of the content of such website, and it bears no responsibility
of any sort for the content of that website.
4. Use of your address for the delivery of information
4.1 If you register on the website or txt your details in
response to an offer, Txt4Info will be entitled to use your
email, postal address or phone number to send the requested
information or sample to you.
4.2 Where the requested offer is not fulfilled by Txt4Info,
you agree that Txt4Info may pass your details to the advertiser
or a nominated 3rd party fulfilment organisation for the purpose
of delivering the requested information.
4.3 Where offers involve a call back mechanism, you agree
that Txt4Info may pass your contact details to the advertiser
or their nominated call centre for the purpose of fulfilling
this call back.
4.3 Most offers are fulfilled through a single email, postal
mail, txt message or call back. However in some cases certain
offers may involve multiple communications between you and
Txt4Info, the advertiser or their nominated fulfilment agents.
4.4 When you request an offer, it does not give the advertiser
the right by default to continue to send you marketing information.
However in some cases this may be the explicit intent of the
offer. Where this is the case the advertiser must explicitly
request that you opt in to receive future communications.
If this opt in process occurs through the Txt4Info service,
then we will provide your details to the advertiser for this
purpose.
5. Ongoing communications from advertisers
5.1 As part of a particular offer, you may be given the option
to receive information directly from a particular advertiser.
If you select that option you accept that:
A. When Txt4Info gives the information to an advertiser under
Clause 4, we do so understanding that the advertiser will
use that information for the use indicated and must comply
with Txt4Info terms and conditions or the advertiser’s
own privacy policy.
B. Txt4Info will not have control over the communications
sent to you and will not be responsible to you or liable for
any failure by an advertiser to use information as set out
in the Txt4Info terms and conditions or the advertiser’s
own privacy policy.
C. Once information we hold about you has been given to an
advertiser under the above clauses, the fact that you may
terminate your registration on the Txt4Info website will not
automatically mean that you will no longer receive information
or products from the advertisers who have your email or postal
address because you explicitly gave them your permission to
send you ongoing communications. In order to have those advertisers
no longer send you information, you will need to contact them
directly.
6. Use of your personal information
6.1 When you register on the Txt4Info website, you provide
us with certain information. We will keep this information
confidential and use it only as you authorise.
6.2 You agree that we may provide advertisers or market researchers
with general information about you (age and/or gender for
instance) for statistical purposes only.
6.3 When you receive information directly from an advertiser,
that advertiser may give you the option to receive ongoing
communications directly from them. If you choose to give them
your permission, please be aware that Txt4Info may be under
an obligation to provide that advertiser with your email address
as well as other information provided by you, and you hereby
authorise and request Txt4Info to do so. If you only opt in
to receive only a particular offer and not ongoing communications,
the advertiser will be instructed that your details are only
to be used to fulfil the particular offer and may not be used
otherwise. However, once information has been provided to
the advertiser by Txt4Info, Txt4Info will no longer have control
over the use of that information by the advertiser and cannot
be held liable for any misuse of that information.
7. Terminating your Txt4Info registration
7.1 If at any time you wish to cancel your registration on
the Txt4Info website, simply select the ‘unsubscribe’
link that appears on all emails from Txt4Info. Alternatively,
you can reach the ‘unsubscribe’ link from the
‘Your Details’ section of the Txt4Info site. Thereafter,
you will cease to be registered and your personal details
will be removed from the system.
7.2 If you breach any of these terms and conditions, or if
Txt4Info in its sole and absolute discretion deems it advisable
to do so for any reason, Txt4Info may terminate your registration
without notice or prior warning, and you will not have any
claim against Txt4Info as a result of the termination.
7.3 After you cease to be registered, Txt4Info may retain
its records for the transaction information resulting from
your interaction with the Service. These Terms and Conditions
will continue to apply to that information.
8. Competitions
8.1 Txt4Info may run competitions on its website from time
to time. If it does, and if you enter the competition, the
relevant sections of these Terms and Conditions will apply,
modified as necessary, to information provided by you.
8.2 If any advertising material you receive includes an invitation
to enter a competition, Txt4Info makes no representations
as to the legality of the competition, or the enforceability
of your rights under the competition, and Txt4Info will not
be liable to you for any loss or expense you may incur as
a result of entering the competition, or as a result of the
person running the competition failing to run it properly.
