6: Content and content management

6.1 StayinWales.co.uk endeavours to provide online content management facilities for creation of, and editing, advertisements, but does not guarantee that these will be available continuously. StayinWales.co.uk will give no refund or repayment in any form if the content management facilities are unavailable for any reason. StayinWales.co.uk may withdraw online content management facilities, or revise their scope and functionality at any time and without notice. Any online content management facilities are provided 'as is', and StayinWales.co.uk will not enter into correspondence about any aspect of them.

6.2 StayinWales.co.uk provides support for aspects of its service which are covered by the subscription fee. Requests for support must be placed via the Support area of the content manager (accessed via the link titled 'Support' which is at the top of every page). Support requests sent by e-mail will not reach our support team, and will not be actioned. Owners agree to submit support requests which clearly describe the issue for which they are requesting support. Requests for support which are insufficiently specific about the issue being raised will be closed without response.

6.3 StayinWales.co.uk makes available a booking system which subscribed Owners may use. There is no charge made for this in the subscription fee, and Owners making use of it warrant that they understand and agree that, if they choose to use it, they do so at their own risk and will not request support regarding it. StayinWales.co.uk offers an optional support service for Owners using the booking system, for which the price is £100 per year. The booking system support service can be requested via the Support area of the content manager, and, following payment of the fee, StayinWales.co.uk will offer support for relevant issues regarding the booking system.

6.3 StayinWales.co.uk reserves the right to determine the design of the Website, the layout of its search results pages and individual advertisement pages, and the content and precedence of items published on each page.

6.4 The StayinWales.co.uk advertisement layout has been designed for the presentation of one letting unit. Within the self catering category this means one cottage, house, apartment, caravan or other type of unit. For advertisements in other categories, this means one accommodation establishment – eg bed and breakfast, hotel, hostel, campsite, caravan site, holiday park. Whilst StayinWales.co.uk may at its discretion permit the mention or description of more than one letting unit or accommodation category within one advertisement, the Owner understands and agrees that the advertisement will be listed in one category. In advertisements where the sleeping capacity of a Property is relevant – primarily self catering Properties with a specific number of sleeping spaces – the exact number of sleeping spaces is shown. A range showing 'from' and 'to' sleeping capacities is not displayed.

6.5 StayinWales.co.uk may at its discretion alter any of the pictures and/or text content which form the published content of advertisements.

6.6 Website and booking system links will be published at the discretion of StayinWales.co.uk. These can redirect to a website or booking system solely marketing the Property, and cannot be used to redirect to any website or booking system which promotes or enables booking of other properties.

6.7 All text submitted by Owners must be in upper and lower case. Mis-spellings and incorrect punctuation are not permitted. Text intended primarily for search engine indexing and repeated words or phrases which are superfluous to the meaning of the Advertisement when read by a human are not permitted.

6.8 All photographs uploaded by Owners must be of, or directly relevant to, the Property being advertised. Photographs with text overlays are not permitted.

6.9 StayinWales.co.uk may at its discretion, and without notice, withdraw access to online content management facilities from any Advertiser who uses it to contravene these terms and conditions.
