Terms of use
These terms apply to your use of ophors.com (the site), which is published by Aucuparia Holdings Ltd, company number HE 470831. By reading the site you agree to them. They are deliberately plain.
Using the site
You may read, print and share links to anything on the site for personal, non-commercial use. You may not scrape the site, republish articles in full, remove the author credit, or use the content to train or fine-tune a machine-learning model without written permission. Reasonable quotation with a link back is fine.
Who owns the content
Articles, page copy and site design are the copyright of Aucuparia Holdings Ltd unless stated otherwise. Photographs are either our own or used under licence from their owners, with the source recorded for each image. Trade marks and product names mentioned in articles belong to their respective owners; naming them is description, not endorsement.
Not professional advice
The site gives practical, general information about running a home. It is not legal, financial, medical, electrical, plumbing or safety advice. Where an article touches on anything that could damage property or hurt someone, such as using acids to descale, moving heavy furniture, or fixing things to walls, check the manufacturer's instructions and, where relevant, your tenancy agreement, and use your own judgement. If in doubt, ask a qualified tradesperson.
Accuracy
Every article is written or edited by Max Black and fact-checked against the sources listed at the end of it before publication. Even so, prices change, products are reformulated and we make mistakes. Content is provided as it is on the date shown, without any guarantee that it is complete or current. If you spot an error, tell us and we will correct it and note the update on the article.
External links
Articles link to manufacturers, government bodies, retailers and other sites as sources. We do not control those sites, are not responsible for what they say or how they treat your data, and a link is not a recommendation of the site as a whole.
Advertising and affiliate links
The site does not currently carry advertising or affiliate links. If that changes, ads will be clearly identifiable as such, and any affiliate relationship will be disclosed on the page where it applies. See the disclaimer.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, Aucuparia Holdings Ltd is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content, including any indirect loss. Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded. Your statutory rights as a consumer are unaffected.
Availability
We aim to keep the site online but do not promise it will be available at any particular time, and we may change or remove content without notice.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Cyprus, and the courts of the Republic of Cyprus have jurisdiction over any dispute, except that consumers resident in the UK or elsewhere in the EU keep the protection of the mandatory consumer law of the country they live in and may bring a claim in their local courts.
