Moderation
Style HQ is fully moderated. Every comment submitted to Style HQ ("Comment") will be checked by us for compliance with our Content Standards and House Rules before it is published. We will try to publish as many Comments as we can but we cannot guarantee that all Comments will be published. We also cannot guarantee how quickly Comments will be posted on Style HQ as this will depend on other editorial commitments.
Although Style HQ is fully moderated, we are under no obligation to you or any other person to oversee, monitor or moderate Style HQ or any other service we provide on our site and we may stop moderating Style HQ at any time. We reserve the right to remove, or to disable access to, any Comment which we deem to be potentially defamatory of any person or which we deem unlawful or in violation of any third party rights. We expressly exclude our liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of Style HQ by any person in contravention of these Terms of Use. Where content has been posted by members of the public, the views expressed are theirs and unless specifically stated are not those of Dorothy Perkins.
Links from our site
Where our site contains links to other sites and resources provided by third parties, these links are provided for your information only. If you use these links, you will leave this site. We have no control over the contents of those sites or resources, and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them.

We will do our best to assess any possible risks to minors from third parties when they use Style HQ, and we will decide in each case whether it is appropriate to use moderation of the relevant service (including what kind of moderation to use) in the light of those risks.
