The person responsible for managing our obligations under the Online Safety Act 2023 (The Act) is Paul Oldham. You can reach him via email as detailed on our contact us page.
This forum allows the posting of text, images, and links and is overwhelmingly used by people living in the UK and so it comes under The Act.
We do not perform any age verification on users, and moreover this forum is readable when not logged in, so this service may be accessed by children.
This forum has a Moderation Policy.
All first posts from new users are embargoed and have to be reviewed by the editors before being released to the public.
All subsequent posts are reviewed by the editors soon after being released to the public, usually within a few hours, however there is a link on all pages to let users report content (this has never been used).
Users can complain about any aspect of our forum using our contact us page.
In the many years we have run this forum precisely zero posts have been released to the public which are either "illegal content" under UK law or fall within the 17 categories of content defined by Ofcom in Appendix A of their document.
On this basis we do not believe that there is a material risk of significant harm to individuals in the UK however we will review this risk assessment annually or more often if circumstances change.
Signed: Paul Oldham, Director
