LCP Investment Fee Survey Terms & Conditions
1. Using LCP Investment Fee Survey
A. LCP Investment Fee Survey (the "website"), is being provided to you by Lane Clark & Peacock LLP (and any relevant group entities) ("LCP") through its direct arrangement with its client or prospective client (the "Client"). References to "we, "us" and "our" are to LCP, and references to "you" or "your" are to the Client and to the individual named user(s) expressly authorised by the Client (each an "Authorised User") where the context so requires. An Authorised User may use the website as part of that Authorised User's role as permitted by the Client but for no other purpose. Your use of the website is subject to these terms and conditions and any accompanying legal notices and access letters (or similar) (the "Terms"). The LCP Technology Services Privacy Policy (the "Privacy Policy") also applies to your use of the website.
B. By entering the site you are accepting the Terms and conditions. If you do not agree to the Terms, you must not use the website. If you are not comfortable with the terms of the Privacy Policy, you must not use the website.
C. If you are accessing the website as a professional adviser or other third party representative of the Client, you are accepting the Terms on behalf of yourself, the organisation that you represent (where applicable), and any of your representatives.
D. If you are subsequently registered on the website in connection with one or more additional Schemes, or one or more demo modules (see definitions below), your most recent acceptance of the Terms will amount to acceptance in respect of the additional Scheme(s) or demo module(s) by you on your own behalf and on behalf of the additional Client(s) or organisation(s) that you represent (where applicable).
E. We may amend the Terms and the Privacy Policy from time to time. Please check them periodically so that you can be informed of any changes. Your continued access to and use of the website will amount to continued acceptance by you on your own behalf and on behalf of the Client(s) or the organisation(s) that you represent (where applicable).
F. The (then current) Terms and the Privacy Policy shall remain in force for and apply in full to any successor or replacement website(s) to the website, including as a result of any changes to the website name or domain, unless and until replaced by new or updated terms and conditions and/or privacy policy.

2. Liability and reliance on information
A. We do not guarantee that the website, or any content on it, will be free from errors or omissions. You must liaise with us before making any decisions based on the contents of the website. This is because, in many circumstances, you will need additional guidance before using the information provided on the website as a basis for making decisions, and there may also be other factors to take into account.
B. The accuracy of information on the website relies on data and information provided to us as at a certain date and on data and information having been sourced from other websites and other sources (reference to other websites includes other websites or systems operated by us). It may be affected by changes to the data and information, issues for whatever reason with sourcing data and information through from other websites and other sources or external events. Certain data and information (including Client Data) published on the website may originate from members, from the Client, or from third parties who have provided the data and information in accordance with the Client's permission and/or as agreed. We accept no liability for any loss or damage as a result of incorrect data or information provided by the website due to inaccuracies in underlying data or information provided to us by you or on your behalf or provided directly by members or any other party. Any calculations are intended to be for illustrative purposes only and we do not accept liability for reliance on such calculations.

Accordingly, use of the website is at a person's own risk, and LCP makes no warranty or representation (in each case, whether express or implied) as to its fitness for purpose. To the extent permitted by law, LCP expressly disclaims any and all conditions, warranties and representations (in each case, whether express or implied) in respect of the website.
F. Regarding any person (including Authorised Users) other than the Client, to the extent permitted by law, we exclude all liability for any loss or damage, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, even if foreseeable, arising under or in connection with use of, or inability to use, the website or use of or reliance on any content on the website.
