Terms and Conditions – 12.01.26
1. About our terms
1.1 Warwick Economics & Development Ltd (“WECD” or “we”, “us” or “our”) provides its content on this website and applications that post a link to these terms and conditions of use (“Site”) subject to the following terms and conditions (the “Terms”). These Terms apply between WECD (we, us or our) and you, the person accessing or using the Site (you or your).
1.2 You should read these Terms carefully before using the Site. By using the Site or otherwise indicating your consent, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any of these Terms, you should stop using the Site For WECD’s policies related to the collection, use, and storage of our users’ information, please read our Privacy Policy.
1.3 We may periodically change the Terms without prior notice, so please check back from time to time. These Terms were last updated on 12 January 2026.
1.4 The Equality Act 2010, s 29(1) imposes a duty on website operators to make ‘reasonable adjustments’ to the provision of a service to ensure its availability to persons with a disability. This is so that a person with a disability is not put at a substantial disadvantage compared to people without disabilities in accessing the service. What is considered a ‘reasonable adjustment’ is subject to the individual situation of the website operator, so what is reasonable for a national online retailer will be considerably different to what is considered reasonable for a small online business. For more information, see Practice Note: Equality Act 2010—discrimination in the provision of goods, services and facilities and Website accessibility.
