You must not use the web
site in any way that causes, or is likely to cause,

indemnify S.E.A and its affiliates for all claims
brought by a third party against S.E.A or its
affiliates arising out of or in connection with a
breach of any of these warranties.
Inappropriate content
Because S.E.A lists
thousands of properties for sale and to rent on the

the accuracy of every property so listed nor of the
appropriateness of every property or advert.
Accordingly, S.E.A operates on a 'notice and take
down' basis. If you believe that any property or
other advertisement on the web site contains
inappropriate content, please notify us immediately
and
email us. Once this procedure has been
followed, S.E.A will make all reasonable endeavours
to investigate and rectify the content complained
about within a reasonable time.

the web site, such as text, graphics, logos, icons,
images, digital downloads, data compilations, and
software, is the property of S.E.A, its affiliates
or its content suppliers and is protected by
international copyright and database right laws. The

Conditions of sale
This section deals with
conditions relating to the sale of products or
services by S.E.A to you.
Contract
When you place an order
to purchase a product or service from S.E.A, we will
send you an email confirming receipt of your order
and containing the details of your order. Your order
represents an offer to us to purchase a product
which is accepted by us only at the point when we
send email confirmation to you that we have
fulfilled your order.
Pricing
Despite every best
effort, it is possible for us to make and advertise
an incorrect price for a product or service. We
verify purchase prices as part of our fulfilment
procedures. If the correct price is lower than our
stated price, we charge the lower amount and fulfil
your order. If the correct price is higher than our
stated price, we will, at our discretion, either
contact you for instructions before fulfilment or
cancel your order and notify you of such
cancellation.
Children
S.E.A does not sell
products for purchase by children. If you are under
18, you may use S.E.A only with the involvement of a
parent or guardian.
Other businesses
Parties other than S.E.A
provide services, or advertise properties on this
web site. In addition, we provide links to the web
sites of affiliated companies and certain other
businesses. We are not responsible for examining or
evaluating, and we do not warrant or endorse the
offerings of any of these businesses or individuals
or the content of their web sites. S.E.A does not
assume any responsibility or liability for the
actions, product, and content of any of these and
any other third parties.
Electronic
communications
When you visit S.E.A or
send email to us, you are communicating with us
electronically. We communicate with you by email or
by posting notices on the web site. For contractual
purposes, you consent to receive communications from
us electronically and you agree that all agreements,
notices, disclosures and other communications that
we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal
requirement that such communications be in writing.
This condition does not affect your statutory
rights.
Losses
S.E.A will be
responsible for any losses you suffer as a result of
us breaching these conditions if the losses were
reasonably foreseeable to both you and us when you
commenced using the web site, or a contract for the
sale of products or services by us to you was
formed. We will not be responsible for any business
loss (including loss of profits, revenue, contracts,
anticipated savings, data, goodwill or wasted
expenditure) or any other indirect or consequential
loss that is not reasonably foreseeable to both you
and us when you commenced using the web site or when
a contract for the sale of products or services by
us to you was formed.
Alteration of service
or amendments to the conditions
We reserve the right to
make changes to our web site, policies, and these
conditions of use & sale at any time. You will be
subject to the policies and conditions of use & sale
in force at the time that you use the web site or
that you order products or services from us, unless
any change to those policies or these conditions is
required to be made by law or government authority
(in which case it will apply to orders previously
placed by you). If any of these conditions is deemed
invalid, void, or for any reason enforceable, that
condition will be deemed severable and will not
affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining
condition.
Events beyond our
reasonable control
We will not be held
responsible for any delay or failure to comply with
our obligations under these conditions if the delay
or failure arises from any cause which is beyond our
reasonable control. This condition does not affect
your statutory rights.
Waiver
If you breach these
conditions and we take no action, we will still be
entitled to use our rights and remedies in any other
situation where you breach these conditions.
