Terms & Conditions

Agreement to these terms

Welcome to colleenmoyne.com.au, the website of Australian writer and poet Colleen Moyne. In these terms “we”, “us” and “our” mean Colleen Moyne. By using this website you agree to these terms. They are deliberately short and fair — this is a simple author website, and the terms reflect that.

About this website

This website shares information about Colleen Moyne and her writing — her books, published work, and news and stories from the road — and provides a contact form so you can get in touch. The site does not sell products or take payments. If you buy one of Colleen’s books, the purchase is handled by the publisher or bookshop you buy from, under their own terms.

Copyright

All original content on this website — including poems, stories, memoir extracts, articles, news posts and other writing — is the copyright of Colleen Moyne unless otherwise stated. Photographs and images are the property of Colleen Moyne or are used with permission. All rights reserved.

You may not reproduce, republish, distribute or adapt any of this content without prior written permission. This includes reposting poems or stories on other websites or on social media. You are welcome to quote brief excerpts for criticism, review, study or news reporting, as permitted under the fair dealing provisions of the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth), provided the work is attributed to Colleen Moyne.

To ask about reprinting or any other use of Colleen’s work, please get in touch through the contact form.

Using this website

You agree to use this website lawfully and respectfully. In particular, you must not:

• use the contact form to send spam, advertising or abusive messages;
• attempt to interfere with the operation or security of the website; or
• use automated tools to scrape or copy content from the site.

The contact form

When you send a message through the contact form, the personal information you include is handled as described in our Privacy Policy. Anything you write in a message remains yours, but by sending it you give us permission to read it and to reply to you.

Links to other websites

This website links to other websites — for example, the Ginninderra Press online shop and Colleen’s social media pages. Those sites are not controlled by us, and we are not responsible for their content or their terms. A link does not mean we endorse everything on the linked site.

No warranties

The content on this website is provided in good faith for general information and enjoyment. While we do our best to keep it accurate and up to date, it is provided “as is”, and we make no promise that it will always be complete, accurate or available. Details such as book availability and pricing are controlled by publishers and retailers and may change without notice.

Liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of this website or your reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee or other right you may have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The current version is always the one published on this page, and the date it was last updated is shown near the top. Continuing to use the website after a change means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Australia, and any dispute about them or about this website is subject to the jurisdiction of the Australian courts.
