Terms of Service

By using this website, you agree to abide by the following terms and conditions.

Purposes of the web site

This web site is intended for people who have been on CCIW camps, those interested in doing so, and their friends. It has the following purposes:

  1. To provide information about CCIW and the camps it runs to all those interested in attending
  2. To provide a friendly, fun, safe, healthy environment in which those who have attended camps can continue their friendships and encourage each other to love the Lord Jesus Christ.

Principles

When using the message boards and private messages, the following principles must be remembered:

  1. Colossians 4:6 "Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone".
  2. Romans 12:17,18 "Do not repay evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone."
  3. Hebrews 13:17 "Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you."

    Although that is written for a church context, the logic applies to this situation, where those in authority are the moderators and web site administrators.

Any use of this web site in ways which contradict or hinder the purposes and principles above is not allowed. More explicitly:

Rules

  1. All users of the web site must be shown respect, and attacks on others will not be tolerated.
  2. Crude language and blasphemy (taking God's name lightly) are forbidden.
  3. Use of the message boards for advertising unrelated or inappropriate web sites is not allowed.
  4. Moderators may remove or modify messages, and their decision is final.
  5. Usernames not appropriate for a Christian are not allowed.

If these rules are ignored the web site admins may limit the privileges of a user or ban them entirely.

Privacy policy

To sign up as a member, you must provide an e-mail address. This e-mail address will never be given to any third party. It may very occasionally be used to e-mail all signed up members with important information, or to e-mail an individual user with regard to their use of the web site.

By default your e-mail address is not visible to other users. You can opt to have it visible, and in this case it will be displayed in a manner that makes it virtually 'spam proof', so that the e-mail address will not be collected by spammers from this site. (Spammers are known to have programs that trawl web sites for e-mail addresses)

Every effort will be taken to ensure that e-mail addresses are not made visible without your consent, but due to the fact that other people and systems are involved we cannot guarantee that this information will remain private.

All other content contributed to the site is publically visible, and it is the responsiblity of the individual users to take any necessary precautions with regard to anything posted on the site. Also, we cannot gaurantee the confidentiality of private messages sent using the site.
