If a claim sounds untrue then we regard this as such and do not publish this on the Website.
(e) Where extracts have been displayed from third party sources or content has been generated and posted by a third party source (i.e. Content Providers, Registered Users, User Generated Content, etc.), these are in no way indicative of any kind of verifiable result, opinion, recommendation or otherwise.
