It is the advertiser’s responsibility to check the advert and ensure that it is correct at copy approval stage. No responsibility will be taken by Roundabout Publications for any errors subsequently identified (i.e. after copy approval).

Any advert/editorial/article/design which Roundabout Publications has created cannot be used in another publication or advertising medium (e.g. website) without the written approval of Roundabout Publications . A fee will be payable to Roundabout Publications if an advertiser wishes to re-use an advert/editorial/article/design in this way.
Roundabout Publications reserve the right to refuse/edit advertisements at our discretion.
Full payment is required by the copy deadline date to ensure publication of the advert. Any adverts for which payment has not been received will not be published.
Once an advertising package has been confirmed, either by an advertiser signing and returning the order confirmation form or by confirmation telephone call, e-mail or letter no refunds can be given if the advertiser subsequently decides that they wish to cancel the advertising package.
Advertisers who pay for their advert by standing order are advised that their advert will be printed in the magazine until such time as they notify Roundabout Publications that they wish to cancel. Standing orders must be set up so that payment is received by Roundabout Publications by the copy deadline date i.e. prior to printing. It is the advertiser’s responsibility to inform Roundabout Publications if they wish to stop running their advert. Notification of cancellation must be received by the copy deadline date. If the advertiser cancels their standing order without telling Roundabout Publications and the advert is published, the advertiser will be invoiced separately for the advertising cost.
Advertisers who pay by a cheque which is subsequently returned unpaid will be additionally invoiced for any banking fee charged as a result to Roundabout Publications , as well as an administration fee of £10.
