Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: 25th September 2026

Welcome to CymruLaw.com.

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of this website and, where applicable, the provision of research, content-writing and related professional services by Cymru Law.

By using this website, submitting an enquiry or commissioning services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood these Terms and Conditions.

If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the website or commission services.

1. About Cymru Law

Cymru Law provides services including:

• Independent legal research.
• Legal content writing.
• Business and employment law research.
• Human rights and disability research.
• Policy and legislative research.
• General business research.
• Research support for legal and professional organisations.
• Educational and informational legal content.

Cymru Law is operated by Renata Maziak Barnes trading as UK Website Designers.

The founder is currently studying towards an LLB Law degree and is seeking appropriate legal work experience alongside academic study.

Cymru Law is not a solicitors’ practice and is not regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

The founder is not currently a qualified solicitor, barrister or other regulated legal practitioner.

2. Legal Information and Legal Advice

Information published on CymruLaw.com is provided for general information, research and educational purposes.

Nothing on this website constitutes formal legal advice.

Articles, research material, commentary, guides and other website content should not be relied upon as a substitute for advice from an appropriately qualified and regulated legal professional concerning individual circumstances.

The law may change following:

• New legislation.
• Amendments to legislation.
• Court judgments.
• Tribunal decisions.
• Regulatory guidance.
• Government policy changes.

Although reasonable efforts are made to ensure information is accurate at the time of publication, Cymru Law cannot guarantee that every article will remain current indefinitely.

3. No Solicitor-Client Relationship

Use of CymruLaw.com does not create a solicitor-client relationship.

Sending an enquiry, receiving general information, commissioning research or corresponding with Cymru Law does not mean that Cymru Law has been formally instructed as a solicitor or legal representative.

Cymru Law does not undertake reserved legal activities where regulatory authorisation is required.

Anyone facing an urgent legal deadline, court proceedings, tribunal proceedings, limitation period or other time-sensitive legal matter should seek advice directly from an appropriately qualified legal professional.

4. Referral to Independent Legal Professionals

Where an enquiry raises an issue requiring formal legal advice, representation or another regulated legal service, Cymru Law may recommend that the individual seeks assistance from an independent solicitor, barrister, law firm or other appropriate professional.

Where Cymru Law has an appropriate professional contact, we may offer to refer or forward the enquiry.

Personal details or information relating to the matter will not ordinarily be forwarded for this purpose without the individual’s knowledge and agreement.

Any solicitor, law firm or other professional accepting a referral acts independently from Cymru Law.

They will be responsible for:

• Determining whether they can accept the matter.
• Carrying out any required conflict checks.
• Providing their own terms of engagement.
• Giving legal advice.
• Setting their own fees.
• Meeting their own regulatory obligations.

Cymru Law cannot guarantee that any professional will accept a referral or achieve a particular outcome.

5. Research Services

Research commissioned from Cymru Law may include examination of:

• Legislation.
• Case law.
• Government publications.
• Regulatory guidance.
• Parliamentary material.
• Academic research.
• Public records.
• Industry publications.
• Official statistics.
• Policy documentation.
• News and other publicly available material.

The precise scope of research will depend upon the project agreed with the client.

Research is provided on the basis of information available at the time it is undertaken.

Unless specifically agreed otherwise, research services do not constitute a legal opinion from a qualified solicitor.

6. Content-Writing Services

Cymru Law may provide:

• Legal articles.
• Blog posts.
• Website content.
• Research-led articles.
• Business content.
• Employment-law content.
• Disability and equality content.
• Human-rights content.
• Policy commentary.
• Educational material.

Clients commissioning content remain responsible for determining whether the material is suitable for their intended use.

Where an article requires formal legal approval, the client should arrange review by their own appropriately qualified legal professional before publication.

7. Scope of Work

Before commissioned work begins, the scope of the project may be agreed through:

• Email correspondence.
• A written quotation.
• An invoice.
• A project brief.
• Written instructions.
• Another agreed written method.

The agreed scope may specify matters such as:

• The subject of the research or content.
• Approximate word count.
• Research requirements.
• Delivery requirements.
• Fees.
• Revisions.
• Publication or usage rights.

Requests falling substantially outside the original scope may be treated as additional work and may require an additional fee.

8. Client Instructions

Clients are responsible for providing information and instructions that are reasonably necessary to complete commissioned work.

Cymru Law is entitled to rely upon information supplied by the client unless there is an obvious reason to question its accuracy.

Clients should notify Cymru Law promptly if:

• Instructions change.
• Information previously supplied was incorrect.
• A deadline changes.
• Additional requirements arise.

Delays in providing information may affect completion of the work.

9. Fees and Payment

Fees will normally be communicated before commissioned work begins.

Depending upon the project, payment may be required:

• In advance.
• By deposit.
• In stages.
• Upon completion.
• According to another agreed arrangement.

Any applicable payment terms will be stated within the quotation, invoice or written agreement.

Clients should ensure invoices are paid by the stated due date.

Additional work outside the agreed scope may be quoted separately.

10. Cancellation

If a client wishes to cancel commissioned work, they should notify Cymru Law as soon as possible.

Any amount payable following cancellation will depend upon:

• The nature of the service.
• How much work has already been completed.
• Any agreed payment terms.
• Whether the client is acting as a business or consumer.
• Any applicable statutory rights.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions removes any cancellation or consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

11. Consumer Rights

Where services are supplied to an individual acting as a consumer, applicable consumer-protection legislation will apply.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions is intended to restrict statutory consumer rights.

Contractual terms will be interpreted subject to applicable consumer law, including requirements of fairness and transparency.

12. Revisions

Where revisions are included within the agreed service, they should relate to the original instructions and project scope.

Substantial changes to:

• The subject.
• Structure.
• Purpose.
• Word count.
• Research requirements.
• Target audience.

may constitute additional work.

Where appropriate, an additional quotation may be provided.

13. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise agreed, original material created specifically for a client may be licensed or transferred for the agreed purpose following full payment.

Any specific intellectual-property arrangement may be confirmed within the project agreement or invoice.

Cymru Law retains ownership of:

• Its website.
• Branding.
• Logo.
• Website design.
• Original website content.
• Research methodologies.
• Templates.
• Internal processes.
• Material not commissioned by a client.

Clients must not represent Cymru Law’s general website content as their own original work without permission.

14. Cymru Law Website Content

Unless otherwise stated, content published on CymruLaw.com is protected by applicable copyright law.

Website visitors may read, share links to and quote limited portions of material for lawful purposes with appropriate attribution.

Visitors must not:

• Reproduce entire articles without permission.
• Republish substantial amounts of content.
• Present Cymru Law content as their own.
• Scrape or systematically copy website material.
• Sell or commercially redistribute Cymru Law content without permission.

Requests concerning republication or licensing should be made through the website contact page.

15. Guest Posts and Third-Party Articles

Cymru Law does not accept guest writers, guest posts or unsolicited editorial submissions.

Submission of an article, press release, proposal or promotional material does not create any obligation to publish it or respond to the sender.

Cymru Law retains full editorial control over content published on the website.

16. Backlinks, Advertising and Promotional Requests

Cymru Law is under no obligation to provide free backlinks, promotional coverage, advertising or editorial placement.

Any commercial advertising, listing, sponsorship or promotional arrangement that may be offered will be subject to separate terms.

Payment for a promotional service does not give an advertiser control over unrelated editorial content.

17. Artificial Intelligence and Technology

Artificial intelligence and digital tools may be used to assist with:

• Research organisation.
• Draft development.
• Content structure.
• Idea generation.
• Administrative tasks.

AI output should not automatically be regarded as authoritative.

Important legal authorities and factual information should be checked against appropriate sources where relevant.

Cymru Law retains editorial responsibility for material published under its name.

Confidential or sensitive information should not knowingly be submitted to third-party AI systems without an appropriate reason and suitable safeguards.

18. Confidentiality

Information provided privately in connection with commissioned work will be treated with reasonable care.

However, correspondence with Cymru Law does not automatically carry the same legal professional privilege that may apply to confidential communications between a client and their instructed solicitor.

Clients should therefore avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information.

Where formal legal privilege is required, advice should be sought directly from a regulated legal professional.

19. Data Protection

Personal information will be handled in accordance with the Cymru Law Privacy Policy and applicable UK data-protection legislation.

The Privacy Policy explains how personal information may be collected, used, stored and shared.

Visitors are encouraged to read the Privacy Policy alongside these Terms and Conditions.

20. Cookies

CymruLaw.com may use cookies and similar technologies.

Where consent is required for non-essential cookies, visitors will be provided with appropriate cookie controls.

Further information may be provided through the Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy and website cookie banner.

21. External Links

CymruLaw.com may contain links to third-party websites including:

• Government departments.
• Regulators.
• Courts.
• Law firms.
• Charities.
• Professional organisations.
• Academic institutions.
• News organisations.
• Research sources.

External links are provided for information and convenience.

Cymru Law does not control third-party websites and is not responsible for their:

• Content.
• Availability.
• Security.
• Accuracy.
• Privacy practices.
• Terms and conditions.

The inclusion of an external link does not necessarily constitute endorsement.

22. Website Availability

Reasonable efforts will be made to keep CymruLaw.com accessible.

However, uninterrupted availability cannot be guaranteed.

The website may occasionally be unavailable because of:

• Maintenance.
• Hosting issues.
• Technical faults.
• Security incidents.
• Software updates.
• Circumstances outside reasonable control.

Cymru Law may modify, suspend or discontinue parts of the website where necessary.

23. Accuracy of Website Information

Reasonable efforts are made to ensure published information is accurate and appropriately researched.

However, legal and regulatory information can become outdated.

Readers should always check the current legal position before relying upon information when making significant decisions.

Where a factual or substantive error is identified, Cymru Law may correct or update content in accordance with its Editorial Code.

24. No Guarantee of Results

Research, information, referrals and content provided by Cymru Law do not guarantee a particular outcome.

Cymru Law cannot guarantee:

• The success of a legal claim.
• The outcome of litigation.
• A tribunal decision.
• The outcome of a complaint.
• Acceptance of a matter by a law firm.
• A commercial outcome.
• Search-engine performance.
• Website traffic.
• Business growth.
• Regulatory approval.

Individual outcomes depend upon circumstances outside Cymru Law’s control.

25. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes or limits liability where it would be unlawful to do so.

Subject to applicable law, Cymru Law will not be responsible for losses arising solely because a visitor relied upon general website information as though it were personalised legal advice.

Cymru Law will also not ordinarily be responsible for failures or losses caused by circumstances outside its reasonable control.

Where services are commissioned under a separate written agreement, any additional liability provisions within that agreement may also apply.

26. Misuse of the Website

Visitors must not use CymruLaw.com:

• For unlawful purposes.

• To attempt unauthorised access to website systems.
• To harvest personal information.
• To impersonate another person.
• To interfere with website security.
• To send abusive, threatening or deliberately harmful communications.
• To infringe intellectual-property rights.

Access may be restricted where misuse is identified.

27. Communications

Communications sent through the Cymru Law website should relate to legitimate enquiries, services or professional matters.

Submitting a contact form does not guarantee a response.

Cymru Law reserves the right not to respond to:

• Spam.
• Repeated unsolicited marketing.
• Guest-post pitches.
• SEO solicitations.
• Irrelevant sales approaches.
• Abusive communications.
• Suspicious or fraudulent enquiries.

28. Complaints

If you are dissatisfied with a service provided directly by Cymru Law, you should contact Cymru Law in writing and explain the issue clearly.

Reasonable efforts will be made to review legitimate complaints.

Where an enquiry has been referred to an independent law firm or legal professional, any complaint about legal advice or regulated services provided by that organisation should be made through that organisation’s own complaints procedure.

Cymru Law is not responsible for determining complaints concerning services provided independently by third parties.

29. Force Majeure and Circumstances Outside Reasonable Control

Cymru Law will not be responsible for delay or failure caused by circumstances outside reasonable control.

This may include:

• Major internet or hosting failures.
• Power outages.
• Cyber incidents.
• Severe weather.
• Government restrictions.
• Serious illness or emergency.
• Failure of essential third-party services.

Where possible, reasonable steps will be taken to minimise disruption.

30. Changes to These Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions may be amended periodically to reflect:

• Changes in law.
• Changes in regulation.
• Changes to services.
• Changes to website functionality.
• Changes in business operations.

The latest version will be published on CymruLaw.com.

Changes will apply from the date the updated terms are published unless otherwise stated.

Terms applicable to an existing commissioned project will normally remain those agreed when the project was commissioned unless both parties agree otherwise or a change is required by law.

31. Severability

If any provision within these Terms and Conditions is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply so far as legally possible.

32. No Waiver

Failure to enforce a provision of these Terms and Conditions immediately does not necessarily amount to a waiver of the right to enforce it later.

33. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and Conditions are governed by the applicable laws of England and Wales, subject to any mandatory rights available to consumers under applicable law.

Any dispute will be subject to the jurisdiction of the appropriate courts, subject to any statutory rights that provide otherwise.

34. Contact

Questions relating to these Terms and Conditions can be submitted through the Cymru Law contact page.
