Lindal & Marton Community Website Policies

Publication of Material

The Lindal & Marton Community Website is intended as a means for sharing information, to be used by anyone of any age-group with an interest in the community. The website is an independently-run free service, and is supported entirely by volunteers. Any individual or organisation may submit information for publication on the website, either directly to the publisher or by other means as appropriate, eg by 'signing' the guestbook.

All contributed material is reviewed by the publisher (or designated authority) before being published. Any material that is considered by the publisher to be inaccurate, inappropriate for the website, or unsuitable for children, is rejected. Views expressed on the website are generally those of the contributor, and do not necessarily align with the views of the publisher.

Any comments or complaints received by the publisher concerning published material will be reviewed and appropriate remedial action taken as quickly as possible. Please contact Neil Fleming directly or by e-mail to neil@lindal-in-furness.co.uk.

ICRAchecked Content Rating

Every page on this website links to a content rating label, issued by the Internet Content Rating Association (ICRA), an international, non-profit organization working to develop a safer internet. Users, especially parents of young children, can use filtering software to allow or disallow access to web sites based on the information declared in the label.

The website content rating is verified annually via the "ICRAchecked" process, where a member of ICRA's team reviews every page on the website, working to strict guidelines. The acceptance of the website in the ICRAchecked database is a recognition that at the time of review, the descriptors in the label accurately reflected the website content to which they applied. You can view the verified content rating for each page by clicking on the ICRAchecked logo in the page footer.

Currently, all pages with the exception of the Pub Guide are labelled as follows:

No nudity, No sexual material, No violence, No potentially offensive language, No potentially harmful activities, No user-generated content.

The Pub Guide is labelled as follows:

No nudity, No sexual material, No violence, No potentially offensive language, Depiction of alcohol use, No user-generated content.

Identification of Children

The Lindal & Marton Community Website does not publish personal details or names (which means first name, last name, or full name) accompanying photographs of children (under 18 years old), except where express permission has been received from a parent or legal guardian. Where consent has been obtained to publish photographs of children, a generalised label will be used to describe the photograph, eg Under 10s race at Lindal Gala.

Permission will be obtained from an appropriate responsible person whenever photographs of children are being taken, eg school headteacher, youth group leader, or event organiser. In the case of photographs directly relating to the Lindal & Marton Primary School Website school.lindal-in-furness.co.uk, authorisation to publish photographs of pupils will be obtained from the school headteacher.
