Website terms of use
The practical terms that apply when you browse the Forthwise website, download its materials or contact us through it.
Last updated 8 August 20261. About this website
This website is operated by Mark Kelly Consultancy Ltd, trading as Forthwise, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 16911331. Our registered office is Suite E2, 2nd Floor, The Octagon, Middleborough, Colchester CO1 1TG. You can contact us at takeaction@forthwise.co.uk.
2. Using the site
You may use this website for lawful business and personal information purposes. You must not misuse the site, attempt unauthorised access, introduce malicious code, interfere with its availability or use its content in a way that infringes another person's rights.
3. Information, not engagement advice
Website content is provided for general information and does not, by itself, constitute legal, financial, regulatory or consultancy advice. Circumstances differ, and no client relationship is created merely by using the site, downloading the brochure or sending an initial enquiry. Any consultancy engagement will be governed by separately agreed scope, responsibilities and commercial terms.
4. Accuracy and availability
We take reasonable care to keep information useful and current, but do not promise that every page will always be complete, error-free or continuously available. We may update, suspend or withdraw site content where reasonably necessary.
5. Intellectual property
Unless stated otherwise, Forthwise owns or is licensed to use the words, graphics, photography, films, downloads, design and other material on this site. You may view and download material for your own internal evaluation. You must not reproduce, publish, sell, adapt or exploit it commercially without prior written permission.
6. Links and downloads
Links to third-party websites are provided for convenience and do not amount to endorsement. Third parties control their own content and privacy practices. Please use suitable security controls when opening downloads; the company brochure is supplied for information and may be replaced as services evolve.
7. Liability
Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded. Subject to that, Forthwise is not responsible for loss arising solely from reliance on general website content, temporary unavailability, or third-party websites outside our control. Specific responsibilities for consultancy work will be set out in the relevant engagement terms.
8. Governing law
These website terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales will have jurisdiction, subject to any mandatory rights that apply.
9. Changes
We may update these terms when the website, services or applicable requirements change. The version published here is the current version.
