Disclaimers

My Blog Disclaimer

The technical definition of a blog disclaimer is a legal statement to limit your liability and advise others that you cannot be held liable for information included on your blog. That sounds pretty scary right? However, I think it is important as a blogger to err on the side of caution and make anyone reading this blog aware of what I am about. I’ve been meaning to write this for a while now (too long).

This blog is a place for me to discuss my love of books. I am more than happy for people to comment on any of my posts – all viewpoints are always welcome! All opinions are my own and do not reflect the opinions of any organisations (i.e. publishers) that I work with. I am a hobby blogger and do this for my own enjoyment. I do receive, read and review Advanced Reader Copies (ARCs) but I am always honest in my opinions and make it clear when I have received a review copy.

I always try to ensure that the information I provide on this blog is accurate but I am only human and mistakes do happen from time to time. I am happy to update and correct any errors or omissions – just let me know either in the comments or by any of my contact methods listed.

The content of this blog is designed for entertainment purposes. I am not a guru (far from it!) and would never presume to provide any kind of legal advice. If anyone wants to chat about any issues I am more than happy to do so but please do not take this as any kind of professional guidance. I am in no way qualified for any of that!

I am not a professional. My opinions are just that – opinions. I can be wrong, misguided, completely out of touch – take your pick! I am just a person who loves books and wants to share that love with you all.

I reserve the right to change how I manage or run this blog. I may change my blog focus or content at any time (although that seems unlikely at this point since this book blog has now been running for almost 8 years!)

GIFs/Images used

GIFs used on my blog have been sourced from sites such as Tumblr and other related sites such as GIPHY. These will be credited where applicable. I do occasionally make my own GIFs which I am happy for people to use credit free!

Some of the images used will be from my own collection (photographs taken by myself). I do not mind anyone using my images but please seek permission from me first or at least give credit. 🙂

Otherwise, for any stock photo related purposes I generally use Pixabay because it has a wide selection of free to use images. I also occasionally use images from Design Cuts, Hungry JPEG and Creative Market along with clip art and design elements. These are purchased or offered free to download and use.

I always endeavour to make sure the images and elements used on this blog have permission from the artist/photographer for non-commercial purposes. My site is not monetized and offers no affiliate links – I’m a hobby blogger only. If an image has slipped through the cracks and you would like me to remove it from my blog, I would be happy to do so as soon as possible. Just contact me and I will arrange for its removal immediately.

FTC Disclaimer

Brin’s Book Blog, on occasion, receives ARCs (Advanced Reader Copies) of books for review. I will always give my honest opinions/thoughts on every review on this site and other related social media. I do not charge for these reviews nor do I receive any discounts, gifts, or any other type of compensation in exchange for reviewing these titles. I will always cite the source as ARC when I receive a review copy.

I review books in my own time and do not receive any monetary remuneration for doing this. The majority of books I read and review on this blog come from my own personal collection or occasionally from my local library.

Comments

Comments are always welcome. However, I do reserve the right to edit or delete any comments submitted to this blog (without prior notice) if they are:
