We may require users to re-validate their account if we believe they have been using an invalid email address.
    Maze Media (2000) Limited reserves the right to close accounts if any user is seen to be using proxy IPs (Internet Protocol addresses) in order to attempt to hide the use of multiple Maze Media (2000) Limited accounts, or if an non UK user pretends to be a UK user, or disrupts any of our services in any way.
    
    (iii) Safety:
