Terms for ads and posts
Applies when you post an ad or write a post on Marinpedia.
Who can advertise?
Private individuals aged 18 or over and businesses may advertise boats, engines, parts and equipment that they own or have the right to sell.
This is not allowed
- Stolen goods or items you do not have the right to sell.
- Illegal goods.
- Misleading listings, for example incorrect price, condition or model.
- Images or texts that someone else holds the rights to.
- The same item in multiple listings, or listings that do not relate to an item.
Text and images
You grant Marinpedia the right to display the listing's text and images on the site for as long as the listing remains. You confirm that you have the right to use the images and that they do not infringe anyone else's rights.
Listing review
Listings are reviewed before they are published. We may reject, recategorise or remove a listing that breaches the terms or the law, and we will tell you why.
Report a listing
Every listing has a Report listing link. You can also email us the listing's address and what is wrong. We will review the report and let you know what action we have taken.
Posts about boats and engines
On the boat and engine pages, owners can share their experiences and reply to each other. You need an account and a display name. The name is shown with your post.
- Write about your own experience of the boat or engine, or ask other owners a question.
- No advertising. If you're selling something, post an ad.
- No links.
- No personal information about others, such as names, phone numbers or addresses.
- No personal attacks and nothing illegal.
You give Marinpedia the right to display the post on the site for as long as it remains. Posts are owners' own experiences. Always follow the manual for your boat or engine.
Post moderation
All posts and replies are reviewed before they appear. We reject posts that break the terms or the law.
Report a post
Every post has a Report link. You report with your account or your email. We review the report, and if you gave an email you'll hear what we did.
If we reject or remove a post, we email the person who wrote it. The email says what we did, why and which rule applies. If you think the decision is wrong, you can email us and we will look at it again.
Delete post
You can delete your posts at any time from your account. If you delete your account, all your posts and replies are removed. We may also remove a published post that breaks the terms, and will tell you why.
