Schedule 1
Standard Terms & Conditions of Business – Unified Dating Limited
Definitions
“Unified Dating”, “We”, “Us”, “Our” and “Ours” means Unified Dating Limited, Company Registration Number: 09421920; 8 King Edward Street, Oxford, OX1 4HL; (‘Unified Dating’ being a trading name of Unified Dating Limited) or its independent Host (as applicable).
“You”, “Your”, “Yours” means a client who participates in the Events, subject to these terms and conditions.
