2. Who We Are
We are a support organisation dedicated to helping individuals who have faced setbacks, mistakes, hardship, or difficult circumstances to rebuild confidence, access opportunities, and move toward a positive future. We also work with employers, training providers, and community organisations who share our mission.
3. Our Services
• We provide guidance, advice, job search support, CV help, interview preparation, personal development coaching, skill-building information, and connections to trusted opportunities and networks.
• All advice and guidance we provide is general in nature. We do not offer legal, financial, medical, or professional regulatory advice. If you need specialist support, we will signpost you to qualified, trusted providers.
• We aim to ensure all information on our website and shared with you is accurate and up to date, but we cannot guarantee it is always complete, error-free, or current.
• We do not guarantee employment, training places, housing, or any specific outcome. Our role is to give you the tools, support, and connections to improve your own chances and build your future.
4. Eligibility
• Our services are available to anyone aged 16 years or older, regardless of background, experience, or past circumstances.
• If you are under 18 years old, you confirm you have permission from a parent or legal guardian to use our services where applicable.
• You must provide truthful, accurate, and complete information when contacting us, registering, or applying for support. Providing false or misleading information may result in us stopping our support to you.
5. Your Responsibilities
• You agree to use our website and services only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not harm, offend, or disrupt others or our work.
• You must not use our services to harass, threaten, discriminate against, or harm any person or organisation.
• You are responsible for your own decisions and actions taken based on information or advice we share. We are not liable for any loss or damage resulting from decisions you make.

6. Confidentiality & Privacy
• We take your privacy very seriously. All personal information you share with us is handled in line with our Privacy Policy and UK data protection laws.
• We keep your details strictly confidential and will never share your personal information with any third party without your clear, explicit consent — unless we are legally required to do so by law, court order, or public safety obligation.
• You agree that any information you share with us is done so voluntarily, and you understand how we use and protect it.
7. Intellectual Property
• All content on our website — including text, logos, images, guides, and resources — is owned by or licensed to 2nd Chances Zone. You may not use, copy, or distribute any of this content without our prior written approval.
8. Limitation of Liability

◦ We are not liable for any loss, damage, cost, or expense (including financial loss, loss of opportunity, or emotional distress) arising from your use of our website or services, or from reliance on information we provide.
◦ We are not responsible for the content or actions of external websites, employers, or organisations we may link you to or introduce you to — these are separate entities with their own terms and policies.
• Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.
9. Changes to Services or Terms
• We may update, change, or withdraw any part of our website or services at any time, without prior notice, for operational, legal, or improvement reasons.
• We may update these Terms and Conditions from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and continued use of our services means you accept the updated terms.
