Registration and creating profiles

For some areas of the site, you may have to complete a registration process or create a profile for use in applying for something (e.g. a volunteer position, or to provide information about yourself to us).
Completion of this process will usually require creation of an account with a username and password or other identifier.
We will protect your privacy to the best of our ability, as stated in detail in our privacy policy, but you also agree to guard this as confidential information – which should be done carefully, as others may be able to access the information.
You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information at all times. You also agree that you will review, maintain, correct, and update such information in a timely manner to ensure its accuracy and completeness by using the means allowed for the relevant information or, when appropriate, by contacting us. If you provide (or we have reasonable grounds to believe that you provided) any information that is inaccurate, not current, or incomplete for the purposes intended, we may suspend or terminate your access, application, or participation, in addition to exercising all rights and remedies allowed by law.
You agree that all uses of the identifier established for you during a registration or similar process will be attributed to and legally bind you, and may be relied upon by us and third parties with whom we work as being a use made by you, even if someone else used your identifier. This is to ensure we can protect you and the site from fraudulent profiles and usage.
