Te Rūnanga is not responsible for any failure or delay in removing such content. You hereby consent to such removal and waive any claim against Te Rūnanga arising out of such removal of content.
You agree that if you violate these Terms and Conditions Te Rūnanga may at any time, and in its sole discretion, terminate your membership, account, or other affiliation with any Te Rūnanga website without notice to you.
