Effective date: 15 October 2026. Please read these terms before using the website.
1. Acceptance of terms
These Terms & Conditions form an agreement between you and Cinemavessa Crown Limited concerning access to Cinemavessacrown.com. By accessing or using the website, you agree to these terms to the extent permitted by applicable law. If you do not agree, you should stop using the website.
2. Nature of the website
Cinemavessacrown.com is an independent publication about film. Its editorial focus includes casino cinema, heist narratives, high-stakes dramatic settings, character studies, plot structure, directing, cinematography, editing, production design and screenwriting.
The website does not operate a casino, accept wagers, provide gambling accounts, process deposits or withdrawals, publish bonus offers, or direct readers to real-money operators. References to games, cards, tables, casinos or odds appear in the context of film criticism and narrative analysis.
3. Editorial opinions and accuracy
Reviews, ratings and interpretive essays express editorial judgment. A score is not an objective measurement and readers may reasonably disagree. We aim to distinguish factual production information from interpretation, but errors can occur. We may correct or update content without preserving every previous wording.
Film availability, release information, restoration status and regional distribution can change. Unless a page expressly states otherwise, our content should not be treated as a real-time availability database.
4. No professional or financial advice
Content is provided for film criticism, education and entertainment. It is not legal, financial, investment or tax advice. Discussion of fictional or dramatised gaming scenarios is not guidance on how to participate in real-world gambling and should not be used as a basis for financial decisions.
5. Intellectual property
The website’s original text, layout, branding elements, compilation, scoring framework and original graphics are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Subject to lawful exceptions, you may not reproduce substantial portions, republish articles as your own, remove attribution from our original work, or create a confusingly similar commercial publication based on our protected expression without written permission.
Film titles, character names and other third-party identifiers referenced for criticism remain the property of their respective rights holders. Their inclusion is for identification, commentary and analysis and does not imply affiliation or endorsement.
6. Limited personal use
You may view the website, save ordinary browser copies for personal reference, print reasonable extracts for private study, and link to our public pages. You may quote limited portions where permitted by law, provided the quotation is accurate, not misleading, and accompanied by appropriate attribution.
7. Acceptable use
You must not intentionally interfere with the website, attempt unauthorised access, introduce malicious code, overload infrastructure, scrape the site in a manner that materially disrupts service, misrepresent the origin of our content, or use the website to facilitate unlawful conduct.
Automated access that is proportionate, respects technical limits and is used for legitimate indexing or accessibility purposes may be permitted. We may restrict abusive traffic where reasonably necessary to preserve service availability and security.
8. External material and references
Our articles may discuss films, filmmakers, performers, books, historical events or public cultural material. Such references do not create a commercial relationship with the referenced rights holder. If the website later contains a link to an external resource, that link will be provided for context and does not mean we control the external resource.
9. User communications
If you send us feedback, corrections or editorial suggestions, you remain responsible for the content you provide. You should not send material that you are not entitled to share. Unless separately agreed in writing, submitting an idea does not require us to publish it, compensate you for it, or keep an unsolicited editorial pitch confidential.
10. Privacy
Our handling of personal information is described in the Privacy Policy. Cookie and browser-storage information is described in the Cookie Policy. Those documents form part of the website’s legal information and should be read together with these terms.
11. Service availability
We aim to keep the website available but do not promise uninterrupted or error-free access. Maintenance, hosting faults, security incidents, network conditions or events beyond our reasonable control may temporarily affect availability. We may modify, suspend or discontinue a feature or page where reasonably necessary.
12. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the website and its editorial content are provided on an “as available” basis. We do not guarantee that every article will be complete, current, free from typographical error or suitable for a particular purpose. Nothing in these terms excludes guarantees that cannot lawfully be excluded.
13. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Cinemavessa Crown Limited will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential or special loss arising solely from reliance on editorial content or from temporary inability to access the website. Where liability cannot legally be excluded, it is limited only to the extent the law permits.
These terms do not limit liability where doing so would be unlawful, including liability that applicable consumer or other mandatory law does not allow a business to exclude.
14. Indemnity for misuse
Where permitted by law, you agree to be responsible for loss directly caused by your deliberate unlawful misuse of the website or your infringement of another person’s rights through material you submit to us. This clause does not create liability for ordinary good-faith use of the publication.
15. Changes to the website and terms
We may revise these terms to reflect changes in law, editorial operations, security practices or website functionality. A material revision will be identified by an updated effective date. Continued use after a revision means the current terms apply from the date of that continued use, subject to applicable law.
16. Severability and waiver
If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to the extent they can operate independently. A delay in enforcing a right does not automatically waive that right. Any waiver must be clear and applies only to the specific circumstance for which it is given.
17. Entire agreement
These terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, constitute the principal website-use terms between you and us concerning public access to Cinemavessacrown.com, unless a separate written agreement applies to a specific relationship.
18. Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand, without limiting any mandatory consumer or privacy protections that may apply to you under the law of another jurisdiction. Subject to such mandatory rights, disputes connected with these terms may be brought before courts with appropriate jurisdiction in New Zealand.
