Legal Notice & Website Terms

Effective Date | 10 August 2026

Siloam & Co.™ is the trading name used for this New Zealand sole-trader business, identified by NZBN 9429053830869.

References in these Legal Terms to “Siloam & Co.” are references to the sole-trader business operating under the Siloam & Co.™ trading name.

These Legal Notice & Website Terms apply to the use of the Siloam & Co. website.

They establish appropriate legal boundaries around this website and the work published through it. They do not redefine, qualify or diminish the Christian foundation or witness of Siloam & Co.

1. Siloam & Co.

Siloam & Co. is a Christ-centred creative ministry bearing witness only to what Jesus Christ has done through truth, testimony and creative expression.

This website exists as a public place of witness and includes or may include written testimony, Scripture, poetry, publications, photography, visual works, apparel designs, spoken word, audio, video, lyrical works and other forms of creative expression.

Siloam & Co. operates within earthly legal and commercial systems while remaining expressly Christ-centred in its identity, purpose and witness.

Use of this website is subject to these Legal Terms and applicable New Zealand law.

2. Nature of the witness

The testimony shared through Siloam & Co. bears witness to Jesus Christ and to what He has done.

The Christian foundation of Siloam & Co. governs the witness carried through this website; it is not incidental to it.

Nothing in these Legal Terms should be interpreted as qualifying, concealing or diminishing that foundation.

Where the witness refers to health, disability, suffering, grief, trauma, recovery, wellbeing or other lived experience, those references remain testimony within the context in which they are given.

They bear witness to what Jesus Christ has done; they are not presented as an individual clinical assessment, diagnosis, treatment plan, legal opinion or other personalised professional advice.

This distinction identifies the nature of the material. It does not diminish or reinterpret the testimony itself.

3. No professional or advisory relationship created by website use

Visiting, reading, listening to or otherwise engaging with material on this website does not, by itself, establish a professional or advisory relationship between a visitor and Siloam & Co.

Where an individual requires medical, psychological, legal, financial or other professional advice concerning their own circumstances, that advice should be obtained from an appropriately qualified or authorised professional able to consider those circumstances.

4. Copyright and original works

Unless otherwise stated, original Siloam & Co. material published through this website is protected by copyright.

This includes:

written testimony;
poetry and other literary works;
publications and excerpts;
photographs;
visual art and original design;
original artwork, graphics and design elements used on apparel;
original artwork, graphics and design elements used on stationery;
audio works;
spoken-word works;
lyrical and musical works;
video;
original website copy; and
other original creative material.

Publication of material on this website does not place that material in the public domain or transfer ownership of copyright to website visitors.

Where material appearing through Siloam & Co. is owned by another copyright holder, those rights remain with the relevant owner.

5. Sharing the witness

Public accessibility does not mean that original Siloam & Co. material is placed in the public domain.

Visitors may share links to publicly available pages of the Siloam & Co. website.

Brief excerpts of original Siloam & Co. material may be shared for personal, ministry and other non-commercial purposes, including through churches, Christian ministries and other non-commercial Christian contexts, provided that:

the credited source or author is clearly acknowledged;
authorship is not falsely attributed;
the substance, meaning or context of the material is not materially distorted;
the material is not used unlawfully;
the use does not falsely imply endorsement, partnership, sponsorship or affiliation; and
any rights belonging to third parties are respected.

This permission does not extend to reproducing, republishing, adapting, distributing or commercially exploiting a whole work or substantial part of original Siloam & Co. material.

Except where use is otherwise permitted by law, prior permission from Siloam & Co. is required before reproducing, republishing, adapting, distributing or commercially exploiting a whole work or substantial part of original Siloam & Co. material.

Nothing in this section restricts a use of copyright material that is permitted by applicable law without the copyright owner’s permission.

6. Integrity of testimony and creative works

Original Siloam & Co. material must not be falsely attributed.

Material that has been altered, adapted or materially edited must not be represented as an unaltered or authorised Siloam & Co. work.

Nothing published through this website may be used to falsely represent that Siloam & Co.:

endorses a person, organisation, product, service or cause;
has entered into a partnership, sponsorship or affiliation;
has authorised a publication, adaptation, reproduction or other use;
has made a statement it has not made; or
has approved use of its name, testimony or creative work where no such approval has been given.

Siloam & Co. reserves its applicable legal rights in relation to unauthorised use, false attribution or false representation involving its original works, names or marks.

7. Scripture quotations

Scripture quotations throughout the Siloam & Co. website are from the ESV® Bible (English Standard Version®), unless a different translation is expressly identified.

Siloam & Co. does not claim copyright ownership in the text of the ESV Bible.

ESV Scripture quotations on this website are used subject to Crossway’s applicable copyright, attribution and permission requirements.

ESV Copyright Notice

“Scripture quotations are from the ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®), © 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers. ESV Text Edition: 2025. The ESV text may not be quoted in any publication made available to the public by a Creative Commons license. The ESV may not be translated in whole or in part into any other language. Used by permission. All rights reserved.”

Permission applicable to Scripture quotations on this website is not assumed to extend automatically to other media or products.

Where ESV Scripture is used in another medium, including:

printed publications;
ebooks and other digital publications;
apparel;
stationery;
artwork and visual works;
photography products;
audio and spoken-word works;
lyrical and musical works;
video; or
other creative works,

the permission and attribution requirements applicable to that particular use will be considered before publication, production or distribution.

Where written permission, licensing, attribution or another form of authorisation is required for a particular use, Siloam & Co. will seek to comply with those requirements before that use is made.

8. Other third-party material

Third-party material appearing on this website remains subject to the rights of its respective owners.

Siloam & Co. does not claim ownership of third-party material merely because it is displayed, quoted, referenced or otherwise used through this website.

Where third-party material is used with permission, under licence, or as otherwise permitted by law, that use does not transfer ownership of the underlying rights to Siloam & Co.

Permission or a licence allowing Siloam & Co. to use third-party material does not, by itself, give website visitors permission to reproduce, adapt, distribute or otherwise use that material.

Any use by a visitor remains subject to the rights of the relevant owner and any use permitted by applicable law.

9. Trade marks and names

Siloam & Co.™ is used as a trade mark in connection with the work and activities carried under that name.

Other names, logos, marks and identifiers associated with works or vessels operating through Siloam & Co. may also be used or protected as trade marks where applicable.

Displaying a Siloam & Co. name, logo or mark on this website does not grant another person or organisation a licence or permission to use it for branding, commercial, promotional or misleading purposes.

Third-party trade marks and brand identifiers remain subject to the rights of their respective owners.

10. Permitted and prohibited website use

These Legal Terms are intended to preserve the rights and protections applicable to Siloam & Co., its original works, names, marks and website infrastructure under New Zealand law.

Relevant legal protections may include the Copyright Act 1994, the Fair Trading Act 1986, the Crimes Act 1961, the Trade Marks Act 2002 where applicable, and other applicable New Zealand law.

Visitors may access, view, listen to and otherwise use this website for lawful purposes consistent with these Legal Terms, including the sharing permissions set out in Section 5.

The website and material published through it must not be used in a manner that:

infringes copyright or other rights protected under the Copyright Act 1994;
infringes applicable rights in names, marks or branding;
reproduces, republishes, adapts, distributes or commercially exploits material outside the permissions granted in these Legal Terms, except where that use is otherwise permitted by law;

interferes with or attempts to disrupt the operation, integrity or security of the website;
attempts to gain unauthorised access to the website or associated systems;
introduces, transmits or distributes malicious code or other harmful technology through or in connection with the website; or
otherwise breaches applicable New Zealand law.

Nothing in this section prohibits a use that is expressly permitted by applicable New Zealand law.

Nothing in these Legal Terms limits any right or remedy available to Siloam & Co. under applicable New Zealand law.

11. External links

This website may contain links to third-party websites, social-media platforms, storefronts or other external services.

External links may provide pathways to works, vessels, references or resources connected with material appearing on this website.

Once a visitor follows an external link, that external service operates under the terms, privacy practices and technical environment of its own provider.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, the presence of an external link does not, by itself, constitute or imply endorsement, approval, sponsorship, partnership or affiliation by Siloam & Co.

Siloam & Co. does not control subsequent changes independently made by third-party providers to their content, systems, terms, privacy practices or availability.

Visitors should review the terms and privacy information applicable to an external service where relevant.

12. Accuracy and development of website content

Siloam & Co. takes reasonable care to present factual information about its activities, works and current status accurately and without creating a misleading impression.

This website bears witness to work that may continue to develop. Content may therefore be corrected, clarified, expanded, updated, archived or removed as appropriate.

Where Siloam & Co. becomes aware of a material factual inaccuracy in current website information, reasonable steps will be taken to correct or clarify it.

Material that is dated, archived or clearly presented as historical should be understood in the context in which it was originally published and may not reflect the current status of a work, vessel, project or activity.

The continued availability of older or archived material does not constitute a representation that every statement concerning timing, availability, development or status remains current.

Where current status, timing, availability or version is material, visitors should refer to the most recently published information.

13. Website availability

Siloam & Co. takes reasonable steps to maintain the availability, integrity and security of this website.

Continuous, uninterrupted or error-free access cannot be guaranteed.

Website access may occasionally be interrupted, limited or unavailable because of maintenance, technical faults, hosting or telecommunications issues, security events, third-party service interruptions, or circumstances outside the reasonable control of Siloam & Co.

Where Siloam & Co. becomes aware of a material issue affecting the website that is reasonably within its control, reasonable steps will be taken to assess and address that issue.

Nothing in this section excludes or limits any obligation or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under New Zealand law.

14. Liability and preservation of legal rights

Nothing in these Legal Terms excludes, restricts or limits any right, remedy, guarantee, obligation or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or limited under New Zealand law.

This includes, where applicable, rights and obligations arising under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, the Fair Trading Act 1986, the Privacy Act 2020, and other applicable New Zealand legislation.

To the extent permitted by New Zealand law, Siloam & Co. is not liable for loss arising solely from:

independent acts, omissions, content, systems or changes of third-party providers that are outside the reasonable control of Siloam & Co.;
temporary website interruption or unavailability caused by circumstances outside the reasonable control of Siloam & Co.; or
a visitor treating testimony or other material as individualised professional advice where Siloam & Co. has not presented or provided that material as such, as described in Sections 2 and 3.

Nothing in this section limits any right or remedy available to Siloam & Co. in relation to unlawful use of its website, infringement of its rights, false attribution, false representation, unauthorised access or other conduct addressed in these Legal Terms or under applicable New Zealand law.

15. Privacy

Siloam & Co. handles personal information in accordance with its Privacy Statement and applicable New Zealand privacy law, including the Privacy Act 2020.

The Privacy Statement explains how personal information associated with this website is collected, used, stored, disclosed, retained and otherwise handled, together with the rights available to individuals in relation to their personal information.

Where these Legal Terms and the Privacy Statement both concern the handling of personal information, the Privacy Statement governs that handling.

Nothing in these Legal Terms limits any privacy right, obligation or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under New Zealand law.

16. Selling environments and transactions

The Siloam & Co. website does not presently operate as a checkout or payment environment.

Where this website links to a separate online store, payment service, marketplace or other selling environment, that environment may be operated through a third-party platform and may be subject to the platform provider’s own terms, privacy practices and technical processes.

The use of a third-party selling or payment platform does not, by itself, transfer or remove any obligation that Siloam & Co. has as a trader, supplier or seller under applicable New Zealand law.

Where goods or services are offered for sale through Siloam & Co., including through a vessel operating under Siloam & Co., the relevant selling environment may include transaction-specific terms concerning matters such as products or services, pricing, payment, fulfilment, delivery, returns, cancellations and other matters relevant to that transaction.

Any such transaction-specific terms operate subject to applicable New Zealand law, including the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 and the Fair Trading Act 1986, where those Acts apply.

Nothing in these Legal Terms, any transaction-specific terms, or the use of a third-party selling or payment platform excludes, restricts or limits any consumer right, guarantee or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or limited under New Zealand law.

Before a Siloam & Co. vessel or selling environment begins offering goods or services for sale, the legal, privacy, consumer, intellectual-property and transaction requirements applicable to that particular release will be reviewed and addressed as appropriate.

17. Governing law, jurisdiction and preservation of legal rights

These Legal Terms and the use of this website are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of New Zealand.

Subject to any mandatory right or jurisdiction that cannot lawfully be excluded, the courts and tribunals of New Zealand have non-exclusive jurisdiction in relation to disputes, claims or proceedings arising out of or in connection with these Legal Terms or the use of this website.

Nothing in these Legal Terms prevents Siloam & Co., to the extent permitted by law, from seeking interim, injunctive, enforcement or other protective relief from a court or other competent authority where reasonably necessary to protect or enforce its copyright, names, marks, original works, website systems or other legal rights.

Nothing in this section excludes, restricts or limits any right or remedy available to Siloam & Co. under applicable law, or any right, remedy or jurisdiction that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or limited.

18. Changes to these Legal Terms

Siloam & Co. may review and update these Legal Terms from time to time to reflect changes in the website, its activities, works or vessels, applicable legal requirements, or other matters reasonably requiring the Legal Terms to be revised.

The current version of these Legal Terms will be published on this website together with its effective date or most recent update date.

Where a change is material to the rights or obligations arising from use of this website, Siloam & Co. will take reasonable steps to make that change appropriately visible.

Unless required by law or otherwise lawfully agreed, a later version of these Legal Terms does not retrospectively remove or diminish rights or remedies that had already arisen under applicable law before that version took effect.

Nothing in this section limits Siloam & Co.’s ability to revise its legal, privacy, intellectual-property or operational arrangements where reasonably necessary to protect the work entrusted to it, comply with applicable law, or accurately reflect the activities being carried through Siloam & Co.
