Your Guinness World Records Account
If you use multiple logins for the purpose of disrupting a community or annoying other users you may have action taken against all of your accounts.
All accounts must be registered with a valid personal email address that you access regularly so that moderation emails can be sent to you. Accounts registered with someone else’s email address, or with temporary email addresses may be closed without notice. We may require users to re-validate their account if we believe they have been using an invalid email address.
GWR reserves the right to close accounts if any user is seen to be using proxy IPs (Internet Protocol addresses) in order to attempt to hide the use of multiple GWR accounts, or disrupts any of our services in any way.

This action may include any User Content posted by you being checked before allowed to go on the Site or a temporary or permanent suspension of your ability to participate in any or all of the Site’s community areas.
If you submit or share offensive or inappropriate content to or with any of the Site’s communities or anywhere else on the Site or otherwise engage in any disruptive behaviour on the Site, and GWR considers such behaviour to be serious and/ or repeated, GWR may use whatever information that is available to it about you to stop any further such infringements.
