Terms of use

The check itself

  • Looking up a registration is free, and stays free.
  • We show what the public registers say and link to the record. We do not rate anyone and we do not decide who may trade.
  • Where a register does not answer something, we say so rather than guess.

Environment Agency information

  • This service contains Environment Agency information, used under the Environment Agency Conditional Licence.
  • Those licence conditions apply to your use of that information through this service, and form part of these terms.
  • Your permitted use of Environment Agency information obtained here is limited to one year.
  • You may not bulk-download, scrape, or redistribute the register data from this service. The Environment Agency publishes the full register itself, free, and that is the right place to get it.

Companies House information

  • Company data comes from Companies House under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

What we are not

  • We are independent. We are not the Environment Agency, Companies House, or any regulator, and we do not act for them.
  • A check here is not legal advice and does not by itself discharge your duty of care under section 34.
