8. Our Reviews Policy

As of Jule 2015 visitors to the site are encouraged to review the businesses featured in the business directory.

We will publish all visitor reviews on the site providing they are longer than 75 characters (to encourage ‘real’ reviews), and also that we do not consider them to be malicious or include swearing.

When reviews are added directly through our website, a validation process is required before a review is made ‘live’. This includes the reviewer having to respond to an email that we send to them. If reviews are received verbally or in writing we will enter them ourselves.

All reviews on the site are ‘reviewed’ by ourselves. If you believe a review is not real then please contact us and we will investigate and, if appropriate remove it from the site. We take the integrity of our reviews very seriously.

If a business which has received a poor review asks us to or if we ourselves judge it appropriate to find out more, we will ask the reviewer to provide more specific information to fully understand their issue or complaint. If relevant we will also offer the business itself the opportunity to have its reply or comment published.

If we are notified that a reviewer has taken legal action against the business being reviewed, no reviews from that person about that business will be published on the site, either before, during or after legal proceedings are completed. If the business takes legal action and notifies us, the same conditions apply.

Terms for Submitting Reviews

These rules set out the terms of use for submitting reviews of businesses, services or places which appear on the site. Any submission of a review by you confirms your acceptance of the terms and conditions below.

1. Moderation

The reviews section of our web site is fully moderated. Every review submitted will be checked by us for compliance with our content standards before it is published. We will try to publish as many reviews as we can but we cannot guarantee that all reviews will be published. We also cannot guarantee how quickly reviews will be posted as this will depend on other editorial commitments.

Although the reviews are fully moderated, we are under no obligation to you or any other person to oversee, monitor or moderate the reviews or any other service we provide on our web site and we may stop moderating the reviews section at any time. We reserve the right to not publish any review which we deem to be potentially defamatory of any person or which we deem unlawful or in violation of our content standards or any third party rights.

We will determine, at our sole discretion, whether a review breaches our content standards. We reserve the right not to publish reviews, to amend content or remove reviews at any time from our web site without notice.

2) Comply with the law applicable in England and Wales and in any country from which it is posted.
3) Be relevant, constructive and helpful to other users of the site and be from your own genuine personal experiences.

To allow reviews to be published it is imperative that the reviewer has used the service or product of the business. 

We reserve the right to not publish and remove a review where it is found that there is no evidence of use of the business.

Feel free to explain any negative experiences, but your review will not be posted if we deem it to be in breach of these conditions.

1) Be defamatory of any person; obscene; offensive; hateful or inflammatory.

5) Breach any legal duty owed to a third party, such as a contractual duty or a duty of confidence or be in contempt of court.
