Best in Britain (referred to as the "Website" or "Platform") is owned and operated by GO UN LIMITED, a company registered in Scotland under company number SC848195, with its registered address at Giles Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6BZ (referred to as "we", "us", "our", or the "Company").

These Terms of Use (the "Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you and GO UN LIMITED regarding your access to and use of the Website, including any guides, articles, data, calculators, search features, or tools provided on the Platform.

Unless otherwise stated, GO UN LIMITED owns the intellectual property rights, copyright, trademarks, database rights, and layout design of the Website and all materials published on it. This includes but is not limited to: editorial articles, business directories, directories classification, guide rankings, graphic designs, code, stylesheets, and data.

Subject to the licence below, all these intellectual property rights are reserved. You may view, download for caching purposes only, and print pages or other content from the Website for your own personal, non-commercial use.

You must not republish material from this Website, sell, rent, sub-licence, duplicate, copy, or redistribute any content for commercial purposes without our express written consent.

The extraction, gathering, copying, or monitoring of any data, directories, rankings, or text from this Website through automated means is strictly prohibited. You agree not to:

• Use any robot, spider, scraper, crawler, deep-link, or other automated data extraction tool, program, algorithm, or methodology to access, acquire, copy, index, or monitor any portion of the Website.
• Conduct web scraping, screen scraping, database harvesting, or data mining on the Website for any purpose, including building competing directories, websites, tools, or services.
• Use any content or data from this Website for machine learning, artificial intelligence training, or model fine-tuning without securing a separate, written licensing agreement from the Company.

Any unauthorized automated access or data harvesting will be treated as a material breach of these Terms, and the Company reserves the right to take legal action, block IP addresses, and seek damages.

When you submit information to us through our "Submit a Business" form, contact forms, or email, you warrant that all information is accurate, up-to-date, lawful, and that you possess the necessary rights to share it.

By submitting business details, descriptions, contact info, or list suggestions, you grant GO UN LIMITED a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, transferable, and sub-licensable licence to use, reproduce, adapt, publish, translate, edit, and distribute your submission in any existing or future media.

We reserve the absolute right to edit, refuse publication, update, or remove any submitted business information at our sole discretion. Submission does not guarantee inclusion in our guides or directory listings.

Certain entries in our guides may be marked as "Sponsored". These placements are commercial arrangements. While we review sponsored entries for editorial relevance and category fit, their inclusion represents advertising.

Commercial agreements, advertising packages, and lead-generation link campaigns are subject to separate, written advertising terms. The existence of a commercial partnership does not restrict our right to manage, edit, or adjust guides to maintain overall platform utility for readers.

The content, calculators, statistics, and tools on Best in Britain are provided for general informational and reference purposes only. They do not constitute professional, legal, financial, accounting, tax, real estate, medical, or investment advice.

While we make reasonable efforts to compile accurate data from public databases, APIs (such as Companies House, Nomis, and the Food Standards Agency), and direct submissions:

• We do not guarantee the completeness, accuracy, timeliness, or reliability of any listings, contact details, opening hours, prices, ratings, or financial calculations.
• Business standings, operational statuses, and compliance can change rapidly. You must verify all critical details, licensing, and pricing directly with the business, venue, or professional provider before entering into any transaction.
• Calculators (such as Stamp Duty, VAT, or Salary vs Dividend calculators) provide approximations. They should not be relied upon for statutory filings or tax planning. Consult a qualified professional.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, GO UN LIMITED, its directors, officers, employees, and contributors exclude all representations, warranties, and conditions relating to this Website and its use.

We will not be liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential loss or damage arising under or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Website, whether arising in tort (including negligence), contract, breach of statutory duty, or otherwise.

Specifically, we will not be liable for:

• Loss of profits, income, revenue, or anticipated savings.
• Loss of business contracts, commercial opportunities, goodwill, or reputation.
• Loss or corruption of data, software, or database information.
• Any losses resulting from transactions entered into with businesses, professionals, or venues listed or reviewed on our Platform.

Nothing in these Terms will exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited under Scottish law.

You hereby agree to indemnify and keep indemnified GO UN LIMITED, its officers, employees, and agents, against any losses, damages, costs, liabilities, and expenses (including legal fees and court costs) incurred or suffered by the Company arising out of any breach by you of any provision of these Terms, or arising out of any claim that you have breached any provision of these Terms.

Without prejudice to our other rights under these Terms, if you breach these Terms in any way, we may take such action as we deem appropriate to deal with the breach, including suspending your access to the Website, blocking computers using your IP address, contacting your internet service provider, and bringing court proceedings against you.

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Scotland.

Any legal actions, suits, or proceedings arising out of or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Scottish courts.
