Website Terms of Use

About these terms

This website is operated by Buyer Consulting Ltd.

These terms apply to your use of this website and the content made available through it.

They do not form the terms on which Buyer Consulting provides consultancy or other professional services to clients. Consultancy work will be governed by the relevant proposal, agreement or terms of engagement.

Using this website

You may use this website for lawful purposes and to learn about Buyer Consulting, our work, projects, expertise, insights and activities.

You must not use this website in a way that is unlawful, fraudulent or harmful, infringes the rights of another person, or interferes with the operation, availability or security of the website.

Access to this website is provided on a temporary basis. We may change, restrict, suspend or withdraw any part of the website where reasonably necessary.

Information on this website

We aim to ensure that information published on this website is accurate, clear and reasonably up to date.

Website content is provided primarily for general information. It may be updated, corrected, expanded, replaced or removed from time to time.

Projects, case studies, articles, insights and other material may describe circumstances that were relevant at a particular point in time. They should not be assumed to apply unchanged to another organisation, project, sector or situation.

Where we publish figures, outcomes, impact measures or other evidence, those results relate to the circumstances described. They should not be interpreted as a promise or guarantee that the same or similar results will be achieved in another project or situation.

Professional advice

Content on this website is provided for general information and does not constitute advice tailored to your particular circumstances.

Nothing published on this website should be treated as legal, financial, medical, regulatory or other specialist professional advice.

You should obtain appropriate professional or specialist advice before taking, or refraining from taking, action based on website content where your circumstances require it.

References to law, regulation, policy, governance or legal frameworks are provided in the context of Buyer Consulting's work and expertise. They do not imply that Buyer Consulting provides regulated legal services.

Intellectual property

Unless otherwise stated, Buyer Consulting Ltd owns, or is licensed to use, the intellectual property rights in this website and its original content.

This may include text, articles, case studies, project descriptions, graphics, branding, illustrations, layouts, photographs, videos and other website material.

You may view, print or download reasonable extracts from publicly available pages for your own personal or internal organisational reference.

You must not reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, commercially exploit, systematically extract or substantially modify our content without our permission, except where permitted by law.

You may quote reasonable extracts from publicly available content provided that they are presented accurately, are not used in a misleading context and Buyer Consulting is appropriately acknowledged as the source.

Trade marks, logos, photographs, quotations and other material belonging to clients, partners or other third parties remain the property of their respective owners and may be subject to separate rights and restrictions.

Acceptable use

You must not misuse this website.

In particular, you must not knowingly:

• Introduce viruses, malicious software or other harmful code.
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, its server, administrative systems or connected services.
• Interfere with or disrupt the operation, performance or security of the website.
• Attempt to circumvent security, access restrictions or technical measures used by the website.
• Use automated systems to access, scrape, copy or extract website content in a manner that places an unreasonable burden on the website or substantially reproduces our content, except where permitted by law or expressly authorised by us.

• Misrepresent your identity or your relationship with Buyer Consulting.
• Use Buyer Consulting's name, branding or website content in a misleading way.
• Suggest that Buyer Consulting endorses an organisation, product, service, campaign or position where we have not expressly done so.

Nothing in these terms is intended to prevent ordinary search-engine indexing, legitimate linking or another use of website content that is permitted by law.

Links and third-party content

This website may include links to websites, platforms, publications, tools or services operated by other organisations.

These links are provided for information, reference or convenience. Unless we expressly state otherwise, the inclusion of a link does not mean that Buyer Consulting controls, approves or endorses the external website, organisation or its content.

We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their content, availability, security or privacy practices.

You should review the terms, privacy information and other policies that apply when using another organisation's website or service.

Website availability and security

We aim to keep the website available, secure and functioning correctly, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access.

We may suspend, withdraw, restrict or change parts of the website where reasonably necessary for maintenance, security, development, legal or operational reasons.

We take reasonable measures to protect the website and its infrastructure. However, no website or electronic communication can be guaranteed to be completely secure or free from harmful material.

You are responsible for maintaining appropriate security, software and device protections when accessing websites and online services.

Our liability

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits any liability where doing so would be unlawful.

In particular, nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted.

Subject to the above, and to the extent permitted by law, Buyer Consulting will not be responsible for loss or damage arising solely from:

• Reliance on general website information without obtaining advice appropriate to your particular circumstances.
• Temporary interruption or unavailability of the website.
• Content, services, security or actions of third-party websites or services that we do not control.
• Events outside our reasonable control.

Nothing in these terms affects any statutory rights or other rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted.

If you engage Buyer Consulting to provide consultancy or professional services, any liability relating to those services will be governed by the applicable agreement or terms of engagement rather than these Website Terms.
