How this website handles personal information.
When you submit a contact form, vendor enquiry, or newsletter request, we collect the details you enter, such as your name, email address, telephone number and message.
We use enquiry information to deliver your message and respond to you. Vendor enquiries are shared with the vendor you selected. Newsletter details are used only where you have actively opted in.
Form submissions may be processed by our form-delivery provider and email provider. Before launch, replace this draft with a notice tailored to your organisation, providers, retention periods and lawful bases.
You can ask about, correct, or request deletion of personal information held about you, and withdraw marketing consent at any time. Contact the site operator.

Basic terms for using this directory.
Vendor information is provided for general information. Visitors should verify services, availability, qualifications, pricing and terms directly with each vendor before making arrangements.
Listing a vendor does not by itself guarantee or endorse their services. Help and information pages are general guidance and do not replace official, legal, medical or financial advice.
When you send an enquiry, your details are passed to the selected vendor so they can respond. Any agreement is between you and that vendor.
We aim to keep the website available and accurate, but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access or that every listing is complete and current.
This is a starter draft and should be reviewed before commercial launch.
