TERMS OF SERVICE

Introduction

 

These terms and conditions (“Terms of Service”), which include our Privacy Policy, govern the use of the credit broking service (“Service”) provided by Adelpha Finance Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”) to any business registered with us (“you”, “your”).

 

Adelpha Finance Ltd is incorporated in England & Wales with its registered office at 59 Middleton Road, London, E8 4EE (company number 10409159), authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (firm registration number 950925), and registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (reference number ZB337337).

 

We are a credit broker, not a lender.

 

Limitations of what we offer

 

Our Service is intended for your own business-related purposes only.

 

We do not provide debt counselling or debt advice. If you'd like support in this area, you may find contacting the Business Debtline useful.

 

We cannot guarantee that our Service will be successful for you, neither are we obliged to provide our Service to you.

 

Our Service is based on information from third parties over which we have no control, and may contain inaccuracies or errors.

 

Where you have not made us aware of your specific needs, it is your responsibility to ensure that any options presented through the Service meet your requirements.

 

Content and information provided as part of the Service may not be timely or correct, and will change without notice, meaning that it is for your general information and use only.

 

We expressly exclude liability for any inaccuracies, service failures or errors to the fullest extent permitted by law. Accordingly, we cannot provide any warranty or guarantee as to the accuracy, timeliness, performance, completeness or suitability of the information offered through the Service.

 

To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party shall only be liable to the other party for any loss or damage which results as a directly foreseeable consequence of its breach of this Agreement or negligence (except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct).

 

Nothing in these terms shall seek to exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury or any other liability that cannot be lawfully excluded or limited.

 

We may receive commission from Finance Providers for introductions we make to them. We have a Conflicts Policy to detect and manage any potential conflicts that might arise.

 

The Service is not intended as advice or to be relied upon by you in any way, including as the basis for making or not making any decision, and you should obtain your own independent financial, accounting, tax and/or legal advice concerning your activities in connection with the Service and any finance application and/or agreement.

 

You use and download information from the Service at your own risk and should use software to detect and disinfect viruses in any information you use and download.

The availability of third party sites, links, services or information via the Service does not constitute any recommendation, advice, endorsement or publication by us and we are not responsible for any such sites, links, services or information provided by any third party.

 

We reserve the right to change any aspect of the Service at any time without notice or to suspend access to the Service, or end it.

 

Your usage and responsibilities

 

By using the Service, you agree to notify us promptly of any changes in the details you have provided to us. You shall ensure that all information you provide to us is complete, true, up-to-date and accurate in all respects. You are solely responsible at your own cost and expense for creating backup copies and replacing any information you provide via the Service.

 

You agree that we and our lenders may carry out identity verification and credit checks on you and your owners or directors. You and your owners or directors acknowledge that credit reference agencies link together the records of you and anyone that you have advised is a financial associate (e.g. someone with whom you have a joint credit account) including previous and subsequent names of parties to the account. Links between financial associates will remain on yours and their credit reference files until such time as you or your associate successfully files for a disassociation with the credit reference agencies. We and any Finance Provider may take into account information about yours and your owners’ or directors’ financial associates in yours or their credit reference.

 

If at any time you wish to cease using the Service, you may contact us to request deactivation of your account. Within a reasonable time of this notification, we will remove any third-party data access you may have given us. Historical data will be maintained by us as described below.

 

If you have agreed to pay us for any aspect of the Service, you recognise that we may withdraw your rights to use the Service as a result of non-payment.

 

You agree not to use the Service in a way that harms our reputation, and you agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).

 

You agree to indemnify and hold us, our staff, officers, group companies and partners harmless from loss, damage or claim, made by third parties and/or incurred as a result of your breach of these terms.

 

We will make reasonable efforts to provide support for the Service during office hours by email on contact@adelphafinance.com, or by telephone on 02071128123.
