Terms of Use & Sale

planningconstraints.com (the “Service”) is operated by Broadhurst Digital Limited(“we”, “us”), a company registered in England & Wales. Registered office: 18 St Nicholas Place, Derby, DE1 3GD. Company No. 12503471. VAT Reg. No. GB355920584.

General enquiries: contact@planningconstraints.uk. Billing, payment and VAT enquiries: planningconstraints@broadhurst.digital. By using the Service you agree to these terms.

The Service aggregates publicly available planning and environmental data from official sources and presents it for general information. It is a screening and research tool only.

The Service, including paid reports, is not: professional, legal, planning, surveying or financial advice; an official local authority search (such as an LLC1 or CON29); an official HM Land Registry document; a coal mining report; or a substitute for any of these. Do not make purchase, sale, design or construction decisions in reliance on the Service alone. Always verify findings with the relevant local planning authority and take professional advice appropriate to your project.

Data is drawn from official open sources including planning.data.gov.uk (Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government), Historic England, Natural England, the Environment Agency, the Mining Remediation Authority, HM Land Registry INSPIRE Index Polygons and Ordnance Survey, under the Open Government Licence v3.0 and related licences (see Licences & attribution).

These datasets may be incomplete, out of date or contain errors, and coverage varies by local authority. Some designations (for example certain tree preservation orders and Article 4 directions) are not yet digitised nationally and will not appear even where they exist. Search results reflect the data available from the sources at the moment of your search. Parcel boundaries are HM Land Registry index polygons: indicative general boundaries only, not the legal boundary of any title.

The free tier provides interactive on-screen searches. Paid products are: the Site Report Pass (£9.99 one-off), which unlocks the Full Survey Report, CSV export, whole-parcel and wide-radius search for one address (within approximately 500 m of the purchased location) for 30 days on activated devices; and Pro(subscription), which unlocks the same features for any address while the subscription is active. Licence keys are for the purchaser's use (or their organisation's reasonable internal use) and may not be resold or shared publicly. All prices include UK VAT at 20%; a VAT receipt is issued on every purchase via Stripe.

Payments are processed by Stripe; we do not see or store card details. Subscriptions renew automatically and can be cancelled at any time via the billing portal, taking effect at the end of the current billing period.

Paid content is digital content supplied immediately. By purchasing you expressly consent to immediate supply and acknowledge that you lose the statutory 14-day cancellation right once supply has begun. That said: if a report fails to generate, or you believe its data is materially wrong, contact us and we will put it right or refund you. Your statutory rights as a consumer (including under the Consumer Rights Act 2015) are unaffected.

You may not: scrape, bulk-download or systematically extract data from the Service; resell, sublicense or white-label the Service or its reports without our written agreement; use the Service to build a competing dataset; bypass technical or rate limits; or use the Service unlawfully. We may suspend access that breaches these terms.

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the maximum extent permitted by law we exclude all implied warranties, including accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose and uninterrupted availability.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for: loss of profit, business or opportunity; losses arising from decisions made in reliance on the Service or its reports; or any indirect or consequential loss. Our total aggregate liability to you in respect of the Service is limited to the greater of £100 and the amounts you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose.

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 be excluded by law. Nothing in these terms affects consumers' statutory rights.

We may update the Service and these terms; material changes will be posted on this page with a new “last updated” date. These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction (consumers may also rely on mandatory protections of their country of residence).
