Membership terms

Who we are

Engage Local is run by Cheyanna Waters, a sole trader trading as Engage Local, of 41 Hillview Place, Broxburn, West Lothian, EH52 5SA. Email: engagelocal@proton.me.

Who can join

Membership is for businesses, sole traders and community organisations serving our towns. You must be 18 or over and have the authority to sign up for the business.

What you get

A listing on engagelocal.co.uk with the details you give us: business name, category, town, a short description, and the contact details, website and opening hours you choose to show.

Price and the Black Friday offer

• If you join by 23:59 on 30 November 2026, you pay £1 to join.
• From 1 December 2026, membership is £10 a month, taken by [payment provider] on [the 1st of each month / your join date].
• If you join after 30 November 2026, it is £10 a month from the start.
• Prices include any VAT due. Engage Local is not currently VAT registered.
• We will give you at least 30 days' notice by email of any price change, and you can cancel before it applies.

Cancelling

There is no minimum period. Cancel at any time by emailing engagelocal@proton.me. We will stop future payments and remove your listing within [7] days. Payments already made are not refunded, except where the law requires it or we have made a mistake.

Your listing

• You must make sure your details are accurate, lawful and yours to use (including any logo or photos).
• We check listings before they go live, and we can edit, refuse or remove a listing that is misleading, unlawful, offensive or outside our area. If we remove a paid listing for no fault of yours, we will refund the unused part of that month.
• Listing on Engage Local does not mean we recommend or guarantee your business.

Our responsibility

We will provide the service with reasonable care and skill. We can't promise any number of customers, views or enquiries, or that the site will never be down. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can't legally be limited. Otherwise, our total liability to you is limited to the fees you paid in the 12 months before the claim.

Ending membership by us

We can end membership with 30 days' notice by email, or straight away if you seriously break these terms or don't pay.

Your details

We use your details as set out in our privacy notice.

Changes and law

We may update these terms and will email members about important changes. These terms are governed by Scots law, and the Scottish courts have jurisdiction.
