The Agreement:
- Prodat agrees to supply to the Customer the Product subject to these Terms and Conditions and the Customer agrees that by purchasing the Product it accepts these Terms and Conditions, for the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any references to sale or purchase of Products, it is noted that the provision of the Product is under licence and nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall operate as or be deemed to be an assignment or transfer of the Product or any intellectual property rights in the Product.
- Purchase or use of the Product by the Customer shall be deemed to be acceptance of these Terms and Conditions (as amended from time to time). The Customer is responsible for reviewing regularly the information posted (currently http://www.promap.co.uk/promap/tandc.jsp) and continued use of the Product following such change indicates acceptance of the changes that have been made.
- The Customer is solely responsible for inputting data relevant to the order of a Product, and Prodat shall not be liable (nor shall the Customer be entitled to any refund) in the event such information is not provided correctly.
- Prodat reserves the right to refuse any order submitted by a Customer, which contains incomplete or incorrect information. Any costs already incurred by Prodat in connection with such order prior to refusal shall be borne in full by the Customer.
- These Terms govern the relationship between the Customer and Prodat, and are deemed to have been accepted by the Customer when it places any order for a Product or pays for any services provided.
- These Terms together with the price list referred to above, Prodat's privacy policy and any terms set out in its website, comprise the entire agreement between Prodat and the Customer. No prior stipulation, agreement, promotional material or statement should be treated as a variation of these Terms, nor any amendment or other Terms provided by the Customer operate to vary or replace these Terms.
-
The Product:
- Whilst Prodat will use reasonable care and skill in providing the Product to the Customer, the Product is provided to the Customer on the express basis that the Customer acknowledges and agrees to the following:
- the information and data supplied in the Product are derived from publicly available records and other third party sources and Prodat does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of such information or data; and
- the information and data supplied in the Product are derived solely from those sources specifically cited in the Product and Prodat does not claim that these sources represent an exhaustive or comprehensive list of all sources that might be consulted; and
- Prodat does not guarantee that all past or current uses or features will be identified in the Product; and
- the Products and other services provided by Prodat are professional business to business services and not intended for use or interpretation by persons other than professional persons skilled in the use of property and environmental information; and
- Prodat shall not be responsible for errors or corruption in the Product resulting from inaccuracy or omission in primary or secondary information and data, inaccurate processing of information and data by third parties, computer malfunction or corruption of data whilst in the course of conversion, geo-coding, processing by computer or electronic means, or in the course of transmission by telephone or other communication link, or printing; and
- the Product does not give details about the actual state or condition of the Plot nor should it be used or taken to indicate or exclude actual suitability or unsuitability of the Plot for any particular purpose, or relied upon for determining saleability or value, or used as a substitute for any physical investigation or inspection; and
- Prodat reserves the right to update, modify or delete the data comprising any Product at any time and does not give any warranty regarding the completeness or accuracy of any data provided as part of any Product.
-
Liability:
- Prodat accepts liability and provides warranties only as set out in this clause. As most of the information contained in the Product is provided to Prodat by others, Prodat cannot control its accuracy or completeness, nor is it within the scope of the Product to check the information at source. Accordingly, Prodat will only be liable to the Customer for any loss or damage caused by Prodat's negligence or wilful default and neither Prodat nor any person providing information contained in any Product shall in any other circumstances be liable for any inaccuracies, faults or omissions in the Product. The Data Originators do not warrant the accuracy of the information they supply to Prodat who therefore have no control over the content quality or reliability of the data in the Products and accordingly Prodat cannot and does not give any assurances regarding the quality or suitability or fitness for purpose of any of the Products. All Products are supplied on the assumption that the Customer has correctly input the relevant information.
- Prodat has prepared the Product for use only by the Customer and for no other purpose whatsoever and the Product should not be relied upon by any third party. Prodat cannot accept any responsibility and will not be liable to any third party for any loss caused as a result of reliance upon the contents of the Product. The Customer is to rely on its own skill and judgement in determining the suitability of the Product for its own purpose and use and the Customer is advised to use the Product with caution and not to base business decisions solely on the same. The Product is merely one of the tools available for the assessment of environmental, geological or other property or land-related risks and should be used in conjunction with other recognised methods of evaluation.
- All representations, warranties, guarantees and conditions (whether express or implied, by statute, Common Law, collateral or otherwise) as to fitness for any particular purpose, satisfactory quality or otherwise are expressly excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law.
- Nothing in this Agreement shall exclude or restrict Prodat's liability for death or personal injury resulting from the negligence of Prodat or its employees while acting in the course of their employment or arising from a breach of its statutory duty. Subject to the foregoing, Prodat shall not be liable to the Customer for loss of profits; or loss of contracts; (or, without limitation, other indirect or consequential loss or damage) resulting from any event or default by Prodat in the provision of the Product to the fullest extent permitted by law. Time shall not be of the essence with respect to the provision of the Product. Prodat shall not be liable for any delay, interruption or failure in performance of its obligations hereunder which is caused or contributed to by any circumstance which is outside Prodat's reasonable control, including (without limitation) war, flood, riot, Act of God, strike or other labour dispute (including those affecting Government officials), suspension or delay of service at public registries, change in the law, lack of power, telecommunications failure or overload, or computer malfunction.
- On receipt of the Product the Customer shall make a reasonable inspection to satisfy itself that there are no apparent defects or failures. Prodat will, subject as otherwise provided herein, accept no responsibility for any defect or failure in the Product notified to it (a) after 7 days following discovery of any defect or failure in the Product; or (b) after 6 months after receipt of the Product by the Customer. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Prodat's aggregate liability in connection with this Agreement or the provision or use of the Product, whether in contract or in negligence or in any other way, for damages or loss sustained or incurred by the Customer shall be limited to an aggregate amount not exceeding £350,000.
- The Customer shall have no claim or right of recourse against any Data Originator (save for Prodat, on the terms above), nor shall the Customer hold Prodat responsible for any selection of or retention of data, nor any acts or omissions by any third party supplier to Prodat. Prodat does not promise that the supply of the Products will be uninterrupted or error free or provide any particular facilities or functions nor that the data will always be complete, accurate, precise, free from defects of any kind, computer viruses, software locks or similar code or free from errors due to third party processing including any geo-referencing. The Customer assumes the entire risk of the suitability of the Products and waives any claim of detrimental reliance on the same.
-
Copyright & Confidentiality:
- The Customer acknowledges that the copyright, trademarks, database rights, design rights and any other intellectual property rights in the Product are and shall remain the property of Prodat and/or its Data Originators and this agreement does not purport to grant, assign, licence, or transfer any rights to the Customer in respect thereof. The Customer shall have no rights over any intellectual property contained in the Product, including without limitation, no right to sub licence the Product or any element of it.
- Subject to 4.viii, the Customer agrees that it will treat (and cause its employees, agents and servants to treat) as strictly private and confidential the Product and all information which it obtains from the Product and any disclosure to employees or servants of the Customer shall be for the Customer to conduct its internal business only. The Customer further agrees that it will comply with any specific directions with regard to security or confidentiality as notified by Prodat from time to time. The requirement in this clause to treat the Product as confidential shall include a requirement to maintain adequate security measures to safeguard the Product from unauthorised access, use or copying.
- The Customer agrees to hold Prodat indemnified against any losses, costs, claims and damage suffered by Prodat as a result of any breach by the Customer of the terms of this Clause 4.

- not to combine the Product with or incorporate such Product into any other information data or product;
- not to re-format or otherwise change (whether by modification, addition or enhancement) data contained in the Product;

- The Customer shall comply with the conditions for use of the Products as set out in the Annex hereto.
- The Customer acknowledges that the Product is confidential and it is intended for personal use or internal business use of the Customer only.
- Where mapping is provided by Ordnance Survey, such mapping contained in any Product is protected by Crown Copyright and must not be used for any purpose outside the context of the Product. Where mapping is provided by any other Data Originator, including without limitation, Collins Bartholomew Ltd such mapping is the copyright of such Data Originator and must not be used for any purpose outside the context of the Product.
- Subject to clause 4.vii and 4.x copying in whole or any part by any means of the map prints or run on copies provided with the Product is not permitted without appropriate licensing from the relevant Data Originator. The Customer must already be in possession of or obtain a valid Ordnance Survey Business Use Licence if it wishes to make any further copies of any Ordnance Survey maps supplied with or forming all or part of any Product.
- The Customer is permitted to produce printed output from Promap for resale to End Users for such End User's personal use only.

- The Customer shall use the Product for a period of 12 months from the date the Product is received by the Customer only and shall forthwith thereafter or forthwith on termination for whatever reason destroy all copies of the Product howsoever stored and shall certify on request to Prodat that no copies have been retained and no further use shall be made of the Product.

- Any Data Originator shall be entitled to enforce any of the terms set out in this agreement as if it were a party hereto.
-
General:
- Promotional materials or samples supplied by Prodat do not form part of this Agreement. Each of the clauses and sub-clauses of these Terms and Conditions is distinct and severable. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions shall be determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remainder of these Terms and Conditions shall continue to be valid, legal and enforceable to the fullest extent of the law. Prodat reserves the right to revise its Terms and Conditions from time to time. The Customer is therefore advised to check the Terms and Conditions (currently http://www.promap.co.uk/promap/tandc.jsp) regularly as the Customer will be bound by the terms in place on the date the Product is purchased.
- The Customer shall pay the price for the Product without any set off, deduction or counterclaim. Prodat shall not be obliged to invoice any party other than the Customer for the provision of a Product, but where Prodat does so invoice any third party at the request of the Customer, and such invoice is not accepted or remains unpaid, Prodat shall have the option at any time to cancel such invoice and invoice the Customer direct for such Product. Where the Customer's order comprises a number of Products or severable elements within any one or more Products, any failure by Prodat to provide a Product or elements of a Product shall not prejudice Prodat's ability to require payment in respect of the Products or elements of the Product delivered to the Customer as the circumstance shall indicate. In addition, Prodat may charge interest on overdue amounts at 3% over the National Westminster Bank base rate from time to time from the due date until payment in full is made. VAT at the prevailing rate shall be payable in addition to the price for the Product (as set out in Prodat's price list as referred to above).
- Any time or indulgence granted by Prodat or delay in exercising any of its rights under the Agreement shall not prejudice or affect Prodat's rights or operate as a waiver of the same.
- Prodat reserves the right to refuse to supply the Products or any of them to a Customer at any time prior to acceptance of an order, including without limitation, altering the specification of or price charged for any Product, or amending these Terms. Whilst Prodat shall endeavour to give the Customer notice of any such alterations, the Customer acknowledges that such amendments may be required of Prodat by its data suppliers and as such, Prodat is entitled to require implementation forthwith without notice, and the Customers continued use of the Product or placing any further order for Products shall be deemed to constitute acceptance of any such amendment.
- Prodat may, at any time and at its sole discretion suspend or terminate the Customer's access to the Products, or any of them, and shall not be obliged to provide any notice of such suspension or termination. In the event that such action is taken, Prodat shall not incur any liability to the Customer whatsoever.
- Prodat may assign its rights and obligations under these Terms without prior notice or any limitation. The Customer shall not be entitled to assign its rights or obligations pursuant to the Agreement.
- Prodat may suspend or terminate the provision of the Product if the Customer is bankrupt or insolvent or makes any voluntary arrangements with its creditors or becomes subject to an administration order or has an administrative receiver appointed over any of its assets or if Prodat has reason to believe that any of foregoing conditions may come into existence or any amount owing to Prodat is overdue or the Customer has exceeded any credit limit or in the event the Customer has breached any of the obligations set out in these Terms and in the event of a breach capable of remedy, has failed to so remedy the breach within 7 days of receiving written notice from Prodat specifying the breach and remedial action to be taken.
- The Agreement shall at all times be governed construed and enforced in accordance with English Law which shall be the proper law of the Agreement, and both parties thereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts. If any dispute arises out of or in connection with these Terms ('Dispute') the parties undertake that prior to commencement of court proceedings they will see to have the Dispute resolved amicably by use of an alternative dispute resolution procedure acceptable to both parties with the assistance of the Centre for Dispute Resolution, such procedure to be commenced by the service of written notice by one party to the other. If the Dispute has not been resolved to the mutual satisfaction of the parties within 60 days (or such other period as they shall agree) of initiation of the procedure or if either party refuses to participate, then either party may refer the Dispute to the courts.
- Prodat's privacy policy as displayed and updated from time to time on its website governs the use that will be made of information that you provide.
- The Customer agrees not to reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Product or use or attempt to use the Product for any purpose other than the purpose for which it is supplied under these Terms and Conditions. The Customer further undertakes not to attempt in any way to circumvent or subvert the charging mechanisms used in connection with the Product.
- The Customer shall comply with all requirements of the relevant Data Protection law.
- The Customer hereby agrees to indemnify Prodat from and against all costs, claims, expenses and damages, whether direct or indirect, caused by the Customer of any of its obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation any unauthorised use of the Product.
- Prodat or any Data Originator shall be entitled at any time following the supply of any Product to audit the Customer's compliance with the provisions of these Terms, including without limitation compliance with the security and confidentiality obligations, the use of intellectual property rights and compliance with the ordering and payment procedures and the Customer shall give Prodat or the Data Originator all reasonable assistance in connection with such audit, including without limitation granting access to relevant personnel, books and records. In the event that such audit shall uncover any non-compliance with these Terms, Prodat reserves the rights to refuse to supply any further Product to the Customer and notwithstanding this, the Customer shall indemnify Prodat against any losses that it may have suffered or incurred as a result of the Customer's breach of its obligations.
- Unless otherwise stated in these Terms all notices from the Customer to Prodat shall be in writing and sent to the Prodat registered office.

- A person who is not a party to any contract made pursuant to these terms and conditions shall have no right under the Contract (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any terms of such contract and Prodat shall not be liable to any such third party in respect of the Products, save that any Data Originator may enforce any of these terms and conditions against the Customer in accordance with the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

Landmark does not promise that the supply of the Services will be uninterrupted or error free or provide any particular facilities or functions, or that the Content will always be complete, accurate, precise, free from defects of any other kind, computer viruses, software locks or other similar code although Landmark will use reasonable efforts to correct any inaccuracies within a reasonable period of them becoming known to us;

- All liability for any insurance products purchased by You rests solely with the insurer. Landmark does not endorse any particular product or insurer and no information contained within the Services should be deemed to imply otherwise. You acknowledge that if You Order any such insurance Landmark will deem such as Your consent to forward a copy of the Report to the insurers. Where such policy is purchased, all liability remains with the insurers and You are entirely responsible for ensuring that the insurance policy offered is suitable for Your needs and should seek independent advice.
