1. Who these terms are between
These terms are between GENIUSQUICK LTD, company number 14471161, at 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ ("we", "us"), and the person or business buying a list ("you"). We are registered with the Information Commissioner's Office, registration ZC275748.
By buying a list you accept these terms. If you are buying for an organisation, you confirm you can accept them on its behalf.
2. What you are buying
A one-off file of company records for the list you chose (a trade, a town, a county or a family of trades) and the months you chose: any month we hold, from March 2026 to the current month so far, in any mix, or everything we hold for that list. The current month is still being counted, so its number grows. The file holds every company registered in that list and those months, except anyone removed at their own request (clause 7) and companies registered at a formation agent's address whose real location we could not establish. A county's list holds the companies of every town we place in that county: the county most of that town's companies write in their registered address. After you pay, we look for each company's website, business email and phone number, and the file carries what we find.
You are buying a copy of a file, not exclusivity. The same data may be sold to others. A one-off order is one file, and nothing more is charged unless you choose Check my emails.
Every month. If you choose Every month, you pay the price shown when you sign up, every month from the day you signed up (on that date, or on the last day of a shorter month), until you cancel. That price is one month's price for the newest month that had closed when you signed up (3p for each company registered in it, never under £15), and it does not change while the subscription runs. Your first payment delivers that month's file, as for a one-off order. Each later payment delivers the next month's file, in order, once that month has closed and had its two weeks of checking (sign up on 20 October: September at once, October on 20 November, November on 20 December). A later month's file holds every company registered in it. You can cancel at any time from the link in every delivery email, or by writing to us. Cancelling stops the next payment; a month already paid for is still delivered. Each file comes under these terms, including refunds in clause 10. Check my emails is not available with Every month.
The price is 3p for each company in your chosen months together, with a minimum of £15 an order. If you take every month we hold, 10% off that price (still never under £15). Prices include no VAT: GENIUSQUICK LTD is not VAT registered. The page shows how many companies the months you chose hold. Within a minute of payment we email you that number and the time your file will arrive, which is never more than 48 hours after payment. If our search for contact details has not finished by then, the file comes at that time with what we have found, and we send it again, free, if the search then finds anything more. The price you see when you pay is the price you pay; nothing more is charged, except for Check my emails, below.
Older companies. You can instead buy the companies of a list (a trade, a town, a family of trades, one trade in one town, or one trade in a county) registered before March 2026, by age: under 2 years, 2 to 5, 5 to 10, or 10 years or more, counted in whole years from incorporation to the date of the Companies House register file we used, which the page and the file name. The file holds every live private limited company of that list and those ages on that register (not proposed for strike-off, not filing dormant accounts), except anyone removed at their own request (clause 7) and companies registered at a formation agent's address. The price is 3p for each company, with a minimum of £15 an order, and all four ages together are 10% off. One order holds at most 20,000 companies. We look for contact details after payment, and the file arrives as for any other order, never more than 48 hours after payment. A company may have closed since the register date.
Check my emails. On a one-off order you can tick Check my emails. We then check every email in your file with our checker, and charge 10p for each one the company's mail server confirms, on top of the list's price. When you pay, your card is held, not charged, for the list's price plus 10p for up to 1 in 5 of the list's companies. When your file goes, never more than 48 hours after payment, we take the list's price and 10p for each confirmed email, never more than the hold, and the rest of the hold is released (your bank may take a few days to show it). Emails confirmed after your file goes, in a free update, are not charged. Check my emails is not available with Every month.
3. What is in it, and what is not
Every record carries the company's name, number, incorporation date, what it does, its address, and the names of its directors. Where we find them, it also carries the company's website, a business email address and a phone number. Most companies this new have no website yet, so many records carry no contact details; the price is for the company records, and contact details come where we find them. An email is given only for a company whose website we proved is its own: the address it publishes there, or one built on its own web address as described below, and never one our checker found to be dead. If you chose Check my emails, the file says which emails the company's mail server confirmed as a live mailbox (a checked email), and why the others could not be confirmed; otherwise the emails are not checked for your order, and we do not promise that they work. Where the company's mail server accepts every address, so no mailbox can be tested, the file says so and may give a second address to try. A phone number comes from the company's own website or its Google Maps listing.
Built addresses are on the company's own domain, as a general address such as info@ or hello@, or from a director's name on the public Companies House register in the usual business patterns (for Jane Smith: jane@, jane.smith@, jsmith@, j.smith@, janes@ or smith@). A checked email may have been built the same way and then confirmed by the company's mail server. We never guess at anyone's home or personal address.
We tell you the number of companies before you pay. If the file holds materially fewer, tell us and we will refund the difference or the whole order, whichever you prefer.
We do not include directors' service addresses unless you ask for them specifically, and if you do, that request is recorded.
4. Where the data comes from
The Companies House public register, published under the Open Government Licence v3.0, company websites, and business listings on Google Maps, which we search through Targetron. Checked emails were confirmed by the company's mail server and tied to its own website; built addresses are made as described in clause 3. Nothing here is bought from a broker or scraped from a social network.
5. What you may use it for
Contacting the businesses listed, about your own business. That is the whole permitted purpose.
6. What you may not do
You may not:
- Resell, share, publish or licence the data, in whole or in part, or make it available to anyone outside your own organisation. This includes uploading it to a shared or third-party database that others can query.
- Use it to market to consumers. These are businesses and the people named are named in a business capacity.
- Send unsolicited marketing to individuals in a way that breaks PECR. B2B email to a limited company is generally permitted; email to a sole trader or an individual generally needs consent. Knowing which you are contacting is your responsibility.
- Contact anyone who has told you to stop.
- Combine it with other data to build a profile of any individual named in it.
7. Removal requests, and what you have to do
Anyone named in this data can tell us to remove them, and we honour it. When that happens for a record you were sold, we will tell you, and you must delete that record from your own systems within 30 days and confirm you have done so.
This is the part most likely to be inconvenient and it is not negotiable. It is the condition on which we are permitted to hold and sell the data at all, and it is what we have told the people named that we will do.
We keep a record of every list sold and to whom, so that we can make those requests. That record is why we ask for a real contact name and address at the point of sale.
8. Your own obligations under data protection law
Once the file is in your hands you are a data controller for it in your own right. That means, among other things, that you have to tell people where you got their details if they ask, honour their own rights, and have a lawful basis for whatever you do next. We can tell you what our basis was; we cannot supply yours.
9. Accuracy, and what we do not promise
The data is taken from the public register and from public websites on the date stated in the file. New companies change fast: they move, rename, appoint and remove directors, and some are dissolved within months.
We do not promise that every record is current, that every contact address still works, or that any recipient will reply. We do promise that every checked email in the file was confirmed by the company's mail server, and tied to the company's own website, at the time of extraction. Any other email is not confirmed, and we do not promise that it works. An address we could not confirm is never marked as checked.
If a material share of the file turns out to be wrong, tell us within 30 days and we will refund it.
Bounce guarantee. If a checked email in your file (Check my emails) bounces within 30 days of delivery, reply to your delivery email with the address. We will replace it with another checked contact from the same list and months (or ages) if we have a spare, and if we have none we will refund that company's price and the 10p for checking it. A bounce is a message back from the receiving mail server saying the address does not exist or cannot receive mail. The guarantee covers checked emails, not other addresses, and we handle each request by hand.
10. Refunds
Because the product is a data file, it cannot be returned once delivered. We will refund in full if the file does not arrive, if it contains materially fewer records than stated, if it is materially inaccurate as described above, or if you tell us within 14 days that it was not what you expected and you have not used it.
11. Liability
Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited.
Beyond that, our total liability for any order is limited to what you paid for it. We are not liable for lost profits, lost business, or any consequential loss arising from your use of the data.
We are not responsible for how you use the file. If you use it in a way these terms prohibit and that causes a complaint, an ICO enforcement action or a claim, that is yours to answer, and you will indemnify us for what it costs us.
12. If you break these terms
We may stop selling to you and require you to delete every file you hold from us. Serious or repeated breach of clause 6 or clause 7 is the sort of thing we would report to the ICO if the people named were harmed by it.
13. Law
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction.
