5Companies House and third-party information

Deal Origination uses information from Companies House and other public sources. Such information may be:

  • Incomplete
  • Delayed
  • Outdated
  • Incorrectly filed
  • Unavailable in machine-readable form

Companies House public-register information is not necessarily independently verified by Companies House. Deal Origination does not warrant that third-party or public-source information is complete or error-free. Users are responsible for checking material information against original and current sources.

Deal Origination may:

  • Classify financial data
  • Estimate revenue where reported turnover is unavailable
  • Calculate financial indicators
  • Produce succession-fit or other analytical indicators
  • Identify potential acquisition characteristics

Outputs may depend on available filings, machine-readable source quality, assumptions, incomplete information and estimates. All such outputs are indicative analytical tools, not statements of fact unless directly supported by the underlying source.

Deal Origination does not provide:

  • Investment advice
  • Financial advice
  • Legal advice

Users are responsible for ensuring any outreach, direct marketing, correspondence or use of contact information complies with applicable law and professional standards. Deal Origination does not authorise unlawful marketing or misuse of personal information.

9Intellectual property

Deal Origination's software, interface, branding, methodology, reports and layout, and proprietary calculations and presentation remain owned by or licensed to Deal Origination. Public and third-party source data remains subject to the rights applicable to its original source. Nothing in these Terms claims ownership over Companies House public-register data itself.

10Availability and changes

The service is provided on an evolving basis. Functionality may be changed, improved, suspended or withdrawn, and uninterrupted availability is not guaranteed.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
