Fees and arrangements are agreed directly with the celebrant.

Accuracy

We make every effort to ensure that listings are accurate and bona fide, however, we are not responsible for any errors or misrepresentation unless caused by negligence on our part.

Additional Terms of Service - for Organisations and Celebrants submitting a Listing

These conditions apply to each Organisation and Celebrants submitting a listing and are in addition to the terms of service shown above.

Acceptability

In submitting a listing or news article, you certify that you have been appointed to represent the Organisation to which the listing or news article applies.

In submitting a listing or news article, the Organisation certifies that the listing or news article is compliant with the Trade Descriptions Act 1968, the Financial Services Act 1986 (where appropriate) and the British Code of Advertising Practice.

In submitting a listing or news article, you confirm that you wrote it or have permission to use everything in it, including text, poems, song lyrics and photos. Name the author of anything you quote.

News articles are checked automatically when they are added or changed, and an article may be held back from your listing until we have reviewed it.

We reserve the right to refuse, modify or remove a listing or news article without explanation.

On a free listing, the short description must not include phone numbers, email addresses or website addresses. Enter these in the contact details of your listing instead. Contact details are only shown on premium listings. We may remove contact details from a short description without notice.

Accuracy

The accuracy of listings on this site are very important to us. We make every effort to ensure that the listings on the site are accurate, and undertake to verify each listing once per calendar year. We reserve the right to remove a listing that has not been verified.

You also certify that any images or text are permitted by their owner to be stored on this site and indemnify us against any complaint brought by a copyright owner.

Premium Listings

We reserve the right to restrict the availability of new site functionality to Organisations who have subscribed to a Premium Listing. We also reserve the right to introduce different levels of Premium Listing to which the Organisation can upgrade upon payment of the appropriate fee.

Testimonials

Premium Listings can collect testimonials using a link or QR code we provide. You must only invite people you led a funeral for, and you must not write testimonials yourself or have them written for you. You may choose which testimonials to show, but you must not change what people wrote. We may remove testimonials, or the ability to collect them, without notice.

Payment

Unless otherwise stated, all Premium Listings are for a 12 month period and must be pre-paid.

Refunds

We are unable to refund the premium listing fee in the event that you wish to remove your premium listing from the site.
