- TERMS & CONDITIONS
How you can use this site, and what we’re responsible for.
The terms of use for obsessed.co.uk. Written in plain English. In line with UK contract and consumer law.
- CONTENTS
1. About these terms
These are the terms of use for obsessed.co.uk – our website. They set out what you can and can’t do on the site, what you can expect from us, and what we expect from you.
By using this site – browsing, signing up to anything, sending us a message – you accept these terms. If you don’t accept them, please don’t use the site.
These terms sit alongside two other pages: our Privacy Policy (how we handle your data) and our Cookie Policy (what cookies we use and why).
These terms cover use of the website only. Any actual service we provide – accounting, advisory, acquisitions – is governed by a separate engagement letter we sign with you before we start.
2. Who we are
This site is run by Obsessed Ltd, a private limited company registered in England and Wales.
Registered office: 71-75 Shelton Street, London, WC2H 9JQS
Company number: 17143772
Contact: legal@obsessed.co.uk
Obsessed Ltd is part of The Obsessed Group. If you take up any service from us – accounting, advisory, or acquisitions – you’ll receive an engagement letter that tells you which group company you’re contracting with and on what terms.
3. Using the website
You’re welcome to read anything on this site, share links to it, and use the forms to get in touch. We just ask that you don’t:
- Scrape, harvest, or otherwise pull data off the site by automated means
- Try to break, disrupt, or gain unauthorised access to any part of the site or its systems
- Impersonate us, anyone connected with us, or anyone else
- Use the site to send spam, malicious code, or anything intended to harm us, our users, or our infrastructure
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of any part of the site
- Use the site for any unlawful purpose, or to support any unlawful activity
If you do any of those, we can suspend or block your access without notice and may take legal action.
4. Our content
Everything on this site – the text, design, illustrations, photography, code, brand name, and look and feel – is owned by The Obsessed Group Ltd or its licensors, and used here by Obsessed Ltd under licence.
You’re welcome to:
- Read it
- Share links to pages on the site
- Quote short extracts in things you write, as long as you credit us and link back
You’re not welcome to:
- Copy or republish substantial parts of the site for any purpose
- Use any of our content commercially without our written permission
- Use our brand name, logo, or visual identity in a way that suggests we endorse or are connected with you or your business when we aren’t
- Strip our credit, remove attribution, or pass our work off as your own
If you’d like to use any of our content beyond what’s set out above, email legal@obsessed.co.uk and we’ll usually say yes.
5. No professional advice
Everything on this site is general information and commentary about business, accounting, advisory, and acquisitions. It’s not professional advice – and you shouldn’t treat it as such.
In particular, nothing on this site is:
- Accounting, tax, or audit advice
- Legal advice
- Financial product, investment, or wealth management advice within the meaning of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000
- Advice on which you should make any decision about your business, finances, tax position, or anything else
If you’d like actual advice – accounting, advisory, acquisitions, or anything else – we’ll need to enter into an engagement letter with you before we can give it. The engagement letter sets out what we’re doing, what you’re paying, what we’re not doing, and how we’re regulated for that work.
Nothing on this site creates a professional relationship between us. Sending us a form submission, an email, or booking a free advisory session doesn’t make us your accountant, adviser, or anything else – those relationships start when an engagement letter is signed.
If you act on anything you read here without taking proper professional advice, you do so at your own risk.
6. Services and engagement
If you’d like to work with us on any service – accounting, advisory, acquisitions, or anything else – we’ll send you an engagement letter setting out the work, the fee, the terms, and which group company will be contracting with you. Nothing happens, and no fee becomes payable, until you’ve signed it.
The engagement letter is the contract between us and you for that work. It overrides anything in these terms that conflicts with it. These terms continue to govern your use of this website regardless.
Free advisory sessions aren’t a service in this sense. They’re a 45-minute call to explore whether we’re a good fit. Nothing said in a free advisory session creates a professional relationship between us – that starts when an engagement letter is signed.
7. External links
The site sometimes links to other websites – for example, social media profiles, regulatory bodies, news articles, or third-party tools we use. We include those links to help, not because we endorse the sites or anything on them.
We don’t control third-party sites, and we’re not responsible for their content, accuracy, security, privacy practices, or anything else. When you click an external link, you’re leaving our site and the terms of the place you’re going to take over.
8. Our liability to you
We try to keep this site working, accurate, and helpful. But we can’t promise it’s perfect, and there are limits to what we’ll be responsible for if something goes wrong.
We’re not responsible for:
- Any loss or damage that results from you relying on something you read on this site (see No professional advice above)
- Loss or damage caused by third-party content reached through links from our site
- Loss or damage caused by your use of third-party tools we integrate with — for example Calendly bookings, or any external service we direct you to
- Indirect, special, or consequential loss - for example, lost profits, lost business, lost opportunity, or loss of data - arising out of your use of the site
- Site downtime, technical errors, or interruptions
- Death or personal injury caused by our negligence
- Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by us
- Anything else the law doesn’t let us limit or exclude
- If you’re a consumer (as defined in the Consumer Rights Act 2015), your statutory rights apply regardless of anything in these terms. Nothing here limits or removes those rights.
9. Privacy and cookies
How we handle your personal data is set out in our Privacy Policy. What cookies and similar technologies we use on the site, and how to control them, is set out in our Cookie Policy. Both of those pages form part of these terms.
10. Changes
We can change the site whenever we want – add pages, remove pages, update content, redesign things. We’re under no obligation to keep any particular page or feature available.
We can also change these terms. If we do, we’ll update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. For changes that materially affect your rights, we’ll let you know directly – by email if we have a current address for you, or by a prominent notice on the site.
Your continued use of the site after we update the terms means you accept the updated version.
11. Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any dispute about these terms or your use of this site will be dealt with by the courts of England and Wales.
If you’re a consumer based in another part of the UK, you may also have the right to bring a claim in your local courts.
11. Severability and waiver
If any part of these terms is held to be unenforceable, the rest will continue to apply. Our delay in enforcing any term doesn’t mean we’ve waived our right to enforce it.
