0. INTRODUCTION

0.1 Contractual Relationship. These Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as “Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between the entity identified as Prizology Ltd, a private company limited by shares, duly incorporated and existing under the laws of England and Wales and registered under Company Number 16738557, having its principal office in the United Kingdom (hereinafter the “Company”), and any individual or entity accessing, registering for, or otherwise utilising any portion of the Service, as defined below (hereinafter the “User”).

0.2 Scope of Application. These Terms govern and regulate the User’s access to and utilisation of the Company’s online platform, including, without limitation, its website, curated database, and all subscription-based or ancillary digital functionalities operated under the “Prizology” brand (collectively referred to as the “Service”).

0.3 Acknowledgement and Acceptance. By creating an account, purchasing a subscription, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, the User acknowledges that they have read, comprehended, and irrevocably accepted these Terms in their entirety. Any use of the Service shall constitute conclusive evidence of such acceptance. In the event the User does not agree to be bound by these Terms, they must refrain from any access to or use of the Service.

0.4 Ancillary Policies. The provision and use of the Service are further governed by the Company’s Privacy Policy, which shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference and form an integral component of this Agreement.

1. THE SERVICE

1.1 Nature and Function of the Service. The Service constitutes a curated, proprietary, digital directory facilitating the identification and discovery of awards, competitions, grants, bursaries, and other analogous opportunities (collectively, the “Listings”). The Company does not itself create, administer, fund, or adjudicate such Listings and acts solely as an intermediary provider of information and links to third-party organisers.

1.2 Disclaimer of Reliance. All data, materials, and information made accessible through the Service (collectively, the “Content”) are furnished strictly for general informational purposes. The Content shall not, under any circumstances, be construed as medical, legal, financial, professional, or other advisory material, nor shall any reliance thereon give rise to a duty of care.

1.3 Definitions. For the purposes of these Terms, the “Database” shall denote the structure, selection, coordination, schema, and compilation of the Content, together with its organisational metadata, taxonomy, and presentation.

2. ELIGIBILITY AND ACCOUNTS

2.1 Age and Capacity. The Service is intended exclusively for individuals possessing legal capacity and aged sixteen (16) years or older. Individuals under the age of eighteen (18) years must obtain verifiable consent from a parent or legal guardian prior to engaging with the Service.

2.2 User Obligations. The User undertakes to furnish accurate, current, and complete registration information and shall be solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of all authentication credentials. All activity occurring under the User’s account shall be deemed the responsibility of the User, whether authorised or unauthorised.

2.3 Account Administration. All modifications to account information, subscription management, billing inquiries, or requests for cancellation must be directed to the Company either through its designated Help Centre or by written communication to support@prizology.org. The User is expressly prohibited from selling, transferring, sublicensing, or otherwise assigning access rights to any third party.

3. SUBSCRIPTION, BILLING, AND CANCELLATION

3.1 Access Framework. Access to a limited subset of sample Listings may be provided without charge. Unrestricted access to the Database and associated functionality shall be contingent upon the User’s enrolment in and payment for an applicable subscription plan (the “Subscription”). Annual Subscription plans are billed as a single upfront charge that covers twelve (12) consecutive months of access; any monthly figure presented in marketing collateral is provided solely for comparative illustration and does not constitute a monthly instalment. Annual Subscriptions shall, absent cancellation, renew automatically on a yearly basis in accordance with Clause 3.4.

3.2 Billing Authorisation. Subscription fees, together with any applicable taxes or charges, shall be billed on a recurring basis to the payment method designated by the User. The Company reserves the right to suspend or restrict the User’s access in the event of payment failure, following reasonable electronic notification.

3.3 Free Trial. Certain Premium Subscriptions may include a seven (7) day free trial made available to new customers. The trial period shall commence immediately upon registration and shall expire automatically at the conclusion of the stated period, whereupon the User’s nominated payment method shall be charged the then-current Subscription fee unless the User cancels prior to expiry. Cancellation during the trial period shall prevent all charges associated with the relevant Subscription. Should the User elect to upgrade, convert, or otherwise commence a paid plan manually before the trial concludes, any remaining trial entitlement shall be irrevocably waived. By activating the trial, the User expressly acknowledges and agrees to post-trial automatic billing in accordance with the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.

3.4 Automatic Renewal. Subscriptions shall renew automatically for successive billing cycles unless and until terminated by the User pursuant to Clause 2.3. Termination shall become effective upon expiration of the current billing cycle.

3.5 Amendment of Pricing. The Company reserves the unilateral right to revise pricing structures, fee schedules, or Subscription plans, upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior notice. Any modification shall take effect in the next billing period unless cancellation occurs prior to renewal.

3.6 Finality of Payments. Except to the extent required by mandatory consumer protection law, all payments made in respect of Subscriptions shall be final, non-refundable, and non-creditable, including payments relating to partial periods, downgrades, or non-use.

3.7 Promotional Programmes. From time to time, the Company may issue promotional codes, discounts, or affiliate-linked offers (collectively, “Promotions”), which may necessitate the limited disclosure of subscriber data to relevant partners solely for verification or attribution. Use of any Promotion shall constitute acceptance of the terms specific thereto. Unless expressly stated otherwise within the Promotion, any discount shall apply only for the promotional period specified and shall not automatically extend to renewal cycles.

3.8 Value Added Tax and Invoicing. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, all published prices are inclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT) applicable in the United Kingdom. Electronic invoices shall be transmitted to the User’s registered email address.

Consumer Notice (United Kingdom): By initiating a Subscription, the User expressly requests immediate access to digital content and acknowledges that, pursuant to the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, the statutory right of withdrawal shall cease upon commencement of digital supply.

4. CONTENT AND THIRD-PARTY MATERIAL

4.1 Accuracy and Verification. While the Company exercises reasonable diligence in maintaining the accuracy of the Listings, all substantive information—including, without limitation, deadlines, eligibility requirements, and prize descriptions—remains under the exclusive control of third-party organisers and may be altered or withdrawn without prior notification. The User bears sole responsibility for verifying all relevant details through the organiser’s official channels prior to reliance or application.

4.2 Third-Party Websites. References or hyperlinks to external websites or materials shall not be construed as implying sponsorship, endorsement, or assumption of liability by the Company. The Company disclaims all responsibility for third-party content, representations, actions, or omissions.

4.3 Inclusion of Listings. Inclusion of any Listing within the Service is subject solely to the Company’s editorial and curatorial discretion. No external entity shall possess any right or entitlement to compel inclusion or preferential positioning within the Database.

5. ACCEPTABLE USE AND DATA RESTRICTIONS

Subject to an active and valid Subscription, the Company grants the User a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and utilise the Service solely for personal, non-commercial purposes, in strict conformity with these Terms.

The User shall not, except with the Company’s prior written authorisation:

1. copy, reproduce, mirror, frame, cache, download, export, scrape, harvest, or mine any portion of the Content or Database, whether manually or through automated processes (including, without limitation, bots, crawlers, or spiders);
2. sublicense, lease, distribute, sell, or otherwise disseminate the Content or Database, including by means of screenshots, CSV exports, or derivative compilations;
3. conduct or enable text and data mining, machine learning, or benchmarking activities, save to the limited extent such activities cannot lawfully be prohibited;
4. systematically retrieve or reconstruct substantial portions of the Database or its schema;
5. circumvent authentication mechanisms, rate limits, paywalls, or other access controls; or
6. utilise the Service for purposes of competition or to operate a product or service substantially similar to or substitutable for the Service.

The User may share direct URLs to individual Listings or organiser pages for private reference only. All other rights, including database extraction and republication, are expressly reserved.

6. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND DATABASE RIGHTS

All intellectual property rights, including but not limited to copyright, database rights (including the sui generis right conferred by Directive 96/9/EC), design rights, and trademarks subsisting in the Service, its structure, schema, compilation, and software, shall vest in or be licensed to the Company.

The User shall not remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices, watermarks, or technological protection measures incorporated within the Service.

7. SERVICE MODIFICATIONS AND AVAILABILITY

The Company reserves the right, at its sole discretion and without incurring liability, to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect, component, or functionality of the Service. No service-level commitment, uptime warranty, or availability guarantee is hereby conferred or implied.

8. WARRANTIES AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

8.1 Exclusion of Warranties. The Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company disclaims all express, implied, or statutory warranties, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement.

8.2 Limitation of Liability. The Company shall not, under any circumstances, be liable for indirect, consequential, incidental, or special loss, including, without limitation, loss of profits, goodwill, or data. The Company’s aggregate liability in respect of any claim arising under these Terms shall not exceed the total amount of Subscription fees actually paid by the User in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to such claim. For Users who access the Service free of charge, the Company’s total liability shall be nil (£0).

8.3 Third-Party Information. The Company shall bear no liability whatsoever for inaccuracies, errors, or omissions contained within third-party Listings or external content.

8.4 Non-Excludable Liabilities. Nothing contained herein shall operate to exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability which cannot be lawfully excluded or limited.

9. TERMINATION, ENFORCEMENT, AND INDEMNITY

9.1 Termination by the Company. The Company may, with immediate effect and without prior notice, suspend or terminate the User’s access to the Service in the event of breach, fraud, non-payment, or legal compulsion. Where feasible, the Company shall provide written notice prior to permanent termination.

9.2 Consequences of Termination. Upon termination, all licences and permissions granted under these Terms shall immediately cease. All fees previously paid shall remain non-refundable.

9.3 Indemnity. The User hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, employees, and affiliates from and against all claims, demands, actions, losses, damages, costs, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with the User’s breach of these Terms or misuse of the Service.

9.4 Technical Enforcement. The Company may implement technical, analytical, and organisational measures (including, without limitation, IP address blocking, device fingerprinting, or rate limiting) to monitor and prevent unauthorised or unlawful access. The Company reserves the right to seek injunctive relief and equitable remedies in respect of any actual or threatened infringement.

10. DATA RETENTION

The Company may retain limited account and transactional data for compliance, fiscal, or security purposes for a period not exceeding six (6) years following the closure of a User account, in accordance with applicable statutory obligations and the Company’s Privacy Policy.

11. FORCE MAJEURE

Neither Party shall be deemed in breach or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under these Terms where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, strikes, war, hostilities, terrorism, civil disturbance, or governmental restrictions.

12. AMENDMENTS

The Company reserves the right to revise or amend these Terms at any time. Material modifications shall become effective no earlier than thirty (30) days following electronic or written notice to Users. Continued access to or use of the Service after the effective date of such amendments shall constitute conclusive acceptance thereof.

13. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

These Terms, and any dispute, claim, or non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection therewith, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales shall possess exclusive jurisdiction, save where mandatory consumer protection law provides otherwise.
