Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of PlanWatch (planwatch.co.uk). By using our service, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the service. We've kept these straightforward — no legalese for the sake of it.

PlanWatch is a UK planning application search and monitoring service. We aggregate publicly available planning application data and make it searchable by postcode. Free users can search and save an account/postcode; paid plans can send instant email alerts for monitored postcodes.

The service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do our best to keep data accurate and up-to-date, but we cannot guarantee completeness or real-time accuracy.

Searching is free and requires no account. If you create an account or save a postcode:

• check_circle You must provide a valid email address
• check_circle You are responsible for keeping your email up to date if you use paid alert delivery
• check_circle You can manage paid alert emails using the unsubscribe link or your account settings
• check_circle You can request full deletion of your data at any time

You agree not to:

• close Scrape, crawl, or bulk-download data from the site
• close Use the service to send spam or unsolicited communications
• close Attempt to access systems or data you're not authorised to access
• close Use the service for any unlawful purpose
• close Resell or redistribute our data without permission

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access for anyone who violates these terms.

PlanWatch offers a free postcode search and saved postcode account; free accounts do not include ongoing email alerts. Starter provides one monitored postcode with paid instant alerts; Pro provides five monitored postcodes with paid instant alerts; Business provides the monitored-postcode, instant-alert, API, export, and alert-rule capabilities shown on the pricing page.

We reserve the right to change pricing, features, or plan structures with reasonable notice. If you're on a paid plan and we make changes that materially reduce what you've paid for, you'll be entitled to a refund for the remaining period.

The PlanWatch name, logo, website design, and original content are owned by PlanWatch. Planning application data is sourced from public records and is not our intellectual property.

You may share individual planning application details for personal, non-commercial purposes. Bulk reproduction or redistribution of our content or data requires written permission.

We may update these terms from time to time. If we make significant changes, we'll notify active subscribers by email. Continued use of the service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
