Terms of Use

The terms on which you may use North East Alive.com.

Last updated: August 2026

North East Alive.com(“we”, “us”, “our”) is a free, independent community website for North East Alive and the surrounding area. By using this website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site.

1. Using this site

You may use North East Alive.comfor your own personal, non-commercial purposes — finding local businesses, events, and information. You agree not to misuse the site, including by attempting to gain unauthorised access, disrupting its operation, scraping its content at scale, or using it for any unlawful purpose.

2. Directory listings and local information

Our directory, event listings, and guides are provided to help the local community. We compile this information from public sources and the businesses themselves, and we take care to keep it accurate. However, details such as opening hours, prices, addresses, contact details, and availability can change, and we cannot guarantee that every entry is complete or up to date.

Always confirm important details directly with the business or venue before relying on them — for example before travelling, booking, or making a purchase. A listing on this site is not an endorsement, and we are not responsible for the goods or services any listed business provides.

3. Bookings and external links

Some listings and events include links to third-party websites, such as a business's own site or a booking service. When you follow such a link and book, buy, or transact, you do so directly with that third party under their own terms and privacy policy. We are not a party to that transaction and are not responsible for it. We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their content or availability.

4. Intellectual property

The design, text, and original images on North East Alive.com are our property or used with permission, and are protected by copyright. You may share links to our pages and quote short extracts with attribution, but you may not reproduce substantial portions of the site without our permission. Business names, logos, and trade marks referenced on the site remain the property of their respective owners.

5. User-submitted information

If you contact us to suggest a listing, submit an event, or send us information, you confirm that you are entitled to share it and that it is accurate to the best of your knowledge. We may publish, edit, or decline to publish any submission at our discretion.

6. No warranties

This site is provided “as is”. While we work hard to keep it useful, accurate, and available, we do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the information on it is complete or current.

7. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of — or inability to use — this site, or from your reliance on any information on it. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability where it would be unlawful to do so.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Your continued use of the site after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.

9. Contact

If you have any questions about these terms, please contact us at claude@javabeat.co.uk.
