Terms of Service

The practice subscription — architects only

Practice subscription terms version: practice-2026-09-17

The practice subscription is available only to architects and architectural practices for their own client work, as described on our for-architects page. The following terms apply only when you take out that subscription.

General users, including homeowners, purchase notice bundles on a one-off, pay-as-you-go basis. They do not take out a subscription and are not subject to the three-month minimum term, recurring fees or subscription cancellation terms below. Their purchases remain governed by the separate one-off digital-content terms above.

For a new subscription, the practice plan is £70 + VAT (£84 including VAT) per month. It has an initial minimum term of three calendar months from the date of your first payment, so the minimum total is £210 + VAT (£252 including VAT), payable as three monthly charges. It then continues on a rolling monthly basis. You may cancel at any time from the dashboard, but if you cancel during the minimum term, cancellation takes effect when those three calendar months end. If you cancel after the minimum term has ended, it takes effect at the end of your current monthly billing period. The monthly fee remains payable for the full minimum term regardless of how much or how little you use the service during it.

This minimum term applies to new subscriptions entered into under these terms. Legacy subscriptions are not retrospectively subject to a new minimum commitment.

Fair use of unlimited notices

“Unlimited notices” means unlimited use consistent with the normal volume of a single practice's own client work. It is not a licence to generate notices in bulk for resale, for unrelated third parties, or at a volume materially outside normal practice use. We may contact you if usage appears inconsistent with this, and may agree a revised arrangement or, in cases of clear misuse, suspend or terminate the subscription.

Notices generated under your subscription

Each notice generated under the practice subscription is digital content supplied immediately on generation. Where an applicable digital-content cancellation right is waived, this requires your express consent and acknowledgement as described above; generating a notice does not by itself waive any cancellation rights relating to the ongoing subscription service.

Acceptance of these subscription terms, or asking the ongoing subscription service to begin, is not the separate express consent and acknowledgement to waive a cancellation right for a notice supplied as digital content. Any notice-specific waiver must be made at the relevant checkout and does not remove statutory rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Generated notices are not individually refundable simply because you no longer need them or cancel the subscription. This does not affect any statutory remedy for defective digital content or any other rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Cancelling the subscription does not withdraw, invalidate, or affect any notice already generated. Notices you have already produced remain yours to use; cancellation only ends your ability to generate further notices under the subscription once it takes effect. Keep downloaded copies for your records; our normal document-retention rules still apply.

The subscription supplies notice documents, not surveying services. Any surveyor appointment and professional fees are separate. See our practice subscription cancellation and refund terms.
