Directory website terms and conditions
Each of these documents has been created for use on a directory website: that is, a website giving businesses or other organisations the opportunity to publish information about themselves in some pre-defined listing format. The terms and conditions come in three favours: the first is suitable for websites with only free directory listings; the second is suitable for websites with only paid directory listings; and the third is suitable for websites with both free and paid directory listings.
