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.

Docular is closing down. Until the final shut down (which we expect to be on or around 31 July 2025), if you have credits you can still spend them, and if you have unused instances you can still use them. However, it is no longer possible to buy additional credits or to buy new licences. If you have any questions about this, please do write to us.
