Article 1. Purpose
The purpose of these terms of use is to set forth terms for the provision of the Service by the Provider and the receipt and management of the Dataset by the Receiver.
Article 2. Definitions
1. Dataset: A collection of data including, for example, the name, party, ward, council and email address of UK councillors, as well as other associated data fields, such as council organisational model, electoral arrangements and regular election dates, formatted, for example, as CSV. The fields and associated data in a dataset and its format are as specified in the product description unless otherwise specified by the Provider and the Receiver.

2. The Provider shall carry out updates on the Dataset as such details become available and provide an updated Dataset to the Receiver according to the update frequency specified in the product description.
3. A large update to the Dataset occurs following May local elections, which requires a substantial amount of time. The Provider shall endeavour to provide an updated Dataset as soon as possible following May local elections, and shall provide said Dataset at the latest by June 1st.

Article 5. Fee
The Receiver shall make payment of the one-off fee, annual subscription fee, or a series of 12 monthly fees making up an annual subscription fee. Upon receipt of the fee (or first monthly fee), the Provider shall issue the latest Dataset. In the case of an annual subscription model, the next fee shall be due on the anniversary of the initial payment date. In such a case, deliveries of updates to the Dataset shall be handled as per the product description.
Article 6. Cancellation
The Receiver may cancel the annual subscription at any time by informing the Provider. Following any such cancellation, the product shall revert to a single use type without updates, and the end of the effective term shall be the date two years following the date of said cancellation. During this period the Receiver may continue to use the Dataset held, and no refund of fees shall be made.
Article 7. Liability
The Provider shall not be liable for any loss, damage or other negative impact arising as a result of the provision of the Service, including as a result of defects of any kind in the Dataset or delays in its provision. In the event that the Provider is unable to provide the Service, the maximum liability to the Receiver shall be the amount of the annual fee paid for the Service.
Article 8. Disputes
Any disputes which may arise in relation to the Service shall be settled through negotiation between the Provider and the Receiver.
Article 9. Jurisdiction
These terms of use shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, and shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
