LiveryList has a right to reject any adverts if feels do not comply with the terms and conditions of advertising, is not deemed relevant to the target user of the site or has not been submitted by an authorised person. LiveryList does not have to justify its reasoning for the rejection of any adverts.

20. If an advertiser is stopped from advertising on the website for whatever reason (which LiveryList does not have to justify), they will receive notification of this by email and a refund where applicable for the remainder of their listing. If an advertiser does not comply with LiveryList’s Terms and Conditions of Advertising, LiveryList will withdraw any advertisers advert from the website without warning and no refund will be made.

PAYMENTS,  RENEWALS & UPGRADES

21. You acknowledge that we will commence supplying our services to you as soon as you have made payment for your listing. By submitting and paying for your initial listing you recognise that you have agreed to advertise your services or business and pay the relevant charge for the advertising subscription and are adhered to the renewal and cancellation terms as described below. No adverts will appear live on the site until full payment is received. All users will be notified by email when their listing is published.

22. All listings are submitted on an “automatic renewal, cancel anytime” basis. To provide a continuous service to advertisers and users of the site, LiveryList automatically renews all paid subscriptions upon expiration using the payment method used upon initial payment. You will be notified by PayPal or Stripe (dependent upon your payment method) that a subscription has been set up at the time of original payment. Users will be given notice in advance of when automatic renewals are to be made, and when the advert is renewed. Such renewals are for the same duration as the original subscription term (for example, a 6-month subscription will renew on a 6-monthly basis) and at the same advertising level (i.e if the original subscription was for a featured yard, the renewal would remain at the same advertising tier). By having a subscription, you will only ever pay a maximum of the full standard listing rate at your time of submission, regardless of any price increase for new advertisers. By using the Site, you acknowledge that Your Account will be subject to the above-described automatic renewals. In all cases, if you do not wish Your Account to renew automatically, you can cancel at any time after initial payment- please follow the directions set out under “Cancellations & Refunds.”

23. If a listing owner chooses the upgrade option, they can select a higher or lower tier of advertising. This is treated as a renewal and as such full payment is taken for the new tier at the current rates. Changes to listing permissions as per the tiers and packages are implemented immediately. All users will be notified by email when their updated listing is published. Subject to payment of the upgrade, if applicable, a request may be made in writing for a refund to be issued for the original listing payment on a pro-rata basis with the appropriate deduction per full month passed since initial listing submission and payment. These will not be issued automatically and the request must be made within 7 days of the upgrade payment being received. You will also need to ensure that any PayPal subscription relating to the existing listing payment is cancelled appropriately to avoid duplicate payments. This responsibility lies solely with the advertiser.

24. It is the responsibility of the advertiser to seek the status of any existing automatic renewal subscription before making a manual renewal for any listing. You can contact us for confirmation of any existing or due subscription payments as advised on the renewal reminder email. If a duplicate payment is made alongside an automatic renewal payment, these will not automatically be picked up. The request for a refund of any duplicate payment for the same listing is valid only for 30 days from the most recent payment, and will not be backdated further.

DISCOUNT CODES AND ABRS+ MEMBER BENEFIT

25. All discount codes are designed for new advertisers. If you use an introductory offer code for your first payment and received a reduced charge, any automatic renewals will then revert to the standard advertising charge at the time of original submission and remain as such until such time as the subscription is cancelled. By manually upgrading an existing listing with a discount code, you need to ensure that any existing PayPal payment subscription for your listing is cancelled accordingly to prevent any duplicate renewals. You should also be aware that for the next automatic renewal of the listing, following the use of a discount code, it will revert to the standard charge at the time you most recently made an initial payment for the listing (ie a manual renewal to use a discount code) which may be a higher rate than an existing subscription rate.

26. If a listing owner is or becomes an ABRS+ Approved Riding School or Certified or Approved Livery Yard, they are eligible for either a free Standard or Basic Listing or a discounted Featured Listing as per their membership benefits. The way this benefit is applied depends upon the existing advertising status of the listing. Upon notification of their approved membership, the listing owner will receive an email advising of the process to obtain their listing or discount during their 12-month ABRS membership. No discounts or pro-rata refunds will be given on the basis of any listings added or renewed (automatically or manually) at any time prior to confirmation of their membership acceptance to the ABRS scheme. Any discounts or complimentary renewals will only take effect upon their next expiry date and within their 12-month ABRS+ membership.

CANCELLATIONS & REFUNDS

27. All listings are submitted on an “automatic renewal, cancel anytime” basis. When your advert is first submitted and paid for on LiveryList, you will receive an e-mail payment confirmation from PayPal, and confirmation from PayPal that you have subscribed for payments to LiveryList allowing the listing to auto-renew upon expiry subjects to funds being in the account at the time of renewal.

28. If you wish to cancel your listing: If your subscription was set up prior to 15th December 2024 you need to cancel the PayPal subscription in order to prevent an automatic renewal and the listing will be removed from the site upon its next expiry date. The listing will remain on your account for 12 months should you wish to reactivate it at any time. If you created your subscription on or after 15th December 2024, you can manage your subscription via the Account section of LiveryList, by logging in and selecting ‘Subscriptions’. The simple deletion of a listing from your account and the site will not automatically cancel subscriptions. If you require help cancelling your payment or listing, you can contact admin@liverylist.co.uk.

29. If the PayPal subscription remains, but there are insufficient funds to allow a payment to be taken upon the stated date of renewal, PayPal will try a second payment attempt 5 days after the original renewal date. If PayPal is unable to process the payment on the second attempt, this will suspend and ultimately cancel the subscription. We will then contact listing owners to request a manual renewal should they wish to continue with their listing, and  failure to make that renewal within 5 days will result in the expiry of the listing and the removal of the listing from the site. .

30. Following an automatic renewal, you may contact us to cancel your listing and request a refund at any time within 7 days following the renewal date. You must also cancel your subscription on PayPal to prevent any further renewals once you have cancelled or deleted the listing. A full refund will be processed within 7 days of the payment date for all listings, except in the case of Standard or Premium Listings whereby if the request is made 3-7 days after the renewal, the renewal will already have been processed and the listing shared across our platforms and as such a £5 administration fee shall be retained from any refund given. After the 7-day refund period, you may cancel your subscription or delete the listing at any time, and you will not be charged further if you have cancelled your subscription on PayPal. However, you will not receive a refund, and this applies even if your listing has been deleted by you prior to the renewal payment being taken. No refunds are backdated in the event that a listing is deleted, but the subscription remains. Cancellation of automatic renewals lies solely with the advertiser.

31. Advertisers are responsible for ensuring the singularity of their yard listings and renewal subscriptions. LiveryList endeavours, where possible, to identify and refund automatically duplicated payments for the same listing, or a duplicate listing itself. However, sometimes these may be missed due to different payment details, staggered renewal dates or different account details. If a duplicate payment has been made for the same listing- either manually renewed or automatically- a full refund can be requested. A refund will only be processed for the most recent duplicated renewal and refunds will not be backdated. It is therefore important to ensure you check if an existing subscription is in place that required cancellation when renewing or upgrading your listing manually. If you are the new proprietor of a historical or outdated advert on the site, please contact admin@liverylist.co.uk so we can verify with the listing owner and arrange for the old listing to be removed as necessary.

32. If your renewal payment has failed and the listing expired, or a listing payment been cancelled or refunded, all such expired listings will remain on the user account in draft status for 12 months after expiration date and can be reactivated by renewing the listing and making payment at any time. Any inactive listings are removed from the system after 12 months.

For any queries with regards to payments or subscriptions, you can contact LiveryList directly by email admin@liverylist.co.uk.

DATA POLICY

Our Data Policy and GDPR Consent Notice can be found below:

Our Data Policy Terms

LiveryList is not just an advertising site, it now offers a wealth of information to livery yard owners, and horse owners alike such as our Equine Guides and The LiveryList Blog. We work with other UK equestrian associations and charities to bring you the most up to date information on finding or offering livery, managing a yard, equine welfare running your yard, pasture management and so much more! For us, it’s really important to be able to reach UK equestrians with this up to date and useful information.

We send infrequent communications to our users which may be to promote an offer, notify of a new blog post or article, or other relevant content. If you advertise with us, we may also send you the occasional relevant email in regards to managing your listing. Generally, we send no more than 8-10 emails a year. Very occasionally (maybe 2 or 3 times a year) we may send an email to introduce a relevant partnership product or company, but these are sent directly from LiveryList and are really important to us as these are the companies that help us fund and run the site! We do not sell or share our data with any other parties (because that’s really annoying!) and our mailing lists are retained and password protected securely for our use only.

We retain details as submitted by users on our own password protected database- no third parties or other companies have access to this data. None of these details are published by LiveryList on the site- unless you have chosen to include them in your listing. We also do not publish email addresses on our listings or on the site, these are hidden from users and replaced with a contact form which is sent directly to the registered user from their listing. Because all of our payments are processed securely and externally via your own PayPal account, we also do not have access to any of your payment details and as such, none of them are stored on our system.

We follow the regulations as advised by the ICO (Information Commissioners Office) to meet the new GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations), and for further peace of mind for our users, the LiveryList site holds an SSC (Site Security Certificate), anti-spam filters and CAPTCHA’s.

Basically its a very safe site for you to use (which is why you spot that little green tick next to our links and the padlock by the web address!) and by consenting to us using your email address as mentioned above, or by submitting your personal details on your listings, we agree to ensure we stay within the boundaries of the above policy to keep your details safe and secure.
