Terms of Use

Last updated: 15 November 2026

These terms apply when you use dobfind.co.uk. By using the site you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

1. About us

dobfind.co.uk is operated by [Company legal name], company number [number], registered office [address]. Contact: [support@dobfind.co.uk].

2. The service

DOBfind lets you search information about UK companies and their officers that is published on public registers, mainly by Companies House. We present this information in an easier format. We are not Companies House or any government body, and we are not connected to them.

Searching is free. We may add paid features later. If we do, their price and terms will be shown before you pay.

3. Acceptable use

You may use DOBfind for lawful purposes, such as:

• Checking who runs or owns a company before doing business with it
• Due diligence, fraud prevention and compliance checks
• Journalism, research and academic work
• Checking your own record

When you use personal data from this site, you are responsible for complying with the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).

4. What you must not do

• Use the site to harass, stalk, threaten, intimidate or locate any person
• Use the information to commit fraud or identity theft, or to impersonate anyone
• Send unsolicited marketing to directors in breach of PECR
• Scrape, crawl or bulk-download data, or use bots, except through any API we offer for that purpose
• Resell or republish our pages or compiled data
• Combine our data with other sources to build profiles of individuals
• Try to bypass rate limits, security or access controls, or disrupt the site
• Upload malware or unlawful content through the chat

We may report misuse to the police or the ICO.

5. Accuracy of information

Register data is filed by companies themselves. Companies House does not check most of it. We update our copy daily but cannot guarantee that it is complete, accurate or current. Always confirm important details on the official Companies House service before relying on them.

Directors can ask us to correct how we display their information on our request page.

6. Intellectual property

Register data contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. The design, software, text and compilation of this site belong to us.

7. Support chat

The chat is for questions about the site and your data. Please be respectful. Don't send passwords, bank details or identity documents unless we ask for a specific document to verify a request. We may close chats that are abusive. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle chat messages.

8. Our liability

The site is provided "as is". We are not liable for losses caused by relying on register information, or for indirect or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or anything else that cannot be limited under English law. If you are a consumer, your statutory rights are not affected.

9. Suspension

We may block access, without notice, to anyone who breaks these terms. We may change or stop the service at any time.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction, except that consumers in Scotland or Northern Ireland may bring proceedings in their own courts.

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version.
