These terms govern your use of the LeaseMisSelling website (the “Website”).

​

1. About LeaseMisSelling

LeaseMisSelling is a public-interest evidence platform investigating reported patterns of business lease and finance mis-selling affecting UK businesses.

The Website enables businesses to learn about the pattern being investigated, review published evidence and voluntarily register their own experiences.

LeaseMisSelling is an investigation by Priavo Intelligence.

​

2. We do not provide legal advice

LeaseMisSelling is not a law firm and does not provide legal, financial or regulatory advice.

Information published on this Website is provided for general information and public-interest research purposes only. It should not be relied upon as a substitute for independent professional advice about your individual circumstances.

​

Registering your experience does not create a solicitor-client relationship, establish a legal claim or mean that legal or regulatory action will be taken on your behalf.

​

If you require advice about a lease, finance agreement, complaint, limitation period or potential legal action, you should seek appropriate independent professional advice.

​

3. The investigation

LeaseMisSelling collects and analyses reported experiences and supporting information to investigate whether recurring characteristics or patterns exist across business lease and finance arrangements.

​

The presence of a company, finance provider, supplier, introducer or other organisation within submitted information does not, by itself, establish wrongdoing or unlawful conduct.

​

Where the Website refers to findings, decisions, correspondence or other evidence concerning a particular organisation, we aim to identify the relevant source and distinguish between reported experiences, published evidence and other forms of information.

​

The investigation may develop as further evidence becomes available. We may therefore amend, update, qualify or remove information published on the Website.

​

4. Registering your experience

You may use the Website to register an experience that you believe may be relevant to the investigation. Registration is free and does not commit you to legal action.

​

When submitting information, you agree that, to the best of your knowledge, the information you provide is accurate and provided in good faith.

​

Please do not knowingly submit false, misleading, defamatory, unlawful or fabricated information.

Submitting information does not guarantee that your experience will form part of any published evidence, regulatory submission, parliamentary briefing or other output from the investigation.

We may contact you for further information or clarification where you have given us permission to do so.

​

5. Documents and supporting evidence

You may be given the opportunity to provide documents relevant to your experience, including finance agreements, correspondence, supplier communications and collection or enforcement notices.

​

You should only provide documents that you are lawfully entitled to share.

​

Where possible, avoid submitting unnecessary personal information about other individuals. You should not submit passwords, payment card details or other information that is not relevant to the investigation.

​

Submitting a document does not mean that it will be published.

​

Any publication or wider use of submitted information will be subject to the permissions obtained from you, our Privacy Notice and any additional legal or editorial review considered necessary.

​

6. How submitted information may be used

Information submitted through the Website may be used to:

• assess whether your experience is relevant to the investigation;

• identify recurring characteristics across reported cases;

• analyse suppliers, introducers, finance arrangements and other relevant factors;

• support the development of an aggregated evidence base; and

• where appropriate and subject to the applicable permissions and legal requirements, inform regulatory or parliamentary submissions.

 

Further information about how we collect, store and use personal information is provided in our Privacy Notice.

​

7. Published evidence

LeaseMisSelling aims to present published evidence accurately and in context.

​

Evidence made available through the Website may include regulatory or ombudsman findings, correspondence, parliamentary materials, submissions and other documents considered relevant to the investigation.

​

Where third-party documents are provided, the views, findings or statements contained within them remain those of their respective authors or issuing organisations unless expressly stated otherwise.

Publication of material on this Website should not be interpreted as an allegation that any individual or organisation has acted unlawfully unless that conclusion is expressly supported by the source being cited.

​

8. Accuracy and availability

We take reasonable care when preparing information for the Website. However, an investigation of this nature may involve information from third parties, historical documentation and matters that continue to develop.

​

We therefore do not guarantee that all information on the Website will always be complete, current or error-free.

​

We may update, suspend, withdraw or change any part of the Website without notice.

​

9. External links

The Website may contain links to third-party websites, regulatory bodies, published decisions, source documents or other external resources.

​

These links are provided for information and reference. Unless expressly stated otherwise, we do not control or endorse third-party websites and are not responsible for their content, security or availability.

​

10. Intellectual property

Unless otherwise stated, the content created for the LeaseMisSelling Website, including its written content, branding, design and original investigation materials, is owned by or licensed to the Website operator.

​

You may quote or reference reasonable extracts for legitimate reporting, research, commentary or other lawful purposes, provided that LeaseMisSelling is appropriately credited and any applicable source attribution is retained.

​

Third-party documents, trademarks and other materials remain the property of their respective owners.

​

11. Acceptable use

You must not use the Website:

• for any unlawful or fraudulent purpose;

• to knowingly submit false or malicious information;

• to impersonate another person or organisation;

• to upload malicious software or attempt to compromise the Website's security;

• to interfere with the operation of the Website or submission system; or

• to obtain unauthorised access to information submitted by other users.

 

We may restrict access or remove material where reasonably necessary to protect the Website, the investigation or other users.

​

12. Liability

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where it would be unlawful to do so.

​

To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for loss arising solely from reliance on general information published on this Website or from a decision to take, delay or refrain from taking legal, financial or commercial action based upon that information.

​

You remain responsible for obtaining appropriate professional advice about your individual circumstances.

​

We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes to the Website, the investigation, applicable law or the way information is collected and used.

​

The latest version will always be published on this page with the date it was last updated.
