Terms of use

Last updated: 9 November 2026

These terms apply to your use of The Service Magazine, a free public site operated by Setjob, a trading name of SETJOB LTD (company number 16620992), 124–128 City Road, London, England, EC1V 2NJ. By using the site, you agree to use it lawfully and respectfully. If you do not agree, please stop using it.

What the magazine provides

The magazine publishes general editorial, news, blog and industry information about cleaning, trades and related services. It is provided for information and interest, not as professional, legal, financial, health, safety or other specialist advice. Check important information independently and obtain appropriate professional advice for your circumstances.

The company directory is a moderated publishing service, not a contractor, agency, recommendation or guarantee. A company chooses which public details to submit; we may review, edit, approve, decline, pause or remove a listing. A verified badge is an editorial or administrative label based on our review, not independent certification. It does not confirm licensing, insurance, quality, availability, safety, suitability or endorsement. You must make your own checks before engaging a business.

Event and Setjob Summit pages may link to registration or another service. Registration can be handled outside the magazine and may have separate terms, privacy information and organiser instructions. Those arrangements apply to the relevant registration or event.

Using magazine content

Unless a page says otherwise, the magazine’s name, design and editorial content are owned by or licensed to Setjob. You may read, link to and share ordinary extracts with accurate attribution, subject to copyright, trade mark, database and other applicable law. You may also rely on legal exceptions such as fair dealing where they apply. Do not copy substantial parts, systematically scrape the site, sell or repackage our material, or imply that we endorse you or a product without permission.

Submissions and listings

You must have the right and authority to submit text, images, logos, links and business information. Do not send confidential information, someone else’s personal data without a lawful basis, or material that infringes another person’s rights. You keep ownership of material you submit. You grant SETJOB LTD a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, review, edit for clarity or format, reproduce and publish the submitted material only as needed to assess, edit or publish it in connection with the magazine. This is not an exclusive transfer of ownership and does not require you to waive other rights.

Private editorial contact details supplied with a story or directory submission are not automatically published. We may use them to administer and review the submission. A story suggestion may be declined or turned into a draft; submission does not promise publication, payment or attribution in a particular form. For a directory listing, you remain responsible for keeping your supplied business information accurate and for having authority to display any public contact details.

Tell us about a correction, rights concern or removal request through theservicemagazine.com/contact. We will consider it carefully. This process does not remove any statutory rights or lawful remedies.

Acceptable use

Do not use the site to send spam, malware or abusive material; impersonate a person or business; probe, disrupt or overload the service; harvest personal data; publish unlawful, defamatory, discriminatory or confidential material; infringe intellectual property or privacy rights; or use the site for fraud or another unlawful purpose. We may limit, reject or remove activity that risks people, the service or the integrity of the magazine.

Availability and responsibility

We aim to operate the magazine with reasonable care, but we do not promise that every page will always be available, current, complete, secure or free of errors. Content, links and directory information can change, and third-party sites or events are outside our control. We may maintain, change or discontinue features.

We will provide the site with reasonable care and skill as required by law. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that the law does not allow us to exclude or limit, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or non-excludable consumer rights. You retain any statutory protections that apply to you.

Privacy and changes

Our Privacy Policy explains how submissions, newsletter details, listings, cookies and technical logs are handled.

Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales will have jurisdiction, subject to any rights you may have under applicable law.
