Legal · Version 1.2
Terms of Service
Effective from 17 October 2026. These terms form a binding agreement between you and Norbert Chaber, trading as DataDeal.
Not financial, tax, legal or investment advice
DataDeal is an information and analytics platform. Every number the platform produces — Stamp Duty Land Tax estimates, refurbishment cost ranges, strategy yields, Maximum Allowable Offer projections, mortgage assumptions, Land Registry comparables and ONS rent baselines — is an estimate derived from publicly available data and published rate tables. The output is not regulated financial advice, tax advice, legal advice or a personal recommendation under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
You are solely responsible for verifying any figure against authoritative sources (HMRC, HM Land Registry, your conveyancer, your accountant, your mortgage broker, the planning authority of record) before relying on it for an offer, a contract, a tax return, a mortgage application or any other binding decision. DataDeal is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
1. Who we are
These Terms are issued by Norbert Chaber, trading as DataDeal (“DataDeal”, “we”, “us”, “our”). DataDeal is a trading name of Norbert Chaber, a sole trader. Business address: 20 Norgate Road, Norwich, Norfolk, NR4 7BT, United Kingdom. VAT registration number: GB 196 4421 85. ICO registration: ZC131565. These Terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
You can contact us at datadeal50@gmail.com.
2. The service
DataDeal is a software-as-a-service platform for UK property investors. It ingests data from public registers (HM Land Registry Price Paid, Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government Planning Data, Ordnance Survey Code-Point Open, postcodes.io, the Office for National Statistics, the Bank of England), combines it with property details you enter and returns multi-strategy investment models (Buy-to-Let, BRRRR, House in Multiple Occupation, Flip, Rent-to-Serviced-Accommodation, Purchase Lease Option), a Maximum Allowable Offer calculator, an SDLT calculator and a refurbishment cost estimator.
We may add, change, deprecate or remove features at any time. Material changes that reduce functionality on a paid plan will be notified by email at least 30 days in advance where reasonably practicable.
3. Accounts
To use the authenticated portion of the platform you must register an account, keep your credentials confidential and notify us immediately at datadeal50@gmail.com of any unauthorised access. You are responsible for activity that occurs under your account.
You confirm that you are at least 18 years old and acting in a commercial capacity. DataDeal is a B2B product and is not intended for consumers in the sense of the Consumer Rights Act 2015, although where any provision of these Terms would be unenforceable against a consumer it is read down to the minimum extent necessary.
4. Subscriptions, trials and billing
Paid plans are billed monthly in advance via Stripe Payments UK Ltd. All prices on the pricing page are quoted inclusive of UK VAT at the prevailing rate (currently 20%); the ex-VAT equivalent is shown alongside each price. See our VAT information page for invoice and reverse-charge details.
New paid subscriptions include a seven (7) day free trial that starts on registration. No payment is taken during the trial. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, the first month is charged automatically. You can cancel at any time through the Stripe Customer Portal accessible from your account billing page; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period and you retain access until then.
Failed payments are retried by Stripe according to its standard dunning schedule. After the final retry your account is downgraded to the Free tier and your access to paid features is suspended; saved analyses remain readable.
5. Refunds
Cooling-off: if you cancel within 14 days of your first payment (Account > Subscription > Cancel with refund), we refund the unused part of that payment, in proportion to the days left, within 14 days.
Outside that period, monthly fees already charged are not refunded. We will, however, refund a charge in full where you can show a material service failure on our side (for example, an extended outage of the analysis engine that we have acknowledged in our status page). Refund requests should be sent to datadeal50@gmail.com within thirty (30) days of the charge.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- scrape, redistribute or resell the platform output or the raw third-party data we surface (HM Land Registry, MHCLG, Ordnance Survey and ONS data remain subject to their own licence terms, which we summarise on the data sources page);
- attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile or extract the proprietary strategy engine, scoring models or rate tables;
- use the platform to harass, discriminate against or unlawfully profile any individual;
- share a single user account between more than one natural person — each seat requires its own login;
- submit any URL that you are not authorised to analyse, or any URL that breaches the terms of the source website;
- interfere with the platform’s rate limits, security controls or other users’ sessions.
We may suspend an account that breaches this clause without notice and, in serious cases, terminate without refund.
7. Intellectual property and your content
The platform, including its strategy engine, calculators, user interface, brand and code, is owned by Norbert Chaber, trading as DataDealand licensed to you for the duration of your active subscription on a non-exclusive, non-transferable basis.
You retain ownership of the property details, listing links, notes and inputs you submit. You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free licence to process that input for the sole purpose of providing the service to you. We do not sell, syndicate or use your inputs to train any third-party AI model.
8. Third-party data and accuracy
Public-register data shown in the platform is provided “as is” under the licences of the originating authorities (Open Government Licence v3.0 for HM Land Registry, MHCLG, ONS and Ordnance Survey Code-Point Open). Rates of Stamp Duty Land Tax, mortgage benchmarks (Bank of England IADB), indicative refurb labour and materials ranges (DataDeal’s own table, not an official statistic) reflect the latest verified snapshot at the time of the analysis but may have been superseded by the time you read this. The strategy engine uses the rates shown in the analysis output and theRates audit banner identifies the effective date and source of each rate used.
We make commercially reasonable efforts to keep the data current. We do not warrant that any specific figure is accurate on any given day. See the Not financial advice box above.
9. Liability
Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded under the law of England and Wales.
Subject to that, our total aggregate liability arising under or in connection with these Terms, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, is limited to the total subscription fees you have paid to us in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or one hundred pounds sterling (£100), whichever is the greater.
We are not liable for indirect, consequential or special losses, for loss of profit, loss of business, loss of opportunity, loss of anticipated savings, loss of goodwill or for any losses arising from a decision you took on the basis of platform output without the independent verification described in the Not financial advice notice and clause 8.
10. Data protection
Our processing of your personal data is governed by our Privacy Notice. That notice forms part of these Terms.
11. Suspension and termination
Either party may terminate the agreement on thirty (30) days’ notice. You can downgrade or cancel through the Stripe Customer Portal at any time. We may suspend or terminate your account immediately for material breach of the acceptable-use clause, for non-payment after the final Stripe dunning retry, or where we are required to do so by law.
On termination we will retain your saved analyses for thirty (30) days so you can re-subscribe and recover them; after that they are deleted in accordance with our retention schedule (see the Privacy Notice).
12. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The version number and effective date at the top of this page change with each revision. Where a change is material — for example, a new liability cap or a removal of paid-tier functionality — we will email subscribers at least thirty (30) days before it takes effect. Continued use of the platform after the effective date of a change is acceptance of the revised Terms.
13. Governing law and disputes
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of them (including non-contractual disputes or claims) are governed by the law of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction.
