Terms & Conditions

1. Duty of Care & User Responsibility

WasteBolt is a tool designed to facilitate digital record-keeping for waste management. The User retains full legal responsibility for ensuring that all data entered (including EWC codes, weights, and descriptions) is accurate and complies with the Environmental Protection (Duty of Care) Regulations and other applicable UK laws.

2. Subscription Terms

• Free Trial: New accounts include a 7-day free trial. Upon expiry, continued access requires a paid subscription.
• Admin Pass: Grants access to the full dashboard and reporting tools.
• Driver Seats: These are additional paid add-ons billed annually. Access is restricted to the mobile-reporting interface.
• Cancellations: You may cancel your subscription at any time. No pro-rata refunds are provided for partial billing periods.

3. Accuracy of Free Tools

Our Free WTN Generator and EWC Code Lookup tools are provided "as-is" for guidance only. AR Enviro Consultancy Services does not warrant that these tools will meet specific regulatory audit requirements without professional oversight.

4. Service Availability & Third-Party Dependencies

WasteBolt relies on third-party infrastructure and services that are outside our direct control, including our database and hosting provider (Supabase), payment processing (Stripe), and, where applicable, the Defra Digital Waste Tracking (DWT) API and other government or regulatory submission endpoints.

• We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation of the Service, and we are not liable for any downtime, data delay, or loss of functionality caused by outages, maintenance, or failures of Supabase or any other third-party infrastructure provider.
• We are not liable for the unavailability, downtime, errors, or rejected submissions of the Defra DWT API or any other external government or regulatory system that WasteBolt integrates with or submits data to. Where such systems are unavailable, the User remains responsible for meeting their legal Duty of Care obligations through alternative means (for example, retaining paper or offline records) until the relevant system is restored.
• We are not liable for the User's own loss of internet connectivity, device failure, browser issues, or any other circumstance outside our reasonable control that prevents access to or use of the Service.
• Where reasonably possible we will provide notice of planned maintenance, but we accept no liability for losses arising from unplanned outages of the Service or of any third-party system it depends on.

5. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, AR Enviro Consultancy Services shall not be liable for any fines, penalties, or legal actions taken against the User by the Environment Agency (EA), NIEA, NRW, or any other regulatory body resulting from the use of the Service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, AR Enviro Consultancy Services shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss (including loss of data, business, or profit) arising from the unavailability of the Service, Supabase, the Defra DWT API, or the User's own internet or network connection, as described in Section 4 above.

6. Intellectual Property

The software, design, and logic of WasteBolt are the exclusive property of AR Enviro Consultancy Services. Users are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the platform during their active subscription period.
