Terms of Use

These terms govern your use of the TradeDraft app and document library. By creating an account or using the service, you agree to them. Please read them alongside our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy.

In plain English
  • TradeDraft starts with a 14-day free trial. No card needed, nothing charged. After that it's a paid subscription (£29/month or £290/year) and you'll always see the price and confirm before you pay.
  • Cancel any time. You keep access until the end of any period you've paid for.
  • The documents are professional templates to start from, not legal advice. Check they fit your job before you rely on them.
  • Your data, and the documents you make, are yours.
  • If something goes wrong, our liability is limited, but we don't try to dodge the things the law says we can't.
  • Nothing here takes away your legal rights as a consumer.

This is the gist, for convenience. The full terms below are what actually apply.

Who we are

TradeDraft is a sole-trader business based in England. You can reach us at hello@tradedraft.co.uk or by post at Lytchett House, 13 Freeland Park, Wareham Road, Poole, Dorset BH16 6FA. In these terms, "we", "us" and "TradeDraft" mean that business, and "you" means the account holder.

What the service is

TradeDraft is an online tool that helps you build professional quotes and related documents for your trade. It does not give legal, accounting, tax or other regulated advice, and the documents it produces are general templates, not advice tailored to a specific job. You are responsible for what you enter and for the documents you send to your own clients.

Online acceptance and payments from your customers

TradeDraft can create a secure link for your customer to read, accept and sign a quote, and can raise an invoice from an accepted quote. Where card payment is offered, your customer pays through your own Stripe account: the money goes directly to you, TradeDraft never holds or handles it, and Stripe's own terms apply to those payments. The contract for the work is between you and your customer; TradeDraft is not a party to it. Acceptance records (your customer's typed name, the date and time, and their device's IP address and browser) are stored as part of your quote data, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Your account

You must be at least 18 and using the service for your trade or business. Keep your login details secure and give accurate information. You are responsible for activity under your account.

Free trial

TradeDraft starts with a 14-day free trial. We do not take card details to begin the trial, so nothing is charged during it and it does not turn into a paid subscription automatically. You choose whether to subscribe when the trial ends. The free trial applies to both the monthly and the annual plan.

Pricing and billing

After the free trial, TradeDraft is a paid subscription: £29 per month or £290 per year. Prices are not subject to VAT. Billing is handled securely by Stripe. The price and billing frequency are shown clearly before you pay, and you confirm before any payment is taken.

Renewal and cancellation

Once you subscribe, your plan renews automatically at the end of each period until you cancel. You can cancel at any time from your account or by emailing us; cancelling stops the next renewal, and you keep access until the end of the period you have already paid for. We will not take a renewal payment without the price and date having been made clear to you in advance.

Refunds and your right to cancel

Refunds are covered by our Refund Policy. Because TradeDraft begins with a free trial and takes no payment until you actively subscribe, there is normally nothing to refund. If you are a consumer buying online, you also have a statutory right to cancel within 14 days. The one exception is a digital service or download you ask to start straight away: you can agree to waive the right for those (as can apply to our template downloads), and we'll always make that clear at the time. Where the statutory right applies, it operates on top of our own terms and prevails over anything written here.

The documents are not legal advice

TradeDraft documents are general, professional templates provided as a starting point only. They're not tailored legal advice, and we're not your solicitor. We can't promise a document is suitable, complete, current or enforceable for your specific situation. You are responsible for checking a document suits your job, and for the commercial outcome of any contract you enter into. VAT, CIS and similar figures are indicative. Confirm your position with HMRC. For high-value or contentious work, take your own professional advice.

Your content and data

You keep ownership of the information you enter and the documents you create. We process your data only to provide the service, as set out in our Privacy Policy. You are responsible for the accuracy and lawfulness of what you enter.

Data processing (your clients' information)

Some of what you enter (your client's name, contact details and job specifics) is personal data about your clients. For that information you are the data controller and TradeDraft is your data processor. In practice that means:

  • We only use it to run the service, on your instructions.
  • We keep it confidential and secure.
  • We only share it with the services we use behind the scenes ("sub-processors") listed in our Privacy Policy: currently Supabase, Stripe, Payhip (checkout for the document-template shop), Netlify, Cloudflare, MailerLite and Resend (transactional email).
  • When you close your account, we delete or return it as described there.

You remain responsible for having a lawful basis to hold your clients' data and for handling their data-protection requests, and we will help you respond to any such request.

Acceptable use and intellectual property

You may use the documents on your own jobs, as many times as you like, and adapt them with your details. We keep ownership of the app and the underlying template designs; you receive a licence to use them for your own trade. You may not:

  • resell or redistribute the templates as your own template product;
  • reverse-engineer the app;
  • generate documents commercially on behalf of unrelated third parties;
  • present the documents as bespoke legal advice.

Availability

The service is provided "as is" and "as available". Features may change over time, and we cannot promise the service will always be uninterrupted or error-free. We will take reasonable care to keep it running and to look after your data.

Our liability to you

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for your statutory rights as a consumer (if you're a consumer, nothing here affects your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 or other consumer law). Beyond that, we're not liable for indirect losses: lost profit, lost business, or the outcome of a contract you entered into using one of our documents. Our total liability to you is capped at the fees you've paid us in the previous twelve months, or £100, whichever is greater.

Ending your subscription

You can stop using the service and cancel at any time. We may suspend or end an account that breaches these terms or is used unlawfully. If we withdraw the service entirely, we will give reasonable notice and a fair refund of any period paid for in advance.

Complaints

If something isn't right, email hello@tradedraft.co.uk. We'll acknowledge your complaint as soon as we can and do our best to put it right. For data-protection concerns you can also contact the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Changes and governing law

We may update these terms, giving at least 14 days' notice of material changes. These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and any dispute would be handled by the courts of England and Wales.
