Terms of use

Last updated: 10 September 2026

These terms govern your use of futureproofpeps.com. By reading the site you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.

1. What this site is

Futureproof is an editorial resource on laboratory safety paperwork in the United Kingdom, published by Futureproof 2.0 Ltd, a company registered in the United Kingdom. It is published for general information. It is written for adult readers aged 18 and over.

2. Nothing is sold on this site

Nothing is offered for sale here. There is no catalogue, no price, no payment step and no order form, and no order can be placed through this site. Nothing on the site is an offer or an invitation to treat, and no contract of sale can be formed through it.

For the same reason there is deliberately no shipping policy, no returns policy and no refund policy on this site. Those would describe things this site does not do. Their absence is not an oversight.

3. We are not consultants

We carry out no risk assessments, inspections, audits or examinations, and we hold no records on behalf of anybody. Everything described here is general practice and the general content of UK law and guidance. Nothing on this site describes a service that we provide, and nothing here should be read as an assessment of any particular workplace, material, data sheet or procedure.

4. No professional advice

The content is general information, not professional health and safety, technical, regulatory or legal advice, and it is not a substitute for the judgement of a competent person who has seen the actual work in question. The law differs between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland in places, and legislation and guidance change over time. Decisions about any real workplace are yours, and where they matter you should take them with someone competent to see the specifics.

5. No claims about any product

Nothing on this site describes, recommends, compares, endorses or makes any claim about any product, material, treatment or substance, and no such claim is made or implied. No usage guidance for any material is given anywhere on the site.

6. Accuracy, and its limits

The content is written carefully and reviewed, but it is offered without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty of accuracy, completeness, currency or fitness for a particular purpose. References to legislation and standards are summaries, not reproductions; the source text is authoritative. If you find an error, please tell us and we will correct it.

7. Intellectual property

The text, layout and images on this site belong to Futureproof 2.0 Ltd unless stated otherwise. You may quote short extracts with attribution and a link. Republishing whole articles, or reproducing the site's structure and design, requires written permission. Ask; we usually say yes.

8. External links

Where the site links elsewhere, those destinations are not under our control and we are not responsible for their content, their accuracy or their handling of your data.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Futureproof 2.0 Ltd is not liable for any loss or damage arising from use of, or reliance on, anything published here, including indirect or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction, without prejudice to any mandatory rights you have where you live.

11. Changes

These terms may be updated. The date at the top of the page shows when they last were. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the current version.
