Terms of Service — The Trusted Landlord


1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account on The Trusted Landlord, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the service.

These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User", "you") and Vallnor Alliance Ltd, trading as The Trusted Landlord ("we", "us", "The Trusted Landlord"). Vallnor Alliance Ltd is the same company you contracted with under any earlier version of these Terms; only its trading name has changed.


2. Description of the Service

The Trusted Landlord is a property management web application designed for private landlords in the United Kingdom. The service allows you to:

  • Track and manage a portfolio of residential and commercial properties
  • Monitor tenancy, mortgage, insurance, and compliance information
  • View cashflow summaries and portfolio analytics
  • Store and organise property-related documents
  • Access guidance, templates, and tools to support landlord compliance
  • Use AI-assisted guidance (when the Alma feature is available)

The service is intended for landlords managing between 1 and 20 properties. Use by letting agents, property management companies, or institutional investors is not within the intended scope of this service.


3. Important Disclaimer — Templates, Documents, and Tools

⚠️ READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY.

Any contract templates, compliance checklists, guidance articles, letter templates, or other documents and tools made available through The Trusted Landlord (including via the Advice Hub, document library, or Alma AI assistant) are provided for informational and reference purposes only.

They do not constitute legal advice, and should not be relied upon as such.

You assume sole responsibility for any document, template, or tool you choose to use, adapt, download, or rely upon. You must satisfy yourself that any document is appropriate for your specific circumstances, complies with applicable law, and has been reviewed by a qualified solicitor or other relevant professional where necessary.

Vallnor Alliance Ltd accepts no liability whatsoever for:

  • Any legal dispute, claim, or proceedings arising from your use of any template or document
  • Any financial loss, penalty, fine, or regulatory sanction arising from your use of any template, guidance, or tool
  • Any reliance on information provided by the Alma AI assistant or any other feature of the service

This disclaimer applies to all features of The Trusted Landlord, whether provided at launch or added in future.

Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use The Trusted Landlord. By creating an account, you confirm you are at least 18 and have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement.

Each account is for individual use. You may not share your account with others or create multiple accounts for the same individual.


5. Subscription and Payment

Subscription tiers

The Trusted Landlord is a paid service. Tiers scale with the number of properties you manage. Current tiers and prices are shown on the Prices page. There is no free tier.

Paid subscriptions

Paid subscriptions are available on monthly or annual billing cycles. Pricing is displayed on the Prices page. All prices are in British pounds (GBP) and are exclusive of VAT. Vallnor Alliance Ltd is not currently VAT registered; no VAT is charged on subscriptions at this time. If Vallnor Alliance Ltd becomes VAT registered in future, VAT will be added to the displayed price and subscribers will be notified in advance.

Free trial

A 90-day free trial of a paid plan is available once per user account. If you have previously held a trial or a paid subscription with us, billing begins immediately when you subscribe, and we will tell you this clearly before you enter your payment details. You will be asked to provide payment details at the start of your trial. Your payment method will be charged at the end of the trial period unless you cancel beforehand.

Payment processing

All payments are processed by Stripe, Inc. By subscribing, you agree to Stripe's Terms of Service. We do not store your card details.

Cancellation and refunds

14-day cooling-off period
If you subscribe to a paid tier for the first time, you have the right to cancel within 14 days of your subscription starting and receive a full refund. This is your statutory right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. To exercise this right, email hello@thetrustedlandlord.co.uk with the subject line "Cancellation Request" within 14 days of subscribing.

Cancellation after 14 days
You may cancel your subscription at any time via the Billing section of your account. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. Access to paid features continues until that date.

Our goodwill refund commitment
We want every customer to be happy with The Trusted Landlord. If you are not satisfied with the product after the 14-day cooling-off period:

  • Monthly subscribers: we will refund your most recent monthly payment in full, with no deductions, provided you contact us within 30 days of that payment being taken.
  • Annual subscribers: we will refund your annual payment in full, with no deductions, provided you contact us within 30 days of that payment being taken. After 30 days, your subscription continues until the end of your annual term and will not renew if you cancel.

Together, these mean: 90 days free, then a 30-day money-back guarantee. Nothing is charged during your trial. If you are charged and change your mind within 30 days of that payment, you get it back in full.

To request a goodwill refund, email hello@thetrustedlandlord.co.uk with the subject line "Refund Request". We will process eligible refunds within 10 working days.

This goodwill refund commitment is in addition to, and does not affect, your statutory rights.

Price changes

We reserve the right to change subscription prices with 30 days' notice. You will be notified by email. Continued use of the service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the new price.
