Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026  |  Linking Locals (Pty) Ltd

By using the Link — Linking Locals platform ("the Platform"), you agree to the following terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Platform.

1. About the platform

Link — Linking Locals is a community directory for events, places, clubs, and deals. It connects users to local opportunities and listings submitted by third parties. We do not organise, host, or operate any of the listed events, businesses, clubs, or deals.

2. Listing accuracy & responsibility

All listings on this Platform are submitted by third parties. Linking Locals does not verify, edit, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or legality of any listing. You are solely responsible for ensuring your listing is accurate and up to date.

By submitting a listing, you confirm that you have the right to list the business, event, or organisation, and that the information provided is truthful and does not infringe any third-party rights.

Linking Locals reserves the right to remove any listing at its sole discretion, with or without notice, particularly if the listing contains false, misleading, illegal, or inappropriate content.

3. Sourced & curated listings

Some listings on this Platform may have been sourced from publicly available information, including websites, social media, event pages, and other public directories. Where sourced, listings will include a "Source" credit. Listing owners who wish to update or remove sourced listings may do so by submitting a removal request (see Section 7).

Linking Locals is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or in partnership with any sourced listing unless explicitly stated. Sourcing is done to build community awareness, not for commercial benefit at the expense of listing owners.

4. External links & ticket platforms

This Platform contains links to third-party websites, ticketing platforms, social media pages, and WhatsApp groups. These are provided for convenience only. Linking Locals has no control over, and accepts no responsibility for, the content, privacy practices, security, or reliability of any external site or service.

⚠️ Any ticket purchases, RSVPs, or transactions you make through external links are entirely between you and the third party. Linking Locals is not a party to those transactions and accepts no liability for any loss, fraud, cancellation, or disappointment arising from them.
