How the directory is maintained

About Pure Local

Pure Local is an independent Australian business directory established in 2014. It helps users discover businesses through searchable profiles containing descriptions, contact details, locations, service areas, websites, images and customer reviews where available.

Read listing standards

Manual publishing review

New listings are checked before publication for Australian relevance, completeness, legitimacy and compliance with editorial standards.

Ongoing maintenance

Outdated, inactive, misleading or non-compliant profiles may be corrected, investigated, suspended or removed.

Review screening

Customer reviews are screened for compliance. Screening reduces abuse but does not independently verify every statement made by a reviewer.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers about eligibility, verification, fees, customer reviews, listing management and support.

What is Pure Local?

Which businesses can apply for a Pure Local listing?

How do I add my business to Pure Local?

Submit the business through the Pure Local listing form. Prepare an original description of at least 400 words, at least three suitable images, accurate contact information and evidence that the submitter is authorised to act for the business.

How does Pure Local verify business listings?

Pure Local may compare submitted details with the business website, social profiles, public records, mapping information and other credible sources. The editorial team may also contact the business by email or phone.

How can I update my business listing?

Does Pure Local charge recurring listing fees?

Pure Local does not charge recurring monthly or annual subscription fees for standard business listings. A one-time activation fee may apply during submission, and any applicable amount is shown before payment is completed.

How are customer reviews handled?

Customer reviews are screened before publication for compliance with the review policy. Reviews may be withheld, investigated or removed when Pure Local reasonably believes they are fraudulent, unlawful, defamatory, misleading, unrelated to a genuine experience or otherwise non-compliant.

Can Pure Local resolve a dispute with a listed business?

Pure Local is not a party to transactions between consumers and listed businesses and does not act as a dispute-resolution service. It may investigate credible complaints and take directory action where a listing breaches published policies.

Why might a listing be removed?

A listing may be removed for spam, inaccurate or misleading information, failed verification, inactivity, permanent closure, serious policy breaches or failure to cooperate with a reasonable verification or complaint investigation.

Policies and terms

These terms explain the conditions that apply when using Pure Local or submitting content. They should be read together with the dedicated privacy policy and listing guidelines. Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.

General support and listing enquiries should be sent to support@purelocal.com.au. Formal legal requests may be sent to legal@purelocal.com.au. Copyright infringement notices may be sent to dmca@purelocal.com.au or to the postal address shown above.

Privacy and personal information

Pure Local uses personal information to manage accounts and listings, review submissions, respond to enquiries, investigate complaints, prevent misuse and provide directory-related support. Information is not shared with third-party marketing partners unless the user has clearly opted in. Read the Pure Local Privacy Policy for fuller details.

1. User responsibility

Users are responsible for ensuring that submitted information is accurate, lawful, current and authorised for publication. Submitted content must not infringe third-party rights, contain misleading claims or violate applicable law.

2. Copyright infringement notices

A notice should identify the copyrighted work, the allegedly infringing material and its location, the rights holder or authorised representative, relevant contact details and a good-faith explanation of the request. Pure Local may request further information before taking action.

3. Third-party businesses and services

Pure Local publishes information about independent businesses but is not a party to transactions between users and listed businesses. Users should conduct their own enquiries before purchasing products or engaging services.

4. Customer review policy

Reviews may be withheld, investigated or removed where Pure Local reasonably believes they are fraudulent, unlawful, defamatory, misleading, submitted without a genuine experience or otherwise breach the published review rules. Businesses may request investigation of a suspicious review by contacting support.

5. Listing fees and paid services

Pure Local does not charge recurring monthly or annual subscription fees for standard listings. A one-time activation fee or optional paid feature may apply, and the applicable price is shown before payment. Refunds and remedies are considered according to the circumstances and applicable Australian law.

6. Listing submission requirements

The submitter must be the business owner, an authorised employee or an approved representative. The account email must be monitored, submitted information must be accurate, and the submitter must have permission to use all logos, trademarks, photographs and other content provided.

7. Licence to display submitted content

By submitting authorised content, the account holder grants Pure Local a non-exclusive licence to host, reproduce, format, display and distribute that content for operating, promoting and presenting the directory and associated business profile. Ownership of the submitted content remains with its lawful owner.

8. Website content and permitted use

Pure Local website content may not be copied, republished, distributed or modified without permission, except where permitted by law. Linking to publicly available Pure Local pages is permitted when the link is accurate, lawful and does not imply an endorsement that has not been granted.

9. Listing investigation, suspension and removal

Pure Local may investigate, correct, suspend or remove a listing for spam, inaccurate or misleading information, failed verification, inactivity, permanent closure, serious policy breaches, credible evidence of serious or repeated misconduct, or failure to cooperate with a reasonable investigation. A complaint alone is not automatically treated as proven misconduct.

10. Account suspension and termination

Access may be restricted or terminated where an account is used for fraud, spam, harassment, unlawful activity, repeated policy breaches, unauthorised submissions or interference with the directory. Where appropriate, Pure Local may contact the account holder before final action.

11. Editorial moderation

Pure Local may correct formatting, spelling, categorisation and presentation; request supporting information; decline content; and make reasonable editorial changes needed to maintain directory quality. Material claims should not be changed in a way that misrepresents the business.

12. Changes to policies

Policies may be updated when services, legal requirements or moderation practices change. The current version published on this page applies from its stated review date. Material changes should be reflected in the visible date.

13. Availability and warranties

Pure Local aims to keep the service available and accurate but does not guarantee uninterrupted access or that every third-party listing is error-free. This clause is subject to rights and guarantees that cannot lawfully be excluded.

14. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Pure Local is not responsible for indirect or consequential loss arising solely from reliance on third-party business information, external websites or transactions with listed businesses. This limitation does not apply where liability cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

15. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws applicable in Queensland, Australia. Users are encouraged to contact Pure Local first so concerns can be considered informally. Any jurisdiction clause remains subject to mandatory rights and applicable law.

16. Disputes between users

Consumers and listed businesses are responsible for resolving their transaction disputes directly or through an appropriate external dispute-resolution process. Pure Local may investigate directory-policy concerns but does not act as a court, tribunal or compulsory mediator.
