Locatalyze is an informational tool only. The reports, scores, verdicts, financial projections, competitor data, demographic estimates, and all other outputs produced by Locatalyze:
By using Locatalyze, you acknowledge that you have read this disclaimer, understand its contents, and agree that any commercial decision you make is entirely your own responsibility. Locatalyze, its directors, employees, contractors, and affiliates accept no liability for any loss, damage, or harm arising from your use of or reliance on the outputs of this service.
We strongly recommend that before signing any lease or committing to a business location, you consult a qualified accountant, a commercial solicitor, and a business adviser who can assess your specific circumstances.
The Platform is operated by VSG Group Australia Pty Ltd (trading as Locatalyze) ("we", "us", "our") as an online location feasibility analysis service accessible at locatalyze.com and associated domains (the "Platform").
The Platform uses publicly available geographic data, a deterministic, rules-based scoring engine (versioned on each report — e.g. v2.1) to produce feasibility scores and GO / CAUTION / NO verdicts, and separate algorithmic financial modelling. Written narrative sections (such as SWOT and market commentary) may be produced using artificial intelligence (AI) on top of those computed results. The narrative explains the analysis; it does not replace the underlying scoring rules. Reports are indicative and provided as a starting point for user research only.
Data sources include Google Maps Platform (competitor discovery and ratings), Geoapify (secondary place-of-interest coverage), Mapbox (address geocoding and coordinate pinning), Australian Bureau of Statistics (demographic estimates), and OpenAI (AI-generated narrative analysis text — e.g. GPT-4o-mini / GPT-4 class models as disclosed in-product). These sources may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate.
By creating an account, accessing, or using the Platform, 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 Platform.
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by email or by displaying a notice on the Platform. Your continued use of the Platform after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

You are responsible for:
You must not use the Platform to generate reports for fraudulent purposes, to mislead third parties, or in any manner that violates applicable law.
Free accounts receive a limited number of analyses as stated on the pricing page. Free tier limits are non-transferable and do not reset upon report deletion.
Paid plans are sold as one-off report packs (for example, a single report, 3-report pack, or 10-report pack) priced in Australian Dollars (AUD) inclusive of GST where applicable. We do not sell lifetime access or general-purpose subscriptions — only report credits as shown on the pricing page. Report credits do not expire while your account remains active. Payments are processed securely by Stripe. We do not store your payment card details.
Due to the digital nature of our service, all sales are generally final once a report has been generated. However, we comply with our obligations under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). If the service has a major failure as defined under the ACL, you are entitled to a remedy including a refund.
If you are dissatisfied with a report, please contact us at legal@locatalyze.com.au and we will work to resolve your concern. Refund requests made within 7 days of purchase for unused report credits (where no report has been generated against the credit) will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
The Platform, including its software, algorithms, design, methodology, and branding, is owned by Locatalyze and protected by Australian copyright law. You must not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from any part of the Platform without our written consent.
Reports generated for your account are licensed to you for personal and internal business use only. You may not resell, sublicense, or publicly distribute report outputs without our written permission.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Locatalyze and its directors, employees, agents, and affiliates will not be liable to you for any loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of business opportunity, loss of data, indirect loss, consequential loss, or any other loss arising from your use of or reliance on the Platform or any report generated by it.
Our total aggregate liability to you for any claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Platform will not exceed the total amount you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim.
In particular, we are not liable for:
These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory under which the claim is brought (contract, tort, negligence, statute, or otherwise) and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such loss.
Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any right or remedy, or any guarantee, warranty, or other term or condition, that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other applicable legislation.
Under the Australian Consumer Law, consumers are entitled to certain automatic guarantees including that services will be rendered with due care and skill, fit for the purpose for which they are supplied, and provided within a reasonable time. Where these guarantees apply and are not met, you may be entitled to a remedy.
To the extent our services are not acquired as a consumer (i.e. acquired for business purposes and the amount paid exceeds $100,000), we limit our liability for failure to comply with a guarantee to re-supplying the service or paying the cost of having the service re-supplied.
Your use of the Platform is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Platform, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in our Privacy Policy.
We may suspend or terminate your account at any time if you breach these Terms, engage in fraudulent or unlawful activity, or for any other reason at our sole discretion with reasonable notice.
You may close your account at any time by contacting us at legal@locatalyze.com.au. Upon closure, your reports will be deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
