By accessing or using Sandton.info (the "site") you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

2. Who we are

Sandton.info is an independent directory and editorial guide to Sandton, Johannesburg. References to "we", "us" or "our" mean the Sandton.info editorial team.

3. Accounts

You need an account to submit listings, leave reviews, favourite businesses or reply to reviews. You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure and for activity performed under your account.

4. Listings and business content

  • Anyone can submit a listing, but every submission is reviewed by our moderators before it appears publicly.
  • You must have the right to publish the information you submit, including business name, address, photos and descriptions.
  • Approved listings that you later edit (name, category, area, address, phone, website or description) return to a "pending" state and are re-reviewed before the changes go live.
  • We may edit, unpublish or remove any listing that we consider inaccurate, misleading, unlawful or off-topic.

5. Reviews and replies

  • Reviews must reflect a genuine experience with the business.
  • No hate speech, harassment, discriminatory content, personal attacks, private personal data, or content that infringes anyone's rights.
  • Business owners may post one reply per review. Replies are moderated before they appear publicly.
  • We may remove any review or reply that breaks these rules or appears to be fake, incentivised or off-topic.

6. Your content licence to us

When you submit a listing, review, reply, photo or other content, you grant Sandton.info a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, display, adapt for formatting, and distribute that content in connection with the site. You keep ownership of your content.

  • Submit false, misleading, or spammy listings or reviews.
  • Impersonate another person or business.
  • Scrape the site or attempt to access it by automated means without permission.

8. Third-party businesses

Listings describe third-party businesses. We do our best to keep information accurate, but we do not endorse or guarantee any listed business. Your dealings with those businesses are between you and them.
