Disclaimer
Storage Compass is a market-intelligence tool. Nothing on this website is investment, valuation, planning, legal, tax, surveying or financial advice. Do not make an acquisition, lending, planning or development decision on the basis of our data without independent professional verification.
1. Data accuracy
Data is aggregated from public registers (Companies House, HM Land Registry, local planning authorities, ONS, UK Police, Ordnance Survey open data, OpenStreetMap), operator websites, third-party APIs, and our own modelling. Sources vary in freshness and completeness. Records may be missing, mis-classified, out of date, mis-geocoded, or reflect operator-published information we have not independently verified.
2. Estimates & modelled figures
Metrics including — but not limited to — supply-gap scores, catchment demographics, drive-time isochrones, build-cost estimates, occupancy proxies, rent comps, filing-health signals, gem scores and site underwriting outputs are estimates derived from statistical models and public benchmarks (e.g. SSA UK annual reports, Census 2021). They are indicative only and should not be used as valuations or feasibility conclusions.
3. Land designations
Green Belt, brownfield register and other designation overlays are served from local authority open-data feeds where available. Boundaries are shown for orientation only and are not a substitute for a formal planning search or a local plan review. Always verify with the relevant Local Planning Authority.
4. Planning & regulatory content
Planning application data is sourced from LPA feeds and PlanIt. Status, decisions and conditions may lag the LPA record. Do not treat the platform as an official planning register.
5. Third-party content
Where we display satellite imagery, Street View, mapping tiles, company records or operator logos, those materials remain the property of and are subject to the terms of their respective providers (including Google Maps Platform, Companies House, and OpenStreetMap contributors under ODbL).
6. No professional relationship
Use of the Service does not create a surveyor, agent, valuer, solicitor, accountant, financial adviser, planner or fiduciary relationship between you and Storage Compass or its operator.
7. Forward-looking statements
Any forward-looking commentary (market outlooks, undersupply/oversupply verdicts, opportunity scoring) reflects opinion based on the data available at the time and is subject to change without notice.
8. Reporting an issue
If you spot inaccurate data — particularly about a facility you operate, a planning record, or a personal detail — email info@storagecompass.co.uk and we will review promptly.
9. Cookies
We use strictly necessary cookies for authentication, security and billing. Analytics and preference cookies are only set with your consent. Manage your choices from the cookie preferences link in the footer.
10. AI-generated summaries
Some narrative summaries surfaced across the Service — for example facility pros/cons, opportunity write-ups and gem descriptions — are generated by large language models from the underlying source data listed in section 1 and on our attributions page. AI outputs can contain errors, misattribute facts, or fall out of date. Always verify against the cited source before acting on a summary. We correct genuine errors promptly — email info@storagecompass.co.uk.
