Hi all
I'm new to this forum, and hope someone can help.
I'm looking to build a website based community. Where people joining can get a profile and a range of services in the UK
I plan to have a directory and advertise and review sites, for example model agencies.
Few things I would like to know,
1.Is it ok to put model agencies in my directory using their logo to advertise their page without permission? Or do they have to give me permission or ask to be in this directory?
Really the same applies to any business like training courses for example.
2.Say after 3 months I have lots of users, for example I have 1000 users. I may decide to become an agency myself, or even offer my own courses similar to those I've previously advertised in my directory……Is this perfectly fine and legal to do?
3.If one of these companies I have advertised post on their social media accounts etc., recommending my site to their customers as it contains useful information (and at that point no competition). And in the future I became competition to them, could they sue me by saying I always knew I would become competition to them?
4.Does it make matter worse if I asked them for a shout out rather than off their own back? or does it not matter either way?
I would like to point out that my site is completely free to join and atm the only revenue I would make would be through paid ads
