SlothMove
The SlothMove service is included within the SlothPlatform setup fee, and if you use this service you agree to the terms set out by SlothMove which can be found here.
SlothGuard
The SlothGuard service, provided by SlothGuard Ltd (Company number: 14350606) is designed to reduce your risk of property title fraud by providing updates on certain types of suspicious activity relating to your property.
When there is a significant activity on the property you are monitoring, SlothGuard will share an alert. For example, if an application is submitted with regard to the property. This will include information such as the type of activity, the applicant and when it was received.
It's important to note that not all alerts mean fraudulent activity has occurred and if you don't believe it is suspicious you don't necessarily need to act. This service does not stop fraud from happening and the responsibility to decide on whether an activity is fraudulent and whether to act is at the sole responsibility of the user.
This service is provided to reduce the risk of growing property fraud and is provided on a best-endeavours basis. SlothPlatform accepts no liability to you or any third party for any losses arising from delays to the provision of services, for example through:
Not all alert emails will mean fraudulent activity. If you don't think the alert email is about any suspicious activity, you don't need to do anything. SlothPlatform accepts no liability for any loss stemming from the provision of services in the platform, including SlothGuard.
Signing up to Property Alert won't automatically stop fraud from happening. You will need to decide if the activity on the property is potentially fraudulent and act quickly if so. The alert email will tell you who to contact.
