Terms of service
Last updated 10 November 2026
These terms cover your use of New Venues, a service run by Orchard Co (“we” or “us”). By signing up or subscribing you agree to them.
What New Venues is
A list of new and upcoming licensed hospitality venues in Victoria and New South Wales, built from public liquor licensing records. Sources: Victorian liquor licences by location, Liquor Control Victoria (data.vic.gov.au), CC BY 4.0; Liquor & Gaming NSW application noticeboard. We add a venue type based on the licence category, and we never store an individual licensee's name. We're not affiliated with Liquor Control Victoria, Liquor & Gaming NSW or any government.
Accuracy
Victorian data is a monthly snapshot published by the regulator, so a “new” venue is a licence number that first appeared in that month's file; some are relocations or re-issued licences rather than brand-new venues. NSW rows are applications: many are approved and open, some are refused or withdrawn. Addresses are as given on the licence and may be out of date. Check anything that matters with the venue or the regulator.
How you may use the data
- Use it in your own business: research, prospecting, market analysis.
- If you contact venues from the list, you're responsible for complying with the law, including the Spam Act 2003 (commercial emails and texts need consent, which you can't assume from a licence record), the Do Not Call Register Act 2006, and the Privacy Act 1988 where it applies.
- Don't resell or republish the list, or share your feed link or exports outside your organisation.
- Don't use it to harass anyone, or to find or contact a person rather than a venue, and don't use it to object to licence applications on anyone else's behalf.
Plans and payment
- Paid plans are billed monthly in advance in Australian dollars through Stripe, and renew until you cancel.
- Cancel any time from your feed page (“Manage billing”). You keep access until the end of the period you've paid for.
- Refunds are covered in our refund policy. We may change prices with at least 30 days' notice by email.
Your rights under Australian law
Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law that can't be excluded. Subject to those rights, the feed is provided as is, and our total liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the previous three months.
Changes and contact
We may update these terms and will email paying subscribers about material changes. They're governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. Questions: hello@newvenuesau.com.
