Business Listings Terms and Conditions

ALS maintains a comprehensive business listing database of both paid advertisers and free listings and reserves the right to publish, or not publish, such listings to ensure the database is a comprehensive list of Australian businesses and services. To make the database as comprehensive as we can, it is not limited to businesses which have commercial arrangements with ALS. Particularly, a free listing for a business does not mean that the listed business has any commercial arrangement with ALS.
