Availability and responding to messages
We will update and monitor our website and social media accounts during office hours, 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday. Occasionally we may also post scheduled updates at evenings and weekends.

Linking to other websites
On the Clear on Plastics website and social media accounts, we may include links to other organisations and individuals.
We follow certain guidelines when deciding which links to share.
- We may link to organisations and individuals who are actively involved in reducing the impact of plastic on the environment and support our aims to help consumers in the UK have access to clearer information on plastics.
- We will not share links where the main purpose is to promote or endorse commercial activity.
- Where possible, we provide several examples of organisations that can help, to provide choice.
- We reserve the right to decide not to link to other organisations. In most cases, we are unable to enter into discussions about why a link request has been refused.
