Terms of use

Hood Guide is a free guide to places in Accra and Tema. By using the site you agree to these terms and to our Privacy policy and Reviews policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

We work to keep listings correct, but opening hours, prices, phone numbers and locations can change without us knowing. Please confirm important details with the business before you travel. Reviews are the opinions of the people who wrote them, not ours. We don't sell anything on the site and we're not part of any deal between you and a business.

• Review only places you have actually visited, and be honest and respectful.
• Follow the Reviews policy: no rude words, personal details, links, spam or fake reviews.
• You keep ownership of what you write, but you allow Hood Guide to show, store and share it on the site (for example in search results and share previews), free of charge, for as long as it is on the site.
• We may hide, remove or refuse any review that breaks these rules, and limit how often reviews can be posted.

• Only send a listing for a real business, with correct details, and only if you are allowed to share them.
• Only add photos you took or have the right to use. You allow us to show them on the site.
• Listings are free. We may check, edit, refuse or remove any listing, and we may call the business to confirm it.
• Owners can ask us at any time to correct or remove their business.
• In My listings, the phone that sent a listing can update it and reply to reviews. Changes go live at once; we may check, change or undo them. Keep your phone safe: anyone using it can manage your listing.
• Replies to reviews must follow the same rules as reviews: polite, no phone numbers, links or personal details. Businesses can't remove reviews; report a review that breaks the rules instead.

• Posting false, misleading, unlawful, hateful or harmful content, or pretending to be someone else.
• Using bots, scripts or other automated ways to post, copy large parts of the site, or get around our limits.
• Trying to break into, overload or interfere with the site or the services it uses.

We may block access for anyone who breaks these rules.

The design, text, logo and the way places are organised on Hood Guide belong to us. You may share links and screenshots for personal use. Map data comes from OpenStreetMap contributors under its own licence.

Links to Google Maps, WhatsApp and business websites take you to services we don't control. Their own terms and privacy policies apply.

The site is provided free and "as is". We don't promise it will always be available or free of mistakes. As far as the law allows, we are not responsible for losses that come from using the site, from information or reviews on it, or from dealings with any business listed on it.

We may update these terms; the date at the top shows the latest version. These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Ghana. Questions: see About & contact.
