Business trading address
The address customers, suppliers and couriers use. It is not filed anywhere — it exists for commerce, not for compliance.
A trading address is what goes on invoices, on the website contact page, in the app store listing and on the bank mandate. It is not a statutory address, so nothing is published, but it does need to be an address that can take ordinary business post and parcels.

How the mail is handled
Post is logged the day it arrives, against a reference rather than a company name, so the log itself does not leak who is at the address. Envelopes stay sealed unless you have given written authority to open and scan them. You get the record, and you can export it.
If something arrives that suggests you need a different address — general business post to a registered office, for instance — we tell you rather than quietly absorbing it.
Address integrity
The number of companies at each address is capped, and we monitor the public register for companies that have used the address without arranging it. That happens more than people expect, and it is the reason a cheap address can become a liability.
Identity is verified before an address is activated, not after payment has cleared.
