legal identity stated plainly
The legal minimum is not optional.
Company number, registered office, jurisdiction, Ltd status — without authentication.
UK guidance is unambiguous: limited-company websites should show the company number, registered office address, place of registration, and the fact that it is a limited company. This page exists so those details are available without a login, in plain language, and on the public record. Public on the surface; counsel-led on the substance.
The record, scannable before the detail.

Seven rows. Each one matches Companies House. If a row stops being true, the public register updates and so does this page — in that order.
The legal minimum is not optional.
UK guidance states that limited-company websites should show the company number, registered office address, place of registration, and the fact that it is a limited company. This page exists so those details are available without authentication.
Company no. shown
Company number 16988667 is shown in the header, footer and in the company-record schedule above. One value, three locations — on purpose.
Registered office shown
The Companies House registered office address is shown in full on Sheet 02 row 02.7. Service of formal notices follows that address.
Registration stated
“England and Wales” is stated explicitly as the place of registration. UK company law applies; operating-entity jurisdiction is separate.
Ltd status visible
The full company name includes “Ltd”, identifying the limited-company status as required by Companies Act 2006 section 58.
A legal page should define the edge.
The same wall that runs through the home page runs through this notice. BlackMenta Ltd is the IP holding entity. Anything that operates, sells, regulates, advises, contracts or pools customer money happens elsewhere — under different documents, different counsel and a different jurisdictional analysis.
The marks live here; licence does not.
The holding company holds marks. Visitors gain visibility, not licence. Three statements set the IP boundary so that good-faith reuse and bad-faith imitation are easy to tell apart.
Marks and trade dress
BlackMenta names, marks, logos, interface language, drawing-system style and associated trade dress are owned, claimed or controlled by BlackMenta Ltd unless stated otherwise.
Filings may be gated
Trademark filing details may be public, pending or disclosed progressively to reviewers depending on jurisdiction, filing stage and counsel route. Absence on this page is not absence on the register.
No implied permission
Use of this website does not grant a licence to copy, reuse, modify, register, imitate or commercially exploit any BlackMenta mark or material. Editorial reference is fine; commercial reuse needs counsel.
Email is a route; not always service.
Routing helps; service requires more. The single-paragraph callout below makes the distinction visible so neither side spends time on a procedural argument.
Address · copy · confirmation
Email routing helps the company triage and respond, but email alone should not be assumed to constitute valid service of legal proceedings unless BlackMenta Ltd expressly confirms that method for the specific matter or applicable law provides otherwise.
- Address: 2nd Floor College House, 17 King Edwards Road, Ruislip, London, HA4 7AE.
- Copy: legal@blackmenta.com with a clear subject line and the matter reference.
- Confirmation: email service is by agreement; ask before assuming.
Public now, reviewed later.
Drafts get dated. Reviews leave fingerprints. The block below states the current revision so that anyone who quotes this page can see exactly which version they referenced.
Public draft for website use
This page is a public legal-disclosure draft for website use. It will be reviewed by qualified UK counsel before publication as final legal text. The wording can change; the boundary cannot.
Counsel review pending
Final wording is reviewed against UK Companies Act 2006 disclosure rules, financial-promotion guidance, and the holding/operator boundary stated on this page.
Material changes are dated
Material updates increment the revision and update the date in this sheet’s spec. Cosmetic edits do not. Anyone quoting this page should cite the revision letter.
Corrections welcomed
If a sentence here misstates fact or law, send the correction to legal@blackmenta.com. Correction beats posture; the page updates within five business days.
Counsel-side detail is gated.
This page is the public legal record. Officer trace, named counsel firms, full filings, IP register details and operating-entity documentation are released through auth.blackmenta.com — to verified counsel and reviewers under formal review.
