yes pegger, notice my use of the quotation marks: centrifugal “force”.
nevertheless, because i am not speaking to a group of physicists it is perfectly acceptable to use the common term: centrifugal force, as it IS an “apparent’ or “virtual” force though not a force in the strict sense.
and yes you are always accelerating when moving in a circle. do you have an answer to the question: why is the centrifugal (if you prefer: centripital) force greater on the slowly moving mgr than on the rapidly moving earth?
