These Terms of Use and the attachment below do not apply to customers purchasing Subscriptions and accessing Paid Content in the course of any business trade, craft or profession carried on by either them or any other person/organisation.

 

6. SUBSCRIPTIONS, PAID CONTENT, PRICING AND AVAILABILITY

  • We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all descriptions of Subscriptions and Paid Content available from Us correspond to the actual Subscription and Paid Content that You will receive.
  • We may from time to time change Our prices. Changes in price will not affect any Subscription that You have already purchased but will apply to any subsequent renewal or new Subscription. We will inform You of any change in price at least 14 days before the change is due to take effect. If You do not agree to such a change, You may cancel the Contract as described in sub-Clause 13.1.
  • In some cases, as described in the relevant content descriptions, We may also make more significant changes to the Paid Content. If We do so, We will inform You at least 14 days before the changes are due to take effect. If You do not agree to the changes, You may cancel the Contract as described in sub-Clause 13.1.
  • Where any updates are made to Paid Content, that Paid Content will continue to match Our description of it as provided to You before You purchased Your Subscription to access the Paid Content. Please note that this does not prevent Us from enhancing the Paid Content, thereby going beyond the original description.
  • We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all prices shown on Our Site are correct at the time of going online. Changes in price will not affect any order for a Subscription that You have already placed (please note sub-Clause 6.11 regarding VAT, however).
  • If We discover an error in the price or description of Your Subscription after Your order is processed, We will inform You immediately and make all reasonable efforts to correct the error. You may, however, have the right to cancel the Contract if this happens. If We inform You of such an error and You do wish to cancel the Contract, please refer to sub-Clause 13.4.
  • If the price of a Subscription that You have ordered changes between Your order being placed and Us processing that order and taking payment, You will be charged the price shown on Our Site at the time of placing Your order.
  • Eligibility for any promotions or discounts apply at the time of purchase of any Subscription and cannot be changed during the term of your Subscription. You are responsible for reading and understanding the specific terms and conditions applicable to any promotions or discounts.
  • All prices on Our Site do not include VAT, as we are not VAT registered, and so VAT is not applicable. If our VAT status changes between Your order being placed and Us taking payment, the amount of VAT payable will be automatically adjusted when taking payment.

 

6.10 Free Trials: At Our discretion, We may provide a free trial subscription for a fixed period of time of 21 days. Unless otherwise stated, such free trials are only available to new users and We reserve the right to cancel any free trial subscription if We become aware that the subscriber has already had a free trial subscription (under a different account name). Any attempt to register for a further free trail may result in You being charged for the applicable Subscription fee. Upon the expiry of a free trial subscription, the Subscription will automatically renew at the full Subscription price unless You cancel your Subscription before the end of the free trial period (see clause 6.11 for procedure).

6.11 Automatic Renewal of Subscription: Your subscription will automatically renew unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period.

7. ORDERS – HOW CONTRACTS ARE FORMED

  • Our Site will guide You through the process of setting up an Account and purchasing a Subscription. (Please also see the attachment below as to setting up an Account.) Before completing Your purchase of a Subscription, You will be given the opportunity to review Your order for the Subscription and amend it. Please ensure that You have checked Your order carefully before submitting it.
  • If, during the order process, You provide Us with incorrect or incomplete information, please contact Us as soon as possible. If We are unable to process Your order due to incorrect or incomplete information, We will contact You to ask to correct it. If You do not give Us the accurate or complete information within a reasonable time of Our request, We will cancel Your order and treat the Contract as being at an end. We will not be responsible for any delay in the availability of Paid Content that results from You providing incorrect or incomplete information.
  • No part of Our Site constitutes a contractual offer capable of acceptance. Your order to purchase a Subscription constitutes a contractual offer that We may, at Our sole discretion, accept. Our acknowledgement of receipt of Your order does not mean that We have accepted it. Our acceptance is indicated by Us sending You a Subscription Confirmation by email. Only once We have sent You a Subscription Confirmation will there be a legally binding Contract between Us and You.
  • Subscription Confirmations shall contain the following information:
    • Your Subscription ID;
    • Confirmation of the Subscription ordered including full details of the main characteristics of the Subscription and Paid Content available as part of it;
    • Fully itemised pricing for Your Subscription including, where appropriate, taxes, and other additional charges;
    • The duration of Your Subscription (including the start date, and the expiry or renewal date);
    • Confirmation of Your acknowledgement that the Paid Content will be made available to You immediately and that You will lose Your legal right to change Your mind and cancel upon accessing the Paid Content as detailed below in sub-Clause 12.1;
    • In relation to any video (live or recorded) event, item, series, collection or type/s of events or items or Background Items constituting the Paid Content, the time/date when or period during which it can be accessed.
  • In the unlikely event that We do not accept or cannot fulfil Your order for any reason, We will explain why in writing. No payment will be taken under normal circumstances. If We have taken payment any such sums will be refunded to You as soon as possible and in any event within 14 calendar days.
  • Any refunds under this Clause 7 will be issued to You as soon as possible, and in any event within 14 calendar days of the day on which the event triggering the refund occurs.
  • Refunds under this Clause 7 will be made using the same payment method that You used when purchasing Your Subscription.

 

8. PAYMENT FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS

  • Payment for each Subscription must always be made in advance in full. Your chosen payment method will be charged when We process Your order and send You a Subscription Confirmation (this usually occurs immediately and You will be shown a message confirming Your payment).
  • We accept the following methods of payment on Our Site:
    • Debit or credit card;
    • PayPal payment;
    • Stripe payment.
  • We also accept payment for Subscriptions via your account with the applicable App Store that offers our Subscription.

If You do not make payment within 7 calendar days of Our reminder, We may cancel the Contract. Any outstanding sums due to Us will remain due and payable.

9. PROVISION OF PAID CONTENT

  • We undertake to make available to You on these Terms of Use the Paid Content for which You subscribe but if You choose not to access or make any permitted use of some or all of that Paid Content or, for any reason not attributable to Us You are unable to do so, You will not be entitled to any refund.
  • All Paid Content within the scope of Your Subscription will be available to You in accordance with sub-Clause 7.4.6 from when We send You a Subscription Confirmation for the duration of Your Subscription, including any renewals, or until You end the Contract, on and subject to the following:

9.2.2 If an item of Paid Content is a livestream item, We will use all reasonable endeavours to make it available and start it at the time it Is scheduled to start, but the start may be delayed either by overrun of a previous livestream item (such being made available to You and/or to others by Us) or by other circumstances. Any such delay will not normally exceed 15 minutes but if the start is delayed by more than that period then We will reschedule the session.

9.3 When You place an order for a Subscription, You will be required to expressly acknowledge that You wish Paid Content to be made available to You immediately. You will also be required to expressly acknowledge that by accessing (e.g. downloading or streaming) any Paid Content, You will lose Your legal right to cancel if You change Your mind (the “cooling-off period”). Please see sub-Clause 12.1 for more information.

9.5 If We need to suspend availability of the Paid Content for any of the reasons set out in sub-Clause 9.4, We will inform You in advance of the suspension and explain why it is necessary (unless We need to suspend availability for urgent or emergency reasons such as a dangerous problem with the Paid Content, in which case We will inform You as soon as reasonably possible after suspension). If the suspension lasts (or We tell You that it is going to last) for more than 7 days, You may end the Contract as described below in sub-Clause 13.2.

9.6 We may suspend provision of the Paid Content as follows if We do not receive payment on time from You. We will inform You of the non-payment on the due date, however if You do not make payment within 48 hours of Our notice, We may suspend provision of the Paid Content until We have received all outstanding sums due from You. If We do suspend provision of the Paid Content, We will inform You of the suspension. You will not be charged for any Paid Content while provision is suspended.

9.7 Any refunds under this Clause 9 will be issued to You as soon as possible, and in any event within 14 calendar days of the day on which the event triggering the refund occurs.

9.8 Refunds under this Clause 9 will be made using the same payment method that You used when purchasing Your Subscription.

However, We may, if You request it, either before or during any session of Instruction, and without charge, offer suggestions in good faith to resolve any problem with that technology that You report, but it will not be in the nature of advice. We do not therefore take on any responsibility or accept any liability if any such suggestion does not help You to resolve any problem or if by following any such suggestion You experience any other problem, loss or damage to any technology or other thing except if Your Device or Your content is damaged in circumstances where We are liable to You under sub-Clause 14.3.

  • The space You use should be free of others and it should be difficult to see or hear via the Zoom or any applicable approved cloud based web conferencing platform App and Your Device any interactions between people who are in or near that space and its surroundings. For example, You might decide to use a private room and/or wear headphones;
  • There are potential risks in transmitting information over technology that include, but are not limited to, breaches of confidentiality and the theft of personal information;
  • We cannot ensure privacy or confidentiality due to the nature of two way sessions involving customers in addition to You; and

We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from Your failure to comply with the above requirements.

You acknowledge and agree that:
