OUR AGREEMENT
These Terms supplement the agreement made between us when you purchased a Programme.
Your access to the Programme begins when payment is received and the Programme is officially started.
The agreement is between us and you. You may not share or transfer the Programme access or Materials with anyone else.
EXPECTATIONS
The Programme description and objectives can be found online. The Description is a general statement of the Programme content, intentions and objectives. We may vary the Programme content to respond to Participant feedback and such changes will not be a breach of our agreement with you.
The Programme is an online programme and would not normally involve in-person meetings unless specifically included in the Description.
The Programme is designed to help you do the work you need to achieve your goals. If you do not do the work or show up for any live sessions that may be included, or do any exercises or study required before or during the Programme, you will not achieve the Programme learning objectives.
The Programme is for informational purposes only. It does not and is not intended to provide specific medical, legal, commercial, financial, tax or other professional advice.
Group support is provided on the terms of the individual group rules which can be found in each group. The rules are provided in the group description and are accessible before you join.
If you are in breach of these Terms or the rules of the group, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your group support without compensation or a right to substitution, and without prejudice to other remedies we may have.
YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
If you are paying for yourself and not through an organisation or business, you may have statutory consumer and cancellation rights. But you do have to pay for the Programme once you have accessed it unless you are within a specified money back guarantee period as set out in the Description.
You are responsible for your own physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing, and for your decisions, choices, actions and results.
You agree to use good judgment and seek advice from suitably qualified professionals before taking action as a result of attending the Programme.
It is your responsibility to make sure that you have adequate computer equipment, broadband/wi-fi and time to access the Programme.
You must ensure that you have adequate virus and malware protection before accessing our systems.
You are responsible for keeping your log-in/links/access/downloads safe and secure.
You must not do anything to interfere with the running of our website(s) or platforms, not attempt to gain access to any parts of our site(s) to which you have not been granted access.
You will not seek to promote any goods/services to any Participant that you come into contact with during the Programme nor make contact with them unless they have expressly invited you to do so during shared sessions and they have shared their contact details with you.
BUSINESS CONTINUITY AND RESILIENCE
If the Programme has elements of live support, we reserve the right to substitute for the lead provider where necessary.
Associates and substitutes: We may use associates or substitutes to deliver parts of the Programme.
We may change the learning platform, server or other methods of accessing your Programme at our discretion.
TIMING AND STANDARD OF PROVISION OF SERVICES
Access to the Programme is for a specified period of time, as stated in the Description.
We reserve the right to cancel or reschedule any Session by providing you with written notice, by posting in the Programme notices environment, or by email, or by telephone, no less than 24 hours prior to the start of the Session.
You may not send a substitute to any Sessions. If you simply do not show up, the Session will be treated as lapsed without notice. The Programme may entitle you to view recordings of Sessions, which you may do until the expiry of the Programme.
We will normally be available for the time specified for a Session. We may not be able to accommodate staying later.
PAYMENTS
Programme charges are due to be paid at or before the start of the Programme. Unless staged payments or invoicing have been included in the Description, you will not be able to access your material until the appropriate payment has been received[AK1] .
If you have accessed Material, even by just logging in, this will have started your Programme so you will owe us the payment(s) in line with your original purchase[AK2] .
If the Programme provides for staged payments or deposits, late payment will result in access to the Programme being suspended.
Suspension from a Programme will not cancel the obligation to pay for the remainder of the Programme.
If you are paying in a different currency to the one we are selling in, your card provider or equivalent will apply their own exchange rates at the time of purchase. This will fluctuate and the exact amount you pay in your own currency is beyond our control.
If we offer a payment or instalment plan for the Programme, you are responsible for keeping a current credit card on file with us until your payment obligations have been met. If your card on file ever declines, you agree that on providing us with new credit card details we can charge the card for all overdue payments.
We reserve the right to charge interest on overdue amounts at the rate of 2.22% per month (equivalent to unauthorised overdraft rate from the bank). Your subsequent payments will be applied to interest and finance charges first, and then applied to fees/costs outstanding.
RIGHTS TO USE / COPYRIGHT
IP Rights in all Materials produced by us and/or presented in the Programme are and shall remain our absolute property.
You may use Materials only for your own participation in the Programme and for private use to support your learning from that Programme. You must not disclose or use the Materials without our permission for any other purpose.
Please be clear: you do not have the right to re-use or publish or adapt any part of any Materials, nor to disclose those Materials to anyone. If you want to do any of these things, you need our written consent before you do it.
If someone else is using your Programme access or Materials you will pay us an additional full Programme fee for each additional user regardless of how much of the Programme they have accessed. This does not mean we give you consent to do so, but is a notice of part of the costs you will bear if you do – you will also be liable for our investigation, legal and other costs, and other loss and damage we may lawfully claim from you.
Where the Programme involves you posting material or comments into a group environment, you must ensure that you are not breaching any third-party rights in your postings. You must not make any slanderous or defamatory statements, or bully or harass anyone or breach our Group rules. You cannot be “off the record” in any group sessions. You will indemnify us against all costs, expenses and damages we suffer if a claim is made against us arising from your breaches of this provision.
You may not photograph, screenshot, record, or video any Programme content unless this is agreed in writing in advance. If recording is agreed, the content delivered by us that is captured by you or on your behalf will remain our absolute copyright and your using it may be subject to a repeat fee or licence fee.
