8. Termination and Refunds:

PLEASE NOTE:  Due to statutory regulations, a Purchase involves different situations (e.g. “distance selling”) regarding TERMINATION, which situations require different timescales.  In addition, as referred to above, there is a statutory difference between the rights of a “consumer” and a “business”.  What is stated in these General Ts&Cs regarding termination will apply to consumer clients of SDGE; the position of business clients regarding termination is regulated by what is stated in the Ts&Cs for a business-to-business relationship, such as in the Practitioner / Master Accreditation Programmes. 

 

( I )       Regarding TERMINATION (CANCELLATION) the following will apply to CONSUMER Clients:

 

8.1          Due to the different situations referred to in the immediately preceding clause, the following will apply to consumer clients of SDGE, as regards termination (cancellation): 

8.1.1       It is anticipated that in most cases the Agreement between Client and SDGE will not be agreed at a physical meeting between the Parties and not agreed in the premises of SDGE, in which case, Client may terminate their Service or Services with SDGE, by using one of the procedures shown below in clause 8.1.2 or 8.1.3 of this clause 8.1 (the procedure used being that which is relevant to the Client’s situation).

8.1.2:      IF the 14-day “cooling-off” period (i.e. 14 calendar days after the day on which the parties entered into the Agreement, which period allows consumers to change their mind) has ALREADY elapsed, written notice of at least 48 (forty-eight) hours must be sent either:

(a)   by email by Client, clearly giving termination notice in the appropriate form (an example of which is shown in clause 9.2 of these General Ts&Cs); or

(b)   by use of the part of the Website designed for such a purpose, Client may effect such termination by requesting that their account be closed.

Client’s request for termination in terms of this clause 8.1.2 of this clause 8 shall be effective as of either of the following: (i) 48 (forty-eight) hours of transmitting the request, or (ii) the date of termination specified in the request, whichever is the later.

8.1.3       IF the 14-day “cooling-off” period (i.e. 14 calendar days after the day on which the parties entered into the Agreement, which period allows consumers to change their mind) has NOT elapsed, then Client may terminate immediately, by sending written notice either:

(a)   by email by Client, clearly giving termination notice in the appropriate form (an example of which is shown in clause 9.2 of these General Ts&Cs); or

(b)   by use of the part of the Website designed for such a purpose, Client may effect such termination by requesting that their account be closed;

Client’s request for termination in terms of this clause 8.1.3 of this clause 8 shall be effective as of either of the following: (i) immediately upon transmission of the request, or (ii) the date of termination specified in the request, whichever is the later.

8.2          SDGE reserves the right to close Client’s account (without impacting on the other provisions of the Agreement), in the event that Client commits a breach, termination to become effective 5 (five) days after SDGE has emailed Client with a request that Client complies with these Ts&Cs, but Client has not so complied.

8.3          Termination by SDGE shall not prejudice SDGE’s right to damages that SDGE could claim from Client in the event that SDGE suffers harm as a result of Client’s breach.

8.4          In the event of a termination, SDGE will inform Client by email and all Client’s data will be deleted upon Client’s written request, or as prescribed by law.

8.5          This clause 8 does not apply to reimbursement, when Client’s right to cancel an order under clause 9, below is relevant and exercised.

 

 

 

 

 ( II )     Regarding REFUNDS, the following will apply to CONSUMER Clients:

 

PLEASE NOTE:  Due to statutory regulations, a Purchase involves different situations (e.g. “distance selling”) regarding REFUNDS, which situations require different timescales.  In addition, as referred to above, there is a statutory difference between the rights of a “consumer” and a “business”.  What is stated in these General Ts&Cs regarding refunds will apply to consumer clients of SDGE; the position of business clients regarding refunds is regulated by what is stated in the Ts&Cs for a business-to-business relationship, such as in the Practitioner Accreditation Programme (see Schedule C). 

 

8.6          It is anticipated that in most cases the Agreement between Client and SDGE will not be agreed at a physical meeting between the Parties and not agreed in the premises of SDGE; therefore, what is stated below in this clause 8 regarding refunds will apply in the event of: 

(i)  full termination of the Agreement; and

(ii)  mere cancellation of an appointment for a specific Service or Services (i.e. without full termination of the Agreement itself being desired by either party).

8.7          If Client terminates the Service or Services, SDGE would refund to Client any pre-paid fees for a scheduled appointment, provided always that Client has given proper notice in accordance with what is stated above in this clause 8 regarding termination (depending upon whether or not the 14-day “cooling-off” period applies to the particular Client).

8.8          If Client cancels a particular, scheduled appointment, SDGE would refund to Client any pre-paid fees, provided always that Client has given SDGE 48 hours’ notice in writing (depending upon whether or not the 14-day “cooling-off” period applies to the particular Client).

8.9          Where SDGE terminates or cancels either the Service or Services or a particular scheduled appointment, SDGE will refund to Client any pre-paid fees, subject to certain possible exceptions as in the case of a Break-up Recovery Retreat (Schedule B) when certain exclusions may apply, at the discretion of SDGE.

8.10        If SDGE has not had a consultation with Client and Client has paid SDGE’s fee, but Client wishes to withdraw within 14 (fourteen) days of the signature of SDGE’s Agreement, then Client will receive a full refund. 

8.11        If SDGE has not had a consultation with Client and Client has paid SDGE’s fee, but Client wishes to withdraw after 14 (fourteen) days of the signature of SDGE’s Agreement, then Client may receive a full or partial refund, though this would be entirely at the sole, unfettered discretion of SDGE who will review the matter on an individual basis, in the light of the particular circumstances and SDGE may also require a medical certificate in the cases of illness.

8.12        In respect of Online Accompanying Material, once a download of the Manual has commenced, no refund of the price to Client will be made, unless permitted by SDGE elsewhere in this Agreement.

8.13        If a consultation with SDGE has already taken place, there will be no refund to Client.

8.14        Without prejudice to Client’s statutory rights, SDGE would appreciate the courtesy of least 48 (forty-eight) hours’ notice of cancellation of a specific Service appointment before the time agreed for it.

8.15        As regards administration charges, in the event that certain types of Service have been booked and paid for (by way of example, but not necessarily exclusively) a Retreat, the booking can be changed or cancelled, but only by the Client’s sending to SDGE at least 30 (thirty) days’ notice in writing prior to the start of the Retreat session; an administration charge of £75.00 (seventy-five Pounds Sterling) will be made in the event of such a change or cancellation.

8.16        In addition to the provisions for refunds in these General Ts&Cs, Clients may be subject also to additional provisions regarding refunds stated in SDGE’s further, specific Ts&Cs for a particular Service or Services such as (by way of example, but not necessarily exclusively) Divorce Coaching (Schedule A) and Break-up Recovery Retreat (Schedule B).  

8.17        What is stated above in this clause 8 is subject to what is stated below in clause 9 of these General Ts&Cs regarding EU Clients.

8.18        In terms of the E-Commerce Regulations, SDGE requires Client to agree explicitly to what is stated above in this clause 8 and Client can demonstrate such agreement by signing the Ts&Cs at the end of this document (as set out in the General Ts&Cs, clause 17, covering “Electronic Signatures”).

 

 

( III )      Right of a CONSUMER CLIENT RESIDING ANYWHERE IN THE EU to CANCEL and be REFUNDED:

 

  Subject to what is stated below in THIS clause 8, section ( III ), this clause will apply to A CLIENT WHO:

  (a)  resides anywhere in the European Union (“EU”); and who also

  (b)  is a "consumer" (as above defined);

  and in relation to all such Consumer Clients residing anywhere in the EU, the following specific terms and conditions shall apply.

 

8.19        Relevant Client has the right to cancel their Agreement for the Services within the cancellation period being the period ending 14 (fourteen) calendar days after the day on which the parties entered into the Agreement (”Cancellation Period”).

8.20        Cancellation by relevant Client must be made clearly to SDGE; this can be done by emailing SDGE at [email protected] - stating as follows:      “I [NAME] wish to exercise my right under the UK’s Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Payments) Regulations 2013 to terminate our Agreement entered into on [DATE].”

 (N.B.: You may use this proposed form if you wish, but you do not have to use this exact wording, provided you make a clear statement of cancellation.)

8.21        Where Client cancels under this clause 8 section C provision, SDGE will reimburse Client for any payments received from Client; any reimbursement under this clause 9 shall be made to Client by the same means of payment Client used to make the payment.

8.22        Without prejudice to the generality of what is stated above in this clause 8 section C, Client understands and agrees that digital content cannot be made available to Client during the Cancellation Period unless Client has given their express consent to and has acknowledged waiver of their right to cancel under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Payments) Regulations 2013.  Client demonstrates their agreement to such waiver and accepts that such agreement constitutes Client’s express consent to and acknowledgment of waiver of their right so to cancel.  Strictly on that agreement and understanding, SDGE can provide the Services within the Cancellation Period.

 

9.  Regarding TerminAtion and Refunds, the following will apply to BUSINESS Clients:

 

9.1          The consumer rules and regulations do not apply to business Clients (e.g. Clients wishing to purchase the Sara Davison Break-Up and Divorce Coaching Practitioner Accreditation Programme); nevertheless, SDGE will extend the same cancellation and refund rights to business Clients as to consumer Clients, subject to what is stated below in sub-clause 9.2.

9.2          SDGE is extending to business Clients the consumer cancellation and refund rights (“Business Extension”, as an indication of SDGE’s good faith regarding all its Clients and as a sign of SDGE’s faith in its Products; however, in the (unlikely) event of a business Client’s breach of any of the Ts&Cs, SDGE reserves the right to retract, at its sole discretion, the Business Extension.

L-2.3     This Licence is personal to the Licensee and does not include any right for Licensee to assign or otherwise grant any sub-licence regarding the IPR. L-2.4    As a Licensee may reside anywhere in the world, it is a fundamental part of their acceptance of SDGE’s Ts&Cs that they agree that, to the extent that it is lawful, English law will govern all aspects of this Licence, as stated below in article L-12 of this Licence; in the event of Licensee’s refusal to accept the jurisdiction of English Law, Licensee must not proceed further with this Licence and thus must not proceed further with the Agreement of which this Licence forms part.  L-2.5    The territory (“Territory”) for which the Licence is granted is the country in which the Licensee normally resides according to English law.     L-3.       SDGE’s IPR. The following will apply to the IPR of SDGE and to aspects which are related to the IPR and which form a fundamental part of this Licence.   L-3.1    The following will apply to SDGE’s Copyright:- L-3.1.1 The copyright (“Copyright”) of SDGE (including, but not solely, its content and format) is protected by the laws of England governing copyright and is the exclusive property of SDGE.    L-3.1.2  SDGE’s Copyright includes (but not necessarily exclusively) the following: ·    SDGE’s Divorce Practitioners’ Manual; ·    SDGE’s Training Workbook; ·    SDGE’s Action Plan Workbook (containing SDGE’s layout); ·    SDGE’s Course Work Documentation; and ·    SDGE’s On-line Tuition Programme.

L-3.1.6.2 In the event of an actual / possible copyright infringement issue, the English courts generally apply at least the following “tests” to assess whether SDGE’s Copyright has been breached: (a) a consideration of whether any content of a potential infringer is substantially similar to SDGE’s Materials; and (b) in considering article L-3.1.6.2 (a) above, the English courts would decide on the basis of the “quality” of the content used by a potential infringer (rather than on the basis of the “quantity” of the content used by him / her - i.e. in their considerations, the English courts would not tend to focus on a basis of “percentage” of content used, in deciding upon infringement). L-3.1.7  Where Licensee makes a Permitted Use of the Copyright and / or Database Right of SDGE as referred to above in article L-3.1.5 of this Licence, it is on the strict understanding that such use is only to be made by Licensee (and by no third parties) and is only to be used in relation only to Licensee’s break-up and divorce practitioner practice and for no other purpose.       L-3.2    The following will apply to Passing-Off:- L-3.2.1  It is strictly prohibited for You to engage in any aspect of Passing-Off, by which You attempt to trade as SDGE and / or as Sara Davison, or to state or imply that You are professionally associated with SDGE and / or Sara Davison.   L-3.2.2  Any infringement of the prohibition stated above in article L-3.2.1 of this Licence shall result in immediate termination of this Licence.   L-3.3  The following with apply to Trade Mark:- L-3.3.1  Under this Licence, Licensor will license to Licensee, on a non-exclusive basis, the use of SDGE’s trade mark (“Trade Mark”) being the logo for an Accredited Sara Davison Break-Up and Divorce Coach Practitioner (“Logo”); the Logo must be used only in accordance with the instructions shown in Schedule D to this Agreement; obviously, the Logo to be used by the Accredited Participant would not be marked “copyright”.  L-3.3.2  Licensee may use SDGE’s Logo in Licensee’s business, provided always that Licensee adheres to the terms and conditions of this Licence L-3.3.3  Upon Licensor’s granting to Licensee his / her Accreditation, Licensor shall send to Licensee a good copy of SDGE’s Logo, for use by Licensee as agreed under this Licence.   L-4.    Consequences of unauthorised use of the IPR.           Any unauthorised use by Licensee of the IPR will result in either or both of:  (a) cancellation by Licensor of this Licence; and / or  (b) legal action being brought by Licensor.   L-5.    No Warranties /  No Liabilities / Liquidated Damages L-5.1  While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of SDGE’s Materials, neither SDGE nor Sara Davison will be held responsible for any errors or omissions in any of the said Materials, as explained further, below, in this article L-5 of this Licence.

L-2.4    As a Licensee may reside anywhere in the world, it is a fundamental part of their acceptance of SDGE’s Ts&Cs that they agree that, to the extent that it is lawful, English law will govern all aspects of this License, as stated below in article L-12 of this License; in the event of Licensee’s refusal to accept the jurisdiction of English Law, Licensee must not proceed further with this License and thus must not proceed further with the Agreement of which this License forms part.  L-2.5    The territory (“Territory”) for which the License is granted is the country in which the Licensee normally resides according to English law.   L-3.       SDGE’s IPR. The following will apply to the IPR of SDGE and to aspects which are related to the IPR and which form a fundamental part of this License.   L-3.1    The following will apply to SDGE’s Copyright:- L-3.1.1 The copyright (“Copyright”) of SDGE (including, but not solely, its content and format) is protected by the laws of England governing copyright and is the exclusive property of SDGE.   L-3.1.2  SDGE’s Copyright includes (but not necessarily exclusively) the following: ·    SDGE’s Master Practitioners’ Manual; ·    SDGE’s Training Workbook; ·    SDGE’s Course Work Documentation; and ·    SDGE’s On-line Tuition Programme. L-3.1.3  For the avoidance of doubt, Copyright relates not to an idea, but to the physical expression of an idea; thus (by way of example, but not necessarily exclusively) the physical expression by SDGE of the content of the Master Practitioner’s Manual is protected by Copyright and any infringement of such Copyright will be pursued vigorously by SDGE, to the full extent of the law. L-3.1.4  It should be noted particularly that in the absence of the Permitted Use (as “Permitted Use” is defined below in article L-6.1.5) the following will apply:  ·     Materials (as “Materials” are defined below in article L-3.1.5) may not be reproduced, in whole or in part; ·     No part of the Materials’ contents may be used by You for commercial or database purposes; ·     Materials may not be stored in any form (whether public or private directory or system); and ·     Materials may not be distributed, whether by paper, email, other electronic methods, or by any other means.  L-3.1.5  Without prejudice to what is stated above in articles L-3.1.3 and L-3.1.4 of this License, it is understood that Licensee may wish to use in their business (only) some of the content and format of SDGE’s materials protected by Copyright and Database Rights (“Materials”); therefore, SDGE agrees, on a non-exclusive basis, that Licensee may make a limited use of the materials (“Permitted Use”) subject always to what is stated, below, in article L-3.1.6 of this License. L-3.1.6  It is a strict provision of this License that the Permitted Use does not infringe SDGE’s Copyright, therefore the Licensee should note particularly the following:- L-3.1.6.1  SDGE pursues all actual and/or potential breaches of its Copyright with the full force of the law. L-3.1.6.2 In the event of an actual / possible copyright infringement issue, the English courts generally apply at least the following “tests” to assess whether SDGE’s Copyright has been breached: (a) a consideration of whether any content of a potential infringer is substantially similar to SDGE’s Materials; and (b) in considering article L-3.1.6.2 (a) above, the English courts would decide on the basis of the “quality” of the content used by a potential infringer (rather than on the basis of the “quantity” of the content used by him / her - i.e. in their considerations, the English courts would not tend to focus on a basis of “percentage” of content used, in deciding upon infringement). L-3.1.7  Where Licensee makes a Permitted Use of the Copyright and / or Database Right of SDGE as referred to above in article L-3.1.5 of this License, it is on the strict understanding that such use is only to be made by Licensee (and by no third parties) and is only to be used in relation only to Licensee’s break-up and divorce practitioner practice and for no other purpose.       L-3.2    The following will apply to Passing-Off:- L-3.2.1  It is strictly prohibited for You to engage in any aspect of Passing-Off, by which You attempt to trade as SDGE and / or as Sara Davison, or to state or imply that You are professionally associated with SDGE and / or Sara Davison.   L-3.2.2  Any infringement of the prohibition stated above in article L-3.2.1 of this License shall result in immediate termination of this License.   L-3.3  The following with apply to Trade Mark:- L-3.3.1  Under this License, Licensor will license to Licensee, on a non-exclusive basis, the use of SDGE’s trade mark (“Trade Mark”) being the logo for an Accredited Sara Davison Master Practitioner (“Logo”); the Logo must be used only in accordance with the instructions shown in Schedule E to this Agreement; obviously, the Logo to be used by the Accredited Participant would not be marked “copyright”.  L-3.3.2  Licensee may use SDGE’s Logo in Licensee’s business, provided always that Licensee adheres to the terms and conditions of this License, including payment of the License Fee. L-3.3.3  Upon Licensor’s granting to Licensee his / her Accreditation, Licensor shall send to Licensee a good copy of SDGE’s Logo, for use by Licensee as agreed under this License.   L-4.    Consequences of unauthorised use of the IPR.           Any unauthorised use by Licensee of the IPR will result in either or both of:  (a) cancellation by Licensor of this License; and / or  (b) legal action being brought by Licensor.   L-5.    No Warranties /  No Liabilities / Liquidated Damages L-5.1  While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of SDGE’s Materials, neither SDGE nor Sara Davison will be held responsible for any errors or omissions in any of the said Materials, as explained further, below, in this article L-5 of this License.

L-5.3  For the avoidance of doubt, SDGE makes no representations about and gives no warranties of any kind (express or implied) that the tuition given in the Programmes or other materials of SDGE will guarantee the results that the Licensee divorce practitioner seeks, because the abilities and efforts of the Licensee must always be a major, contributory factor towards his / her own success. L-5.4  Accordingly, Licensee UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES that neither SDGE nor Sara Davison shall have any liability under this Licence, whether regarding any part of the results achieved by the LICENSEE, oR otherwise. L-5.5  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Licence or in SDGE’s Ts&Cs affects SDGE’s liability for death or personal injury arising from its negligence, nor its liability for fraudulent misrepresentation, nor any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited under the law of England which regulates this Agreement. L-5.6    For the avoidance of doubt, all SDGE’s materials (whether delivered Face-To-Face, or via Online Video, or via Private Coaching) are supplied without any warranties at all, this disclaimer being a basic premise of this Agreement and use by Licensee of the said materials is only authorised by SDGE on the basis of this disclaimer.   L-6.    Price           The current fee for the Accreditation Programme (in whichever format received by Participant) will be shown on the Website, stating that taxes (as appropriate) will be included.   L-7.  License’s Specific Restrictions           Unless otherwise permitted by Licensor, in writing, in advance, Licensee may not engage in any of the following in relation to any part of the Master Practitioner Accreditation Programme: (i) copying (other than as permitted under article L-3.1.5 of this License); (ii) selling, lending, renting to third parties, sub-licensing, or otherwise transferring in any way the rights of Licensor in any of the materials comprising the Programme; (iii)  modifying or creating derivative works in the Programme’s subject matter (whether hard copy, or related to downloaded Online Accompanying Material); (iv) translating (or arranging to have translated) any part of the Programme;   (iv) removing or altering any copyright, logo, or other proprietary notices relating to the video materials; and / or (v) broadcasting, placing on social media, or permitting any third party to use any of the Programme’s materials (including video materials) in whole or in part, in any way.   L-8.     Acceptance of the terms of this License           By forming a contract with SDGE (or via the agents of SDGE) regarding the Agreement, of which this License forms part, Licensee acknowledges that he / she accepts all the Agreement’s Terms and Conditions, including the terms and conditions of this Licence.   L-9.    Governing law and jurisdiction L-9.1  As with the rest of the Agreement, of which this License forms part, this License is governed by English law and the parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of England.
