Summary of your key legal rights
This is a summary of your key legal rights. These are subject to certain exceptions. For detailed information please visit
the Citizens Advice website www.adviceguide.org.uk or call 03454 04 05 06.
As we are providing services, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 says:
you can ask us to repeat or fix a service if it’s not carried out with reasonable care and skill, or get some money back if
we can’t fix it.
if you haven’t agreed a price upfront, what you’re asked to pay must be reasonable.
if you haven’t agreed a time upfront, it must be carried out within a reasonable time.
11. Price and payment
11.1. Where to find the price for the Course. The price of the Course (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated
on the application pages when you submit your application. We use all reasonable efforts to ensure that the price of the
Course advised to you is correct. However please see clause 11.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price
of the Course you applied for.
11.2. We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your application date and the
date we start to supply the Course, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the
product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
11.3. What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the
products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your application so that,
where the correct price at your application date is less than our stated price at your application date, we will charge the
lower amount. If the correct price at your application date is higher than the price stated, we will contact you for your
instructions before we accept your application. If we accept and process your application where a pricing error is obvious
and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract and,
refund you any sums you have paid.
11.3.1. When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with credit and debit cards. You must pay for
the Course in advance.
12. Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
12.1. We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these
terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our
failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss
or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and
you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
12.2. We are not liable for business losses. If you use the Course for any commercial or business purpose we will
have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
12.3. We do not guarantee any result or outcome. The Course is for education purposes only, intended to be
informative rather than instructional. We do not accept any responsibility to you or any other party for the use of the
information provided and/or the Digital Content and/or the Course materials for any purpose other than for educational
purposes, and we do not promise that attending the Course will lead to any particular result or outcome.
13. How we may use your personal information
13.1. How we will use your personal information. We will use the personal information you provide to us:
13.1.1. to supply the Course to you;
13.1.2. to process your payment for the products; and
13.1.3. if you agreed to this during the application process, to inform you about similar courses or products that we
provide, but you may stop receiving these at any time by contacting us.
13.2. We will only give your personal information to third parties where the law either requires or allows us to do
so.
14. Other important terms
14.1. We may transfer this agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms
to another organisation.
14.2. You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else. You may only transfer your rights or your
obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing.
14.3. Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall
have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
14.4. If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms
operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs
will remain in full force and effect.
14.5. Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you
do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your
breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps
against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the
products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
14.6. Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by
English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts. If you live in Scotland
you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in
Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Northern Irish or the English
courts.
