Sarah Lynas & Confidence by Design ~ Terms & Conditions relating to Groups, Courses or Workshops
These Terms
These are the terms and conditions (“Terms”) on which I supply goods and services to you in the form of any group coaching programme, course or workshop, online or in person (“group”).
Please read these Terms carefully before you submit your order. These Terms tell you who I am, how I will provide products to you, how you and I may change or end our relationship, and other important information.
If you think there is a mistake in these Terms or require any changes, please contact me via email at sarah@sarahlynas.co.uk to discuss.
Information about me
I am Sarah Lynas, a sole trader also known as Confidence by Design. You can contact me via email at sarah@sarahlynas.co.uk or via post at Lane Ends, Clitheroe, BB7 5PH.
If I have to contact you, I will do so by writing to you at the email address you provide to me in your order.
My agreement with you
Our agreement as governed by these Terms comes into existence when I email you to accept your order.
If I am unable to accept your order, I will tell you of this in writing and will not charge you for the group. This might be because of unexpected limits on my resources which I could not reasonably plan for, or because I have identified an error in the price or description of the group.
My rights to make changes
I may change the group to:
-
reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; or
-
implement minor technical adjustments and improvements, for example to address a security threat.
These changes will not affect your experience of the group.
I may update the content of the group, provided that the content of the group will always match the description of it that I provided to you before you bought it.
Provision of the group programme, course or workshop:
I shall supply the group to you until either:
-
the group concludes on the date advertised; or
-
you end the agreement between us as described in Clause 6 below; or
-
I end the agreement between us by written notice to you as described in Clause 6 below.
If an event outside of my control results in a delay in my supply of aspects of the group, I will let you know as soon as possible via email and I will make an effort to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided I do this, I will not be liable for delays caused by the event. If there is a risk of a substantial delay, you may contact me to end the agreement between us and receive a refund for parts of the group programme you have paid for but not received.
You need to pay your fee in full to maintain access to any ongoing content (in one payment or three payments). If you do not pay me for the group when you are supposed to and you still do not make payment within seven (7) days of me reminding you that payment is due, I may suspend supply of the content until payment is received.
Cancellations and refunds
If you wish to cancel your place in the group for a reason set out in this clause, the agreement will end immediately and I will refund you in full for parts of the group you have paid for but not received. The reasons include:
-
I have told you about an error in the price or description of the group you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
-
there is a risk that supply of the group may be significantly delayed because of events outside my control;
-
I have suspended supply of the group for technical reasons, or notify you I are going to suspend it for technical reasons, in each case by a period of more than one (1) month;
-
you have a legal right to end the agreement because of something I have done wrong; or
-
I have decided, based on external factors and in my absolute discretion, to allow you to end the agreement between us.
Where you are entitled to a refund under clause 6.1, I will refund you by the method you used for payment as soon as possible (but not later than 14 days after I have agreed to the refund).
You do not have the right to change your mind or request a refund in respect of the group once you have started to download or stream content from it.
To end your agreement with us, please let me know by emailing me at sarah@sarahlynas.co.uk.
I may end the agreement at any time by writing to you if you do not make any payment to me when it is due, and you still do not make payment within seven (7) days of me reminding you that payment is due.

Your personal information
I will only use your personal information as set out in my Privacy Policy, available here on request.
Confidentiality
For the purposes of these Terms, confidential information means information provided or shared throughout the membership in written, graphic, recorded, machine readable or other form concerning business, clients, suppliers, financers, personal information, family information and other areas of the other party’s business, background or current situation (“Confidential information”).
You will not use or disclose to any person either during or at any time after your use of the membership any Confidential Information. This restriction does not apply to any disclosure that has been authorised by us or that is required by law.
Intellectual Property
All intellectual property rights in and arising from the group, its content and all related content are and remain my property. In relation to the group, its content and all related content, I do not allow copying, modifying, reproducing, publishing (or re-publishing), selling, distributing, or otherwise making available to anyone not a party to these Terms.
Disclaimer
You acknowledge and agree that I am not a licensed psychiatrist, psychologist, mental health professional or medical professional, and my services are not intended to replace those of such professions. During my creation of this group and in my delivery of it, I commit to using my best professional endeavours and skills, but I do not guarantee any specific outcome from your attendance in the group.
General Terms
I may transfer my rights and obligations under these Terms to another organisation. I will tell you in writing if this happens and will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the agreement between us.
You may only transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms to another person if I agree to this in writing in advance.
Nobody else has any rights under these Terms, except someone you pass your guarantee on to with our express permission under Clause 10.2. The agreement is between you and me, and no other person will have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
If a court finds part of these Terms illegal, the rest will continue in force.
Even if I delay in enforcing these Terms, I can still enforce it later. If I do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms, or if I delay in taking steps against you in respect of your violation of these Terms, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us from taking steps against you at a later date.
These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of these Terms in the English courts.
