Where we do so, you undertake to keep the user name and password safe and confidential, and they must not be disclosed to any other person.

9. Consumer Cancellation Rights

9.1 If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to cancel a Contract during the period set out below in Clause 9.2. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or for any other reason you decide you do not want to receive or keep the Content, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund. 

9.2 Your legal right to cancel a Contract starts from the date of the Order Confirmation, which is when the Contract between us is formed. Your deadline for cancelling the Contract then depends on what you have ordered and how it is provided.

9.3 For Content that is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. downloadable or streamed Content), you have 14 days from the date of the Order Confirmation. However, once you begin downloading or streaming the Content with your consent, you will lose your right to cancel.

9.4 To cancel a Contract, you must contact us at hello@drclaudiahallett.co.uk

9.5 If you cancel your Contract and you have already paid for the Content, we will refund you the full amount as soon as possible and in any event within 14 calendar days of the day on which we receive notice of your cancellation. We will refund you using the same payment method you used when purchasing the Content.

9.6 If you have downloaded or streamed any Content before you cancel, you must delete all copies of the Content in your possession or control, and must not retain, continue to use or distribute any copy of that Content.

 

9.7 Refunds and loss of your right to cancel. When you purchase Content that is supplied to you immediately (for example, where you begin downloading or streaming the Content before the end of the 14-day cancellation period), you will be asked, before completing your purchase, to: (a) give your express consent to the Content being made available to you immediately; and (b) acknowledge that, once supply of the Content begins, you will lose your legal right to cancel the Contract under Clause 9. Where you have given that consent and acknowledgement, and supply of the Content has begun, you will no longer be entitled to cancel the Contract or to receive a refund under Clause 9. We will confirm your consent and acknowledgement to you by email in your Order Confirmation.

 

9.8 Nothing in Clause 9.7 affects your legal rights as a consumer. We are under a legal duty to supply Content that is of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described. If any Content is faulty, does not function as it should, or is not as described, you may be entitled to a repair or replacement and, in certain circumstances, to a price reduction or a refund.
