Account Integrity
As part of the registration process, you will need to create an account, including a username & password. It is your responsibility to ensure that the information you provide is accurate and not misleading. You cannot create an account or username & password using the names and information of another person or using words that are the trademarks or the property of another party or vulgar, obscene, or in any other way inappropriate.
You are responsible for maintaining your own username and password via our website. You should ensure that you store your username and password securely and that the details required to access your customer account are not provided to another party.
You are responsible for your customer account and any actions taken within it. If you are aware or suspect that your customer account username and password or other details have become known to a third party, you should inform us immediately.
Your Order
When you place an order, you will automatically receive a confirmation email from us to confirm your order. Your order constitutes an offer made to us to purchase a product or service.
Your offer is only accepted by us once we have emailed you to confirm your account's creation and username & password details, and the product or service has been provided to you.
We reserve the right to delay or refuse orders where a transaction contains incomplete details or details that cannot be verified or where fraud is suspected.
If we are unable to ascertain these details reasonably or resolve these issues, a full refund will be made against the card used at the time of purchase. No other form of refund or credit will be offered, nor will a refund be made to any third party card or account.

After satisfactory payment of the subscription fees and supply by us of your username & password, you will have access to the website and have lifetime access to your chosen course.
For monthly subscription courses, the first payment will be deducted on registering for the course, and future monthly payments will be deducted on the same date every month until the subscription period ends. To avoid any disruption of service, your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each subscription period.

Where we are unable to renew your subscription, we will automatically suspend your account, you will lose access to all previously studied modules, and notify you via email and allow you to update your payment details. Please note in this instance, you may lose any previous discount or special offer related to your previous subscription.
