1.2.1 my website terms of use and privacy policy;

If you want to see these specific terms, please visit the relevant webpage for the services description I have sent you in an email or request it from me.
All these documents form part of this contract as though set out in full here.
2 Information I give you
2.1 Certain sections of this contract only apply to you and me if you are a ‘consumer’, that is if you are an individual acting for purposes which are wholly or mainly outside your business or profession. By law, the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 say that I must give you certain key information before a legally binding contract of sale between you and me is made (see the summary box below). I shall give you this information in a clear and understandable way either in this contract or the relevant programme or service description.
I shall give you information on the main characteristics of the services you are buying, who I am, how you can contact me, the price of the services, the arrangements for payment, carrying out the services and the time by which I shall carry out the services, how to exercise your right to cancel the contract in the cooling off period if you are a consumer and any other relevant information. |
3 Signing up for my services
3.1 Below, I set out how a legally binding contract to buy services between you and me is made:
3.1.1 Your order is placed once you have received a price confirmation and a payment link from me and you have made the payment by any of the accepted methods, which are by transferring payment to my bank account or by paying using PayPal or Stripe.
3.1.2 Any price or quotation given by me before you place an order for services is not a legally binding offer by me to supply such services. Any prices set out in a quotation remain valid for 14 days.
3.1.3 When you decide to place an order for services with me, this is when you make a legal offer to buy such services from me.
3.1.4 I may contact you to say that I do not accept your order, for example if I do not think my services are right for you or there has been a mistake in the pricing or description of the services, or my circumstances have changed since I gave you the quotation for the services.
3.1.5 I shall only accept your order when I confirm this to you by sending you a confirmation email or start to provide the services, whichever happens earlier. At this point:
- a) a legally binding contract will be in place between you and me, and
- b) I shall start to carry out the services as set out in the relevant programme or services description.
4 Carrying out the services
4.1 If you are a consumer you have protection under consumer rights legislation, including that the services must be carried out with reasonable care and skill.
4.2 I shall carry out the services within the time period which is set out in the relevant services description.
4.3 All sessions (including rearranged sessions) must be taken within the timeframe specified in the relevant services description or they will expire.
4.4 You can rearrange any sessions providing you give me at least 48 hours’ notice. If you give me less than 48 hours’ notice, fail to turn up to a session or have already rearranged 2 sessions, you will be deemed to have taken the session and you will not be able to reschedule it or entitled to any compensation for missing it.
4.5 Please note that if you arrive late to the session, the session still may have to end at the original time, or it may not be possible to be held. In this case, depending on the circumstances, it will be at my discretion whether the session can be rearranged or considered as taken.
4.5 Sessions usually take place remotely via Zoom, WhatsApp or any other means of communication agreed with you in advance. There may be an additional charge for face to face meetings.
Please note that I may record our calls for training and administration purposes, and also to provide you with a copy of it, in case you require it. By entering into this contract with me you consent to the recording of our calls for these purposes.
4.6 My services might be affected by events beyond my reasonable control. If so, there might be a delay before I can restart the services. I shall make reasonable efforts to limit the effect of any of those events, I shall keep you informed of the circumstances and I shall try to restart the services as soon as those events have been fixed. Examples of events which might be beyond my reasonable control include illness, pandemics, epidemics, IT issues and problems with internet connectivity, or if you change the services you require from me and I have to do extra preparation.
5 Your responsibilities

6.2 The price for the services is set out in the relevant services description. However, this will be confirmed to you, along the payment link.
6.3 I require full payment in advance for my services.
6.4 The fees are non-refundable except for:

- b) For services such as Soul Plan, Numerology, Year Planning or Tantric Numerology, when I have started working on the preliminary report;
