5. Appointments – things to note

5.1 We provide our Services on these Terms, and they form the contract between you and us. Our ‘Services’ comprise our provision of:

* Information about third party Therapists and the service/s they can provide.

* Booking functionality which allows you to book Appointments with the Therapists.

* A payment mechanism which enables us to take payment from you on behalf of the Therapist.

* Other services detailed in these Terms or as available on our Website, for example assistance in relation to complaints and concerns.

5.2 Should you choose to book an Appointment, the contract relating to the provision of services at the Appointment will be between you and the Therapist directly. This contract will incorporate the relevant provisions of these Terms (such as those relating to payment, cancellation and your obligations). By making an Appointment, you agree to be bound by the contract and to adhere to it. Please note this means:

* We shall have no liability to you in relation to the Appointment other than as set out in these Terms.

* We offer no warranty as to an Appointment or Therapist’s suitability for your exact requirements.

* Any concerns about the performance of a Therapist at an Appointment or any loss or damage relating to it should be dealt with between you and the Therapist.

5.3 Please also note the following in relation to our Therapists:

* Whilst we undertake checks and conduct interviews in order to select our Therapists, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of our screening processes.

* You acknowledge that you engage the Therapist at your own risk. You should exercise caution and take common sense precautions when dealing with a Therapist as you would when dealing with any other person who is not known to you.

5.4 All Appointments shown on our Website are subject to availability. The images and/or description of the Treatment Consultations are for illustrative purposes only and actual Treatment Consultations may differ from those images and/or descriptions. Whilst we endeavor to ensure that information provided to us by our Therapists and displayed on our Website is accurate, we cannot verify the information and make no representations regarding it. It is the responsibility of the Therapist to ensure that the Treatment Consultation is available and accurately described.

5.5 If you are a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Services that are faulty or not as described. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office. Nothing in these Terms will affect these legal rights.

6. Appointments – Booking and Payment

6.1 Our checkout pages will guide you through the steps you need to take to book an Appointment. Please take the time to read and check your order at each page of the order process. To summarise, the process for booking and paying for Appointments is as follows:

* You must first register an Account with us.

* Using this Account, you may place an order for an Appointment via our Website, email or by phone

* We shall collect payment information from you at the time or ordering or shortly thereafter (either via our Website or over the phone). Please see below for further information regarding payment.

* Once we have received your payment details we will send you a booking confirmation by email or other media (‘Confirmation Email’) which will include detailed instructions relating to the booking. This will also confirm the fee to be charged to you in connection with the Appointment (which includes VAT, if applicable) (the ‘Appointment Fee’). Once this is sent your booking will be confirmed and you will have entered a binding agreement to pay for the Appointment. Please check this Confirmation Email carefully and notify us promptly if it contains any errors.

* Payment of the Appointment Fee will be taken after the Appointment has been completed, or immediately if we are become entitled to take payment as specified elsewhere in these Terms e.g. if you cancel with 24 hours of your Appointment time.

6.2 If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and you will not be charged for the Appointment. This might be because the Appointment is no longer available or requires alteration or because we have identified an error in the price or description of the Appointment.

6.3 Please note the following regarding price and payment:

* We collect payment in our capacity as commercial agent for the relevant Therapist. Payment to us shall discharge your debt to the Therapist.

* We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Appointment advertised on our Website is correct but sometimes errors may occur and these may be changed from time to time. Please double check the Appointment Fee stated in the Confirmation Email and advise us as soon as possible if you believe it does not correspond with the fee stated on our Website prior to you placing your order.

* We accept payment with Visa, Mastercard, American Express. We may accept payment via other means – the latest methods of payment can be found on our Website. We do not store full credit or debit card details. Where we need to capture payment details as part of a checkout process they are passed to a PCI-DSS accredited payment service provider and then discarded. We use third party payment service providers to process payments and because there are many factors beyond our control (such as delays in the banking system or in card networks), we cannot predict or guarantee the amount of time needed to complete the processing of your payment.

* You confirm that the payment details you provide to us will remain valid up until 72 hours after your Appointment is completed and agree promptly to provide payment by alternative means in the event your payment cannot be processed.

* Expenses:

VAT @ 20% is inclusive for our BEAUTII At Home services.

VAT @ 20% is added to all our BEAUTII bridal, event and group services.

A 2.5% handling service fee will be added to the clients account for payments made by AMEX.

7. Appointments – Cancellation

7.1 Whilst our Therapists endeavour to ensure that Appointment times are adhered to, we and they reserve the right to cancel Appointments when it becomes necessary to do so. In the event of such cancellation, we will give you notice of cancellation via email.

7.2 If you cancel an Appointment, the following applies:

• If you cancel an Appointment within 15 minutes of the Confirmation Email being sent, and provided the Appointment is not due to commence within the next 48 hours, no Appointment Fee will be payable by you; OR
• If you cancel an Appointment more than 15 minutes after the Confirmation Email was sent, and provided the Appointment is not due to commence within the next 48 hours, no Appointment Fee will be payable by you; OR
• If you cancel an Appointment within 48 hours of the Appointment being due to commence, you will be charged the Appointment Fee in full.
• If you wish to amend your booking, we require a minimum of 48 hours’ notice.

8. Appointments – Complaints

8.1 If you have any dispute with a Therapist concerning them or the Appointment you will attempt to resolve it in the first instance by directly communicating with the Therapist during the Appointment. If you reach a settlement with the Therapist which involves a full or partial refund on the Appointment Fee then you will be required to inform us of this settlement within 24 hours. We will confirm this with the Therapist and provided it is agreed then we shall refund the agreed amount by your original payment method, provided such refund will under no circumstances exceed the Appointment fee.

8.2 If you are unable to resolve your complaint with the Therapist, or you have a complaint following the Appointment, you must inform us in writing within 24 hours after the Appointment. You must promptly provide us with information reasonably requested by us in order to investigate the complaint. We shall consider the complaint and inform you of the outcome of our investigation within 10 days of being notified of it.

9. Termination and Suspension

9.1 If we suspend your Account or access to the Website for any reason we may refuse to provide you with any Services including the right to make any further bookings.

9.2 We may terminate the contract and your Account at any time if:

10. Our Liability

10.1 If we are negligent in our performance of the Services or fail to comply with these Terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract between us was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

10.2 We do not accept any liability for the following types of loss, whether caused by breach of contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, even if the loss is foreseeable: loss of income or revenue; loss of business; loss of profits; loss of anticipated savings; loss of data; or waste of management or office time.

11. Other Important Terms

11.1 We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will contact you to let you know if we plan to do this.

11.3 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.

11.4 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.

11.5 These Terms contain the whole agreement between us and you and supersedes any previous terms or discussions between us.
