consistent with best practices and standards in the industry, and in accordance with
any information provided by Us about the Services and about Us.
2. We will begin providing the Services on the date confirmed in Our Order Confirmation.
3. The Services cover only the period specified.
4. We will make every reasonable effort to deliver the Services on time (and in
accordance with your Order). We cannot, however, be held responsible for any delays
if an event outside of Our control occurs. Please see Clause 9 for events outside of Our
control.
5. If We require any information or action from you in order to provide the Services, we
will inform you of this as soon as is reasonably possible. Examples of what we may
require include: special needs related to our duty of care to you.
6. If the information or action required of you under sub-Clause 6.5 is delayed,
incomplete or otherwise incorrect, we will not be responsible for any delay caused as
a result. If additional work is required from Us to correct or compensate for a mistake
made as a result of incomplete or otherwise incorrect information or action on your
part, we may charge you a reasonable additional sum for that work.
7. In certain circumstances, for example where there is a delay in you sending Us
information or taking action required under sub-Clause 5.5, We may suspend the
Services (and will inform you of that suspension in writing).
8. In certain circumstances, for example where We encounter a technical problem, we
may need to suspend the Services in order to resolve the issue. Unless the issue is an

2. We will use reasonable efforts to remedy problems with the Services as quickly as is
reasonably possible and practical.
3. We will not charge you for remedying problems under this Clause 7 where the
problems have been caused by Us, any of our agents or employees or sub-contractors
or where nobody is at fault. If We determine that a problem has been caused by
incorrect or incomplete information or action provided or taken by you, sub-Clause
6.6 will apply and we may charge you for remedial work.
4. If you are deemed a Consumer (under legislation current at the time of booking), you
have certain legal rights with respect to the purchase of services. For full details of
your legal rights and guidance on exercising them, it is recommended that you contact
an appropriate advisor. If We do not perform the Services with reasonable skill and
care, you have the right to request repeat performance or, if that is not possible or
done within a reasonable time without inconvenience to you, you have the right to a
reduction in price. If the Services are not performed in line with information that We
have provided about them, you also have the right to request repeat performance or, if
that is not possible or done within a reasonable time without inconvenience to you (or
if Our breach concerns information about Us that does not relate to the performance
of the Services), you have the right to a reduction in price. If for any reason We are
required to repeat the Services in accordance with your legal rights, we will not charge
you for the same and We will bear any and all costs of such repeat performance. In
cases where a price reduction applies, this may be any sum up to the full Price and,
where you have already made payment(s) to Us, may result in a full or partial refund.
Any such refunds will be issued without undue delay (and in any event within 14
calendar days starting on the date on which We agree that you are entitled to the
refund) and made via the same payment method originally used by you unless you
request an alternative method. In addition to your legal rights relating directly to the
Services, you also have remedies if We use materials that are faulty or incorrectly
described.
1. We will be responsible for any foreseeable loss or damage that you may suffer as a
result of Our breach of these Terms and Conditions or as a result of Our negligence
(including that of Our employees, agents or sub-contractors). Loss or damage is
foreseeable if it is an obvious consequence of the breach or negligence or if it is
contemplated by you and Us when the Contract is created. We will not be responsible
for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable.
2. We provide Services for domestic and private use (or purposes). We make no
warranty or representation that the Services are fit for commercial, business or
industrial purposes of any kind [(including resale)]. By making your Order, you agree
that you will not use the Services for such purposes. We will not be liable to you for
any loss of profit, loss of business, interruption to business or for any loss of business
opportunity.

good that damage at no additional cost to you. We are not responsible for any pre-
existing faults or damage in or to your property that We may discover while providing
the Services.

or personal injury caused by Our negligence (including that of Our employees, agents
or sub-contractors); or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

to perform the Services with reasonable care and skill or in accordance with
