Terms & Conditions for our Digital Products

The following terms and conditions (the “DP Terms & Conditions”) are entered into between you (referred to as “you” or “your”) and On Your Own Terms (referred to as “On Your Own Terms”“we”“our”, or “us”).

 

The Digital Product

 

We provide various e-learning courses, educational resources, and individual business/legal document templates which help entrepreneurs legally protect their businesses, any one of which is a “Digital Product”.

 

For the purpose of these DP Terms & Conditions, the Template Toolbox membership is NOT a digital product. Please see the Template Toolbox Terms & Conditions instead.

 

As a condition of purchasing and using the Digital Product, you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions.

 

Other legal terms that apply to your purchase

 

In addition to the DP Terms & Conditions on this page, you must also respect our other legal terms (including the Website Terms of Use, Refund Policy, and Privacy Policy).

 

Unless these SP Terms & Conditions state otherwise, each of our other agreements and policies shall apply fully to your purchase and use of the Digital Product.

 

If there is any inconsistency between any of those agreements and/or policies and these DP Terms & Conditions, these DP Terms & Conditions will take precedence.

 

For example, if our general refund policy is a certain number of days, and you see a different number of days in the refund policy in these DP Terms & Conditions, you can be sure that the refund policy you see here applies to your Digital Product purchase.

 

 

Our Relationship With You

 

When you purchase a Digital Product, we agree to provide you with access to the Digital Product, which is an educational and informational resource.

 

The information contained in the Digital Product, including any interactions with the instructors, is not intended as, and shall not be understood or construed as, professional or legal advice.

 

Nothing in these DP Terms & Conditions forms any partnership, joint venture, employment, or agency relationship between you and us.

 

We are a digital product provider, and you choose to use our Digital Product.

 

Payment Required for Access

 

By purchasing the Digital Product, you understand and acknowledge that you are entering into a legally binding contract with On Your Own Terms, which requires you to pay the fees in full in exchange for access to the Digital Product.

 

You will only be entitled to use the Digital Product when we receive full payment of the fee in its entirety, or if you have opted into a payment plan or are purchasing a membership/subscription product, upon receipt of the first instalment of the selected payment plan.

 

Due to the nature of online payments, your payment may appear as “pending” or a similar status for several days. As a gesture of good faith, we provide access immediately when you make a payment, but if the payment then fails, we may revoke your access immediately without notifying you.

 

Payment Authorisation

 

By making a payment online with your credit or debit card, you give us permission to automatically charge your payment method for the amounts specified on the Digital Product purchasing page.

 

You also give us permission to share your payment information and instructions required to complete any and all payments in the transaction with its third-party payment providers.

 

By electing to pay for the Digital Product through a payment plan or if you are purchasing a subscription-based Digital Product which requires recurring payments:

 

    1. you authorize us to charge your payment method automatically for each payment in the subsequent payment without further authorisation or notice to you (unless required by law).
    2. it is your responsibility to ensure that the payment method we have on file for you is valid for the duration of the payments you have committed to in the payment plan and/or any subscription you wish to maintain . If your payment method becomes invalid before completing all payments in the payment plan, you must notify us before your next payment is due by writing to us at [email protected].
    3. in the case of a payment plan, you understand that you are required by law to complete all remaining payments of your payment plan unless you have correctly requested a refund in accordance with the refund policy in these DP Terms & Conditions, and your refund request has been verified as valid.

 

In summary, you commit to paying in full for your purchase, and if you choose a payment plan, you may not cancel or avoid any of the payments in a payment plan except by correctly using our refund policy.

 

Consequences of Failed Payments

 

If any payment fails or is not made by the due date, your access to the Digital Product and any associated Online Community will be immediately suspended, and any rights or licenses to use the Digital Product and related materials will terminate as of the date of non-payment.

 

The first time a payment fails or the payment deadline is missed, if you subsequently make the payment that was due, your access will be restored.

 

If there is any subsequent failed or missed payment, the total remaining balance on your payment plan will become due in order to restore access, regardless of how many payment instalments remain. Your access will be restored once you have paid in full.

 

We reserve the right to charge an additional fee for dealing with repeated missed or failed payments. This fee will be a reasonable amount to compensate us for the additional administrative burden directly related to your failed or missed payments.

 

By agreeing to these DP Terms & Conditions, you acknowledge that these are fair and reasonable consequences for failed and/or missed payments.

 

Refund Policy

 

We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. For this reason, we offer a 30 days “Any Reason” refund policy.

 

If you are not satisfied with your purchase and would like to request a refund, you can email us at [email protected] to request a refund within 30 days of the date of your purchase. If your refund request meets our policy's requirements, we will issue your refund as soon as possible.

 

Our refund policy is in addition to any legal rights you have, and it in no way replaces those rights.

 

If you believe that a law in your geographic area entitles you to a refund outside of what is permitted by this policy, please contact us at [email protected]. We will verify our legal obligations, and if required, we will provide you with a refund.

 

Note: if you request a refund, we make it as if you’ve never purchased the Digital Product at all – so you cannot use any content you've consumed or downloaded because it should be as if you never had them in the first place.

 

What Is Included With Your Digital Product Purchase

 

As part of the Digital Product, we will provide the following:

 

Access to the Digital Product

 

You will receive an email with instructions on how to access the Digital Product shortly after your purchase.

 

We will maintain access to the Digital Product via a digital platform, and your login details will be provided in the instructions email (the “Platform”).

 

You will have access to the Digital Product from the date of your purchase (the “Start Date”).

 

Your purchase of the Digital Product comes with access for a set time period, which is the time period specified on purchasing page at the time of your purchase.

 

If a Digital Product indicates “lifetime access” this means you have access for the lifetime of the product (meaning as long as it is made available by us) and not for your lifetime or the lifetime of our business. If we ever decide to unpublish a “lifetime access” Digital Product, we will let you know at least 30 days in advance.

 

Access To Online Community

 

We will maintain an online community that you will optionally have access to as a customer of the Digital Product (the “Online Community”). This Online Community will be available to you from the Start Date.

 

The Online Community provides a forum for you to connect with other Digital Product customers and to seek guidance and support. Our staff will seek to interact with Digital Product participants in the group, but we do not make any guarantees about participation by our staff or other members. You are required to abide by any and all rules posted in that Online Community. If you fail to abide by those rules, you will forfeit your right to participate in the Online Community. If you lose your right to participate in the Online Community as a result of rules violation, you will not receive any discount or refund.

 

Bonuses

 

From time to time, we will offer bonuses to customers who purchase a Digital Product. You shall be entitled to any bonuses offered to you at the time of your purchase. The details of any bonuses as well as any specific requirements or conditions of use will be made clear to you on the purchase page.

Your purchase and use of the Digital Product does not result in a transfer of any intellectual property to you. As a condition of your use of the Digital Product, you agree to observe and abide by all copyright and other intellectual property laws.

 

You cannot use, copy, modify, adapt, reproduce, store, distribute, print, display, perform, or publish any of our intellectual property except as specifically allowed by these DP Terms & Conditions or with specific written consent from us in advance.

You are granted a single-use, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Digital Product, including all content and resources contained within the Digital Product for your own business’s use to achieve the outcomes set out on the Digital Product’s purchasing page (the “Purpose”).

We understand that running a small business is often done in partnerships and families, and we want to support that. Therefore, you may share your license with your business partner(s) provided that the business has no more than 5 total people working in it (including owners/partners, employees & contractors). However, if the business is larger than 5 people, or if you are no longer part of that business, sharing your license is NOT allowed.

 

You agree that you will not modify, publish, transmit, reverse engineer, transfer, create derivative works, or in any way exploit any of the content, or any part of the content, that exists in the Digital Product, except to the extent required to fulfil the Purpose. You also agree that you will not use your access or any part of the content in order to compete with us or to harm our business prospects or relationships.

 

Our content is not for resale. Your purchase and use of the Digital Product does not entitle you to make any unauthorised use of our content. You will not delete or alter any proprietary rights or attribution notices in any content. You will use protected content solely for your individual use or business use to the extent required to fulfil the Purpose, and you will make no other use of the content without our specific written permission in advance. You agree that you do not acquire any ownership rights in any of our content. We do not grant you any licenses, express or implied, to our intellectual property (or our partners' intellectual property) except as specified in these DP Terms & Conditions.

 

You agree that any infringement of our (or our licensors’) intellectual property will result in an immediate termination of the license granted in these DP Terms & Conditions.

 

If you violate the terms of this license, your access to the Digital Product, the Online Community, and any other related content will be terminated immediately, and you shall not be entitled to a refund of any portion of the fees.

 

Furthermore, if you violate this license by giving or selling a copy of our content to anyone other than a license holder, sharing your account with anyone other than a license holder, or if you imply that anyone who gets access to our content has the right to use it for his/her/its commercial purposes, we reserve the right to invoice you for the licenses you have gifted or sold to others.

We respect our customers' privacy and will not disclose any Confidential Information you provide except as described in these DP Terms & Conditions.

Your Confidential Information may be shared with our staff, sub-contractors, and/or third party providers only to the extent necessary in order to provide the best services to you. If we do have to share your Confidential Information for this purpose, we will ensure that any person/business we share it with also stores and treats the Confidential Information with the appropriate level of security and secrecy.

 

Personal Responsibility

 

By using the Digital Product, you accept personal responsibility for the results of your actions. You agree that we have not made any guarantees about the results of taking (or choosing not to take) any action, whether recommended in the Digital Product or not.
