7.1 You have a legal right to cancel a Contract under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 during the period set out below in clause 7.2. This means that during the relevant period, if you change your mind or decide for any other reason that you do not want to make use of a Service, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund.

7.2 Your legal right to cancel a Contract starts from the date of the Delivery Confirmation (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your order), which is when the Contract between us is formed. You have 14 days to cancel the Contract should you wish to (for example, if the Contract is formed on 1st January the last day on which you may cancel the Contract is the 15th January).

7.3 You are unable to cancel the Contract at any time if you access a Service, or begin to use the Services in any way.

7.4 To cancel a Contract, you just need to let us know that you have decided to cancel. The easiest way to do this is to e-mail us at support@icbai.org. If you are e-mailing us please include details of your order to help us to identify it.

7.5 If you cancel your Contract as described in the previous clauses we will refund you the price you paid for the Services.

7.6 We will refund you on the credit card or debit card used by you to pay.

These legal rights are not affected by your right of return and refund in this clause 7 or anything else in these Terms. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.

8. Price and Payment

8.1 The prices of the Services will be as quoted on our site at the time you submit your order.

However please see clause 8.4 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of a Service that you ordered.

8.2 Prices for Services may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order you have already placed.

8.3 The price of a Service excludes VAT or any other sales tax. Should VAT or any other sales tax apply to the provision of the Services then the full price (including tax) will be shown to you on our site before you confirm your order.

8.4 Our site contains a large number of Services. It is always possible that some of the Services are priced incorrectly. If we discover an error in the price of the Service you have ordered we will contact you to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Service at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing. Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognized by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Service to you at the incorrect (lower) price.

Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is an obvious consequence of our breach or if it was contemplated (or should have been contemplated) by you and us at the time we entered into this contract.

15.3 Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

15.4 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

15.5 These Terms are governed by English law. This means a Contract for the purchase of Services through our site and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction except that if you are a resident of Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are a resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.
