where we get your consent when you sign up, you waive your statutory right to:

Refunds and credits

Without affecting your statutory rights, payments are non-refundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used Courses. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration. If we do this for any reason this does not mean we are obligated to do so again, even in the same circumstances.

Your data usage
1. Availability of the Service depends on the quality of your internet connection and device capabilities.
2. You are responsible for all internet access, mobile data or other charges incurred when using the Service. Remember that streaming and downloading audio-visual content such as videos can use up a lot of data.
Changes to the Service
1. We may regularly make changes to any element of the Service. In particular, the availability of Courses may change from time to time (for various reasons, such as where relevant third party rights-holders withdraw or restrict our right to use that content on the Service). We therefore have the right to add or withdraw Courses at any time, with or without notice.

Any copying, access, transfer, public performance or communication to the public or other use of the Service, the Courses or the Website other than as expressly authorised by applicable laws or these Terms shall constitute an infringement of applicable intellectual property rights and a breach of these Terms.
