These Terms apply to and create a binding agreement in relation to your access to, or use of, any of our Offerings, this website, and any of our content, information or communications that we distribute across multiple platforms (including but not limited to: social media platforms, and/or email newsletters).

By visiting or using our Site and any of our Offerings, you agree to these Terms. Please read these Terms & Conditions in conjunction with our Privacy Policy, and Financial Services Guide (FSG), both of which you also agree to by using our site and any of our Offerings.

1. OUR OFFERINGS, INCLUDING: COURSES, EVENTS, CONTENT & OTHER

1.1 The information you obtain from or through any of our Offerings, website, or any associated content, is general information, and for entertainment, education or information purposes only. Your personal circumstances have not been considered in the development of this content or material. You are solely responsible for confirming the accuracy and appropriateness of the information and material provided by us for your own personal use.

1.2 We and any of the contractors, employees, speakers or persons who provide or contribute to an Offering through us, are not establishing any professional-client or professional advisory relationship with you through your use or access of any of our Offerings or content. They are not providing professional advice to you, they are simply providing information and education for you to use at your own discretion.

1.3 Any information provided by us (including via any of our Offerings, website, online content, platforms, forums and social media) is provided for the purpose of entertainment, education or information only, and is in no way intended to provide you personal advice on what you should do in regards to your personal financial circumstances.

1.4 None of our content is intended to provide you personal financial advice. We are only here to provide general information for you to apply at your own discretion. You may wish to seek independent financial advice from a professional advisor, accountant for advice pertaining to your specific situation.

1.5 We sometimes engage external speakers or persons to contribute their expertise and opinions to our Offerings (for example, we may invite speakers to speak at some of our events, or provide material for some of our Offerings). We cannot be held responsible or liable for the opinions or information shared by these external parties. Their views are their own and not representative of our views.

1.6 From time to time, we may provide examples of, or links to, a third-party service provider or product. We make no warranties as to the services or products provided by these third-party providers, and cannot be held liable or responsible for any services or products provided by third-party providers, or your experience with them. You should conduct your own due diligence regarding any third-party providers before engaging with their products and/or services.

1.7 We may provide information on and links to third-party tools, resources, services or products in our Offerings, content, social media or website. This information is educational in nature only, designed to make you aware of the existence of tools. It is in no way a recommendation for you to use or engage with the mentioned tools or resources. You bear the responsibility for conducting your own due diligence, and for determining if the products or tools are appropriate for your own circumstances.

1.8 The information we provide is not exhaustive in nature. The world of money and finance is really big. We do not cover all aspects of everything. There may be information outside what we cover in our Offerings that is relevant and important for you to consider. So consider our material, content and Offerings as just one tool in your personal finance toolkit. You may need to obtain further advice, or seek independent financial advice, for more specific information on your situation.

1.9 We do not make any guarantees or warranties about the accuracy or completeness of the information provided in our content, on our website, or in any of our Offerings. You accept sole responsibility for verifying and using any information you have obtained from us, and any implications from the use of that information. It is your responsibility to do your own due diligence into the correctness of the information and its appropriateness for your circumstances.

2. PRICE, COURSE FEES, PAYMENT & TERMS OF SALE

2.1 Our Offering(s) may be made available for free or for a fee, at our sole discretion.

2.2 The price or fee we charge for any Offerings, as well as payment options, will be outlined at the time of purchase. If you wish to purchase an Offering, you are responsible for paying us any applicable taxes or fees payable in connection with your purchase.

2.3 The fees of some Offerings may be payable in the form of a ‘payment plan’, where the entire fee payable will be paid over a period of time. If you select this payment method, you grant us permission to automatically charge the applicable and agreed fee to your designated payment method at the beginning of each applicable payment period, until all payments have been completed. Where a payment plan is payable, you agree to keep your designated payment method information accurate, including all billing information. You also understand that when selecting a ‘payment plan’ option, you are required to complete all the payments. A ‘payment plan’ is not a ‘cancellable subscription’ payment that you can cancel at any time. You must complete ALL payments detailed as part of the payment plan.

2.4 You must provide valid and complete billing information. Only valid payment methods acceptable to us, or our designated payment processors, may be used to purchase any of our paid Offerings. By submitting your order to purchase access to our Offerings, you represent and warrant that you are authorised to use your designated payment method and authorise us, or our designated payment processors, to charge your purchase to that method. If at any time your payment method cannot be verified or is invalid or is declined, your order or access to the Offering(s) you have paid for may be temporarily suspended or cancelled at our sole discretion. You must resolve any problem we encounter in processing your payments in order to proceed with your order or regain access to the Offering(s) you are wanting to purchase or have already purchased.

2.5 If you are on a payment plan, and you fail to pay or we are unable to charge your designated payment method according to the payment schedule, we have the right to suspend or cancel your access to the Offering you have partially paid for. If your account or access to the Offerings are suspended or cancelled for failure to pay, you will not receive any refund except at our sole discretion. If your account or access to the Offerings are suspended or cancelled for failure to pay, and your purchase of the Offerings came with a specified time period during which you could have access to the Offerings, your time period will not be extended by the period of time your account or access was suspended or cancelled (for example, if you originally enrolled in a course that provided 12 months access to course materials, if your account is suspended for one month due to failure to pay according to your payment schedule, you will not receive a one month extension to the 12 months of access).

2.6 In the event of an error that results in an incorrect charge, we reserve the right to correct such error and revise your order accordingly if necessary (including charging the correct price) or to cancel the order and refund any erroneous amount charged. In addition, we may, in lieu of a refund as provided in this paragraph, provide you with the option of receiving a service credit, with a value equal to the amount mischarged to your payment method.

2.7 You agree to submit any disputes regarding any charge to your account in writing to us within thirty (30) days of such charge including in your submission any evidence of the mischarge, or your dispute is waived and such charge will be final and not subject to challenge. You may dispute a charge by sending an email to us at support[at]skilledsmart.com.au

2.8 We retain the right to refuse to accept customers into our paid Offerings, at our sole discretion, even if you are willing and able to pay. For example, we may refuse to serve customers who we believe are using our Offerings for criminal or illegitimate purposes, or who are violating our terms of service, etc. If you have successfully processed a payment for the purchase of one of our Offerings, and we do not wish to accept you as a customer, we will refund the amount you have paid and also revoke your access to the Offerings.

2.9 If you are on a payment plan, and you fail to pay or we are unable to charge your designated payment method according to the payment schedule, we have the right to send your account and details to a debt collection agency or third-party collection service provider for any outstanding payments you owe us, or pursue legal action against you to recover the money you owe us. In such an event, you understand and agree that we may also require you to pay any fees and costs associated with trying to recover or collect your payments owed to us, including but not limited to any fees charged to us by the debt collection agency or any legal fees.

2.10 Upon payment in full for an Offering advertised as “lifetime access,” you will receive access to the Offering that you purchased for the duration of the time we operate the Site and the specific Offering you have purchased, subject to these Terms. We reserve the right to discontinue any Offerings in full or part, and adjust the Site and Offerings at our sole discretion, so, where available, be sure to download any material you want to keep, since you’ll no longer have access to the membership area should we discontinue the Offering.

2.11 If you pay for an Offering which comes with limited-time access (e.g. 12 months), you will receive access to the Offering and its associated content for the specified period of time only, starting from your date of purchase, provided that your payments are either completed or in good standing according to your payment schedule. Once the specified time-period is over, your access to the Offering will be removed, regardless of how much of the Offering you have chosen to engage with or complete.

3. REFUND POLICY / “RISK-FREE GUARANTEE”

3.1 If you purchase any of our Offerings, please be aware that we do not offer refunds simply because you’ve changed your mind, or decided you do not wish to do the work involved in completing or engaging with the Offering.

3.2 For some of our Offerings, we may offer a ‘60-day risk-free guarantee’. We are confident about the value of our Offerings. However we also know that the students who get the best results are those who put in the work. So this risk-free guarantee is designed to hold our students accountable for completing the coursework, which is the best way to see results. We make it clear, and do not any time suggest otherwise, that you need to do the work, to see results from the Offerings. There’s no ‘magic pill’ or ‘quick fix’ solutions that we offer. They all take commitment and work on your part.

3.3 The terms of the ‘60-day risk-free guarantee’ are as follows:

(a) This guarantee states that if, within 60 days of purchasing the Offering to which this guarantee applies, you watch all the video lessons, complete all the activities and action items, and have not made any progress or results or derived any learning value at all in the process; and if we cannot help you get value from the Offering you have purchased, we will refund all the money you paid in purchasing the Offering. This guarantee only applies to the specific Offerings where the guarantee is specified.

(b) The 60-days commences from the date you purchase the Offering for which the guarantee applies.

(c) To be eligible for the refund you must have completed the entire Offering, and made a genuine attempt to obtain value from the Offering. This means you must have: completed all the video lessons, completed all the activities and action items in the Offering, contacted our support team or community for help if you get stuck or have questions whilst completing the Offering, and demonstrated that despite completing the Offering to the best of your ability, you have not benefited or seen any results or progress at all.

(d) To be eligible for the refund, you must email us at support[at]skilledsmart.com.au within the first 60-days after your purchase, with: (i) proof of your purchase, (ii) all completed worksheets and activities from the course (including any documents where you have completed activities outside the workbook), to prove that you have done all the work, (iii) an explanation of why the Offering did not work for you.

(e) Once we receive the information, we will review what you’ve sent and get in touch with you. We’re committed to working with students to get them real results. After receiving and reviewing your email, we may require you to be available for a call to discuss your coursework, so we can see whether there is some way we can support or assist you with getting the results you were expecting. If we are unable to support you in making progress or getting value from the Offering, we will provide a full refund. If you did not complete all of the content or activities in the Offering, you will not be eligible for the refund. We do not issue a refund if you decide not to attempt or complete the Offering you purchased.

(f) You understand and acknowledge that we hold the sole discretion as to whether we accept or deny a request for refund. We have the right to refuse to issue a refund under the ‘60-day-risk-free guarantee’ for any reason. For instance, if we determine that the request is not within the spirit of the guarantee, or is being made to try and ‘game’ the system, we may refuse a refund.

(g) You are only eligible for the 60-day refund if you have successfully completed, on time, without delay, all the required payments according to your chosen payment plan. If you have outstanding payments, or delayed or declined payments, we may decline to issue you a refund. The refund is not a way to get your money back if you later decide you cannot afford to fulfil your payment obligations. You should consider in advance of enrolling in any Offerings, whether you can afford the full cost of the program.

(h) Refunds are issued through our chosen payment processor. Please note that once we have arranged for a refund through our payment processor, we cannot control the time it takes for the payment processor to issue the refund, and cannot be responsible for any delays.

3.3 If you are offered a full-refund as per section 3.2 we will remove your access to the program for which you have received a refund, and any associated materials / content.4. THIRD PARTY SITES
