Your access to the Services is at all times subject to these Terms of Service.
The Website and Apps are offered and available to users aged 13 years old or over. By using the Website or Apps, you represent and warrant you are of legal age to form a binding contract with Us.

3. Duration & termination
Your right to terminate: You may cancel your subscription at any time by following the instructions on this page.
If you have any questions please contact us via this page here.
Your right to a refund:
In accordance with the Distance Selling Regulations 2000 the following directive relates to the exception to the right to cancel:
(a) Unless the parties have agreed otherwise, the consumer will not have the right to cancel the contract by giving notice of cancellation pursuant to regulation 10 in respect of contracts;
(b) For the supply of services if the supplier has complied with regulation 8(3) and performance of the contract has begun with the consumer's agreement before the end of the cancellation period applicable.
Your contract with SquashSkills is deemed to commence when your Access to the Services is enabled, and as such the above regulation applies and we do not offer the right to cancel once the first access has been made and therefore no refunds are given.
It is your responsibility to ensure that you cancel your account as this is a rolling subscription service. No refunds will be given if you fail to cancel as per the instructions outlined in clause 3.
Our right to terminate:
SquashSkills may terminate this agreement with immediate effect and by written notice at any time if you commit a material breach of this agreement (and any breach of clause 2 or 6 will be considered to be a material breach) or if you do not fulfil any of the technical requirements set out in clause 4. In addition, SquashSkills may terminate this agreement on one calendar month's notice given in writing to you in accordance with clause 5.
If SquashSkills terminates the agreement other than as a result of your breach or technical non-compliance, you may receive a refund of the amount you pre-paid for the Services less an amount proportionate to the number of days for which you have had access to the Services.
Coach-Group Subscribers
Where you subscribe to our Services when acting in the course of a trade, business or profession such as operating as a coach or organisation, there are supplemental terms applying to your use set out here, and that shall prevail in the event of any conflict.
4. The services & service availability
The services shall be for the provision to you of access to Services on this Website and Apps including coaching videos. SquashSkills reserves the right to amend the nature and extent of the Services available at any time. You are responsible for ensuring you have and maintain all hardware and software necessary to access, receive and view the Services. Where We reasonably determine you do not meet these requirements, we reserve the right to refuse the provision of Services to you.
In such a case you will be entitled to a refund of any sums paid as provided for in clause 3 ("Our right to terminate"). SquashSkills will use its reasonable endeavours to ensure that the Services are made available to you at all times.
However, this Website and Apps are provided on an "as is" basis. In particular, the image and sound quality of the Services may vary, whether due to congestion on the internet or telephone lines or otherwise. The Website and Apps may not be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free. From time to time we will need to close the Website and Apps to carry out upgrades or maintenance. We will try to keep this to a minimum. Subject to the constraints described above, We will carry out the Services with reasonable care and skill.
Apart from this we make no representation or warranty (and exclude all warranties and conditions otherwise implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law). This does not affect any other statutory rights you may have as a consumer or business.
