THE PROGRAM/SERVICE

YOU AGREE THAT BY USING THE SERVICE YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD AND THAT YOU ARE LEGALLY ABLE TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

​

Mentoring is a conversational, collaborative partnership (defined as an alliance, not a legal business partnership) between the Mentor and the Client. It is intended to be a collaborative conversation that aims to help the Client identify and manage their own goals and gain clarity and insights. It is focused purely on the Client’s agenda. It helps discover the way to progress, and by asking questions, offering points of view, suggestions or conversation as appropriate, and helps the Client find answers and take actions. It is supportive and non-judgmental. You enter into the working relationship with the understanding that you are responsible for creating your own results.

​

Unless otherwise defined by a specific program, the schedule of sessions will be arranged between the Mentor and the Client and can be booked up to 3 months in advance. The Mentor may recommend the frequency of sessions based on a professional assessment of the client’s requirements. This recommendation, or plan, is not binding and may be altered and adjusted throughout by mutual agreement, in accordance with the terms set out in this agreement. The Mentor will be available to the Client by e-mail and voicemail in between scheduled meetings as defined by the Mentor. The Mentor may also be available for additional time, per Client’s request on a prorated basis as defined by the Mentor (for example, reviewing documents, reading or writing reports, engaging in other client related services outside of previously agreed hours) or as defined by the Program or related promotional offer. Participation by any individual in the first mentoring/strategy session constitutes acceptance of these terms and conditions.

​

3. Maintain confidentiality.

4. Provide access or direction to additional materials that may assist the Client, including but not limited to; training materials, recommendation for third party courses and/or further reading materials.

[Program specific]: Where the client is participating in a group program or session, they agree to be bound by strict confidentiality and will not share, name or discuss the content, opinions, feedback or other information disclosed by other participants of that program or session. This is necessary to protect all involved including the client, but also in order to promote an open and productive group atmosphere. This restriction shall apply to all written and verbal interactions conducted during the course of any such program, including group virtual meetings and participation on the online community platform.

As such, the Client agrees that the Mentor/Consultant is not and will not be liable for any actions or inaction, or for any direct or indirect result of any services provided by the Mentor/Consultant. The Client understands mentoring is not therapy and does not substitute for therapy if needed, and does not prevent, cure, or treat any mental disorder or medical disease. The Client understands that mentoring is not to be used as a substitute for professional advice by legal, mental, medical or other qualified professionals and will seek independent professional guidance for such matters.

​

FEES

The schedule (including number and frequency of sessions) and the fees due will either: (1) be agreed at the start of mentoring/training between the Mentor/Consultant and the Client and confirmed by email, or (2) be as indicated on the relevant website/checkout page at time of purchase. Where no specific duration or frequency is agreed, sessions will be provided on a session-by-session basis and paid for in advance. The date that the first mentoring session takes place (or the date of first login/receipt of funds for online programs) shall be deemed to be the start date for the service/Program. In return for the fees payable by the Client (or by a third party on their behalf), the Mentor/Consultant agrees to provide the service as described in the relevant online order or email correspondence, and in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in this agreement. The client agrees to pay fees for the service on the terms and conditions set out in this agreement (in situations where a third party pays the fees, the third party counts as an agent acting on behalf of the client).

​

REFUND POLICY

10-Day Money Back Guarantee

We want you to be satisfied with your purchase, but we also want you to give your best effort to apply what you’ll learn. We offer a 10-day refund period for purchases.

​

In the event that you decide your purchase was not the right decision, within 10 days of enrolment, contact us at info@griffonconsulting.co.uk and let us know you’d like a refund by the 10th day at 11:59 GMT (or BST if applicable).

​

Notes about our refund policy:

1. Within the first 10 days from original date of purchase, you can request a refund.

2. No refunds will be given after 10 days from the original date of purchase. After day 10, all payments are non-refundable, and you are responsible for full payment of the fees for any ongoing program you have purchased, including any monthly payments yet to fall due.

3. In the case of ad hoc or one-off sessions, no refund will be given if the session in question has already taken place (since you will have already recieved the service at this point).

4. All refunds are discretionary as determined by the Mentor/Consultant. If you download all training or supporting materials, take advantage of the special deals/discounts, and then ask for a refund, we reserve the right to deny your request. Why? Our generous refund policy was built to give people the opportunity to see if the Program is a good fit for their business. Stealing the material is NOT covered under this policy.

 

To further clarify, we will not provide refunds after the 10th day from your date of purchase and all payments must be made on a timely basis.

Once payment is made for booking a session, fees are 100% non-refundable, but session fees can be applied to an appointment at a later date if you need to reschedule.

​

To reschedule a session, email us at info@griffonconsulting.co.uk. If the session is cancelled less than 24 hours before the scheduled start of your call, no refunds are available unless there are mitigating circumstances; life happens, and we want to be flexible, so we anticipate this being a conversation at the time.

​

If applicable, the Client will be billed in full for a missed session if the client does not turn up or hasn't rescheduled in accordance with the above. The Mentor/Consultant will wait for 15 minutes, before the Client is noted as not attending the session.
