If you are a Client, the following provisions in Section 3 apply to you:
When you purchase a Tutor’s contact details, you have formed a binding contract with that Tutor. While we do assess each Tutor’s identity, background, and qualifications, Tutors’ Clients should understand that Tutors are self-employed and we have no control over how they perform their service. You should take responsibility for ensuring your Tutor fulfills his end of the bargain at every step of the relationship.
Your contract with us. When you purchase a Tutor's contact details through the Standard Service , we provide you the Tutor's contact details in exchange for your purchase. You acknowledge we begin providing the Services immediately after you purchase and you acknowledge that you cannot cancel your purchase or request a refund after your purchase, except in the circumstances described in Section 3 (Refunds).
Your contract with your Tutor. Your Tutor is self-employed. You agree that your Tuition Arrangement is with the Tutor and not with us. You agree we are not a party to any Tuition Arrangement and are not responsible for the performance of any obligations agreed to or impliedly agreed to between yourself and the Tutor.
Our safety measures. Before we provide a Tutor's contact details to you, we will have collected copies of certain basic information submitted by the Tutor in relation to their identity, experience, training, qualifications, and references (“Credentials”). Due to the number of Tutors listing their services through our Website, we are unable to check the Credentials of each Tutor. For this reason, we cannot guarantee that the information submitted by the Tutor on the Tutor’s profile of that the Tutor gives to you is accurate. You agree we are not responsible if the Tutor provides you with unsatsfactory Credentials. You should check all relevant information and documents provided before you choose to enter into a Tuition Arrangement with that Tutor.
Your responsibilities. It is your responsibility to verify a Tutor’s Credentials. You and your Tutor are responsible for agreeing on all matters relating to the Tuition Arrangement. You are responsible for verifying the Credentials of the Tutor with whom you enter into or seek to enter into a Tuition Arrangement.
You hereby confirm that you are not less than eighteen years of age. Any person seeking to use the Website or our Services who is less than eighteen years of age must arrange for a parent or guardian to register with us on their behalf and that parent or guardian will be the Client for the purposes of these Terms.
In the extremely unlikely event that we provide you with inaccurate contact details for your Tutor, your Tutor does not show up to a session, you cannot find a suitable meeting date with your Tutor, or your Tutor’s credentials are unsatisfactory, you may be able to request a refund within 10 days. Please contact us to request a refund.
How to request a refund.If you would like to request a refund, please contact us with full details and evidence of your request. We will give your Tutor the opportunity to respond to your request. If the Tutor does not respond within 10 days of our notice to the Tutor, you will be entitled to a refund if we determine you meet one (1) of the refund requirements below (see Section 3, Refunds, Refund Requirements). If your Tutor does respond, providing you a refund is in our sole discretion. Our refund process may take a maximum of 30 calendar days. We will reimburse you using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction.
While we strive to provide the best Tutor matching service possible, we cannot control your relationship with your Tutor. As such you are responsible for ensuring your own protection and we cannot be held liable if the Tutor does not meet your expectations.
You agree that we shall have no responsibility or liability related to any Tuition Arrangement or any relationship between you and any Tutor, save as may not be excluded by law. Entering or seeking to enter a Tuition Arrangement and engaging with a Tutor in any manner prior to entering a Tuition Arrangement is entirely at your own risk.
Clients under the age of 18 should not be left in the sole care of the Tutor and a parent or guardian must always be present for the duration of a tutoring session irrespective of where the tutoring is delivered. Clients over the age of 18 should inform a friend or relative of his / her plans, including the provision to a friend or relative of the name of the Tutor, times of tutoring, and the location that the tutoring is to be provided.
Some Tutors on our Website are actually Organisations who are not affiliated with us (other than their listing on our Website). Because Organsations are unaffiliated with us, just like Tutors, we are not responsible for their actions.
First Tutors does not charge potential clients for making contact with a Organisation.
Organisations are separate from First Tutors. The Website also contains information about and links to Organisations. For clarity, Organisations are not individual or independent Tutors. The inclusion of Organisations on the Website, as well as individual, independent Tutors, is designed to provide Clients with another path to finding the form of tutoring that best suits them. Organisations are independent entities and are not affiliated with First Tutors. Nothing in these Terms is intended to, or shall be deemed to, establish any partnership between First Tutors, and any Organisation. Nothing in these Terms will constitute an agency relationship between any First Tutors and any Organisation or authorise any party to make or enter into any commitments for or on behalf of any other party. You agree that, if you have a Tuition Arrangement, that Tuition Arrangement is a contract with the Organisation, not First Tutors, and that you will bring any action or claim against the Organisation, not First Tutors.
Venue. While First Tutors expects Organisations to provide their services in venues that are fit for purpose and to provide excellent tutoring, First Tutors will not be held liable (save as may not be excluded by law) for venues or tutoring that fails to meet your expectations.
Feedback. You may provide First Tutors with your feedback related to any Tuition Arrangement with an Organisation. First Tutors will, in its sole discretion, publish the feedback or not publish the feedback.
Organisation conduct. Organisations have a duty to present themselves in a lawful, honest, and accurate manner, and to not mislead a Client. If you discover this not the case, please inform us.

Additionally, your agreeing to provide the venue for a Tuition Arrangement will be considered as your warranting to First Tutors that said venue is clean, presentable, and in compliance with applicable law including but not limited to health and safety legislation; is generally fit for tutoring; and that you indemnify First Tutors in this regard.
In order to protect the integrity of our Website and Services and the interests of Clients, we retain certain rights with respect to Client refunds, cancellation fees, and the right to remove and edit any feedback posted on the Website.

If you subscribe to our Premium Tutor Service, the following provisions apply:
The Premium Tutors service provides access to market information to Tutors who subscribe. Certain restrictions to this service apply, for example, we may restrict your use of certain graphing features and access to the Standard Service is required for certain features to work properly.
Subscription and Services. Tutors may subscribe to become a Premium Tutor online by clicking the subscribe button in their member’s area. If you subscribe to our Premium Tutor Service, we will set up a recurring card payment permitting us to take a fixed fee per month on the first day of each month (“Premium Tutor Monthly Fee”). To terminate your subscription to the Premium Tutor Service, you must provide us with no less than three days’ notice from the date of your next payment by contacting us and stating that you wish to withdraw from the Premium Tutor Service.
The Services we provide to Premium Tutors include the making available of market information, in exchange for your payment to us of the subscription payments. The Premium Tutor Service is made available to you immediately after you subscribe and you acknowledge that, from that point, if you choose to cancel your subscription to the Premium Tutor Service, you will be entitled to a pro-rata refund for that month of payment of the Premium Tutor Monthly Fee you have paid (no refund will be made for Services already provided), except in the circumstances described in Section 10.4.
Fair use restrictions. Due to relevant technical constraints, your use of certain features of the Premium Tutor Service may be subject to fair use restrictions. When using the search and graph functions of the Premium Tutor Service, for best results, you should try to limit your requested search and graph parameters to the information you really need. If you try to use those functions to access a very broad set of information over a large geographical area, the information may not be made available due to fair use restrictions.
Standard Service access. If your access to the Standard Service is terminated, some of the features of the Premium Tutor Service may not be fully available to you or may not function in the same way as they would while you maintained access to the Standard Service. For example, searches and graphics for information about your pricing relevant to the pricing of other Tutors may not be fully available because, when your access to the Standard Service is terminated, your pricing information would no longer be listed.
Advance payments. Where advanced payments have been made, we may make a pro-rata refund of each monthly payment made for the remainder of the Services not yet used or provided at our discretion. For clarity, no refund shall be made for Services already provided.
Breach. Without limiting our other rights or remedies as more particularly set out in Section 10, if you are found to be in breach of Section 4, we may terminate your contract with us, effective upon our notice to you. We are under no obligation to provide you with a refund of any Premium Tutor Monthly Fee(s) you have paid.
Premium Tutors may only use the premium service for their own purposes (you may not give the market information to anyone else or allow anyone else to access your account). In addition, you may become responsible for the cost of a Client refund if you assist a Client in obtaining a refund.
Restricted use. You agree not to publish or disclose to others the market information we make available to you via the Premium Tutor Service, except in confidence to your professional advisers or as may be required by law or by the decision of a court or other body with authority. You agree not to share your login details for the Premium Tutor Service with others, or otherwise to enable others to access the Service. If multiple people within your organisation desire access to the Premium Tutor Service, you agree to arrange for a separate subscription for each of those people.
Communication responses. Subscribing to the Premium Tutor Service does not relieve you of your obligation to respond to all Clients in accordance with Section 4. We may switch off your listings if you do not respond within the time frame required in Section 4.
Client refunds. You agree that you will not directly or indirectly assist, suggest, or recommend to a Client that he or she apply for a refund for any Tuition Arrangement. You also agree you will not facilitate or provide further tutoring (where the tutoring is not via a First Tutors Tutoring Arrangement) to a Client who has applied for (or received) a refund from First Tutors. If you breach of this Section, we reserve the right to invoice you for the relevant refund as well as for any costs that we have reasonably incurred as a consequence of your breach of this Section. The prohibition on your provision of tutoring to a Client who has applied for (or received) a refund as outlined within this provision, will apply for a period of 12 weeks from our receipt of a written request for a refund from the Client.
These Terms and your account may always be terminated if you violate their terms, which includes providing false or defamatory comments on First Tutors. We require you keep your independent tutoring business separate from any other business activity. We do not allow solicitation of work for another service or business through our Website.
Your conduct toward us. If you make defamatory, untrue, inaccurate, or malicious written or verbal statements about First Tutors (including for example through a web based review site or on social media), we reserve the right to terminate our arrangement with you without notice and without liability. Where advance payment for Services has been made, we may make a pro-rata refund for the remainder of the Services not yet used or provided, but, for clarity, no refund will be made for Services already provided.
You agree you have personal liability for and indemnify First Tutors for any loss, liability, costs (including legal costs), damages, or expenses arising from any breach by you of these Terms including any negligent or reckless act, omission, or default in the provision of your services, and, accordingly, you agree to maintain in force during your engagement full and comprehensive insurance policies commensurate with your obligations under these Terms.
You agree that First Tutors has no responsibility or liability for your welfare at any time while you are engaged in a Tuition Arrangement, except as may not be excluded by law.
Maintaining an independent business. You warrant that you will provide your tutoring independently and not as an Organisation. You agree that Organisations must advertise their learning centres and group classes in the Organisations section of the Website as outlined elsewhere within these Terms. It may be that you tutor independently while also running a tuition centre (or similar), if this is the case, your profile must reflect only that you are offering services independently and not in any other capacity. You agree that your profile may not be used to promote any other business activity with which you are involved.
By using this Website and these accompanying terms generally, you warrant that you are offering services independently and not as an Organisation (as defined at the outset of these Terms).

Premium Tutors discovered to be soliciting work (in breach of Section 4) for their own tuition centres (or similar) through the Website (other than Organisations under Section 6) may have their profiles deleted (without notice and without liability) and may instead be invited to advertise their services as an Organisation.
The Website contains information about and links to Organisations, as defined at the outset of these Terms. For clarity, Organisations are not individual independent Tutors. The inclusion of Organisations on the Website, as well as individual independent Tutors, is designed to provide Clients with another path to finding the form of tutoring that best suits them.
If you are an Organisation, the following provisions apply.
All Organisations listed on our Website are independent entities and not affiliated with us apart from their listing on our Website.

As an Organisation using the Services provided by the Website, you agree that any information provided to us about your organisation, upon registration and throughout any engagement with First Tutors, will be true, accurate, up to date, and complete. If you provide us with false or misleading information or if you use your access to the Website in violation of these Terms, we reserve the right to terminate these Terms without notice or liability and to restrict any Organisation’s access to the Website and we will not be obligated to provide you with a refund.

The services of individual Tutors must be advertised in the Tutors section of the Website as outlined elsewhere within these Terms. Organisations agree that their profiles may not be used to promote any other business activity.
Organisations discovered to be soliciting for work (in breach of Section 5) when in fact they are actually independent Tutors may have their profiles deleted (without notice and without liability) and may instead be invited to advertise their services as Tutors.
Each Organisation warrants that it is offering its services solely as an Organisation (as defined at the outset of these Terms) and not as an individual.
As a Company on our Website, you will be charged a fee by us for the service we provide you. If you have reason to believe you have received fraudulent or duplicate leads, please let us know, in writing, within 5 days so we may investigate the legitimacy of the lead. You are not entitled to a refund for your purchase, but we may credit your account if we find we debited your account for a fraudulent or duplicate lead.
Fraudulent and duplicate leads. If an Organisation has reason to believe that it has received a fraudulent and / or duplicate lead, it should notify First Tutors within 5 days from receipt of the lead. On receipt of the notice, First Tutors will investigate the circumstances surrounding the lead and report its findings to the Organisation. If a lead proves to be fraudulent and / or duplicate, First Tutors will add a credit to the Organisation's account, said credit to be commensurate with the amount previously debited for the fraudulent and / or duplicate lead, the account credit will be made within 14 days of First Tutors confirming its findings. If First Tutors determines that the lead was a genuine lead, no credit shall be made. First Tutors’ decision shall be final.
Fees. Clients are not charged a fee by First Tutors for making contact with an Organisation. The Organisation and Client will agree the fee for the provision of any tutoring between them on a case by case basis.
Organisations agree to an advance fee with First Tutors as consideration for (i) exposure on and (ii) leads generated via the Website. A proportion of the advance fee is to cover future leads generated by the Website. First Tutors will debit the Organisation account for each lead the Organisation receives. First Tutors does not guarantee a minimum number of leads.
Refunds. Once an Organisation has placed an order for Website exposure and lead generation, it shall not be entitled to a refund (subject to Section 5).
Clients expect their Tutors to use professional conduct, as such, you must screen all your tutors before providing them with Clients you obtain through our Website. Your conduct on our Website is important as well. This especially includes the content of your advertisements you place on our Website and your use of any third parties posing as Clients on our Website.
Professional conduct.

No refunds are payable in these circumstances. Organisations explicitly consent to their contact information being passed on to potential Clients by First Tutors.
Tutor screening. Organisations warrant to First Tutors that each individual supplied by or engaged by them will have (at the Organisation's cost) been screened by the Disclosure and Barring Service. The Organisation will be solely responsible and liable for any issue that arises as a consequence of a Disclosure and Barring Service screening. The Organisation indemnifies First Tutors on an ongoing basis and without limit for any legal fees, cost, charge, or penalty directly arising from any action brought against it relating to a Disclosure and Barring Service.
Adverts. Organisations agree that they alone are responsible for the copy and content contained within the adverts they place on the Website. Accordingly, Organisations warrant that each advert they place is lawful, honest, accurate, and does not misrepresent the services they offer. Furthermore, adverts placed must focus solely on the services offered by that Organisation, must not include whether directly or indirectly any copy or content suggesting that potential Clients should cease using the services offered by First Tutors, and must not contain copy or content that could be considered as copy or content promoting services that are competitive to the Services offered via this Website. If First Tutors (acting reasonably) determines a breach of this provision may occur or has occurred, First Tutors reserves the right to withdraw the offending advert(s) without notice and without liability. You agree that no refunds are payable in these circumstances.

Organisations are prohibited from registering as a Client or posing as a potential Client.
