Cancellation

If you are a consumer based in the European Union, you have a legal right to cancel a contract under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 during the period set out below in this clause 11. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or decide for any other reason that you do not want to purchase dance123 Credit, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the contract and receive a refund.

Your legal right to cancel starts from the date you purchased dance123 Credit (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm your dance123 Credit), which is when the contract between us is formed (the "Contract Date"). The deadline for cancelling the contract is 14 days following the Contract Date.

To cancel the contract, you just need to let us know that you have decided to cancel. The easiest way to do this is to e-mail us at info (at) dance123.club.

If you cancel the contract we will:

  1. refund you the price you paid for the dance123 Credits; and
  2. make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the contract.

We will refund you using the method used to pay. If you used vouchers to pay for the Product we may refund you in vouchers.

The Consumer acknowledges that this agreement is a contract for the provision of online digital content and that, under the Consumer Contract (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, he (being a consumer located in the European Union) provides his consent for the supply of digital content before the end of the cancellation period.
