Squarespace Payments is a fully integrated, native payment solution provided to us by our online store service provider Squarespace. Squarespace has its own payments terms, which you should review here: https://www.squarespace.com/payments-terms.

    Squarespace Payments makes use of the following third party service providers which will also receive your personal information and process it in accordance with their payments terms:

    (a) to us sending you electronic communications (including via email and text) in relation to upcoming and successful payments managed via the Mouthy Platform; and

    (b) for the payment processor to access your bank account which is nominated by you from time to time, and to either deduct or deposit the applicable amount, less any fee which may apply.

    You acknowledge and agree that when using the Squarespace Payments service on the Mouthy Platform, you will comply with Stripe’s end user licence agreement in respect to your use of the Stripe service, which you can review here: https://stripe.com/gb/legal/ssa. You also acknowledge that Stripe’s privacy policy (found at: https://stripe.com/gb/privacy) shall apply to Stripe’s processing of any personal information you submit to Stripe via the Mouthy Platform.

    We shall not be liable to any person if Stripe or any other payment processor is not able to deduct or deposit any amount due to insufficient funds or incorrect bank account details.

    4.7 If the credit card details you have provided us with via your Account are invalid at the point of us charging you for the Fees owed to us, we shall inform you by email.

    4.8 If your payment fails, after notifying you we shall continue to attempt to take payment up to three (3) times over a period of seven (7) days to allow you to update your payment details. If we do not have valid payment details your Account will be paused automatically and you shall not have access to your Mouthy Club Account for that Quarter.

    4.8 If your card details are not updated to a valid payment method, we reserve the right to permanently delete your Account and all data held within.

  • Cooling-off period
    5.1
    If you are a consumer, 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 clause 5.2. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or for any other reason you decide you no longer wish to be a Mouthy Club Member, you can notify us of your decision to cancel this agreement and receive a refund of the Fees (if your Services have not already been delivered). If your Services have already been delivered you will still be charged for the remaining payments for that Quarter and you will not be entitled to a refund but cancellation will still take effect and you will not receive any further charges or any further Mouthy Club offerings after your first subscription Quarter.

    5.2 Your legal right to cancel this agreement starts from the date you begin your Mouthy Club subscription.

    5.3 To cancel this agreement, please contact us in writing to tell us by sending an e-mail to hello@getmouthy.co.uk. You may wish to keep a copy of your cancellation notification for your own records. If you send us your cancellation notice by email, then your cancellation is effective from the date you sent us the email.

    Cancellation after the cooling-off period
    5.4
    After the expiry of the cooling-off period set out in clause 5.2, you may cancel your Account at any time by clicking on the ‘Cancel Subscription’ link on your Account settings page. You are solely responsible for properly cancelling your Account.

    5.5 You may cancel your Quarterly Subscription at any time by selecting to do so via your account. Each quarter, you will have the option to cancel your Quarterly Subscription during the first ten (10) weeks of the Quarter. If you elect to cancel during this time, you will not have access to your Mouthy Club Account from the first day of the following Quarter and will not be charged for it.

    Pausing your subscription
    5.6
    If you are signed up for a Quarterly Subscription, you may also choose to pause your subscription for the next Quarter at any time via your Account (“Pause Plan”). If you choose to Pause Plan you will still be charged Fees for the current Quarter but your Subscription will be paused for the next Quarter, therefore you will not receive access to your Mouthy Club Account during the next Quarter and you will not be charged by us until you reactivate your Quarterly Subscription via your Account.

    5.7 If you receive your Services and you are not satisfied with them for whatever reason, please let us know by contacting us at hello@getmouthy.co.uk. You may be entitled to a refund.
