4.5. We will endeavour to ensure that the Laboratory performs the Services with the best skill, care and diligence in accordance with best practice in their profession.

5.1. To submit an initial order, you must register for or log in to your account on the Site (Account) and, via your personal profile dashboard, provide the requested information.

5.2. Our acceptance of your order for Services will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point a Services contract will come into existence between you and us on the basis of these Terms of Service. You confirm that you request immediate performance of this contract for Services.

5.3. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this by email and we, on behalf of the Laboratory, will not charge you for the Services (or shall refund you). For example, in the case of unexpected limits on resources which we, or the Laboratory, could not reasonably plan for. You acknowledge that a refund of any amounts paid will be your only available remedy if we are unable to accept your order after it has been placed.

5.4. For Customers not opting for our subscription product, if you request further blood tests (including re-tests), each such request constitutes an additional and separate order which we will notify you as being accepted by us pursuant to these Terms of Service.

5.5. For Customers opting for our subscription product, your initial order constitutes acceptance of these Terms of Services for all subsequent tests.

 

6. Price and payment

6.1. The price of the Services will be the price indicated on the order pages of the Site when you placed your order. We will provide you with an invoice on request with a breakdown of fees.

7. Blood testing process

7.1. Unless you purchase a Kit from a member of our team in person, we will usually post the Kit to you on the next working day after we have accepted your order. This Kit is for you to collect your own blood sample in accordance with the blood collection protocols provided, and contains instructions on how to submit your blood sample along with a request form.

7.2. You must complete your personal details on the form provided entitled “request form” – and also on the blood sample(s). You acknowledge that blood samples that are not fully and correctly labelled cannot be processed. It is not possible to make changes to the request form once it has been sent to the Laboratory.

7.3. The validity of the Kit will expire after 30 days of delivery to you, so you are required to collect and post your blood sample to the Laboratory at the address provided within that period. You acknowledge that test outcomes depend on the quality of the blood sample provided by you, so you agree to adhere to the blood collection protocols provided. If you do not follow these protocols a defective or partial test result may occur. We may, at our discretion, give you the opportunity of re-testing free of charge if a partial result is reported by the Laboratory, and/or similarly if your blood sample was clotted at the time of receipt by the Laboratory.

 

8. The report

8.1. We anticipate that the Report will typically be available within 2-7 working days from the date your blood sample is received by the Laboratory. We will notify you by email that your Account dashboard has been updated accordingly.

8.2. The Report is prepared solely on the basis of your blood sample and the information which you have provided to us, without access to your full medical records. Whilst tailored to your personal information, you understand the Report is generic in nature.

8.3. This means that (i) you must not rely on the Report to diagnose or treat suspected or actual medical conditions; and (ii) you are solely responsible for any actions you do (or do not) take before and after receiving the Report, and when you take (or do not take) such actions.

8.4. We recommend that you always consult an appropriate medical professional for advice on your specific circumstances and situation, in particular before adopting any of the general healthcare of lifestyle advice offered in the Report or otherwise via the Services.

8.5. You accept that any incomplete or inaccurate information on your health profile may lead to incomplete or inaccurate interpretation and healthcare and lifestyle advice.

8.6. You assume full responsibility for reading, and drawing conclusions from the results and Report obtained from use of the Services (including the Report and your Account dashboard) and understand that we do not offer follow-up consultations based on the results.

9.2. Exercising the right to change your mind

9.2.1. Subject to clause 9.2.2., you will have no right to cancel the Services contract and receive a refund if we have made available the Report via your Account dashboard within 14 days of the day after we have accepted your order pursuant to clause 13; as we, the Laboratory and the Doctor would have fully performed the Services contract as it relates to your order. This provision will apply in a similar manner to each subsequent re-test that you request and order we accept.

9.2.2. If you have a right to cancel the Services contract and wish to do so, you must email us at contact@elevateme.ai with details of your order (including the date it was accepted, your name and any order reference number we provided to you) and a clear statement that you wish to cancel your Services contract, in either case before the expiry of the 14 day period referred to in clause 9.2.1.

9.2.3. If you cancel a Services contract within this 14 day period, you will (subject to any deduction permitted by law – as detailed in clause 9.2.4. below) receive a refund for all money paid by you for the Service contract. The refund will be made as soon as reasonably possible, but not later than 14 days after the date on which we were informed about your decision to cancel the Services contract. We will reimburse you using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you expressly agree otherwise.

9.2.4. We reserve the right to deduct the following reasonable amounts which we consider to be in proportion to what Services have been performed up until the point you communicate cancellation to us:

(a) If your blood sample has been received by the Laboratory before the date that we receive notice of your decision to cancel the Services contract, but you have not yet received the Report, we will refund you 10% of the relevant Service price; or

(b) If you have not sent your blood sample to the Laboratory for testing before the date that we receive notice of your decision to cancel the Services contract, we will refund you the relevant Service price less £9.00. The £9.00 is used to cover the costs of the Kit and postage. The kit can be disposed by recycling the card and placing the rest in general waste.

All other circumstances will be assessed on a case by case basis. In any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.

9.3. We have done something wrong

9.3.1. Apart from your cancellation rights above:

(a) if you inform us and can demonstrate that the Kit received is within reason damaged or defective, you will be entitled to a replacement or, where we are unable to send you a replacement Kit within a reasonable time, a refund of the relevant Service price; and

(b) if the Service is not otherwise carried out to the standard outlined at clause 4.5, you can require repeat performance or, where we or the Laboratory are unable to perform the repeat Services within a reasonable time, a refund of an appropriate amount.

9.3.2. Nothing in these Terms of Service will affect any statutory or other rights you are entitled to by law.

 

10. Our right to cancel the services contract

10.1. We may end the Services contract at any time by written notice to you if:

10.1.1. you do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information that is necessary for us, or the Laboratory, to provide the Services;

If we end the Services contract in circumstances set out in clause 10.1., we will (on behalf of the Laboratory, as appropriate) refund any money you have paid in advance for Services that have not been provided, but we may at our sole discretion deduct or charge you a reasonable amount as compensation for costs we and/or the Laboratory have incurred or will incur as a result of ending the Services contract, including any extra work that is required as a result of the circumstances set out in clause 10.1.

 

11. Your acknowledgements

11.1. By placing your order, you agree and represent to us that you are legally capable of entering into this binding agreement between you and us; that you are at least 18 years old and you have completed an accurate and up-to-date request form identifying the blood sample as one taken from yourself. We shall have no liability for any loss or damage caused by errors or omissions in any information provided by you in connection with the Services, or any action taken by us or the Laboratory at your direction.

11.2. By placing your order, you acknowledge the potential impacts and risks of taking your own blood sample, and that (subject to clause 11.3.) you are proceeding on the basis that you accept full responsibility for any outcomes or consequences that may arise from this.

11.3. You acknowledge and agree that the Services are not a substitute for actual medical diagnosis or consultation with a doctor, and that the information contained in the Report does not constitute medical advice and/or recommendations for medical treatment regarding any aspect of your health, medicine intake, nutrition or lifestyle.

11.4. You acknowledge that the Report and that the information contained in it may not be comprehensive (including information which would could be obtained through blood testing but was not identified in your Report for any reason).

11.5. You acknowledge and agree that in rare cases, viable blood samples cannot always be taken from the blood sample actually provided. Services will be deemed successfully performed if the Laboratory believes they are able to provide a valid result, otherwise stating which results are invalid.

11.6. You acknowledge and agree that minor inter-laboratory variability exists. Consequently, where minor results variability is seen, for example upon tracking an individual test over time, such minor variability is tolerated and you assume overall responsibility for overseeing your long-term trends. You also agree that on occasion, because of inter-laboratory variability, minor changes may throw two adjacent test points narrowly inside and outside of ‘normal’ reference range but are essentially indicating insignificant variation.

 

12. Liability

12.1. If we fail to comply with these Terms of Service, we are responsible for direct loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen.

 

13. Third party terms

13.1. Services are only supplied for domestic and private use. If you use the Services with our consent, written or otherwise, for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, loss of business opportunity or any other form of indirect loss.

13.2. If you receive the Services via any commercial, business or re-sale third party channel, we will have no liability to you for any such third party’s provision of the Services to you which will be entirely governed by the agreement between you and the third party.

13.3. If you receive third party services as part of a follow-up consequent to the results received as part of the Elevate Services, clause 13.2. applies even if continuity with Elevate is maintained via the Platform or ongoing Services.

13.4. If you receive third party doctor advice as part of a follow-up consequent to the results Report known as Elevate Services, irrespective of whether Elevate provided the follow-up pathway, clause 13.2. applies.

 

14. Other important terms

14.1. Assignment and other dealings: You may not transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms of Service without our prior written consent.

14.2. Waiver: if we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms of Service, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking the Services contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

14.3. Severance: Each of the paragraphs of these Terms of Service operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

14.4. Third Party Rights: The Services contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.

14.5. Governing Law/ Jurisdiction: These Terms of Service are governed by English law and you or we can bring legal proceedings in respect of the Services in the English courts.
