DISCLAIMER

Please note that your access to the Platform may expose you to the risk of physical harm or personal injury, particularly given we do not monitor you while you are accessing the Platform or practising any routines we share on the Platform. The risk of physical harm or personal injury may further arise from, but is not limited to, your physical fitness level, the location in which you access the Platform, the equipment you use when performing any of the routines published on the Platform and your level of experience in burlesque and dance. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that you are accessing, using and practising the content on the Platform in a safe way. You understand and voluntarily accept any risk that may arise from your use of the Platform. We limit our liability as permitted under the Australian Consumer Law, please see the Recreational Waiver below. 

 

OUR DISCLOSURES

Please read these Terms carefully before you accept. We draw your attention to the fact that:

  • we will handle your personal information in accordance with our privacy policy, available at online;

  • subject to your Consumer Law Rights:

    • (where our Services are not ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use or consumption) in respect of any failure by us to comply with relevant Consumer Law Rights, our Liability is limited (at our discretion) to supplying the Services again or paying the cost of having the Services supplied again;

    • our aggregate liability to you for any Liability arising from or in connection with these Terms will be limited to the amount of any Subscription Fees paid by you to us in respect of the supply of the relevant Services to which the Liability relates;

    • we will not be liable for Consequential Loss or delays or failures in performance caused or contributed to by an event or circumstance beyond our reasonable control;

    • your Subscription is for the Subscription Period and cannot be cancelled early, except where these Terms are terminated;

  • we may amend these Terms at any time, by providing written notice to you, and by clicking “I accept” or continuing to use our Platform after the notice or 30 days after notification (whichever date is earlier), you agree to the amended Terms. If you do not agree to the amendment, you may close your Account and cancel your Subscription with effect from the date of the change in these Terms by providing written notice to us. If you cancel your Subscription and have paid Subscription Fees upfront, you will be issued a pro-rata refund based on the portion of the Subscription Period remaining;

  • where you engage third parties to operate alongside our Services (for example, any third-party software systems you wish to integrate with our Platform), those third parties are independent of us and you are responsible for (meaning we will not be liable for) the goods or services they provide, unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing.

  • we may receive a benefit (which may include a referral fee or a commission) should you visit certain third party websites through a link on our Platform, or for featuring certain goods or services on our Platform.

These Terms do not intend to limit your rights and remedies at law, including any of your Consumer Law Rights.

1.2          You must be at least 18 years old to use our Platform.

1.3          Variations: We may amend these Terms at any time, by providing written notice to you. By clicking “I accept” or continuing to use our Platform after the notice or 30 days after notification (whichever date is earlier), you agree to the amended Terms. If you do not agree to the amendment, you may close your Account and cancel your Subscription with effect from the date of the change in these Terms by providing written notice to us. If you cancel your Subscription:

(a)           access to our Platform; and

(b)           access to our specialised burlesque courses (Course)

(collectively, our Services).

  1.  Recreational Waiver

3.1          In the course of exercising or engaging in any recreational activities while accessing our Platform, if you are killed or injured, we will not be liable except to the extent caused by our reckless conduct. A person’s conduct is reckless if the person is aware, or should have reasonably been so, that there was a significant risk that their conduct could result in personal injury and, despite this, engages in the conduct without adequate justification.

3.2          Under the Australian Consumer Law (as set out in Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)), statutory guarantees apply to the supply of certain goods and services. These guarantees mean that we are required to ensure that the recreational services we supply to you:

  • are rendered with due care and skill; and

  • are reasonably fit for any purpose which you, either expressly or by implication, make known to us; and

  • might reasonably be expected to achieve any result you have made known to us.

3.3          Under the Australian Consumer Law, we are entitled to ask you to agree that these statutory guarantees do not apply to you. If you accept these Terms, you will be agreeing that your rights to sue us under the Australian Consumer Law if you are killed or injured because the services provided were not in accordance with these guarantees, are excluded in the way set out in these Terms.

  1.  Account

4.1          You must sign up for an Account in order to access and use our Platform.

(c)           notify us if you become aware of, or have reason to suspect, any unauthorised access to your Account or any logins linked to your Account.

4.3          We may suspend your access to our Services where we reasonably believe there has been any unauthorised access to or use of our Services (such as the unauthorised sharing of login details for our Platform). If we suspend your access to our Services, we will let you know within a reasonable time of doing so, and we will work with you to resolve the matter, or if it cannot be resolved, then we may terminate your Account and your access to our Services will end.

  1.  Subscriptions

5.1          Once you have created your Account you will be prompted to create a Subscription.

5.2          The details, features and limitations of the Subscription, along with the Subscription Fees and Subscription Period will be set out on the Platform.

5.4          You will be billed for any Subscription Fees due at the beginning of each Billing Cycle. Our payments methods will be set out on our Platform. If you choose to pay your Subscription Fees using one of our third-party payment processors, you may need to accept their terms and conditions (if this is the case, these will be set out on our Platform).

5.5          You must not pay, or attempt to pay, any Subscription Fees by fraudulent or unlawful means. If you make payment by debit or credit card, you must be the authorised card holder. If payment is made by direct debit, by providing your bank account details and accepting these Terms, you authorise our nominated third-party payment processor to debit your bank account in accordance with your chosen Subscription, and you confirm that you are either the holder or an authorised signatory of that bank account.

If you wish to cancel your Subscription, you may do so through your Account. Your cancellation will take effect at the end of your current Billing Cycle, and your Subscription will not be renewed. You acknowledge and agree that any discounts applied to your Subscription will cease to apply

5.7         Pausing a Subscription

(a)          You may request to pause your Subscription by providing us with 7 business days’ notice and by contacting us in writing at [email protected] (Pause Request).
(b)         If we accept a Pause Request, you acknowledge and agree that the following conditions apply:
            (1) your Subscription may only be paused for a minimum period equivalent to a full Billing Cycle. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that, for example, you cannot pause your Subscription for part of a month;
            (2) your Subscription may only be paused for a maximum of three months per year in the aggregate; and
            (3) if you wish to pause your Subscription for more than three months per year in the aggregate, you must cancel your Subscription and resubscribe for a Subscription on the Platform.
