PROMOTIONS AND DISCOUNTED SERVICES AND/OR GOODS

BY SIGNING UP AND REGISTERING TO MAKE USE OF OUR SERVICES AND/OR PRODUCTS, YOU ARE ALSO “OPTING-IN” TO RECEIVE ANY PROMOTIONAL MATERIAL, OUR NEWSLETTER AS WELL AS OUR GENERAL NEWSLETTER (YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF THESE NEWSLETTERS AT ANY TIME).

OPTING OUT OF THESE NEWSLETTERS AFTER PURCHASE WILL NOT AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE GOODS PURCHASED.

From time to time, we may offer certain promotional services and/or goods at discounted prices as part of a Promotion, or a Bundle Deal which are explained below (each a “Deal”). These will be subject to certain conditions (as set out in these Terms and/or the Website), which define the scope of the Deal. If you buy a product within the scope of a Deal, you will pay the discounted price for that product (the “Deal Price”).

However, if you buy a product in a manner that falls outside of the scope of a Deal, then you will pay the then-current (non-Deal) selling price on our Website(s) and/or User System (the “Normal Price”), for each product that falls outside the scope of the Deal.

For example: if you buy more than one service and/or product in a promotion or Bundle deal, you will pay the Deal Price for the first service and/or product, but the Normal Price for all services and/or products thereafter. Alternatively, if you buy a service and/or product in combination with any other service and/or product that together do not constitute a Bundle Deal, you will pay the Normal Price for all such products falling outside the scope of the relevant Deal.

Bundle Deals
