A legal disclaimer
As a Mental Wellness Coach, it's important to establish the guidelines and legal boundaries that govern the interactions between clients and this website. The Terms & Conditions (T&C) document outlines the rules and regulations for using this platform. It is crucial for both the clients and the coach to understand and agree upon these terms to ensure a harmonious and respectful coaching relationship.
However, it's essential to note that the T&C provided on this page are for general informational purposes only. They should not be considered as a substitute for professional legal advice tailored to the specific needs of this coaching practice. Each coaching engagement is unique, and the T&C should be personalized to reflect the nature of the coaching services and the expectations of both the coach and the client.
Terms & Conditions - the basics
Having said that, Terms and Conditions (“T&C”) are a set of legally binding terms defined by you, as the owner of this website. The T&C set forth the legal boundaries governing the activities of the website visitors, or your customers, while they visit or engage with this website. The T&C are meant to establish the legal relationship between the site visitors and you as the website owner.
T&C should be defined according to the specific needs and nature of each website. For example, a website offering products to customers in e-commerce transactions requires T&C that are different from the T&C of a website only providing information (like a blog, a landing page, and so on).
T&C provide you as the website owner the ability to protect yourself from potential legal exposure, but this may differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, so make sure to receive local legal advice if you are trying to protect yourself from legal exposure.
What to include in the T&C document
Generally speaking, T&C often address these types of issues: Who is allowed to use the website; the possible payment methods; a declaration that the website owner may change his or her offering in the future; the types of warranties the website owner gives his or her customers; a reference to issues of intellectual property or copyrights, where relevant; the website owner’s right to suspend or cancel a member’s account; and much, much more.
