4.      Business Customers and Consumers

4.1       These Terms of Sale are exclusively relevant to business customers in the UK only. They do not apply to individual consumers who acquire Digital Content for personal purposes, unrelated to their trade, business, craft, or profession. If you are a consumer, it is advisable to contact us for guidance before proceeding with a purchase.

4.2     These Terms of Sale form the complete agreement between you and Us regarding the purchase of Digital Content. You understand that you have not placed reliance on any statement, representation, warranty, assurance, or promise made by Us or on Our behalf that is not explicitly outlined in these Terms of Sale. Furthermore, you agree not to make any claims for innocent or negligent misrepresentation or negligent misstatement based on any statements herein.

5.      Digital Content, Pricing and Availability

5.1     We may from time to time change Our prices.  Price changes will not affect any purchases you already made but will apply to any subsequent purchases.

5.2     Occasional adjustments may be applied to specific Digital Content, such as updates to comply with alterations in applicable laws or regulatory requirements, or to address technical or security concerns. These modifications are not intended to substantially modify the fundamental attributes of the Digital Content and typically should not impact your utilisation of it. If any alteration is implemented that could impact your use of the Digital Content, pertinent information will be communicated to you.

5.3     In cases where updates are applied to Digital Content, the content will still align with the description provided by us at the time of your purchase. It's important to note, however, that this does not preclude us from improving the Digital Content, thereby surpassing the features initially described.

5.4     We make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all prices shown on Our Site are correct at the time of going online. Price changes will not affect any order that you have already placed (please note sub-Clause 5.7 regarding VAT, however).

5.5     All prices are checked by Us before We accept your order.  In the unlikely event that We have shown incorrect pricing information, We will contact you in writing to inform you of the mistake.  If the correct price is lower than that shown when you made your order, We will simply charge you the lower amount and continue processing your order. If the correct price is higher, We will give you the option to purchase at the correct price or to cancel your order (or the affected part of it).  We will not proceed with processing your order in this case until you respond.  If We do not receive a response from you within 7 days, we will treat your order as cancelled and notify you of this in writing.

5.6     If We discover an error in the price or purchase after your order is processed, We will inform you immediately and make all reasonable efforts to correct the error.  You may, however, have the right to cancel the Contract if this happens.  If We inform you of such an error and you do wish to cancel the Contract, please refer to sub-Clause 11.3.

6.      Orders – How Contracts Are Formed

6.3     No section of Our Site is considered a contractual offer open for acceptance. When you place an order to make a purchase, it serves as a contractual offer that We may, at Our sole discretion, choose to accept. Our acceptance is communicated by sending you a Purchase Confirmation via email. The formation of a legally binding Contract between Us and you occurs only upon Our dispatch of the Purchase Confirmation.

6.4     Purchase Confirmation shall contain the following information:
