Bevan Foundation Subscription

Terms and conditions

The Bevan Foundation greatly values its subscribers. These terms and conditions are to make clear what you can expect from us. When you take out a subscription, it means you agree with these terms and conditions.

Please note that separate arrangements apply to educational establishments and libraries.

Payment

1. Subscriptions are payable in advance, and run for 12 months from the date that the subscription is paid. Subscriptions are not normally pro-rated, unless you wish to upgrade, and are normally non-refundable.
2. The Bevan Foundation reserves the right to decline to provide a subscription without giving a reason. If payment has been made, the subscription will be refunded pro-rata.
3. The Bevan Foundation will normally invoice subscribers one month before their subscription is due for renewal. Payment is due within 30 days of the date of the invoice, after which subscriber benefits will end if the invoice is not paid.
4. Any subscriber discounts must be requested at the time of payment, and are not available retrospectively.
5. The Bevan Foundation may vary the price of a subscription at its discretion, giving at least one calendar month’s notice of changes.

Features

6. Subscribers are responsible for choosing the subscription option that is best for them, and will receive only the features associated with that option. From time to time the Bevan Foundation will remind subscribers of the features available to them, but it is for subscribers to ensure they utilise them.
7. The subscriber is responsible for advising the Bevan Foundation of the details of people included in the subscription and for notifying the Bevan Foundation of any changes in their details, such as name, email address and postal address.
8. The Bevan Foundation will make every effort to provide all the features of your subscription, but we reserve the right to vary benefits due to unforeseen circumstances. We will notify subscribers of any variation.

Content

9. The Bevan Foundation makes every effort to ensure that its outputs are accurate but it cannot be held responsible for any error or inaccuracy, or for the consequences of how subscribers use its outputs.
10. The Foundation is unable to make running updates to reports and publications – sources of data are provided so that users can access updates if they wish.
11. Some subscription options include opportunities to contribute to the Bevan Foundation website, events and other outlets. In doing so, you give permission to the Bevan Foundation to copy, reproduce and distribute your contribution in line with our contributors’ agreement.
12. The Bevan Foundation reserves the right to decline contributions or materials if the content or the organisation conflicts with the charitable status and purpose of the Bevan Foundation.

Intellectual property

13. All materials provided to you as part of your subscription are copyright the Bevan Foundation and subject to the relevant license(s). For ease of reference, works that are exclusive to subscribers can be shared within the subscribing organisation but may not be:
    1. used for commercial purposes
    2. adapted, modified, amended or transformed
    3. used without acknowledging the Bevan Foundation
    4. shared outside your organisation.
14. All other Bevan Foundation outputs are covered by Creative Commons license CC BY-NC-ND, which provides open access subject to non-commercial use, no modifications and acknowledgement of the Bevan Foundation.

Privacy

15. In taking out a subscription you consent to the Foundation processing your details to administer and fulfil your subscription.
16. The Bevan Foundation may also from time to time send you other information about its work and fundraising where we feel this would be of interest to you. We may contact you by post, telephone and/or email where you have provided these details to us.
17. You can opt-out of or change your preferences for communications from us at any time, although you may not then receive some or all of your subscription benefits.
18. The Bevan Foundation takes great care of your personal information. Your details may be held on a third party application or programme to assist our administration (e.g. MailChimp). We will not give or sell them to a third party.

Complaints

19. The Bevan Foundation takes complaints very seriously. If you have a complaint about us we want to hear about it and we will do our best to put it right. Our complaints policy is available on request but in summary you can complain:
    1. Informally – by speaking to a member of staff.
    2. Formally – by putting your complaint in writing by email or post
    3. To one of our regulators i.e. the Fundraising Regulator, the Information Commissioner or the Charity Commission.
20. We are unable to respond to anonymous complaints or matters for which we are not directly responsible.
