Rescheduling/Late Attendance

• I value your time and mine so please give me 24 hours notice if you need to reschedule. All sessions that are cancelled with less than 24 hours notice will be forfeited unless there was an emergency. Arriving late will result in the length of our session being cut short – please be on time 🙂

 

Refund Policy

• As required under Australian Consumer Law, I guarantee that the Services I supply to you and will be supplied within a reasonable time; are rendered with due care and skill; fit for the purpose that I advertise, or that you have told me you are acquiring the Services for or for a result which you have told me you wish the Services achieve, unless I consider and disclose that this purpose is not achievable.

• I provide refunds to the extent required under Australian Consumer Law. I do not provide refunds for any additional reasons, including that there is no refund for a change of mind.

 

Confidentiality

• The Mentor promises the Client that all confidential information provided by the Client to the Mentor will be kept strictly confidential, and will only be disclosed with the Client’s consent, or as required by law.

• Throughout the working relationship, the Mentor will engage in direct and personal conversations. The Mentor seeks to be honest and straightforward in asking questions and making requests. The Client understands that the power of the mentoring relationship is affected by the Client, and the Client agrees to commit to a powerful mentoring relationship. If the Client believes the mentoring is not working as desired, the Client will communicate that belief and take action to return the power to the mentoring relationship.

 

Feedback and dispute resolution

• Your feedback is important to me. I seek to resolve your concerns quickly and effectively. If you have any feedback or questions, please contact me.

• If there is a dispute between us, we agree to the following dispute resolution procedure:

(a) The complainant must tell the respondent in writing, the nature of the dispute, what outcome the complainant wants and what action the complainant thinks will settle the dispute. We agree to meet in good faith to seek to resolve the dispute by agreement between them.

(b) If we cannot agree how to resolve the dispute, any party may refer the matter to a mediator. If the parties cannot agree on who the mediator should be, the complainant will ask the Law Society of South Australia to appoint a mediator. The mediator will decide the time and place for mediation. We must attend the mediation recommended by the mediator, in good faith, to seek to resolve the dispute through mediation or other alternative dispute resolution processes.

• Any attempts made by the parties to resolve a dispute pursuant to this clause shall be without prejudice to any other rights or entitlements of the parties under these Terms, by law or in equity.
