Neil Bierbaum and Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd and its coaches/trainers recognize that the participants may share future plans and goals, business affairs, financial, job and personal information. Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd trainers will not at any time, either directly or indirectly, voluntarily use any information for their own benefit, nor will they disclose or communicate this information to a third party.
Copyright and intellectual property
The participant acknowledges that, unless otherwise stated, Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd is the owner of:
- all rights to the intellectual property which include designs, know how, copyright, goodwill and trade marks whether existing now or in the future;
- all documentation, websites, workbooks, manuals and other material used by Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd trainers.
The participant undertakes and commits not to use or reproduce or distribute electronically or through other means any of the material made available to him without the written permission of Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd.
Coaching sessions
Coaching sessions, when offered, must be booked and paid for separately through Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd. Coaching sessions must be taken as a batch and not ad hoc or at random.
Sessions must be booked in a regular time slot in consecutive weeks, or fortnightly, or monthly. Exceptions to those time slots will gladly be made by agreement, but the regular time slots must be booked. 24-hours notice of cancellation is requested, or else sessions will be counted as having been taken. Coaching sessions must be used within the agreed time period plus 50% (eg. if booked over six weeks they must be used within nine weeks); sessions cannot be carried forward indefinitely.
The coach reserves the right to delay the start of the six coaching sessions according to his availability. (In other words, depending on availability, coaching may not start immediately upon the client reaching eligibility.)
The client may request, and the coach may appoint, another suitably qualified coach if it is not possible to match coach and client availability for sessions, or if demand exceeds supply.
Bid process and qualification
The bid assessors' decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
Quality guarantee and termination
Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd and its coaches/trainers are committed to optimal learning results and the achievement of goals by participants. If the participant is not satisfied with any Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd program he/she is entitled to terminate his/her participation and receive a full refund. This refund will be granted if the person can show that he has used the materials, workshops and coaching to the full extent up to that point and that he/she still has not benefited or will not benefit in any way. Requests for refund must be in written form (email is sufficient) to an Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd representative within 24 hours of completion of the two-day course.
Registration and attendance at special events
If attendance on a special program is booked and cancellation is received less than four weeks before the start of a program Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd will charge 20% of the tuition, less than seven days before the start of the program 50% and less than three days before the start of the program 100%, except that the participant provides someone else to take over the registration. Any materials received are to be returned at the participant's expense.
Facilitation cancellation
Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd reserves the right to cancel or postpone workshops, courses and special events although this will not be done without good reason. The participant will be informed in time and the registration will be transferred to the next available workshop/course/event.
Salvadorian clause
In the case that one or more of these terms become disempowered, the other terms shall not be impacted by that. Life Mechanics (Pty) Ltd and the participant shall agree upon a substitute term, which comes closest to the discontinued term.
Court of jurisdiction
Cape Town.
