    2. If our supply of the Services and/or Products is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any Products you have paid for but not received.
    3. A Product will be your responsibility from the time we deliver the Product to the address you gave us or you or a carrier organised by you collect it from us. You own a Product once we have received payment in full.

  12. YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE PURCHASE CONTRACT
    1. Your rights when you end the contract for purchase of Services and/or Products (“Purchase Contract”) will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract. Termination of the individual Purchase Contracts will not affect your registration with our Platform.
    2. If you are ending a Purchase Contract for a reason set out at 12.2.1 to 12.2.5 below, the Purchase Contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any Services and/or Products which have not been provided. You may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:
      1. we have told you about an upcoming change to the Service and/or Product or these terms which you do not agree to;
      2. we have told you about an error in the price or description of the Service and/or Product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
      3. there is a risk that supply of the Service and/or Products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
      4. we have suspended supply of the Service and/or Products for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than 45 days; or
      5. you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.
    3. For most products bought online you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. If you bought our Products, you have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the Products to change your mind.
    4. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of:
      1. digital products after you have started to use these (including our questionnaires) as part of the Services;
      2. Services, once these have been completed, even if the cancellation period is still running;
      3. Products sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you receive them; and
      4. any Products which become mixed inseparably with other items after their delivery.
    5. Even if we are not at fault and you do not have a right to change your mind, you can still end the Purchase Contract before it is completed, but you may have to pay us compensation. If you want to end a Purchase Contract before it is completed where we are not at fault and you have not changed your mind, just contact us to let us know. The Purchase Contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for Services and/or Products not provided but we may deduct from that refund (or, if you have not made an advance payment, charge you) reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your ending the contract.

      1. If your digital content is faulty, you’re entitled to a repair or a replacement.

      3. If you can show the fault has damaged your device and we haven’t used reasonable care and skill, you may be entitled to a repair or compensation

      3. If you haven't agreed a time beforehand, it must be carried out within a reasonable time.
    4. If you wish to exercise your legal rights to reject Products you must post them back to us at our cost.
  16. PRICE AND PAYMENT
    1. The price of the Services and/or Product (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages on the Platform when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Services and/or Product advised to you is correct but it is always possible that some of the Services and/ or Products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Services and/or Product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Services and/or Product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order.
    2. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the Service/ Product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Service / Product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
    3. We accept payment with all major credit or debit cards. When you must pay depends on what you are buying:
      1. you must pay for the Products before we dispatch them. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch the Products to you.
      2. For the Services (including digital content), you must pay for the Services before you download them or before we begin providing the Services to you.
    4. All payments are independently processed through third-party service providers. Omnos and the Platform do not collect any payment information. We only receive a notification once payment has been successfully completed. In the event that payment through the available methods fails or is refused by our payment service provider, we are under no obligation to fulfil the purchase or order, and any costs or fees resulting from the failed payment shall be borne by you.
  17. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU
    1. If we fail to comply with these Customer Terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
    2. We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the Products and/or Services and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.
    3. If defective digital content which we have supplied as part of the Services damages a device or digital content belonging to you and this is caused by our failure to use reasonable care and skill we will either repair the damage or pay you compensation. However, we will not be liable for damage which you could have avoided by following our advice to apply an update offered to you free of charge or for damage which was caused by you failing to correctly follow installation instructions or to have in place the minimum system requirements advised by us.
    4. Our Services and Products are only supplied for domestic and private use. If you use the Services and/or Products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, loss of business opportunity, or any other indirect or consequential losses. Our maximum aggregate liability to you for any business losses shall be no more than £100.
    5. We are not responsible for any third party services provided to you, including any follow-up appointment made as a consequence of the Results received as part of the Services, irrespective of whether we provided you with the follow-up pathway.
  18. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS
    1. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation.
    2. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing. If you purchase a Test Kit and gift it to someone else, the rights in relation to that Test Kit are transferred at the point of the new user registering the Test Kit in their name and creating an account on the Platform.
    3. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
    4. Each of the paragraphs of these Customer Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
    5. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Service and/or Products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
    6. These terms are governed by Scots law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the Scottish courts. If you are a consumer and live in England you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you are a consumer and live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.

Addendum 1 - Blood tests

This is the Addendum No 1 to the Omnos Customer Terms of Service

This addendum applies where you order and use a blood sample Test Kit (“Blood Test Kit”). Blood Test Kits are provided by Omnos and not a Laboratory.

  1. Blood Testing Process
    1. We will endeavour to post the Blood Test Kit to you on the next working day after we have accepted your order. The Blood Test Kit is for you to collect your own blood sample in accordance with the blood collection protocols provided, and contains instructions on how to submit your blood sample along with a request form. You must register your kit online and complete your personal details on the form provided entitled ‘Lab Requisition Form’, and also on the blood sample(s). You acknowledge that blood samples that are not fully and correctly labelled cannot be processed. It is not possible to make changes to the request form once it has been sent to the Laboratory.
    2. The validity of the Blood Test Kit will expire after 60 days of delivery to you, so you are required to collect and post your blood sample to the Laboratory at the address provided within that period.
    3. You acknowledge that test outcomes depend on the quality of the blood sample provided by you, so you agree to adhere to the blood collection protocols provided.
    4. If you do not follow these protocols a defective or partial test result may occur. We may, at our discretion, give you the opportunity of re-testing if a partial result is reported by the Laboratory, and/or similarly if your blood sample was clotted at the time of receipt by the Laboratory.
    5. We anticipate that the Report will typically be available within 5-7 working days from the date your Blood Test Kit is received by the Laboratory.
  2. Cancellation of blood testing
    1. Where you have cancelled your purchase in accordance with these Customer Terms, if you have not sent your blood sample to the Laboratory for testing before the date you decide to cancel the purchase, we will refund you the relevant Service price less £6.00. The £6.00 is used to cover the costs of the Blood Test Kit and postage. To be eligible for a return, your test kit must be unused with complete components. Any components sealed for hygiene or health protection reasons must not be tampered with.
    2. All other circumstances will be assessed on a case by case basis. In any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of a reimbursement for a cancelled purchase.
    3. Apart from your cancellation rights above:
      1. if you inform us and can demonstrate that the Blood Test Kit received is, within reason, damaged or defective, you will be entitled to a replacement or, where we are unable to send you a replacement Blood Test Kit within a reasonable time, a refund of the relevant purchase price; and
      2. if the Service is not otherwise carried out to the standard outlined in these Customer Terms, you can require repeat performance or, where we, the Laboratory or an Omnos Practitioner are unable to perform the repeat Services within a reasonable time, a refund of an appropriate amount.
    4. We may at our sole discretion deduct or charge you a reasonable amount as compensation for costs we, the Laboratory and/or an Omnos Practitioner have incurred or will incur as a result of ending the contract.
  3. Your Acknowledgments
    1. By placing your order, you agree and represent to us that: (i) you are legally capable of entering into this binding contract between you and us; and that you are at least 18 years old and you have completed an accurate and up-to-date Lab Requisition Form identifying the blood sample as one taken from yourself.
    2. We shall have no liability for any loss or damage caused by errors or omissions in any information provided by you in connection with the Services, or any action taken by us, the Laboratory, the Medical Review team or an Omnos Practitioner at your direction. Omissions include pertinent medical information without which an Omnos Practitioner is unable to review your results fully.
    3. By placing your order, you acknowledge the potential impacts and risks of taking your own blood sample, and that you are proceeding on the basis that you accept full responsibility for any outcomes or consequences that may arise from this.
    4. You acknowledge and agree that the Services are not a substitute for actual medical diagnosis or consultation with a doctor, and that the information contained in the Report does not constitute medical advice and/or recommendations for medical treatment regarding any aspect of your health, medicine intake, nutrition or lifestyle.
    5. You acknowledge that the Report and that the information contained in it may not be comprehensive (including information which could be obtained through blood testing but was not identified in your Report for any reason).
    6. You acknowledge and agree that in rare cases, viable blood samples cannot always be taken from the blood sample actually provided. Services will be deemed successfully performed if the Medical Review team believes there is sufficient information in the blood test results to produce a Report, in which event no further tests will be carried out.
    7. You acknowledge and agree that minor inter-laboratory variability exists. Consequently, where minor results variability is seen, for example upon tracking an individual test over time, such minor variability is tolerated and you assume overall responsibility for overseeing your long-term trends. You also agree that on occasion, because of inter-laboratory variability, minor changes may throw two adjacent test points narrowly inside and outside of ‘normal’ reference range but are essentially indicating insignificant variation.
