Acceptable use policy

This Acceptable Use Policy sets out the content standards that apply when you upload content to my website, make contact with other users on my website, link to my website, or interact with my website in any other way.

Prohibited Uses  

You may use my website only for lawful purposes. You may not use my website:

  • in any way that breaches any applicable local, national or international law or regulation;

  • in any way that is unlawful or fraudulent, or has any unlawful or fraudulent purpose or effect;

  • for the purpose of harming or attempting to harm minors in any way;

  • to send, knowingly receive, upload, download, use or re-use any material which does not comply with my content standards below;

  • to transmit, or procure the sending of, any unsolicited or unauthorised advertising or promotional material or any other form of similar solicitation (spam);

  • to knowingly transmit any data, send or upload any material that contains viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time-bombs, keystroke loggers, spyware, adware or any other harmful programs or similar computer code designed to adversely affect the operation of any computer software or hardware.

You also agree not to access without authority, interfere with, damage or disrupt:

  • any part of my website;

  • any equipment or network on which my website is stored;

  • any software used in the provision of my website; or

  • any equipment or network or software owned or used by any third party.

Interactive Services  

I may from time to time provide interactive services on my website, including, without limitation:

  • chat rooms;

  • bulletin boards;

  • blog posts;

(jointly the “interactive services”).

Where I do provide any interactive service, I will provide clear information to you about the kind of service offered, if it is moderated and what form of moderation is used (including whether it is human or technical).

I will do my best to assess any possible risks for users (and in particular, for children) from third parties when they use any interactive service provided on my website, and I will decide in each case whether it is appropriate to use moderation of the relevant service (including what kind of moderation to use) in the light of those risks. However, I am under no obligation to oversee, monitor or moderate any interactive service I provide on my website, and I expressly exclude my liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of any interactive service by a user in contravention of my content standards, whether the service is moderated or not.

The use of any of my interactive services by a minor is subject to the consent of their parent or guardian. I advise parents who permit their children to use an interactive service that it is important that they communicate with their children about their safety online, as moderation is not foolproof. Minors who are using any interactive service should be made aware of the potential risks to them.

Where I moderate an interactive service, I will normally provide you with a means of contacting the moderator, should a concern or difficulty arise.

Content Standards  

These Content Standards apply to any and all material which you contribute to my website (“Contribution”), and to any interactive services associated with it.

The Content Standards must be complied with in spirit as well as to the letter. The Standards apply to each part of any Contribution as well as to its whole.

I will determine, in my absolute discretion, whether a Contribution breaches the Content Standards.

A Contribution must:

  • be accurate (where it states facts);

  • be genuinely held (where it states opinions);

  • comply with the law applicable in England and Wales and in any country from which it is posted.

A Contribution must not:

  • be defamatory of any person;

  • be obscene, offensive, hateful or inflammatory;

  • promote sexually explicit material;

  • promote violence;

  • promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation or age;

  • infringe any copyright, database right or trademark of any other person;

  • be likely to deceive any person;

  • breach any legal duty owed to a third party, such as a contractual duty or a duty of confidence;

  • promote any illegal activity;

  • be in contempt of court;

  • be threatening, abuse or invade another’s privacy, or cause annoyance, inconvenience or needless anxiety;

  • be likely to harass, upset, embarrass, alarm or annoy any other person;

  • impersonate any person, or misrepresent your identity or affiliation with any person;

  • give the impression that the Contribution emanates from me or my company, if this is not the case;

  • advocate, promote, incite any party to commit, or assist any unlawful or criminal act such as (by way of example only) copyright infringement or computer misuse;

  • contain a statement which you know or believe, or have reasonable grounds for believing, that members of the public to whom the statement is, or is to be, published are likely to understand as a direct or indirect encouragement or other inducement to the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism;

  • contain any advertising or promote any services or web links to other websites.

Breach Of This Policy  

When I consider that a breach of this Acceptable Use Policy has occurred, I may take such action as I deem appropriate.

Failure to comply with this Acceptable Use Policy constitutes a material breach of the Website Terms and Conditions upon which you are permitted to use my website, and may result in my taking all or any of the following actions:

  • immediate, temporary or permanent withdrawal of your right to use my website;

  • immediate, temporary or permanent removal of any Contribution uploaded by you to my website;

  • issue of a warning to you;

  • legal proceedings against you for reimbursement of all costs on an indemnity basis (including, but not limited to, reasonable administrative and legal costs) resulting from the breach;

  • further legal action against you;

  • disclosure of such information to law enforcement authorities as I reasonably feel is necessary or as required by law.

I exclude my liability for all action I may take in response to breaches of this Acceptable Use Policy. The actions I may take are not limited to those described above, and I may take any other action I reasonably deem appropriate.

Which country’s laws apply to any disputes?  

If you are a customer, please note that these terms of use, their subject matter and their formation, are governed by English law. You and I both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction except that if you are a resident of Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.

If you are a business, these terms of use, their subject matter and their formation (and any non-contractual disputes or claims) are governed by English law. I both agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Refund of services

All services can be refunded within 24 hours of purchasing. After this no refunds are accepted. If you would like to transfer the purchased service to a gift voucher for the same service please contact hello@nurturewithlydia.com. You can only transfer your original purchase to a gift voucher of the same service. 

Late cancellations & no shows

All services require a mutual agreement between the customer and Nurture With Lydia regarding a time, date and choice of communication (telephone, zoom or in person) for the appointment, which will be agreed via email. If the customer cancels within 48 hours of the agreed time and date or does not turn up to the appointment they will not be able to reschedule their appointment. If they would like a new appointment they need to purchase a new one. If the customer needs to reschedule their appointment they can do so as long as it is more than 48 hours before their original appointment.

If the customer is late to their appointment, I will do my best to accommodate but, if I am unable to, then their appointment will still finish at the original agreed time. I advise all customers to be on time to their appointment.

Gift Vouchers

All of my services are available to purchase as a gift voucher. Within 24 hours after purchasing you will be emailed a digital gift voucher containing your unique gift voucher code. All gift vouchers are valid for one year from the purchase date. Gift vouchers cannot be swapped or substituted for a different service.

You must treat your gift voucher information as confidential. Do not share your unique gift voucher code with anyone but the recipient. I accept no responsibility for the misuse of a voucher due to improper care of the voucher code.

To use the voucher, please email hello@nurturewithlydia.com

If someone purchases a gift voucher as a present, they can choose for the voucher to be directly emailed to the intended recipient alongside a personal message. All messages must be in accordance with my Content Standards listed above. Failure to comply with my Content Standards will result in the gift voucher being sent directly to the purchaser instead of the intended recipient.

I will only use the intended recipient’s personal details, such as their name and email address, to send the gift voucher to them under legitimate interest. View my full privacy policy here.

Appointment availability

When you purchase a service you will be emailed the available appointment slots over the next two weeks. If you require an appointment at a later date you can request this once I have emailed you the initial available dates. Appointment slots are filled on a first come first served basis so I advise you to respond to my email and confirm your appointment as quickly as possible.

Follow up calls

Follow up calls are available to purchase for previous customers only.

Follow up calls can be purchased within six weeks of the initial appointment. If the customer purchased email support, the follow up call can be purchased within six weeks of their last email communication with me. After this six week period a follow up call will no longer be available and the customer will have to purchase a new product at full price.
