SERVICES

Basic features
Your registration to the Services allows instant access to basic features available free of charge.
Basic features and functionalities notably include the creation of your account profile, certain search functionalities, browsing other user’s profiles and access to some events and activities. Communicating with other users requires a subscription.
-
Chargeable Services
We offer users the option to access additional features through paid services. Pricing may vary depending on factors such as subscription duration, special offers and promotions.
Purchases may consist of recurring subscriptions and/or one-off payments (collectively, “Purchases”), which provide access to enhanced features and functionalities. The details of such paid services (“Chargeable Services”) are made available on the Services prior to the completion of any Purchase.
From time to time, we may modify or discontinue certain types of Purchases.
6.3 Personalised Services
Our objective is to assist you in discovering and connecting with other members on our Services who may be of interest to you. To achieve this, we may provide certain features, whether paid or free, that utilise information about your activity on the Services or that enhance the content you provide, as further described in clause 9.2 of these Terms. By using the Services, you consent to such information and content being processed, including through the use of artificial intelligence systems.

RULES GOVERNING PURCHASES
-
General
Depending on the method by which you access the Services (e.g., desktop or mobile web), Purchases may be processed through direct billing methods supplied by third party providers such as PayPal and Worldpay.
When you choose to make a Purchase, you will be asked to confirm the transaction with the relevant payment provider. Your selected payment method, whether a payment card or a third-party account (your “Payment Method”), will then be charged at the price displayed for the Purchase(s) you have selected. By proceeding, you authorise the applicable third-party provider (e.g., PayPal or Worldpay) to process the charge.
A Purchase is deemed confirmed once the financial transaction has been authorised and verified by your bank or third-party payment account.
-
Subscription Auto-Renewal and Automatic Payments
If you purchase a recurring subscription (a “Subscription”), your Payment Method will be billed for the duration of the current Subscription term. At the end of each Subscription term, the Subscription will automatically renew for an equivalent period, unless otherwise specified at the time of Purchase or unless you cancel auto-renewal in accordance with these Terms.
By purchasing a Subscription, you agree to pay all recurring charges for the entire Subscription period and any subsequent renewal periods until you cancel auto-renewal.
Some Subscriptions may be offered at a reduced price for an initial period (“Introductory Offer”), after which the Subscription will automatically renew at the standard rate, unless cancelled.
Your Payment Method details will be securely stored by the payment provider (e.g., PayPal or Worldpay) and used for renewal payments. You may update your Payment Method at any time. By accepting these Terms, you authorise us to process renewal payments (or instalments, if applicable) using the updated Payment Method.
Any objections to payments already processed must be directed to our Customer Service team at the contact details set out in the “Requests and Complaints” section. Please note that cancelling a payment already made does not relieve you of the obligation to pay any outstanding amounts owed for the current Subscription period, provided you have cancelled auto-renewal in accordance with these Terms.
-
Right to cancel
Subscriptions commence upon Purchase confirmation. In accordance with applicable law, you have the right to cancel a Purchase within fourteen (14) days from the day following the Purchase. To exercise this right, contact us at the email address specified in the “Requests and Complaints” section.
Refunds will be issued within fourteen (14) days of receipt of your cancellation request and processed via the same Payment Method used for the original Purchase.
If you access your account and use the Services before the expiry of the fourteen (14) day cancellation period, your first login shall constitute an express request for immediate access to the Services and you will be charged accordingly.
Purchases via Apple/Google Platforms
If you purchased a Subscription or Paid Service through Apple’s App Store or Google Play, cancellations and refunds are managed exclusively by Apple or Google under their respective terms and conditions.

All amounts charged to your Payment Method will be retained, and your Subscription will remain active until the end of the then-current term.
Deleting the application from your device does not cancel your Subscription. To terminate auto-renewal, you must log in to your account and follow the instructions provided.
Once auto-renewal has been cancelled, you may continue to use the Subscription until the end of its current term. Any outstanding instalments for that term remain due and payable. Upon expiry, access to paid features will cease, though you will retain access to the free features.
We reserve the right to cancel the automatic renewal of your Subscription at any time, for example, due to changes in our offerings. Should this occur, you will be notified in advance.
8.3 Account suspension
If you no longer wish to receive messages or have your profile visible to other users, you may request suspension of your profile at any time through your account settings. Suspension is temporary, does not cancel or extend any Subscription (including renewals), and does not affect your payment obligations. You may reactivate your profile at any time.

You may close your account on the Services at any time by following the instructions in your account settings. If you encounter difficulties, you may contact our Customer Care team for assistance please refer to our Community Guidelines.
Account closure will take effect on the next business day following your request. From that point, you will no longer be able to access your account or use any associated Purchases.
