Only continue to use our Services if you agree with these Terms and Conditions, and if you acknowledge and understand how we will use the information that you will provide to us.
We may revise these terms at any time. From time to time, updates to the Persona App may be issued through your app store provider. Depending on the update, you may not be able to use the Persona App until you have downloaded the latest version of the app and accepted any new terms.

5. Our Experts
We engage a range of subject matter experts from time to time based on the content we develop and promote. Profiles of our experts can be found in the Persona App and on our Website. You acknowledge that our experts are practitioners may not be subject to our instruction or control beyond their limited engagement to work with us in developing and promoting the content that drives our Services. In promoting our experts as part of our online and mobile assets, you acknowledge that we are not endorsing the services they provide in their independent capacities and that we make no warranties or representation about their independent service offering. To the extent you engage directly with our experts outside of the Services we provide, you agree that we will have no responsibility or obligation to you in relation to any such engagement or the associated results.
We may replace our Experts at our discretion and your use, affinity, or engagement with an Expert’s specific content does not create an obligation for us to maintain a particular Expert or shall act in any way to restrict our ability to make decisions about our Services.
6. Your account and profile
You may have to create an account and provide us with a password before you can use some of our Services. Where an account is required, you must be authorised to take all actions that are performed on or through your account.

7. Fees and payment
Some Services will be free, others will require payment. Some Services may be free for a period, but then require a payment which may be taken automatically by your chosen payment method. We will always make any payment terms clear to you before you sign up for a paid Service. Any such payment terms shall be incorporated into and form part of these Terms and Conditions. When purchasing services such as Persona Plus you may make your purchase through one of our Websites or from an app store provider such as the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. If from an app store provider, in addition to these terms, you will be subject to the terms of the app store provider.
At our discretion, we may change the price and nature of a paid Service, but if you are already paying for that Service, we will always give you notice should the price change. We accept no responsibility for any losses you may incur by failing to change or cancel a subscription after we have informed you of any changes to pricing of Services.
Where you have purchased a subscription, your subscription to our paid Service will be automatically renewed at the end of each subscription period unless you cancel it. If you do not cancel before the end of your current subscription period, you will be charged in advance for the next subscription period. Auto-renewing subscriptions can be modified or cancelled by changing your settings with the appropriate app store provider, or if you purchased the services directly from our Website, from within the Persona App, or by contacting us at support@personagrowth.com. If you cancel a subscription you cannot claim a refund for the period remaining until the end of the subscription period in which you cancelled.
If you think that you may be entitled to a refund for Services and you purchased those Services from our Website or from within one the Persona App, you can contact us at support@personagrowth.com. If you purchased the Services from an app store provider then you should contact that app store provider as we will be unable to process such refund requests.

16. General
These terms and the relationship between you and Persona shall be governed by the laws of England without regard to any conflict of law provisions of any jurisdiction. Both you and Persona agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts, except that Persona may seek injunctive relief in any jurisdiction in order to enforce its rights under these terms.
We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations under these terms that is caused by any act or event beyond our reasonable control, including failure of public or private telecommunications networks (“Event Outside Our Control”). If an Event Outside Our Control takes place that affects the performance of our obligations under these terms of use:
our obligations under these terms shall be suspended for the duration of the Event Outside Our Control; and
we will use our reasonable endeavours to find a solution by which our obligations under these terms may be performed despite the Event Outside Our Control.
No person other than you and Persona shall have any rights under these terms in relation to your use of the Services. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under these terms. You may only transfer your rights or obligations under these terms if we agree in writing.
Any failure of or delay by Persona to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the terms shall not constitute a waiver of this right or provision. If any provision of the terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavour to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the terms shall remain in full force and effect.
You agree that these terms represent the entire understanding between you and Persona in respect of your relationship with Persona. These terms supersede any previous agreements between you and Persona including any previous version of these terms.
