PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE CONTINUING. This end-user licence agreement ("EULA") is a legal agreement between you ("you") and Vinehealth Digital Limited (“Vinehealth”) of Kemp House, 152 - 160 City Road, London, EC1V 2NX, United Kingdom ("us" or "we") for the Vinehealth mobile application software, all modules downloaded via the application, streamed via the application, the data supplied with the software, and the associated media ("App"). We licence use of the App to you on the basis of this EULA and subject to any rules or policies applied by any app store provider or operator from whose site ("App store"), you downloaded the App ("App Store Rules"). We do not sell the App to you. We remain the owners of the App at all times.
Operating system requirements
This App is available for products running iOS and Android software. Although the App and any downloaded and streamed modules will reside on your device, you will need internet access in order to download and stream additional modules to the App or to benefit from other functionality and updates.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: BY DOWNLOADING THE APP AND CREATING AN ACCOUNT YOU AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS LICENCE WHICH WILL BIND YOU. The terms of the licence include, in particular, the privacy policy defined in condition 1.5 and limitations on liability in condition 8. If you do not agree to the terms of this licence, we will not license the App to you and you will not be able to access any modules or other functions of the App. By law, as a consumer you have the right, for any reason, to cancel a transaction within 14 days of entering into a contract, such as this licence. However, by agreeing to this licence, you expressly consent to being provided with access to the App straight away, and you acknowledge that you will lose your right to cancel the transaction once you agree to this licence. This does not affect your consumer rights for an app that is defective. You should print a copy of this EULA for future reference.
