If you are displeased with our services, please read our Refunds section and act accordingly.

By using our service you forfeit your rights to take legal action against De-Una or our associates, employees, agents, owners, or other representatives for these types of discrimination.

Customer Etiquette (Student Code of Conduct)

As a De-Una user, customers agree are expected to be polite and follow common etiquette when taking a class and/or dealing with anyone from the De-Una team.

A customer must:

  • be fully clothed during classes
  • when taking a class, act with basic manners (no burping, nose picking, foul language etc)
  • when taking a class, have the video camera turned on at all times (unless requested otherwise by a Journey partner)
  • when taking a class, not be abusive to the Journey Partner, or make comments that could be deemed as offensive (including sexual, religious, or racial comments)
  • when taking a class, avoid discussing inappropriate topics that could make your Journey partner feel uncomfortable (including topics on politics, religion, and sex)
  • when taking a class, give full attention to the Journey partner – no accepting a call and then leaving for half the class
  • when taking a class, no drinking alcohol. Eating may be permitted, but only if it doesn’t cause the student or journey partner to be distracted
  • when taking a class, try to be in a room with minimum outside noise or distractions
  • not solicit personal information from any De-Una journey partner, including their phone number, social media profiles, home address etc
  • be on time and take the classes they request. If a customer cannot attend a class, it should be cancelled as far in advance as possible.

If the customer breaks this code of conduct, De-una will issue one formal warning. If a second warning is issued, then De-Una reserves the right to expel the student from De-Una, ban them from future classes, and refuse refund requests.

In no event shall De-Una’s liability for any damage claim exceed the amount paid by you to De-Una for the transaction giving rise to such damage claim.

Without limiting the foregoing, De-Una do not represent or warrant that the information on the webite is accurate, complete, reliable, useful, timely or current or that our website will operate without interruption or error.

Recording of Classes for Training Purposes

Occasionally, our journey planners will record your classes. Any class where you share personal information or otherwise information that is obviously only intended for the Journey partners will not be recorded, or, if it was filmed, will be deleted.

The purpose of these recordings is for training. We are constantly working on improving, and having example classes is extremely helpful in this regard. These recordings will never be published, public, or in any way used outside of internal training without your express permission.

In addition, we may use these recordings to create a short progress video for you. By having one or two classes per month recorded, we can edit them together over a longer timeline, so you have a video of your progress. If we create this, it is for you only to do what you wish with, and we will not share it without your express permission.

Any student who wishes to opt-out of being recorded can do so by emailing info@deunaspanishschool.com and a note will be added to their account to ensure that from that point, no future classes will be recorded.

Limited License

De-Una grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use our Website in order for you to make purchases of Spanish tutoring services, access to Spanish e-learning content, and other features of our e-learning product through our Website, strictly in accordance with our Legal Terms.

Subscriptions

Our “Monthly” subscription is paid in monthly instalments. For each month that your monthly subscription is active, you acknowledge and agree that De-Una is authorized to charge the same credit card as was used for the initial subscription fee or other payment method in the amount of the current monthly subscription fee as of the time of renewal. The monthly renewal subscription fees will continue to be billed to the Payment Method you provided, automatically until cancelled. You must cancel your subscription before it renews each month in order to avoid billing of the next month’s subscription fee to the Payment Method you provided.

Our “Yearly” subscription is paid for by an upfront one-off payment with automatic annual renewals. You acknowledge and agree that De-Una is authorized to charge the Payment Method used for (i ) the initial annual subscription fee at the rate secured at the time of purchase, and (ii) the renewal subscription fee(s) at the non-discounted rate in effect at the time of any such renewal. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of the renewal subscription fee to the Payment Method you provided.

Refunds

We offer 100% refunds, for the first 14 calendar days from the date you first sign up. De-Una does not allow students to create duplicate accounts and this refund policy is only valid on a student’s first account.

Only De-Una customers who are unhappy with the service within the first 14 days are eligible for a refund. Before issuing a refund, we will ask customers to explain what elements of De-Una they are unhappy with. This helps us gather feedback in order to continually improve the service we offer.

We process refunds through our payment processor, you must provide us with an email address, which we will use to send your refund. Failure to provide us this email address within 60 days of refund request will result in your forfeiture of the refund

14 calendar days after the initial sign-up date, or after 5 lessons with a journey partner we do NOT offer refunds. We have hard costs that prevent us from offering this.

Process of a refund may result in your account being deleted.

If you request a refund within the first 14 days and you later decide to purchase our services again, you are NOT eligible for any type of refund at any point of time for any reason. We reserve the right to deny customers who have been issued refunds access to the De-Una platform in the future. This is to prevent abuse of our refund system.
