Website Purchases
- All payment processing information for our online shop is processed through a third party payment gateway provider – Stripe. Fantom Factory Limited does not collate, process or hold any of this data.
- Website purchases through our online shop are for eLearning course licence keys. Refunds will only be considered, if a purchased licence key has not been redeemed through enrolment by an eLearning account. Once a key has been redeemed, the provided digital services have been delivered and the learner account has full access to the ‘digital goods’.
- All accounts created on the Site are related to eLearning enrolment only and are not connected to any purchases or financial transactions related to the sale of the eLearning courses in our online shop. We hold no purchase accounts and all financial queries regarding transactions should be directed to the payment gateway provider – Stripe.
- Each course licence key is intended for one person to use only. Enrolment using a licence key is linked to individual eLearning accounts and must not be used in any other capacity.

Section C – Software Services
Our responsibilities:
- We will strive to provide tailored and objective advice in your best interest.
- We will always aim to complete any *agreed work, provided that all requirements on your side have been fulfilled and barring any extenuating circumstances (natural disaster, emergencies, medical etc), or any unforeseen circumstances out of our control. Should we be unable to fulfil this *agreement, a fair notice period will be issued to you as the client. (*Agreed work constitutes both parties having received and agreed to a relevant Service Agreement, as issued by Fantom Factory Limited.)
- We will provide full technical assistance for our provided services for the period of one working week, after delivery. At this point we shall issue our final invoice, which signifies your satisfaction with our completed services on payment.
- We will provide our Services within our hours of support, which are based on typical office hours for our geographical location in Wales, United Kingdom (GMT timezone).
Your responsibilities
- You (the Client) must provide all relevant information as required for Fantom Factory Limited to complete the project. Any delays in receiving this information may result in a change of delivery dates and possibly a re-prioritisation of work. Extra time spent on finding this information through other means, may result in extra charges being applied to the final invoice from Fantom Factory Limited.
- You (the Client) must disclose any potential technical impacts as soon as they are known. Any extra time spent on investigating ‘unforeseen’ technical barriers may result in extra charges being applied to the final invoice from Fantom Factory Limited.
- Good communication is expected from both parties (Fantom Factory Limited and the Client) in order to deliver an *agreed Project within the estimated timescales and budget.
- Once a Service Agreement has been finalised, if the scope of the required work for the Client changes, this may require a change of Service Agreement and associated estimate, in order to continue the Project.
Software & Licensing
- All Intellectual Property for software created by Fantom Factory Limited will belong to us (Fantom Factory Limited), unless otherwise determined within a Service Agreement.
- Any software owned/created by Fantom Factory Limited, may be altered and sold by Fantom Factory Limited through other channels (such as StackHub.org) to the wider commercial audience. In this event, any such software will be made completely generic, with no reference to any previous Clients or exposing any sensitive information or IP not belonging to Fantom Factory Limited.
- Software created for Clients will have no support agreements attached to these. At the point of invoice payment, any responsibility on behalf of Fantom Factory Limited for such a delivered product will effectively end. Any further support or assistance offered, will be on the basis of ‘best endeavours’.
- Any software sold as a commercial product, and not via a Service Agreement, will have a specified and attached licence agreement which dictates the terms of the use for that software product.
- Any refund requests for our software services will be judged on an individual basis.
