  • Our Privacy Policy; and
  • Our disclaimer; and
  • Any additional conditions or notices contained elsewhere on our website.

For the avoidance of doubt, the above items jointly constitute the terms and conditions of the supply of all goods and services, the use of our digital resources, social media channels and access to any and all of our associated website(s).

Sunflower HR is fully committed to maintaining the confidentiality of our clients and customers.

Payment By Credit or Debit Card

When you purchase or buy goods and or services from Sunflower HR Ltd. for immediate payment and pay with a credit/debit card, we will automatically debit that card for all payments that become due for said goods and or services.

When you purchase or buy goods and or services from Sunflower HR Ltd. for phased or later payment with a credit/debit card, we will automatically debit that card for all phased and later payments as they become due for the goods and services (including for any renewal of subscriptions or services). If you wish to change or update your payment method, you must provide us with one month’s written notice that you wish to do so. If you do not do this, we will continue to debit the relevant card.

We cannot provide any refunds on good or services once your order is confirmed.

For the avoidance of doubt, you will be legally obligated to pay any amount due as soon as you confirm your order. By providing us with a credit or debit card, you warrant that you are entitled to use that credit or debit card, and agree to indemnify us against any breach of this warranty. You further agree that this clause will not merge or expire on termination of your services.

Value Added Tax (VAT)

Unless otherwise stated, all prices shown on the Sunflower HR website are exclusive of VAT.

Retained Services

Retained HR or Training Services are subject to a minimum term of at least 12 calendar months from the start date.

  • Annual Subscription Payment:
    • This is our preferred payment option and the best value for our clients.
  • Annual Subscription phased payment plan:
    • There are many benefits to spreading the payments over a number of payment periods and can justify the increased overall cost for some clients.
    • Please select the phased option when you come to arrange payment and by selecting this option you commit and legally bind yourself to the series of payments from the debit or credit card you registered at the time of purchase.
  • Start date:
    • Retained services with Sunflower HR shall commence on the date of receipt of payment of the appropriate subscription rate.
  • Continuing service periods:
    • We will make a reasonable attempt to contact you at least once, by email or telephone, prior to your annual retained services becoming due, to ensure you wish to continue your services.
    • Please note that if you pay an annual subscription by credit/debit card it is your responsibility to let us know, giving us one month’s notice in writing before payment is taken, if you wish to cancel your renewal.
    • We cannot provide any refunds on subscriptions paid. Please note that if your subscription is not received by the due date, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your membership and licence until payment is received.
  • Termination date:
    • Access to Sunflower HR Retained Services will continue as long as the subscription is paid and the membership has not been terminated within these terms and conditions.
  • Termination of Retained Services
    • We may terminate your retained services at any time by giving written notice to you immediately and without refund if you commit any continuing or material breach of these terms (including but not limited to failing to pay any amount which is due to us on time and in full).
    • Where you have failed to pay any amount due to us we may immediately restrict access to your goods and services on our digital resources, social media channels, and any and all associated website(s).
