Course Terms and Conditions

Important Notice on Entity and Scope

All physical products (e.g. seeds, natural cosmetics) sold via shop.herbwoman.eu/de are offered and invoiced by Falkasete AS, registered in Norway under NO988195154VAT, based at Skreddarstuva 141, 4160 Finnøy, Norway.

All online courses and digital learning services (e.g. e-learning platforms, course materials) are sold and managed by Salon AS, registered in Norway under NO921312660VAT, operating from the same address.

Please note that different terms apply to physical product sales and to course service agreements. For terms specific to online courses, please refer to this dedicated Course Terms and Conditions page, and for refund information, visit our Refund & Returns Policy.

This course agreement is between you, the user of this Website, and Salon AS, the owner of this Website. By using the Website for the first time you agree to comply with and be bound by Clauses 1, 2, 4 – 11 and 15 – 25 of these Terms and Conditions. Clauses 3 and 12 – 14 apply only to the sale of Services. If you do not agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, you should stop using the Website immediately.

No part of this Website is intended to constitute a contractual offer capable of acceptance. Your order constitutes a contractual offer, and Our acceptance of that offer is deemed to occur when We send you an order-confirmation email indicating that your order has been accepted.

Installment Payments and Interest

By enrolling in a course, you agree to pay the full course fee, even if payment is made in installments. These installments are a method of financing the full amount owed and do not represent a subscription or a pay-as-you-go model.

If you stop participating, you are still contractually obligated to pay the outstanding balance.

In case of non-payment:

• Salon AS will issue written reminders, allowing at least 14 days for payment.
• If payment is not received, your account access may be suspended.
• The outstanding balance may be transferred to a licensed debt collection agency.
• Interest will be charged in accordance with the Norwegian Act on Interest on Overdue Payments (Forsinkelsesrenteloven) at the prevailing statutory rate.
• You may also be liable for standard debt collection fees.

Salon AS reserves the right to enforce the contract and recover unpaid amounts using legal remedies.

  10.1.1 all information you submit is accurate and truthful;
  10.1.2 you have permission to submit Payment Information where permission may be required; and
  10.1.3 you will keep this information accurate and up-to-date. Creating an Account is further affirmation of your representation and warranty.

10.2 Do not share your Account details, particularly your username and password. We accept no liability for losses or damages incurred as a result of your Account details being shared by you. If you use a shared computer, do not save your Account details in your browser.

10.3 If you believe your Account details have been obtained by another without consent, contact Us immediately to suspend your Account and cancel any unauthorised orders or payments. Orders or payments can only be cancelled until Services provision has begun. If an unauthorised provision begins before you notify Us, you will be charged for the period from the commencement of provision until the date you notify Us.

10.4 When choosing a username you must adhere to the terms in Clause 9. Failure to do so could result in suspension and/or deletion of your Account.

11. Termination and Cancellation of Accounts

11.1 Either Salon AS or you may terminate your Account. If We terminate your Account, you will be notified by email and an explanation for the termination will be provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, We reserve the right to terminate without giving reasons.

11.2 If We terminate your Account, any current or pending orders or payments will be cancelled and provision of Services will not commence.

12. Services, Pricing and Availability

12.1 Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that all general descriptions of Services available from Salon AS correspond to the actual Services provided, We are not responsible for variations, as the exact nature of the Services may vary according to your requirements and circumstances. This does not exclude Our liability for negligence and refers only to variations of the correct Services, not to different Services altogether (see 13.8 for incorrect Services).

12.2 Where appropriate, you may be required to select the required Service package or plan.

12.3 We neither represent nor warrant that such Services will be available at all times and cannot confirm availability until confirming your order.

12.4 All pricing information on the Website is correct at the time of going online. We reserve the right to change prices and alter or remove special offers as necessary.

12.5 If prices change between your order and Our processing of that order, the price valid at the time of ordering shall apply.

13. Orders and Provision of Services

13.1 No part of this Website constitutes a contractual offer capable of acceptance. Your order constitutes a contractual offer that We may accept at Our sole discretion. Acceptance is indicated by an order-confirmation email. Only once the order-confirmation email has been sent is there a binding contract between Salon AS and you.

13.2 Order-confirmation emails shall contain:

  13.2.1 confirmation of the Services ordered and their main characteristics;
  13.2.2 fully-itemised pricing including taxes, delivery and other charges;
  13.2.3 the applicable times and dates for the provision of the Services;
  13.2.4 login credentials and relevant information for accessing the Services.

13.3 If We do not accept your order, no payment shall be taken. Any sums paid will be refunded within 14 calendar days.

13.4 Payment shall be taken via your chosen method immediately for any set-up fees and on the same day of each month (“billing period”) for fees accrued during the previous period, and/or as indicated in the order-confirmation.

13.5 We aim to fulfil your order within 2 – 3 business days or within a reasonable period. If this is not possible, We will inform you. Time is not of the essence of the Contract. If you request Services to begin within 14 calendar days of acceptance, you must expressly acknowledge that your statutory cancellation right (Clause 14) will be affected.

13.6 Salon AS will provide the Services with reasonable skill and care in line with best industry practice.

13.7 If Services do not match your order (incorrect Services) you should inform Us immediately. Necessary corrections will be made within 5 business days. Additional terms may apply to certain Services; you will be asked to accept such terms when ordering.

13.8 Salon AS provides technical support via an online interface and/or telephone. We strive to respond swiftly but do not guarantee a specific response time.

14. Cancellation of Orders and Services

We want you to be completely satisfied with the products or Services you order from Salon AS. To speak to us about your Order, email support@herbwoman.eu/de or write to us at our address (see Clause 1). You may cancel an accepted Order or the Contract. Where Specific Terms accompanying the Service contain cancellation terms, those terms apply.

14.1 Cooling-off period (EU consumers)
If you are an EU consumer you have a statutory 14-calendar-day cooling-off period starting when your order is confirmed. To cancel within this period, email support@herbwoman.eu/de.

14.2 Services starting within the cooling-off period
  14.2.1 If the Services are fully performed within the 14-day period, you lose the right to cancel once provision is complete.
  14.2.2 If you cancel after provision has begun but before completion, you must pay for Services supplied up to cancellation. Refunds (where applicable) will be issued within 5 working days and no later than 14 calendar days.

14.3 Cancellation after the 14-day period is subject to the specific terms of the Service and may involve a minimum contract term.
