IKRT PROGRAMS AGREEMENT AND TERMS
To consult with Integrative Ketogenic Research & Therapies Ltd, and their programs and services, I agree to the following statements:
Legal Agreements
If I have any legal issue or complaint about this program, I agree to go through the English courts only (not courts in the US, EU, or anywhere else). This agreement follows the laws of England.
Program Fees
By joining the IKRT Ketogenic Therapy Preparation Course, I agree to pay in full, even if I decide to stop early, delay starting or not start at all. I understand this is because IKRT prepares and invests in the program and I before it starts.
Refunds
I understand that refunds are not issued if I decide the program isn’t for me; this is in line with how most educational or healthcare programs operate. While I am free to step back at any point, for any reason, payment for the full program remains due at the point of sale.
Cancellation
I understand I may cancel my place in the program and receive a refund if I provide written notice by email no later than the registration closing date. A £50 administrative fee will be deducted from my refund to cover non-refundable payment processing charges and immediate onboarding administration completed at the point of purchase.
After this deadline, no refunds are available, and payment for the full program remains due regardless of changes in personal circumstances or ability to participate. This is because the program includes digital content, immediate access to preparatory materials, and scheduled live professional guidance, all of which require IKRT to reserve my place and commit resources in advance.
If I wish to begin accessing any part of the program within the statutory 14-day cooling-off period, I acknowledge that this constitutes express consent to receive digital content and services immediately, and that I waive my right to cancel under consumer law once I have accepted the terms of this program. This does not affect any statutory rights that cannot legally be excluded.
Program Dates and Deferrals Policy
By enrolling in an IKRT program, I am purchasing access to a specific cohort with fixed start and end dates. My place is reserved at the time of purchase and cannot be transferred or deferred to a future cohort.
Access to program materials, and live or recorded sessions remains available for the full program duration, whether or not I choose or am able to engage during that time.
All program fees remain due in full, similar to other time-bound professional education or membership services, similar to a gym or membership-based service: access is provided for a defined period, but usage is my responsibility.
This policy is necessary due to limited cohort sizes, live professional support, and the administrative and staffing commitments required to deliver the program.
Extensions and Access to Course Material at the End of the Program
I understand that program access is provided for a fixed period. If I am unable to participate or engage as intended due to life events or other circumstances, extensions cannot be offered, as continued access beyond the program dates requires additional professional support and resources. If I wish to access course materials and/or receive support at the end of the program, I understand that I can join the IKRT Foundations program or work with IKRT in a 1:1 capacity.
My Responsibility
I understand that I am fully responsible for my health. IKRT is here to support and educate me, not to replace my doctor. If something falls outside IKRT’s area of expertise, they may recommend another professional. I accept that I am joining this program at my own risk, and I take full responsibility for any effects it may have on me.
Technology Requirements - Client Responsibility
I understand that the IKRT program is delivered entirely online and that I am responsible for being proficient in the basic technologies required to participate fully.
I understand that, in order to take part in the program, I must be able to:
- Use email and calendar reliably
- Complete Google and online forms regularly and on time
- Purchase required items online
- Track my food intake using an app such as MyFitnessPal
- Join and participate in Zoom video calls
I understand that IKRT does not provide individual technical support and that I am expected to manage these tools independently. I understand that if I cannot use these technologies, cannot learn them, or cannot keep up with the program requirements, the responsibility lies with me. I acknowledge that difficulty with technology does not qualify me for additional support, exceptions, or refunds.
My Data
I understand and accept that my purchase will result in the storage of data.
Liability Waiver
By joining this program, I accept all risks associated with dietary and lifestyle changes, including the risk of harm or even death (however unlikely), and I will not hold IKRT, Dr Erin Louise Bellamy, or any team member responsible for anything that happens to me as a result of the program. This includes any illness or injury, whether or not it was caused by a mistake.
Confidentiality
IKRT Ketogenic Therapy Preparation Lab: I understand that this is an educational program, not medical care, and participation occurs in a shared environment. Therefore, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed in this program. I understand that all program members are asked to sign a short ‘Community Privacy Agreement (below)’ before participating. If IKRT is informed of a confidentiality breach, the individual responsible will be removed from the community platform.
Results
I understand that IKRT will support me in preparing to implement ketogenic therapy. I will not be initiating ketosis during this program. If I want to initiate ketosis, I will seek support from the other IKRT programs available.
Consent to Participate
I understand everything explained above and agree to follow the program guidelines. I accept the terms and know that results may vary, especially since the science behind Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy is still developing.
Circumstances Beyond IKRT’s Control
I understand that IKRT are not liable for delays or failure to fulfil its obligations due to events beyond its control (e.g. natural disasters, war, strikes, or network failures). If such events occur, IKRT will notify me as soon as possible, and its obligations will be paused for the duration of the disruption.
Governing Law
English law governs these Terms and the contract between IKRT and I. English courts will have jurisdiction over any dispute that may arise out of these Terms or the contract between IKRT and I.
COMMUNITY PRIVACY AGREEMENT
I understand that this is an educational program, not medical care, and participation takes place in a shared environment. As such, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. However, if IKRT confirms a confidentiality breach, the individual responsible will be removed from the community platform.
Private Community on Simplero Platform
I understand that the private community platform, where I may seek support between calls from other members, is GDPR compliant but is not HIPAA compliant. This means the platform is not designed to store or protect sensitive medical information in the way a healthcare provider’s system would. This is because:
- The platform does not collect, store, or process any personal health information (all personal health data is securely managed within PracticeBetter).
- The community is intended for education, peer support, and general discussion only, and does not constitute a practitioner-client relationship.
I agree to:
Respect and Kindness
- Treat all members with kindness, empathy, and respect. We celebrate diverse experiences and encourage open, non-judgmental conversations.
Stay On-Topic
- Please keep posts and comments focused on ketogenic therapy and mental health. Off-topic content may be removed to keep the group valuable for all.
Protect Privacy
- What’s shared here stays here. Do not screenshot, copy, or share anyone’s posts, comments, or personal stories outside the group, ever.
No Medical Advice
- Feel free to share your own experience, but avoid giving medical advice. Always encourage others to speak with a qualified healthcare provider for personal medical concerns.
Support and Engage
- This is a space for connection and encouragement. Ask questions, share your journey, and support others along the way. All levels of participation are welcome, whether you're sharing regularly or quietly learning.
No Promotions or Self-Promotion
- To keep the group focused and free from pressure, please don’t post ads, links to services, or promote personal businesses without moderator approval.
Report Issues
- If you see anything that feels harmful, inappropriate, or out of alignment with these guidelines, please report it to the moderators. We’re here to keep the space safe and helpful.
Terms
I understand and agree to the IKRT terms (please read).
I hereby acknowledge and agree:
By signing this document, I acknowledge that I understand the information shared above, and I consent to the recommendations of the best practice outlined in the document.
