These Terms govern every order placed with CLA GROUP LIMITED through clagroup.online. Placing an order means you accept them.

1. Definitions

  • We, us, the Company: CLA GROUP LIMITED, company number 12992998, registered office 43 Oldbury Road, St Johns, Worcester, Worcestershire, England, WR2 6AA, trading as CLA Group.
  • You, the Customer: any person or organisation placing an order.
  • Consumer: a Customer acting wholly or mainly outside a trade, business, craft or profession.
  • Business Customer: any other Customer.
  • Services: the editorial and document services described on this website.
  • Deliverable: the edited or corrected document returned to you.

2. How an order is formed

  1. You select a service, provide your billing details and accept these Terms.
  2. Where the service begins straight away, you confirm the statement at checkout about starting work and your right to cancel — see section 7.
  3. You pay. The order is placed.
  4. We send an order confirmation by email. The contract is formed when that confirmation is sent, not when you click to pay.
  5. You send us the document. Turnaround starts from that point.

We may decline an order where the work falls outside what we offer, where the document is unlawful or defamatory, or where a previous order remains unpaid. Any amount paid is refunded in full.

3. Prices and payment

CLA GROUP LIMITED is not currently registered for VAT, as its turnover is below the UK registration threshold. No VAT is charged and none is recoverable by the customer. The price shown is the full amount payable — nothing is added at checkout, and there is no handling fee, processing fee or separate tax line.

Payment is due in full at the time of ordering. An invoice is issued for every order and sent by email.

Where a document turns out to fall materially outside the scope stated for the service — a longer text than the stated extent, or work of a different kind from the one ordered — we tell you before starting and either agree a supplement in writing or cancel the order and refund you in full. Nothing is ever invoiced after the event without your prior written agreement.

4. Turnaround and delivery

All work is delivered digitally by email. Turnaround times and how they are counted are set out in full in the Delivery Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

5. Revisions

Each service includes the revision rounds stated in its description. A round means one consolidated set of comments from you and one corresponding reworking by us.

Revisions cover adjustments within the scope originally ordered. A change of direction, a different purpose for the document, additional length or a further pass of a different type is new work and is quoted separately.

6. Your responsibilities

You agree to:

  • send a document that is complete and final in substance, unless you have ordered a service that expects otherwise;
  • hold the rights in any material you send us;
  • tell us at the outset about any style guide, house style or institutional requirement the work must follow;
  • respond to queries within a reasonable time so the work can proceed;
  • check the Deliverable on receipt and raise anything within the revision window.

You remain responsible for the content of your document, for the accuracy of its facts and claims, and for the use you make of it after delivery.

7. Your right to cancel — Consumers

If you are a Consumer, the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 give you 14 days to cancel. How that works, and how it is affected by asking us to start immediately, is set out in full in the Cancellation & Refund Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

Business Customers do not have a statutory right to cancel. The goodwill terms in that Policy apply instead.

8. Our obligations to you

We will carry out the Services with reasonable care and skill, within a reasonable time, and in line with the description of the service ordered — as sections 49 to 52 of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 require for Consumers, and as we undertake contractually for Business Customers.

This is an obligation of means, not of result. We do not guarantee any outcome that depends on a third party’s decision, including examination results, grades, publication or acceptance of an application.

9. Intellectual property and confidentiality

Your document remains yours throughout. Copyright in the underlying work does not transfer to us at any point.

On full payment, any rights arising in our editorial changes pass to you, so the corrected document is yours to use without restriction.

We treat every document as confidential. We do not disclose its contents, use it as a sample or reference, or share it with anyone other than where the law requires. This obligation continues after the order is complete.

10. Liability

We are liable for loss caused by our own failure to carry out the Services with reasonable care and skill. Our total liability for any order is limited to the amount you paid for it.

We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of opportunity, or a decision taken by a third party about your document.

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes: liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence; liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; any liability that cannot lawfully be limited; or a Consumer’s rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

11. Events outside our control

Neither party is liable for failure to perform caused by an event beyond its reasonable control. We will tell you without delay and agree a new date. If the event lasts more than 30 days, either party may cancel and any sum paid for work not carried out is refunded.

12. Complaints and dispute resolution

Send any complaint to info@clagroup.online. We reply within 1 business day and will work to resolve it directly.

Alternative dispute resolution through a certified ADR provider is available in the UK but is voluntary for traders in our sector. CLA GROUP LIMITED is not currently a member of an ADR scheme and does not agree in advance to use one. We tell you this because the law requires it to be stated plainly rather than left unsaid. This does not affect your right to bring court proceedings.

13. Personal data

Personal data is processed as described in the Privacy Policy, in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

14. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction. If you are a Consumer resident in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may bring proceedings in your own jurisdiction. If you are a Consumer resident outside the United Kingdom, you keep the protection of the mandatory rules of your country of residence.

15. General

If any provision is held invalid, the remainder continues in force. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. These Terms, together with the Cancellation & Refund Policy, the Delivery Policy, the Privacy Policy and your order confirmation, form the entire agreement between us.
