As mentioned in clause 5 above, the content on our platform is not legal advice and we do recommend taking legal (or other relevant professional) advice before taking or refraining from any action on the basis of our content. You do not have to use our law firm partners for that advice, but we can put you in touch with them if you want to.

  • you’ll find applicable initial terms of engagement for each partner law firm at the following links for the Speak to an Adviser and Review it for Me and you’ll be asked to read and accept those terms of engagement before you can confirm your request for the relevant pay as you go service. We may provide a facility via the platform allowing you to electronically confirm your acceptance of the relevant partner’s terms of engagement, but please note that we shall not be a party to such contract;
  • to the extent there is ever any inconsistency between the relevant partner’s terms of engagement and these terms, the relevant partner’s terms of engagement shall apply to the pay as you go services in precedence to these terms;
  • you’ll need to complete the know-your-customer and anti-money laundering information that forms part of the order process (if you do not provide this information within a reasonable time, or if you provide incomplete or incorrect information, then the law firm partner may not be able to provide the pay as you go services to you);
  • you’ll need to pay the additional fees relevant to the pay as you go services, and details of such fees are displayed on the order pages for the pay as you go services;
  • you must pay for the pay as you go services in advance of our partner law firms providing the services and the order pages will set out the types of credit and debit cards accepted for payment;
  • the fees paid to us for the pay as you go sessions are shared between the partner law firms (who receive 90% of the total fees) and us (who receive the remaining 10%); and

You agree to the relevant partner providing us with confirmatory details of final fees paid by you in respect of any matter on which you instruct them, so that the applicable referral fee can be calculated.

8.3. Pay as you go services will not be available to customers who enter the platform via a unique code or insurance policy link.

  • to update the terms in respect of any changes to any of the services available on the platform,

9.2. Minor changes to the services. We may change the services:

  • to reflect any changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements which we are bound by; and
  • to implement minor technical adjustments and improvements, for example to address a security threat. These changes will not affect your use of the services.

9.3. More significant changes to the services. We may make changes to the services, but if we do so we will notify you and you may then contact us to end the contract before the changes take effect. Changes may include the following:

  • to withdraw a particular service (see clause 14.2 below for more details);
  • to update the fees for the services from time to time; and
  • to change any particular service from time to time.

10. Providing the services

10.1. How we will provide the services. We will provide the services with reasonable care and skill.

10.2. When we will provide the services. We will supply the services to you until:

  • if you have signed up to a trial period, the end of that trial period;
  • your subscription expires;
  • you end your subscription to the services as described in clause 12;
  • we end your subscription to the services by written notice to you as described in clause 14;
  • if your access to the platform is part of a relationship or contract with a third-party company, organisation or association, when your relationship or your contract with the third party company, organisation or association ends or terminates.

10.3. Availability of the platform and services. We do not guarantee that the platform, or any content on, or services available via, it, will always be available or be uninterrupted.

  • Planned disruptions. We will need to interrupt the availability of the platform, content and services to perform routine maintenance and upgrades. We will try to give you reasonable notice of any planned suspension.

  • Unscheduled disruptions. In an emergency we may need to interrupt or make the platform unavailable. Unfortunately due to this, we may not be able to give you any prior notice of such disruptions. See clause 10.5 below.

10.4. We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the services is delayed by an event outside our control, then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end your subscription.

10.5. Reasons we may suspend the supply of services to you. We may have to suspend the supply of services to:

  • deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
  • update the services to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
  • because of the way you receive access to the platform as part of a relationship or contract with a third-party company, organisation or association, if that third-party company, organisation or association has asked us to suspend the supply of services to you;
  • make changes to the services as notified by us to you (see clause 9 above).

10.8. Your rights if we suspend the supply of services. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the services, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. There are circumstances that may disrupt services such as Governmental orders, extreme weather, industrial action that affect internet or other communications to us that prevent services to You. You may contact us to end your subscription if we suspend the services, or tell you we are going to suspend the services, in each case for a period of more than 7 days.

11. Access on the platform

11.1. Public access. A limited part of the platform is accessible to visitors, who do not need passwords or user identities to enjoy the publicly-available content provided.

11.2. Keep you login details secure. If you register (or are registered with) an account on our platform, you will have chosen or been provided with a user name, password and potentially other information as part of our security procedures. Please use these responsibly and securely as they are strictly confidential. You must not disclose them to anyone else without our express written permission.

11.3. Security breaches in respect of your login details. If you know or suspect that anyone other than you knows your user identity and/or password, you must promptly notify us at info@farill.io.

11.4. We may disable your access if you do not comply with these terms. We have the right to disable any user name or password, whether chosen by you or provided to you by us, at any time, if in our reasonable opinion you have failed to comply with any of the provisions of these terms.

12. Your rights to end your subscription

12.1. You can always end your subscription with us. Your rights when you end your subscription will depend on whether there is anything wrong, how we are performing and when you decide to end the subscription:

  • If what you have received is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the subscription (or to have a service re-performed), see clause 16;
  • If you want to end your subscription because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause 12.2;
  • If you have just changed your mind, see clauses 12.3 and 12.4;
  • In all other cases (if we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind), see clause 12.5.

12.2. Ending your subscription because of something we have done or are going to do. If you are ending your subscription for a reason set out at (a) to (e) below your subscription will end immediately and (in certain circumstances) you may also be entitled to compensation. The reasons are:

  • we have told you about an upcoming change to the services or these terms which you do not agree to (see clauses 9.1 and 9.3);
  • we have told you about an error in the description of the services and you do not wish to proceed;
  • there is a risk that supply of the services may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
  • we have suspended supply of the services for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than 7 days; or
  • you have a legal right to end your subscription because of something we have done wrong.

12.3. Exercising your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013). For most services bought online you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days (this is commonly known as a cooling off period).

12.4. How long do I have to change my mind (during the cooling off period)? You have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm your account has been set up. Please note:

  • You should let us know what you have changed your mind and want to cancel during the cooling off period in accordance with clause 13.2 below.
  • We would not usually begin to provide the services until the cooling off period has expired unless you explicitly request us to do so. Under the law, if you do explicitly ask us to begin providing the services and then change your mind during the cooling off period, then you are liable to pay for the services provided during the cooling off period. However, because of the way you receive access to the platform, we will usually allow you access within the cooling off period even if you have not explicitly requested it and, if you change your mind, we will not ask you to make any payments in respect of services provided during that period.
  • In addition, because of the way you receive access to the platform as part of a relationship or contract with a third-party company, organisation or association, we will not be required to refund you any sums if you cancel your subscription during the 14 day cooling off period.
  • The above does not affect any pay as you go services (see clause 8) which are governed by the terms of engagement of the relevant law firm partner.

12.5. Ending your subscription where we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind (including after expiry of the cooling off period). Although we hope that you want to continue to access our platform and the content on it, if at any point you want to cancel your subscription with us and end your subscription, then you may terminate your subscription by logging in to your account on the platform, and selecting the ‘cancel account’ button in your account settings. You will continue to have access to your account, our content and will be able to use the services for the remainder of the period which you have been subscribed for (or which has been paid for on your behalf by a third party company, organisation or association) and your access will terminate at the end of that period. You must still comply with these terms during any remaining period after you have notified us that you wish to cancel your subscription

13. How to end your subscription with us (including if you have changed your mind)

13.1. Tell us you want to end your subscription. To end your subscription with us, please let us know by doing one of the following:

  • where your access to the platform is due to or included as part of a contract or relationship you have with a third party company, organisation or association with whom we have entered into an agreement to provide you with access to the platform and the contract between us and that third party is terminated (by us or them) or expires;
  • we have run a trial offer, the relevant time period for which has expired.

14.2. We may withdraw the services. We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing all, some or part of the services. We will try to let you know at least 30 days in advance of our stopping the supply of the relevant services.

15. Termination of your subscription and the contract

15.1. Consequences of termination of your subscription. On termination of your subscription (whether by you or by us):

  • all licences granted under these terms shall immediately terminate and you shall have no further use of the services or access to our content available via your subscription (but this shall not affect publicly available content);
  • you shall return and make no further use of any equipment, passwords and other items (and all copies of them) belonging to us;
  • we will provide you with an opportunity to download any of your content that we hold within 30 days of termination.

  • if you owe us any fees (including for any pay as you go services) you will pay these according to these terms; and

15.2. You may still need to comply with some terms. Even if your subscription is cancelled or terminated, if you use the publicly accessible areas of our platform and any content available on it or services available via it, you will still be bound by the relevant obligations contained in these terms.

16.1. How to tell us about problems. If you have any questions or complaints, please contact us. You can telephone us on 07543 221067, email us at info@farill.io, use the live chat feature on our platform or write to us at Farillio, 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX.

16.2. Summary of your legal rights. We are under a legal duty to supply services that are in conformity with these terms. See the box below for a summary of your key legal rights. Nothing in these terms will affect your legal rights.

  • You can ask us to repeat or fix a service if it’s not carried out with reasonable care and skill, or get some money back if we can’t fix it.

  • If you haven’t agreed a price beforehand, what you’re asked to pay must be reasonable.

  • If you haven’t agreed a time beforehand, it must be carried out within a reasonable time.

    See also Exercising your right to change your mind (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013).

17. Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you

17.1. No reliance on content and no substitute for advice. As explained in clauses 5.1 and 5.2 above, our platform and the content appearing on it is for general information only and should not be relied upon by you. In relation to our platform and the content appearing on it:

  • it is not legal or other professional advice.
  • none of the content should be interpreted as a recommendation that you enter (or don’t enter) into a particular transaction, or that any particular service is right, suitable or appropriate for you.
  • you must obtain legal, professional or specialist advice before taking, or refraining from, any action on the basis of the content on our platform.
  • the platform includes a means for you to sign documents and have documents signed with a simple electronic signature. This is not a recommendation that those documents should be signed using e-signatures as a simple contract. You must take your own legal advice in respect of the means by which any document should be signed in order for that document to be legally binding (including, for instance, whether it needs to be signed as a deed in the presence of a witness).

17.2. We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking these terms or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

17.3. We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights as summarised at clause 16.2; and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987

17.4. Damage to a device or digital content. If something which we have supplied damages a device or digital content belonging to you and this is caused by our failure to use reasonable care and skill, we will either repair the damage or pay you compensation. However, we will not be liable for damage which was caused by you failing to have in place the minimum system requirements advised by us.

17.5. We are not responsible for viruses. We do not guarantee that our platform will be secure or free from bugs or viruses. You are responsible for configuring your information technology to access our platform. You should use your own virus protection software.

17.6. We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the services under these terms to consumers for domestic and private use. If you use the services for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity. If you do use the services as a business (rather than a consumer) then please refer to our terms and conditions for business users terms-and-conditions.

17.7. We are not liable for information shared by you with your contacts. If you use our platform to share your confidential or personal information with your contacts and third parties, we are not liable to you (or them) for use of your content.

17.8. Damage or loss as result of pay as you go services. If you decide to purchase any of the pay as you go services provided by one of our partner law firms (see clause 8 above for more details on the pay as you go services), then you will need to check the relevant partner’s terms of engagement for any applicable limitations or exclusions in respect of those pay as you go services. We do not provide the pay as you go services and we are not a party to the relevant partner’s terms of engagement with you. In the unlikely event you have a dispute with our partners, you must contact them directly to resolve it in accordance with their applicable terms.

18. How we may use your personal information

18.1. How we may use your personal information. We know that any personal information you share with us is important and that you trust us to keep that data safe. We want you to gain the most by joining and remaining a member of the platform and tailoring our platform experience and our services to suit your circumstances, intentions and ambitions. That’s why we will process all personal information that you supply to us in compliance with the terms of applicable data protection laws. Your personal information will be handled as set out in Our cookie policy and privacy policy.

18.2. Monitoring of use. We do lawfully monitor usage of our platform, according to the terms of Our cookie policy and privacy policy. We do this to be able continuously to improve visitor and member experience of the platform and our services. We may also do this to comply with the rules of any applicable regulatory or self-regulatory organisation.

19. Other important terms

19.1. We may transfer this agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under these terms.

19.2. You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing.

19.3. Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.

19.4. If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

19.5. Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date..

19.6. Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in the English courts. If you live in Scotland, you can bring legal proceedings in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland, you can bring legal proceedings in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.

20. Complaints and disputes

20.1. Complaints. We work really hard to bring you an experience that positively exceeds your expectations at all times. If you’re feeling dissatisfied about any part of your experience, then you can contact us to make a complaint. We have set out below our complaints procedure and details about how to make a complaint. If you receive access to the platform as part of a relationship or contract with a third-party company, organisation or association, we will not deal with any complaints relating to your contract, policy or relationship with that third party and if we do receive a complaint from you relating to them or your contract, policy or relationship we will direct you back to them. Likewise, if your complaint relates to services provided by a law firm partner, an expert or legal advice helpline, then we will direct you to them to deal with the complaint.

20.2. If you want to make a complaint. If you want to make a complaint, then you can contact us by:

  • Email to complaints@farill.io

  • Telephone on 07543 221067

  • Post to Farillio, 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX

    and please include your username, full details of your complaint and details of how you would like us to resolve your complaint. Please note we will never ask you for your password.

20.3. Complaints handling procedure. The following sets out our complaints handling procedure on receipt of a complaint from you.

  • We will acknowledge receipt of any complaint within 7 working hours of receipt (working hours being between 8am – 7pm, Monday to Friday, excluding any bank holidays in the UK), confirming which category of complaint we have assigned to it and also providing a reference number and dedicated contact details for your records and ours.
  • If you have made your complaint over our livechat facility, we will take a transcript of the record and use that as a written record of your complaint, unless you tell us that you prefer us not to do so. If you ask us not to do this, we will request that you instead set out your complaint in writing (by email is fine), so that we can be confident that we have all the facts we need, to proceed with considering and dealing with your complaint.
  • If you have made your complaint to us over the phone or in person, we will confirm to you our understanding of the reasons for your complaint and ask you to advise us if you do not agree, or if we have inadvertently missed out or misunderstood any of your concerns. Once we have your confirmation that this account is correct, we will proceed to deal with your complaint.

20.4. Investigating your complaint. The following sets out how we will investigate any complaint received from you:

  • Your complaint will be investigated by an appropriate member of staff, who will be identified as the correct person depending on the seriousness of the complaint and the nature of it e.g. a technical, legal or other matter.
  • In resolving complaints, we will review all relevant information available to us and we endeavour to complete any such investigation and reach conclusions as soon as reasonably possible.
  • The length of time this will take will be determined by the complexity and type of complaint and the extent of the investigation required.
  • During our investigation, we may ask you for additional information to help us reach a conclusion. We will also aim to keep you updated on the progress of your complaint and the steps being taken to deal with it.
  • If your complaint is straightforward, we may be in a position to resolve it very quickly.
  • If we are able to resolve your complaint before the end of the second working day (working day being Monday – Friday, excluding bank holidays in the UK) after it is received by us, we will send you a ‘summary of findings and our proposed resolution’ promptly, with confirmation of the action we have taken to resolve your complaint. In all other cases we will send you a written acknowledgement of your complaint promptly, normally within 2 working days of receiving it.
  • Once we have completed our investigation, we will write to you to explain our conclusion(s). Under normal circumstances, we aim to do this within 14 working days of receiving your complaint.
  • In the extremely unlikely event that we are unable to complete our investigation and contact you conclusively within 14 working days from the date of receiving your complaint, we will write to you explaining why we are still not in a position to issue a final response, giving reasons for the further delay and indicating when we expect to be able to issue you with our final conclusions and resolution.

20.5. Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. Please note that disputes may be submitted for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform (ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr).

While we can connect you with some very fine advisers in the UK, and we collaborate with them to provide you with great materials, Farillio itself is not a law firm. We do not directly provide legal advice ourselves. All resources are available for you to use (according to our terms and conditions), but those resources are not legal advice to you and neither are they a substitute for you taking legal advice from a lawyer.
