During the last twenty-four (24)h before the date of the Session, the User may request cancellation, which will be accepted or rejected depending on the reason given. If the request is not accepted, the Session will be deducted from the User's credit.

The Expert is bound by his deontological rules to professional secrecy.

The Site allows the User to benefit from psychology and coaching sessions which in no way substitute for medical consultations.

If necessary, the Experts may invite the Users to consult a doctor or the services they consider appropriate for the User (emergency, specialist, hospital, medical or paramedical staff).

The User in an emergency situation or at significant health risk, whether fatal or not, agrees not to use the Site and to consult a health professional.

The User consents, within the framework of his registration on the Site and access to the Sessions, to the collection and processing of his personal data by the Company.

Any dispute that may arise from the interpretation of these General Terms and Conditions or the contractual relations between the User and the Site shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the French courts.

12. MISCELLANEOUS

It is formally recognized that any tolerance or waiver by the Company in the application of the present Terms and Conditions, regardless of their frequency or duration, shall not constitute a modification of the present Terms and Conditions, nor generate any right whatsoever.
