You agree to use our website only for lawful purposes.
You must not:
use the website in any way that breaches applicable laws or regulations;
attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the website or member area;
introduce viruses, malware or other harmful software;
interfere with the security or operation of the website;

To access certain content, you may need to create an account.
You are responsible for:
providing accurate information;
maintaining the security of your login details;
keeping your password confidential;
all activity carried out using your account.
You must notify us immediately if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.
4. Membership Subscriptions
Membership provides access to the resources included within your chosen subscription plan.
Membership benefits may change over time as new content is added or existing content is updated or retired.
Membership is intended for the purchaser only unless your subscription specifically permits wider organisational access.
5. Payments
Membership fees are payable in advance using the payment methods available on our website.
Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled before the next renewal date.
You authorise us (or our payment provider) to collect recurring subscription payments until your membership is cancelled.
Failure to make payment may result in suspension or cancellation of your membership.
6. Cancellation
You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account or by contacting us at:
info@thedevelopmentroomcpd.co.uk
Unless otherwise stated, cancellation prevents future renewals but does not normally result in a refund for the current billing period.
Your membership benefits will continue until the end of your paid subscription period.
7. Digital Products and Refunds
The Development Room CPD provides immediate access to digital content.
Where digital content has been accessed or downloaded, you acknowledge that you may lose your statutory right to cancel under applicable consumer legislation once performance has begun, where you have expressly consented to this before access is granted.
Refund requests will be considered in accordance with your statutory consumer rights.
Nothing in these Terms limits your legal rights under UK consumer law.

9. Licence to Use Our Resources
When you purchase a membership, you receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the resources for your own professional use or, where applicable, for internal use within your school or organisation.

Memberships may not be shared with individuals or organisations outside the licensed school or organisation.
We reserve the right to suspend memberships where account sharing or unauthorised distribution is identified.

We aim to keep our website available at all times but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access.
We may suspend access temporarily for:
