Unless otherwise stated at the time of subscription, monthly subscriptions have no minimum commitment period and are renewed monthly until cancelled.

Any cancellation request must be made at least 5 working days before the next renewal date.

Subscriptions may be cancelled using the cancellation function available through the Piano Académie personal account or application, in accordance with applicable law. Cancellation may also be requested in writing.

Where a cancellation request is submitted within the required period, the subscription ends at the end of the period already paid for.

If the cancellation request is not submitted within the required period, the next payment may be collected and the subscription will end at the following renewal date.

Piano Académie will acknowledge receipt of the cancellation request and inform the subscriber of the date on which cancellation will take effect.

Packages of 5 or 10 lessons are valid for 6 months from the date of purchase, unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase.

Unused credits remaining after their expiry date are forfeited and are not refundable, subject to any mandatory statutory provisions.

Lesson packages cannot be suspended or terminated early unless otherwise required by applicable law.

ARTICLE 4 – TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF A SUBSCRIPTION

Any request to suspend a subscription temporarily must be made in writing at least 5 working days before the requested suspension date.

A suspension may be granted for a minimum period of one week and a maximum period of four weeks.

All suspension requests are subject to approval by Piano Académie.

Each subscription may be suspended a maximum of twice during any rolling 12-month period, for a combined maximum of four weeks.

Where a suspension results from an exceptional closure of Piano Académie or an exceptional reduction in the availability of classes, it will not count towards the subscriber’s personal suspension allowance.

Where a personal suspension exceeds four weeks, the subscription may be considered
