Refunds, Cancellations & Subscription Terms

1. 7-Day Cooling-Off Period

We understand CPDme may not be suitable for everyone. In accordance with the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations, you are entitled to a 100% refund if you cancel your new membership within 7 days of your original purchase. This must be requested in writing from your registered email address.
Please note: This policy does not apply to renewal payments or recurring subscriptions.

2. Refunds After 7 Days

After the 7-day window, no refunds will be issued due to administrative costs and system resource allocations including:

• Account setup and encryption

• Secure HTTPS infrastructure

• Allocated data storage space

• Reservation for CPDhub and Live webinar tickets

We strongly advise you to download any important documents or submissions prior to cancellation or deletion.

3. Data Deletion on Cancellation

If you request to cancel your account, all associated data, including CPD entries, certificates, and reflective submissions, will be permanently deleted from our systems in accordance with the UK GDPR and our [Privacy Policy].

If you're on a corporate account (CPDteams), your employer may be notified if you opt out of communications essential to your employment documentation or portfolio management.

4. Subscription Cancellation via Dashboard or AI

Your CPD Dashboard does not offer an instant “Cancel” button. This is a protective measure to ensure you have not inadvertently removed your CPD history. If the system detects any stored content, it will prompt you to contact support to verify you've downloaded your materials. We are committed to protecting your learning journey, not deleting it by mistake.

5. Discounts & Promotional Pricing

Unless clearly stated otherwise, all promotional discounts (e.g., New Year, Black Friday, Cyber Monday) apply only to your first 12 months of membership.

• By cancelling your Direct Debit directly with your bank (written confirmation may still be required)

If your payment method is cancelled without alternative arrangements, your membership will immediately revert to Basic, and you may lose access to certain features and data.

9. Refund Policy for Renewals & Subscriptions

Refunds are only available for first-time purchases made within 7 days. Renewals or recurring monthly payments do not qualify for refunds once payment is taken.To avoid renewal charges, you must cancel before your next billing date. If you allow a payment to be processed, you are agreeing to continue your membership for the next term.

10. App Store & Google Play Store Payments

For memberships purchased via:

• Apple App Store: 7-day refund policy applies to new subscriptions only.

• Google Play Store: Refund requests must be submitted within 48 hours. For first-time payments beyond 48 hours, you may contact CPDme support with your proof of cancellation.

All refund requests must be initiated through the respective store first.

Interesting Fact about CPDme! 

Did you know that for every 1000th New Personal or Corporate Member, we plant a tree obtained from the Woodland Trust to support offsetting our carbon footprint and support reducing paper waste by promoting digital portfolios for interviews and audits. 

🌿 Our Environmental Commitment at CPDme

At CPDme, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact and promoting sustainable business practices across all areas of our operations.

Digital First

We operate as a predominantly digital organisation (85%), with all staff utilising secure cloud-based systems via iPhones, iPads, and MacBooks to manage both internal and external communications. This helps us reduce our reliance on paper, energy, and physical storage.

• CPD portfolios are sent electronically via email as standard, including digital hyperlinks to certificates and evidence, helping to cut down on paper usage and postal emissions.

• Printed portfolios are available by request only, and are always produced using 100% recycled paper from sustainably managed forests.

Low-Impact Workspaces

To minimise our carbon footprint:

• We operate hot desk models across flexible office spaces to reduce unnecessary energy usage (electricity, gas, water).

• Office resources are kept minimal to promote a clean, safe, and energy-efficient work environment.

Sustainable Printing Practices

We avoid bulk ordering of stationery or marketing materials from external printers. Instead:

• All letterheads, compliment slips, flyers and business cards are designed and printed in-house on demand. This prevents waste, avoids outdated materials, and reduces storage needs.

• Where possible, we use non-window envelopes to ensure full recyclability and reduce waste.

Responsible Resource Use

We apply the following best practices daily:

• Print only when necessary, we do not print emails or internal documents unless essential.

• We send electronic files to clients and partners wherever possible.

• All recyclable materials including paper, cardboard, toner cartridges, and packaging are disposed of through appropriate recycling channels.

♻️ Our Ongoing Responsibility

Environmental awareness is embedded in the way we work. As we continue to innovate and grow, we do so with sustainability at the heart of our decision-making, ensuring we leave a lighter footprint on the planet, every step of the way.

If you would like a printed version of your portfolio or CPD materials, we’re happy to support you with a sustainable option, just ask.

Here at CPDme, we often give away some gifts and books as part of our marketing strategy. It's better to support our customers and attendees of webinars to support and market our business than to pay BIG organisations to pester you on social media with paid per click adverts!

Modern Slavery / Anti-slavery Policy Statement

 
Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It takes various forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking, all of which have in common the deprivation of a person’s liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain. 

CPDme / CPDteams has a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, and we are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains. 

We are also committed to ensuring there is transparency in our own business and in our approach to tackling modern slavery throughout our supply chains, consistent with our disclosure obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015. 

Corporate Membership Terms – CPDteams / Multiple Membership Management (MMM)

Organisations using CPDme through our CPDteams or Multiple Membership Management (MMM) service (e.g. employers, governing bodies, or educational institutions) agree to the following terms regarding the management and use of staff CPD accounts:

1. Organisational Oversight and Access

CPDteams is designed to enable authorised personnel within your organisation (e.g. managers, supervisors, training leads) to view, support, and monitor the CPD activity of staff members. This access is intended to:

• Facilitate engagement with CPD

• Support compliance with professional development standards

• Provide oversight and reporting for governance and audit purposes

CPDme only provides the digital infrastructure and secure platform access for both individual members and their organisation. CPDme is not responsible for how an employer or third party uses, interprets, or acts upon CPD data within their team.

2. Legal Responsibility and Third-Party Liability

By accepting these terms:

• The purchasing organisation (e.g. employer or institution) accepts sole responsibility for staff engagement, usage, and any managerial oversight related to CPD logging on CPDme.

• Individual staff users acknowledge that their organisation may have access to their CPD log for oversight and support purposes.

• CPDme accepts no third-party liability for how CPD data is used internally within the purchasing organisation.

Users are advised to speak directly with their line manager, CPD lead, or HR department to understand who has visibility of their development log and how their CPD contributions are assessed or supported.

For more details on organisational functionality, please visit:
👉 www.cpdme.com/cpdteams

3. Personal Membership Rights

Individuals who independently purchase CPDme membership for their own personal and professional development retain full control over their data.

• CPDme will not share personal member data with any third party, employer, or organisation without the explicit written consent of the member.

• Personal members can manage visibility and permissions within their account settings at any time.

This protection does not apply to staff accounts provided through CPDteams or an MMM agreement where organisational access is a condition of the license.

4. Transitioning from Corporate to Personal Membership

CPDteams member accounts are provided at the discretion of the purchasing organisation. An organisation may, at any time and for any reason (including role changes, contract expiry, or non-compliance with internal CPD policy), choose to exclude or remove individual users from its corporate CPDme platform. When this occurs, the individual will no longer have access to CPDme via the corporate account.

In such cases, the individual will be given the opportunity to transition to a personal membership plan at the current published rate (monthly or annual). This ensures continued access to their CPD records, certificates, and portfolio history without data loss.

Likewise, individuals may voluntarily request to be removed from a corporate/CPDteams account at any time and opt to continue using CPDme independently via a personal membership. This must be done by contacting CPDme in writing from their registered email address, after which a secure migration of data to a personal account will be arranged.

Remember: there is no such thing as “private” social media. Posts can be screenshotted, archived, and shared beyond their intended audience. Always consider if your message is professional, respectful, and appropriate before posting.

If in doubt, do not post—or seek guidance from your supervisor or the CPDme Digital Engagement Team.

• Personal data, confidential information, or proprietary materials

• Details about clients, employers, patients, or colleagues

• Any identifiable information that could breach UK GDPR or professional codes of conduct

c) Be Accurate and Fair

All social media communications made by or on behalf of CPDme must be:

• Accurate, current, evidence-based, and relevant

• Based on verified information or clearly marked as opinion

• Sourced appropriately (use links or citations where applicable)

Where third-party or educational content is shared, users are reminded this is for general learning only and should not be used as a sole source for clinical decisions, professional judgment, or formal documentation.

If CPDme identifies an error in content we have published, we will correct or retract it promptly and transparently.

5. Educational Content Disclaimer

Content shared on our platforms—whether created by CPDme, third parties, or users—is not a substitute for professional advice or guidance from a qualified practitioner. Users must use their own judgment and consult appropriate professional or regulatory authorities where required.

6. Violation and Enforcement

CPDme reserves the right to:

• Remove any content or comments that breach this policy

• Suspend or block individuals from interacting with our platforms

CPDme Social Media & Educational Content Policy

1. Educational Content and Social Media Participation

CPDme actively encourages the sharing of educational, evidence-based, and professional content across our website and social media channels. These platforms are designed to support CPD, lifelong learning, and networking for health and social care professionals.

While every effort is made to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the information shared, clinical practice evolves rapidly. As such:

• Content shared via CPDme should be considered as informational and supplementary only.

• It should not replace formal training, clinical supervision, or regulatory guidance.

• No real patient should be treated solely based on information found on CPDme platforms.

All material is intended to encourage critical thinking, further study, and the development of personal portfolios aligned with recognised standards of Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

2. Professional Competency and Responsibility

All users of CPDme content—whether courses, webinars, or social media material—are reminded that:

• Clinical decisions and delegated tasks must only be made by qualified, competent individuals acting within their legal scope of practice.

• Skills, techniques, or procedures referenced via CPDme must not be applied unless:

  • You have received formal training

  • You are operating within current evidence-based guidance

  • You are legally authorised and insured to perform the task in your clinical setting

No liability is accepted by CPDme, its presenters, or affiliates for any harm, injury, misconduct, or error resulting from misuse or misinterpretation of shared educational materials.

3. Respectful and Responsible Online Conduct

We expect all users engaging with CPDme’s platforms to conduct themselves with respect, professionalism, and integrity. To support this:

• Social media should be used as a tool to inform, share, and grow, not for personal attacks, unconstructive criticism, or misuse.

• Always remain polite and professional, even when disagreeing. Constructive discourse is encouraged; offensive or harmful behaviour is not.

• Posts must remain relevant to the topic and must add value to the discussion.

Zero tolerance applies to any content or interaction that is:

• Discriminatory, abusive, harassing, or defamatory

• Related to politics, religion, race, sexual content, or hate speech

• Misleading, spam-based, or commercially exploitative

Any such breach may result in immediate removal from CPDme platforms, revocation of membership, and, where necessary, reporting to professional regulators or legal authorities.

4. Ongoing Policy Awareness and Accountability

All members and followers of CPDme are expected to:

• Fully understand and comply with our social media and content guidelines

• Be aware that this policy is subject to change as new digital tools and regulations emerge

• Check back periodically to stay updated on the latest standards

Non-compliance may result in restricted platform access, suspension of membership, or legal consequences depending on the nature of the breach.

5. Public Information and Professional Titles

Many healthcare titles—such as Paramedic, Midwife, Radiographer, and Social Worker—are legally protected under UK law and regulated by governing bodies such as the HCPC, NMC, GMC, and Social Work England.

• CPDme takes the misuse of protected titles very seriously.

• Individuals falsely claiming a professional status or using a regulated title without registration will be reported to the appropriate regulatory authority.

As a member of the public, you have the right to verify whether a healthcare professional is registered and legally permitted to practice. CPDme supports this transparency in all our content and membership monitoring.

6. Commitment to Supporting Regulated Practice

CPDme was founded to promote excellence in professional development. We support members in:

• Documenting CPD effectively

• Navigating professional registration and career progression

• Gaining access to high-quality learning content aligned with regulatory expectations

All references to qualifications, courses, or educational content are made with the understanding that these complement, not replace, the formal education, accreditation, or registration requirements established by approved universities and statutory bodies.

If you have any concerns about this policy or wish to report a misuse of title or inappropriate conduct, please contact: team@cpdme.com
