You acknowledge and agree that these Terms and Conditions constitute the entire, complete and exclusive agreement between you and Haircare Group concerning your use of the Site and any purchase of Products which you make via the Site, and supersede and takes precedence over all prior communications and agreements between the parties.
Haircare Group may at any time, in its sole discretion, change these Terms and Conditions at any time by posting the changes on the Site. Any changes are effective immediately upon posting to the Site, or at such future time as may be indicated in the posting. Your continued use of the Site after a change has been posted to the Site constitutes your agreement to the revised Terms and Conditions. While Haircare Group will make all reasonable attempts to provide you with notice of any changes in accordance with Section (q), you acknowledge and agree that to the extent permitted by law, Haircare Group is under no obligation to notify you when these Terms and Conditions are amended, and that your continued use of the Site will constitute and signify your acceptance of any amendments made from time to time.

You expressly agree and acknowledge that you are not authorised or permitted to bind Haircare Group in any way whatsoever in relation to any contract or agreement with any third party, and agree that you will do all things necessary to give full effect to these Terms and Conditions and any transactions contemplated by them.
Haircare Group may, with or without prior notice and with or without cause, terminate any of the rights granted by these Terms and Conditions. You will comply immediately with any termination or other notice issued by Haircare Group to you, including, as applicable, by ceasing all use of the Site. Haircare Group's failure to require your performance of any provision of these Terms and Conditions will not affect its right to require such performance at any time thereafter, and nor will its waiver of a breach of any provision of these Terms and Conditions be taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself.
The relationship between you and Haircare Group is one of independent contractors, and nothing in these Terms and Conditions will be construed as creating any agency, partnership, or other form of joint enterprise or fiduciary relationship between the parties.
Every provision of these Terms and Conditions is independent of the other. In the event that any provision of these Terms and Conditions is unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law, such unenforceability or invalidity will not render these Terms and Conditions unenforceable or invalid as a whole. Rather, any provision which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will be ineffective to the extent only of such prohibition or unenforceability, and the other provisions will continue in full force and effect.
u. Data Security and Fraud Prevention
As specified in Section (a) above, Haircare Group uses the Windcave or Pin Payment (where appropriate) System for all purchases made directly via the Site. Accordingly, provided payment information (which may include personal information about you such as your name, address or payment information) is transmitted to the Windcave or Pin Payment (where appropriate) System for processing.
Haircare Group is not responsible for the operation of the Windcave or Pin payment (where appropriate) System, and separate terms and conditions and privacy policies apply to these.

If you do not agree with any of the terms and conditions or privacy policies which apply to the Windcave and Pin System (where appropriate), you must not submit an order for Products via the Site (and if you have submitted an order, you must immediately cancel it).

Haircare Group employs the latest 128-bit encryption technology in all areas of the Site which require you to provide your personal, payment or account information. This means that the credit card information you send is encrypted by your computer, and then decrypted again by Haircare Group, preventing others from accessing your private information in transit. The same process applies when Haircare Group transmits your information to the Windcave or Pin Payment System (where appropriate) to enable processing of your payment. Accordingly, when your provide credit card information on the Site, it is passed directly to the Windcave or Pin Payment System (Where appropriate) via an SSL secured payment gateway and is at no stage permanently stored on our website, in Haircare Group's database or on its server.
