9. PURCHASING DEALS
9.1 The Relationship You Have with the Merchant
We operate as a disclosed agent for our Merchants, so the contract of a Deal is between you and the Merchant. Because of this, there are likely to be more terms and conditions that apply to your Merchant contract, due to Merchants having their own terms pertinent to Deals. Any additional terms will be made known to you during the booking process. You can also contact us for details regarding the additional terms. You acknowledge that anyone booking with a Merchant shall comply with those terms.
9.2 In regards to a certain Deal, as agent, we have no contractual obligations to you.
9.3 We do not sell the Deals; that is the Merchant. In the event that you have a dispute or complaint concerning the Deals, that lies between you and the Merchant. We do provide contact information about the Merchant in the confirmation email and/or redemption instructions you get after purchasing a Deal. We will try our best to assist you in providing feedback to a Merchant if you choose to request or assistance.
9.4 The placing of a Deal will constitute consent for us to pass your details to the Merchant. We will share certain booking details with the Merchant because your contract is with the Merchant, not with us. You, therefore, accept that the Merchants are third parties, not a part of Procurement Tactics. We simply take on the role of agent for Merchants. When you choose to purchase a Deal, you give consent for Procurement Tactics to share your details with the Merchant.
9.5 You will get redemption instructions when you claim a Deal (for the majority of Deals), and you are to take the confirmation of the Deal with you to claim it.
9.6 On the Deal, it will show a specific time frame to claim the Deal. You must acknowledge that and show up during the time frame specified. If you fail to do so, the Deal may not be available any longer, and we may no longer allow you to use our services.
9.7 Some Deals have a maximum number cap. If it does, you will be made aware at the time of the booking.
9.8 If a Deal has been rescheduled or canceled, we will try, with reasonable efforts, to inform you of the situation. However, we cannot guarantee you will be notified before the time of the Deal. Therefore, it is your responsibility to determine if a Deal has been rescheduled or canceled and also your responsibility to determine the new date/time of rescheduling.
9.9 You claim a Deal by clicking the Deal that you want to claim and following the prompts on the screen. You can verify and correct any errors in your order until you click the “Confirm Booking” button in Procurement Tactics.
9.10 Certain Deals may require proof of identity and entitlement, such as age or student status.
9.11 Access to Procurement Tactics courses is granted for a standard period of 12 months and will automatically renew for another 12-month period unless the client opts out. Clients may opt out of auto-renewal at any time by providing written notice via email or other written communication to team@procurementtactics.com. To ensure smooth processing, we will notify clients of their upcoming renewal at least 14 days before the renewal date.
9.12 If you try to trade, resale, sale, copy, or counterfeit the Deal, your account will be canceled, and the Deal will become void.
9.13 Written consent is required from Procurement Tactics and Merchant if you want to use a Deal for promoting, advertising, contests, and/or sweepstakes.
9.14 In the event that you or your guests break any of the terms or conditions of the Deal or of the Merchant, the Merchant can choose to refuse or revoke admission of the Deal. Latecomers are not assured to get the Deal. The Merchants choose whether or not to allow latecomers. You do have rights to the services/products stated on the Deal; however, the Merchant has the right to serve alternative services/products at the same value stated in the Deal.
9.15 Procurement Tactics reserves the unconditional right to withdraw from any agreement, course enrollment, or service engagement at its sole discretion, at any time and for any reason. In such a case, the client will receive a full refund of all fees paid. This refund shall constitute the client’s sole and exclusive remedy, and Procurement Tactics shall bear no further liability arising from the withdrawal.
