Common use of Internet Communication Clause in Contracts

Internet Communication. Unless you instruct us otherwise we may, where appropriate, communicate with you and with third parties via e-mail or other electronic means. However, internet communications are capable of data corruption and therefore we do not accept any responsibility for changes made to such communications after their dispatch. We do not accept responsibility for any errors or problems that may arise through the use of internet communication and all risks connected with sending sensitive information relating to your financial affairs are borne by you. If you do not agree to accept this risk, you should notify us in writing that e-mail is not an acceptable means of communication. It is the responsibility of the recipient to carry out a virus check on any attachments received. Persons who are not party to this agreement shall have no rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any terms of this agreement. This clause does not affect any right or remedy of any person which exists or is available otherwise than pursuant to that Act. The advice that we give you is for your sole use and is confidential to you and will not constitute advice for any third party to whom you may communicate it. We accept no responsibility to third parties for any aspect of our professional services or work that is made available to them. Not all firms charge for advice in the same way. We will discuss your payment options with you and answer any questions you may have. We will not charge you anything until you have agreed how we will be paid and how much. We offer an initial consultation with a Diploma qualified and FCA regulated Financial Planning Consultant. This helps us to understand your financial circumstances, objectives and priorities and establish how we can help you. We do not charge for this consultation.
