Website Terms of Sale - Online Music Teaching (B2C)
These Website Terms of Sale - Online Music Teaching (B2C) are designed for music teachers and teaching providers offering online music tuition to consumers on a subscription basis.
They can be used where the student is an adult or a minor, and cover access to live or recorded online lessons together with downloadable supporting materials.
Use these terms for subscription-based online music tuition
Where the student is an adult, the contract is with the student. Where the student is under 18, the contract is with the student’s parent or guardian, and the template includes provisions that reflect that position.
The template is suitable for teaching any musical instrument. It also includes optional instrument-specific provisions in the attachment for piano, electric instruments, drum kit, and other instruments as needed.
Covers different lesson formats and online delivery
The subscription can cover single or multiple video sessions together with downloadable background materials. It is flexible enough to support different methods of delivery, including:
- Live one-to-one two-way lessons
- Pre-recorded on-demand teaching sessions
- Live one-way streamed lessons
- Live interactive group classes
Each subscription can provide access to a specific live lesson date or to a stated access period for pre-recorded content, with the relevant details set out on the website and confirmed in the order.
Designed for online-only music teaching
These terms assume that everything sold under them is provided online only. They are not suitable where teaching takes place in person or where physical items such as sheet music, instruments, accessories, CDs, or DVDs are supplied.
The template also assumes that the student or parent/guardian must create an account before purchasing lessons, although doing so does not commit them to a purchase.
Includes platform-specific, instrument-specific, and consumer law provisions
An attachment to the main terms deals with the use of a cloud-based web conferencing platform such as Zoom. Most of the provisions specific to online delivery sit in that attachment, including technology requirements, account security, privacy, health and safety, student responsibilities, and instrument-related requirements.
The main terms cover the order process, contract formation, pricing, payment, provision of paid content, licensing, complaints, liability, contact information, and data protection.
Particular care should be taken over how paid content is described on the website and in the terms, especially in relation to what the subscription includes.
Cancellation rights are addressed in detail, including the 14-day cooling-off period granted to consumers under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.
This template applies only to the sale of content, leaving the terms governing use of the website itself to a separate document.
