Changes
We may need to change these terms to reflect changes in law or to deal with additional features which we introduce.
We will give you notice of any changes by notifying you when you next start the App.
If you do not accept the notified changes, you will not be permitted to use the App.
We may change our subscription prices. We will give you reasonable notice of any price increase or material change. If you do not agree, you may cancel before the changes take effect and you will not be charged the increased price.
Continued use after any changes take effect constitutes acceptance of any changes.
Your Subscription
Our subscription plans and prices are set out at the point of registration. You can get further information via our Live Chat in app. Prices include VAT unless otherwise stated. If VAT or other applicable taxes change, we will adjust the price accordingly. We may change prices from time to time.
When you submit your details for a subscription, you make an offer to purchase access to our App and the related services on these terms. The contract is not formed until you receive confirmation to the email address provided.
You authorise us to charge the subscription fees to your selected payment method on the billing dates shown within the App. Payment is due in advance for each subscription period, whether this be a monthly, quarterly or annual subscription.
We do not provide physical invoices unless required by law, but you may view and download receipts in your account.
Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period for the same term at the then-current price, unless you cancel before renewal. We will send you a clear remind of your upcoming renewal and how to cancel. You can switch off auto-renewal at any time in your account.
Free Trials and Promotional Offers
We may offer free trials or promotional pricing. The duration and any conditions will be stated at sign-up. At the end of a free trial, your subscription will convert to a paid subscription, and your payment method will be charged at the then-current price unless you cancel before the trial ends. We will provide clear information on how to cancel before charges apply.
Updates to the App
From time to time, we may automatically update the App to fix errors, address security, or comply with regulations. Alternatively, we may ask you to update the App for these reasons.
Significant changes to the App will be communicated where possible.
If you choose not to install such updates or if you opt out of automatic updates you may not be able to continue using the App.
While we aim for continuous availability, temporary suspensions for updates or emergencies may occur but advanced notice will be given where possible.
Nature of Information and Relationship
The App functions to connect Dental Practitioners with Users, but all Practitioners are independent and solely responsible for medical advice and recommendations.
The App complies with applicable healthcare and data protection laws.
Content provided by the Services, including responses to your questions, may involve dental professionals but does not constitute dental advice, diagnosis, or create a dentist-patient relationship. Information is for scheduling, informational, and payment purposes only, primarily from independent health professionals and organisations. Tooth Fairy Healthcare Ltd does not guarantee responses to questions or the availability of a Practitioner at any time.
The services provided within the App are not meant to replace or be used instead of the NHS or your regular dental visits.
Information from our app, site, or any related communications is not a substitute for professional dental advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Do not delay or disregard consulting a qualified healthcare practitioner because of content accessed through our Services. In emergencies, seek immediate physical medical attention and call 999. Use of Information is solely at your own risk, and we do not endorse specific tests, practitioners, or opinions found through the Services.
No Dental Professional-Patient Relationship
Use of the Services or information provided through Tooth Fairy Healthcare Ltd does not establish a dental professional/patient relationship. We make no guarantees about Practitioner qualifications, advice, or availability, nor do we endorse any individuals listed through the Services. Users should independently verify Practitioners and always follow up online advice with an in-person examination.
Consultations
Consultation allocation is based on Practitioner availability and objective criteria. Practitioners with agreements with Tooth Fairy Healthcare Ltd provide consultations, but we do not recommend or endorse any Practitioner, nor do we receive extra fees for featuring any Practitioner.
Practitioners must hold valid licences and certifications, and we may exclude those who engage in inappropriate or unprofessional conduct.
We have no control over and cannot guarantee the availability of any Healthcare Practitioner at any time.
Services and Prescriptions
Account registration is required. Information provided during registration must be current and accurate.
The Services may display Practitioner pricing; payment information is processed per our Privacy Policy. Before booking, review consent to treatment, service pricing, and included/excluded services. Responsibility for agreeing to additional or different services lies with you and your practitioner.
Consultations are charged in 10-minute sessions; purchases must be in full increments, with no refunds for unused minutes. The quality of your connection is your responsibility.
An Electronic Medical Record (EMR) is created from submitted information, notes, and prescriptions. This EMR may be shared or analysed for audits or in response to lawful requests. You may request a copy or restrict access as outlined in the Privacy Policy.
Tooth Fairy Healthcare Ltd acts as data controller for platform operations and user management; Practitioners are independent data controllers regarding clinical matters.
Video consultations are recorded for quality and security, retained as necessary, and are not public. Access to recordings is limited.
Prescriptions are valid only at legal UK pharmacies for personal use. Prescribing is subject to restrictions and costs are set by and paid to the dispensing pharmacy. We do not set prescription fees or guarantee replacement of lost prescriptions. If you cannot authorise payment, services are not provided.
Products and services may not be appropriate for all users, and we make no representations regarding their safety or effectiveness. Advertised third-party products are for awareness only.
Use of Automated Systems
The Web App may use automated systems, including artificial intelligence, for administrative functions, but these do not replace independent professional judgement. All clinical decisions are by Practitioners. Outputs from automated systems depend on information you provide and may not reflect individual circumstances.
We will provide transparency about the use of automated systems as required by law.
