Blanchard Terms and Conditions
General Purchase Terms
Blanchard’s General Purchase Terms are found here.
Below are Blanchard’s Online Subscription Terms, Trainer Terms, and terms related to Blanchard intellectual property and its usage.
Online Subscription Terms
These terms apply when Client has purchased online courses and/or products, which may include assessments and/or other learning aids, made available through various web-based platforms (“Subscription(s)”).
Assignment by Administrator
The administrator has eighteen (18) months from the date the order for the Subscriptions is placed (this is deemed the date of purchase) to assign Subscriptions to each Client end-user (“User(s)”).
Access by User
Each User has twelve (12) months from the date they were assigned the Subscription to use it. Subscriptions automatically expire twelve (12) months after the date of assignment, regardless of use.
Forfeiture
Failure to assign and/or use Subscriptions within the applicable time frames results in forfeiture. Refunds are not available for expired and/or forfeited Subscriptions. Subscriptions are nontransferable and cannot be shared and/or used by more than one User. It is Client’s responsibility to know the status of available Subscriptions and the applicable expiration date(s).
Tech Check
In order to confirm Client’s computer system meets the technical requirements to access Subscriptions, Client will be asked to review and agree to Blanchard’s standard technical requirements (“Tech Check”). The Tech Check will be conducted by Blanchard at no cost to Client.
Administration
“Administration” means sending out email invitations to Users, managing content distribution, managing classes/logistics, and providing basic technical support. For Subscriptions ordered by Client that are administered by Blanchard, Client will be charged a per-user administration fee unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties. Clients who elect to do their own administration will not be charged an administration fee and are responsible for the management of Users and accounting for Subscriptions. Blanchard will provide sufficient information and training, such as a one-hour training call/web conference, to enable the Client administrator to perform the administration tasks satisfactorily.
Accessibility of Subscriptions/Content Updates
Blanchard will use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Subscriptions accessible at all times, except for (i) planned downtime, which, to the extent practicable, will occur between Friday at 10PM PST/PDT and Monday at 6AM PST/PDT, and/or (ii) unavailability caused by a Force Majeure. Users will have access to content updates during the term of the Subscription.
Technical Support
The Technical Services Helpdesk is available for (i) email requests/inquiries at https://support.blanchard.com, Monday through Friday, 4AM–8PM EST/EDT (9AM–1AM BST/GMT), and (ii) telephone requests/inquiries, Monday through Friday, 7AM–8PM EST/EDT (except for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, where the available hours are 9AM–5PM BST/GMT) at 888-898-2667 (US and Canada); +1-760-839-8152 (International); +44(0)1483443489 (Europe, the Middle East, and Africa).
When Client has purchased an online assessment, the following terms also apply:
Confidentiality of Assessment Data
The Parties agree that assessments and resulting feedback reports (“Assessment Data”) will be used solely for Users’ developmental purposes. Assessment Data is to remain confidential to Users and/or raters (“Rater(s)”) selected by Users to participate in the assessment. This means that unless Users and/or Raters provide consent, other Client personnel are expected to maintain this privacy and not provide summaries and/or copies of the Assessment Data to others in such a way that confidentiality is compromised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Assessment Data can be aggregated if there are three or more Raters and, upon request, may be provided to authorized Client personnel.
Trainer Terms
