These Terms and Conditions, together with the service detailed in a Membership Agreement if provided on joining, govern the sale and provision of the service and form the contract you are entering into between us, Pi Society Limited. These Terms and Conditions replace any Pi Society Limited Terms and Conditions previously issued or displayed on our website.

The price payable for the services is as set out on the Membership Agreement issued for new members, and is inclusive of any applicable VAT. We take payment upon receipt of your order and accept no liability if services are delayed where payment is not received by us. If it is not possible to obtain full payment, then we may refuse to process your order and/or suspend services.  By your purchase of a membership from us you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. You are entering into a contract based on these Terms and Conditions on the date we receive your first payment irrespective of whether you have signed any Membership Agreement.

Membership You are required not to be in a relationship and to provide us with true and accurate information, and we reserve the right to decline applications. Whilst all members are interviewed, and ID verified, we accept the particulars given to us in good faith. We advise you to verify the particulars of others for yourself and we cannot accept any liability for the validity of the information we provide. Your safety is very important, and we advise that you read our Dating Safety Handbook and take sensible precautions when meeting others. You acknowledge we will not be liable under any circumstances, for any loss or damage caused by, or in connection with our services.

Your Service Your matchmaking can commence after your profiling interview, and we have all the necessary documents from you including your approval of your dating profile. Your service may include additional services to matchmaking, if these are specified in any Membership Agreement provided on joining. It is your responsibility to request any services during your membership. Any additional services that may have been specified in any Membership Agreement supplied will not be available once your membership has ended.

Where the term “Recommendations”, is included in any Membership Agreement supplied on joining, “Recommendations” is defined as profiles of others selected and put forward to you. You accept that we do not guarantee the outcomes of the Recommendations we will put forward and that those we recommend to you will not necessarily agree to proceeding further and/or to meeting you, as the choices made by others is not within our control.

For the avoidance of doubt, all Recommendations supplied to you will count towards any number of Recommendations that may have been guaranteed in a Membership Agreement provided on joining, whether or not either of the parties involved agree to being put in touch with each other.

Recommendations will be put forward subject to availability and whilst you confirm you are still seeking a partner through our service. If you no longer wish to receive Recommendations from us, then we will not be required to supply further Recommendations. The number of Recommendations we will put forward depends upon your characteristics and how narrow or otherwise your partner preferences are. We reserve the right and absolute discretion to recommend others to you who we consider might be acceptable, notwithstanding that these persons may only match your partner preferences to a degree, as this approach has proved successful for many of our clients.

As we want to help create opportunities for members to meet each other, you may from time to time, be offered additional profiles as a “Bonus Match” based on other members’ partner preferences. In such instances we will make clear this is a Bonus Match and these will only then count towards any written guarantee given on joining, if you choose to accept them. You understand and accept that unless you were provided with written guarantees on joining, then there is no guarantee of the number of recommendations we will supply to you.

Our matchmaking can include the sourcing of potential partners from beyond our current membership and we reserve the right to recommend to you, others who may have been retained through these means and may not have paid a fee. However, all those we recommend to you from whatever source, will first have been ID verified and interviewed.

It remains entirely your responsibility to let us know whenever you would like to receive a Recommendation and we would not normally supply further Recommendations to you when you have indicated you do not wish to receive them. In such instances, the service may be suspended and can be reactivated when you ask us to do so, provided there is still service time available, as detailed in your Membership Agreement.

We will fulfil any written guarantees given on a Membership Agreement if such an Agreement was supplied to you on joining, even if where necessary, we need to extend the period of service and provided that you wish the service to continue. This guarantee is subject to no significant change in your own circumstances or partner preferences after your profiling interview likely to make matchmaking more difficult or impossible.

Conduct requirements We will treat you and all members with courtesy and respect and expect and require the same from all members.
