All software purchases are done so under the terms of our 25 year licence agreement - this is a legal contract. Pursuant to these contracts we hold all information regarding purchases in order to maintain a database of copyright licences.

Returns Policy:
Normally, consumers may cancel their order within seven days of placing it or within seven days from the receipt of goods (whichever is the longer). However, SSER Ltd. only sell digital software and printed masters (of the intellectual property contained therein) and as such our products are covered by Section 13 (d) of 'The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000' which states that 'a consumer does not have the right to cancel the contract if the goods are computer software and the goods have been unsealed by the consumer'.
Therefore, by breaking the copyright seal that protects the goods, or by using the Goods in any way (including downloadable software), the Buyer agrees to be bound by the terms of the Licence Agreement and to pay for the said goods if not already paid for.
If before breaking the copyright seal (that protects the goods) the Buyer does not agree to the terms of the Licence Agreement (a printed copy is provided with the goods), then the Buyer shall immediately ask SSER Ltd. for an official returns number. Nothing in these terms or Licence Agreement will affect the statutory rights of a consumer in 'consumer transactions' governed by the laws of England, Wales and EU regulations.
N.B. The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 define "consumer" as meaning any natural person who, in the contracts covered by these Regulations, is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business or profession.
Remittance Terms:
For orders placed by educational establishments such as Schools the terms will be 30 days. Private Nurseries will have to pay with order as do all other businesses and private consumers.
