SAKINA PLATFORM SERVICES
In consideration of payment by the Therapist of the Commission and the Therapist performing all its other obligations herein and subject to this Agreement, Sakina Platform shall provide the applicable Sakina Platform Services to the Therapist, which shall (unless otherwise agreed) include a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and fully revocable licence to use the Portal.
In respect of all sessions, Sakina Platform shall act and is hereby appointed as agent for the Therapist to conclude the Session with a Client and (where applicable) collect and process payments on behalf of the Therapist and nothing herein shall prevent or limit the Therapist from remaining fully responsible and liable for their provision and supply of Therapist Services to Clients.
PORTAL SOFTWARE LICENCE
The Therapist may use the Portal for the purpose of processing Sessions of Therapist Services for and on behalf of itself only. All Therapists are eligible to use the Portal.
The Therapist’s use of the Portal is at the Therapist’s sole risk. The service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
Technical support is provided by email primarily and is a benefit for the Therapist, but is not a right of the Therapist.
The Therapist understands and accepts that Sakina Platform uses third party vendors and hosting Therapists to provide the hardware, software, networking, storage, and related technology required to run the Portal. The Therapist also acknowledges and agrees that Sakina Platform shall have administrator’s access to all parts of the Portal, including those parts that have been specifically tailored for the Therapist.
The Therapist shall not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit the whole or any part of the Portal, or allow any third party (including group companies of the Therapist) to use or access the Portal without express prior written permission from Sakina Platform (which may be denied or granted on such terms as Sakina Platform in its sole discretion may determine).
Sakina Platform does not warrant:
- that the Portal will meet the Therapist’s specific requirements;
- that the Portal will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free;
- that any information or results that may be obtained from the use of the Portal will be accurate or reliable;
- that the quality of any products, services, information, or other material purchased or obtained by the Therapist through the Portal will meet the Therapist’s requirements or expectations; or
- that any errors in the Portal will be corrected.
The Therapist expressly understands and agrees that as regards use of the Portal Sakina Platform shall not be liable for any loss of income or profits, loss of contracts, loss of goodwill, loss of data, or other intangible losses or for any indirect or consequential loss or damage (even if Sakina Platform has been advised by the Therapist of the possibly of such loss or damage) resulting from:
- the Therapist’s use of, or inability to use, the Portal;
- unauthorised access to or alteration of the Therapist’s transmissions or data;
- statements or conduct of any third party on the Portal; or
- any other matter relating to the Portal.
Calendar Synchronisation with Third-Party Service Provider
- Use of Third-Party Service Provider for Calendar Synchronisation
Sakina incorporates the services of a third-party service provider for calendar synchronization. This feature is intended to enhance the functionality of the Sakina Platform, allowing therapists to synchronise their personal calendars with the platform. This enables Sakina to view therapists' availability and assist in managing bookings, such as adding, deleting, or rescheduling appointments made through the Sakina Platform.
- Limitations on Calendar Editing
While Sakina can manage bookings through its platform, it does not have the capability to alter events on therapists' calendars that are not directly related to Sakina bookings. Therapists' non-Sakina events remain private and are not affected by the synchronisation feature.
- Compliance with Google API Services User Data Policy
For Therapists using Google Calendar, Sakina's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. This ensures that data from Google APIs is utilized in a manner consistent with Google's data protection and privacy policies.
- Data Security and Privacy
Sakina is committed to the highest standards of data security and privacy. All data synchronisation through the third-party service provider will be governed by stringent security measures to protect Therapists' information and ensure confidentiality.
- Consent and Revocation
By agreeing to these terms, Therapists consent to the synchronisation of their calendars with Sakina via the third-party service provider. Therapists have the option to revoke this consent at any time. However, it is crucial to understand that revoking synchronisation will make their availability invisible to clients on the Sakina platform, thereby preventing the making or managing of bookings through Sakina.
THERAPIST OBLIGATIONS
In consideration of receiving the Sakina Platform Services, the Therapist agrees to pay all applicable Commission to Sakina Platform and to accept all Sessions and process and supply the Therapist Services to the highest professional standards and in line with any specific terms and conditions set out in this Agreement. A breach of this will be a Material Breach of this Agreement.
All Bookings will be accepted automatically without Therapists approval and will be added to the Platform as , by therapists indicating how many hours in advance clients can make booking.
In respect of all Bookings, the Therapist is obliged to comply with the cancellation and rescheduling policy set out in the Client’s Terms and Conditions. In summary:
Sakina Platform will offer a refund in respect of Bookings which are cancelled (or unable to be rescheduled) provided the relevant appointment is not due to take place within 48 hours of receipt by Sakina Platform of the cancellation.
If a Client wishes to change the date and/or time of a Session, provided the Client gives at least 48 hours prior to the time of the appointment, the Client can choose a suitable alternative Session time and/or date.
If a Therapist wishes to change the date and/or time of a Session, Sakina Platform will treat the Booking as cancelled by the Therapist and will refund the Client the full amount of the Booking. However, if Sakina Platform deems it reasonable to do so in the circumstances, and at Sakina Platform’s sole discretion, Sakina Platform may still require the Therapist to pay the applicable amount of Commission that would have been due from the Therapist in respect of that Booking.
The Therapist is responsible for ensuring that all Therapist Content (especially details of and fees for the Therapist Services) that it publishes or provides to Sakina Platform to publish on the Page(s) is accurate, correct and not misleading. The Therapist should only upload photographs to its Page(s) which the Therapist has a right to use. Any breach of this clause is a Material Breach of this Agreement.
The Therapist agrees that any content they publish, or provide to Sakina Platform for publication, will not include contact details or links to external websites. Clients are entitled to one free initial consultation, which the Therapist is obligated to conduct.
Sakina Platform reserve the right to suspend a therapist's account without notice if a Therapist has been asked to make changes to their Profile based on this Agreement but has not completed the changes requested within a reasonable timeframe.
The Therapist must at all times supply the Therapist Services on the Website at a fee which is the same or lower than that offered on the Therapist's own website or any other platforms where the Therapist offers their Services.
The Therapist agrees to charge the same fee for initial Sessions and follow-on Sessions unless there is an appropriate reason to charge a higher or lower fee, such as offering longer follow-on Sessions.
The Therapist agrees to not offer discounted or promotional rates for initial Sessions via the Sakina Platform to avoid any potential confusion regarding payments for follow-on Sessions.
The Therapist will adopt a standard set of Client Terms and Conditions. It is particularly drawn to Therapist’s attention that Clients, as a matter of law, will not be bound by any terms and conditions in respect of an Booking if those terms and conditions were not brought to the attention of the Client prior to their placing the Booking.
The Therapist is solely responsible for ensuring that the information on the Portal regarding time and date availability is kept completely up to date so that potential Clients are able to view the accurate time and date availability at the time of making a Booking.
Sakina Platform reserves the right to suspend a Therapist's account without notice if multiple initial or follow-on Sessions are cancelled or rearranged due to the Therapist's availability not being kept up to date; if multiple sessions are cancelled due to being unconfirmed by the therapist; if a therapist does not attend a session at the time agreed with a Client; if a Therapist does not ensure Clients are made aware of any need to cancel or reschedule Bookings at short notice due to unforeseen circumstances; or if a therapist is uncontactable or unresponsive to communications from Clients or the Platform.
If the Clients do not show up at the Session, if payment has been received, the Session will be treated by Sakina Platform as completed and Sakina Platform shall be entitled to receive Commission in respect of that Session.
The Therapist shall not solicit Clients derived from the Sakina Platform to make Bookings otherwise than through the Website.
Where a Client makes a Booking and the Therapist encourages that Client to cancel their Booking and make a separate Booking directly with the Therapist, the Therapist shall be in Material Breach of this Agreement.
If Sakina Platform has reasonable grounds to suspect that the Therapist has made or makes any direct or indirect attempt to avoid paying any Commission, for example without limitation, by fraudulently flagging a Session as a cancellation or non-chargeable, this shall be a Material Breach of this Agreement and shall give Sakina Platform the right, without limiting other remedies available to it, to withhold and retain any payments due to the Therapist under this Agreement.
CLIENT SERVICE AND COMPLAINTS
The Therapist shall use best endeavours to provide high quality Therapist Services to all Clients and shall at all times act in accordance with best practice established by all and any professional bodies of which the Therapist is a member or is affiliated with.
The Therapist will notify Sakina Platform if any investigations are initiated or complaints made against them or upheld by any professional bodies of which the Therapist is a member or is affiliated with. The Therapist will also be required to confirm this information on a yearly basis to ensure the information the Platform holds is still accurate.
The Therapist consents to have their performance measured and presented to prospective Clients (including but not limited to Client retention, Client reviews and responsiveness to new Bookings) for quality purposes.
Sakina Platform reserves the right to suspend a therapist's account without notice. Sakina will inform the Therapist via email or via their Dashboard if we take this action, and inform the Therapist of how to rectify the situation where appropriate, however, Sakina Platform does reserve the right to permanently remove a Therapist's profile if multiple instances of poor feedback are received, or if we cannot confidently guarantee a high level of quality in the services a Therapist offers to Clients.
The Therapist shall promptly deal with any enquiries, matters or issues relating to Sessions including dealing with Client complaints.
The Therapist shall be directly responsible to the Client for any failure to fulfil the Client’s expectations or for any other legal liability which arises in respect of the Therapist Services, except where such liability arises as a result of Sakina Platform’s negligence.
Sakina Platform shall refer any Client complaints it receives to the Therapist and the Therapist shall acknowledge all complaints, and shall respond to the relevant Client within 96 hours of the Therapist’s receipt of a complaint (whether the complaint has come directly from the Client or via Sakina Platform).
The Therapist shall make all efforts to reach a resolution to any complaints within 10 days and must notify Sakina Platform of any correspondence between the Therapist and the Client relating to the complaint and generally keep Sakina Platform apprised of its progress and the status of the complaint.
The Therapist acknowledges and accepts that the Website includes a reviewing platform, on which Clients may post publicly viewable reviews about their experiences with Sakina Platform and with the Therapist (particularly in relation to the Therapist Services) (“User Generated Content”). The Therapist should note that the review platform may not be opted out from and may from time to time contain negative reviews and/or feedback from Clients, which is outside Sakina Platform’s control. There may be an option for the Therapist, if they are the subject of any User Generated Content, to reply to reviews about them. However, any content the Therapist posts in response to User Generated Content must be polite and professional and non-threatening or confrontational, and it may be subject to review by Sakina Platform (and may be removed or amended in Sakina Platform’s sole discretion if Sakina Platform deems it reasonably necessary to do so). The Therapist shall have no right to any remedy (including without limitation, any right to terminate this Agreement) as a result of any User Generated Content naming or referring to the Therapist. However, if the Therapist, acting reasonably, feels that any User Generated Content is defamatory of the Therapist or any person or in some other way is a violation of any person’s legal rights, the Therapist may flag and report that User Generated Content to Sakina Platform. In such case, Sakina Platform shall review the same and in its sole discretion take any action it deems necessary or desirable (including, for example, removing or amending the relevant piece of User Generated Content). This is in addition to any legal rights the Therapist may have against the person or persons who created the User Generated Content.
Sakina Platform provides all clients with a complimentary 15-minute initial session, enabling them to determine if the therapist is a suitable match for their needs.
CLIENT DATA
For the purposes of this clause, “data controller”, “data processor”, “personal data”, “process” and “processing” shall have the meanings given to them in the DPA.
Sakina Platform and the Therapist acknowledge that, for the purposes of the DPA Sakina Platform is the data controller and the Therapist is the data processor of any Client personal data including special categories of personal data.
The Therapist may not use Client personal data collected through the Portal for any purpose other than fulfilment of the relevant Session.
The Therapist may collect Client personal data separately and directly by itself (for example, where Clients have booked Therapist Services otherwise than through use of the Sakina Platform Services and where the Therapist has separately obtained permission directly from the Client to use their data), in which case, in respect of that data, the Therapist shall be the data controller of that Client personal data for the purpose of the DPA.
When the Therapist is processing Client personal data as a data processor for Sakina Platform (e.g. personal data on the Portal) the Therapist shall:
- process the personal data only in accordance with instructions from Sakina Platform (which may be specific instructions or instructions of a general nature);
- comply with all UK Data Protection Legislation;
- process the personal data only to the extent and in such manner as is necessary or as is required by law or by any regulatory body;
- promptly comply with any request from Sakina Platform requiring it to amend, transfer or delete the personal data;
- implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the personal data against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, damage, alteration or disclosure;
- take all reasonable steps to ensure the reliability of its staff and agents who may have access to the personal data and ensure that such staff and agents (a) are informed of the confidential nature of the personal data; and (b) have undertaken training in the laws relating to handling personal data;
- not cause or permit the personal data to be published, disclosed or divulged, or transferred to a third party or to be transferred outside of the European Economic Area without the prior consent of Sakina Platform; and
- notify Sakina Platform within one (1) Business Days of any potential data breach or if it receives any complaint, notice or communication which relates directly or indirectly to the processing of the personal data or to either party's compliance with the DPA and the data protection principles set out therein, and it shall provide Sakina Platform with full cooperation and assistance in relation to any such complaint, notice or communication.
THERAPIST WARRANTIES AND INDEMNITY
The Therapist shall provide Sakina Platform with any Therapist Content it reasonably requires to be provided with in order to supply the Sakina Platform Services.
The Therapist warrants that all Therapist Content it supplies to Sakina Platform in connection with this Agreement and/or publishes (or provides to Sakina Platform for publication) on the Website will be accurate in all material respects and shall not infringe any other person’s rights (including Intellectual Property Rights) or be defamatory, unlawful, offensive, threatening, or pornographic or otherwise falling below general standards of taste and decency.
The Therapist hereby grants Sakina Platform the right:
- to use and publish the Therapist Content in connection with the provision of Sakina Platform Services;
- to remove, edit, cut-down or otherwise amend Therapist Content published on any Pages, including without limitation where such Therapist Content does not, in Sakina Platform’s opinion comply with the warranties, or is otherwise in breach of the terms of this Agreement; and
- to make use of search engine optimisation services and other mechanisms that embody, incorporate or quote (in whole or part) the trading name of the Therapist or any brands used in connection with the Therapist Services.
The Therapist warrants, represents and undertakes that it shall comply with all applicable laws and advertising regulations in the marketing, sale and provision of the Therapist Services and shall obtain all licences, consents, authorities and insurance it is either necessary or reasonably prudent for the Therapist to obtain in respect of all its business activities and personnel (but especially in connection with the provision of Therapist Services).
Any breach of these warranties will be a Material Breach of this Agreement.
The Therapist hereby agrees to indemnify, keep indemnified and hold harmless Sakina Platform and its officers, directors and employees, from and against any and all claims, demands, obligations, actual or alleged causes of action and lawsuits and all damages, liabilities, fines, judgments, costs (including settlement costs), expenses associated therewith (including the payment of reasonable legal charges and disbursements) and losses (including but not limited to any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit, loss of reputation and all interest, penalties and legal costs (calculated on a full indemnity basis)) and all other reasonable professional costs and expenses arising out of or in connection with any breach by the Therapist of any term of this Agreement or arising out of any action brought by any third party relating to the Therapist Services provided (or not provided), or actions (or failure to act), of the Therapist or any person (other than Sakina Platform) acting on its behalf, including, without limitation any action brought in connection with any Data Protection Legislation, Therapist Content or a Client visit to the Therapist's venue.
The Therapist acknowledges that Sakina Platform enters into this Agreement for its own benefit but also as an agent for the benefit and on behalf of each of its officers, directors and employees (each an “Indemnified Third Party” and, collectively, the “Indemnified Third Parties”’) and that the rights in respect of indemnification set out shall be rights and benefits of each such Indemnified Third Party (as if, in each case, a party to this Agreement in its own right). Such rights shall be enforceable under this Agreement by Sakina Platform as agent for each such Indemnified Third Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Therapist and Sakina Platform may agree in writing to amend any provision of this Agreement without the consent of any of the Indemnified Third Parties, even if that amendment affects or will affect the rights conferred on any Indemnified Third Party hereunder.
This Clause shall survive the termination or expiry of this Agreement.
PAYMENT TERMS
Sakina Platform has distinct payment structures based on client categories:
- Corporate Clients: Sakina will charge £60 per session for corporate clients. The commission rate for Sakina Platform will be £6.00 per session, plus any applicable taxes. Full payment from companies may take between 7 to 30 days to be received, and efforts will be made to expedite this process as much as possible.
- University Students: For university students, the rate is £40 per session, which includes VAT or any equivalent tax. The commission rate for Sakina Platform will be £4.00 per session, plus any applicable taxes. These sessions must be prepaid by the students before booking.
- General Access Sessions: For general access clients, therapists must charge the standard rate as advertised on any other platforms, including their own websites. This rate should be equal to or less than the rate mentioned on these platforms. Sessions for general access clients require prepayment before bookings are confirmed.
This revised structure is intended to provide clarity and ensure fairness across different client groups, while also aligning with Sakina Platform's commitment to accessibility and professional service standards.
The Therapist will receive their income from Sessions within 5 working days (after Sakina receives payment from its payment provider or a corporate client), or on the following Saturday, whichever is later.
These fees are subject to change, and any updates will be communicated with a 30-day notice period.
If the therapist has any concerns regarding any fees received or commission charged, the therapist should contact team@sakina.io.
