Our products include a range of food/drink intolerance/sensitivity testing kits (“Testing Kits“) as further described in these terms and on our website at www.yorktest.com/us/ (“Website“). We may also sell other products and services as described on our Website from time to time.

4.2 If you have purchased a Testing Kit, in order to undertake your test and receive the results of your test, you will need to create an account on our online Wellness Hub at https://wellnesshub.yorktest.com/us/ and activate the Testing Kit by entering the unique bar code for that Testing Kit within your online Wellness Hub account. You should not order a Testing Kit if you do not wish to create an account on our online Wellness Hub. There is no cost to you for creating such an account with us.

4.3 When you order a Testing Kit, we will deliver this to you in accordance with these terms. Once you receive your Testing Kit, you simply need to follow the instructions which are provided with the Testing Kit which includes how to take a blood sample with our finger-prick easy to use kit (“Sample“) and to return the Testing Kit and send the Sample back in the prepaid envelope. We (or one of our laboratory partners ("Laboratory Partners") will carry out a test on your Sample and then we will send you your test results (“Test Results“) within seven (7) working days (from the date we receive your Sample), unless there are delays outside of our control in which case we shall inform you of such delays. Please note that when you purchase a Testing Kit, you are purchasing our testing service as set out in these terms. Each Testing Kit comes with an expiry date and you are required to send the Sample to us within the relevant expiry period or we may not be able to provide the testing services on the Sample provided.

4.3 Where you have purchased a Testing Kit for a food/drink intolerance/sensitivity test, the test will be an IgG antibody test. We will use the defined and CE marked Yorktest Laboratories IgG food intolerance/sensitivity test which uses the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method to detect IgG antibodies in your Sample.

4.4 For food intolerance testing, the Test Results will be provided for each IgG antibody food/drink reaction categorised into ‘normal reactivity, ‘borderline’, or ‘high reactivity’ and a reactivity value may be provided for each food/drink ingredient tested. We test for over 200 food and drink ingredients for our Premium Food Intolerance Test and over 100 food and drink ingredients for our Junior Food Intolerance Test. We undertake a high standard of quality control processes in our laboratory during testing which may result in reporting of fewer food and drink ingredients than were tested.

4.5 You agree that our IgG antibody tests are not designed to indicate an allergic reaction to individual food/drinks or food/drink groups covered by the test. We accept no responsibility for any condition or symptoms that you may develop caused by an allergic reaction.

4.6 You agree that raised levels of IgG antibodies within a person's blood indicates that an IgG antibody reaction to a particular food or drink has occurred. If you have already taken the decision to eliminate a particular food or drink and have not been eating that food or drink for over six weeks, it may not show up on your Test Results.

4.7 Our IgG antibody tests are not guaranteed to identify food/drink reactions that you suffer from, specifically in the following circumstances:

(a) where any food/drink or food/drink group has not been regularly consumed as part of your diet for at least six weeks prior to the test; or

(b) where you are taking prescribed drugs such as immunosuppressant’s, cytotoxic drugs, or steroids, you understand that reactions may be suppressed but that if reactions are present they may be significant.

4.8 You should consult your medical practitioner about any symptoms of allergic reactions in the first instance, and also consult your medical practitioner with your Test Results, particularly in the following circumstances:

(a) if you are unsure of the difference between food sensitivities, food intolerance or food allergies; or

(b) where you are taking any prescribed drugs or medication.

4.9 If we offer an allergy test, where you order a Testing Kit for an allergy test, we will test and issue Test Results for your level of IgE mediated food and environmental allergens in the blood. You accept that if you are not currently suffering from clinical symptoms, or have been avoiding a known allergen that this can affect the Test Results and reactions may not show up as positive.

4.10 You accept the presence of IgE antibodies is an indication that you may be allergic to that particular substance (allergen) but is not a definite diagnosis on its own. If you have previously been advised of a food and/or environmental allergy but your Test Result does not show a positive result, you must continue to avoid that known allergen.

4.11 Where you submit the correct blood Sample in relation to any Testing Kits that we offer, then we, or one of our Laboratory Partners, will undertake the test in accordance with its approved procedures. We will then issue the Test Result.

4.12 Quality control measures will be taken when assessing each Sample to confirm that our test system is working correctly. We will not issue a Test Result, unless the quality control measures have passed our defined specifications.

4.13 We and our Laboratory Partners do not retain your blood Sample after testing and will only test Samples which you have instructed us to test (by posting the Sample to us). We do not undertake any DNA or genetic testing.

4.14 Product packaging may vary. The packaging of the product may vary from that shown in images on our website.

4.17 Upon purchase of a Testing Kit and/or upon activating your Testing Kit on our online Wellness Hub, you agree to the terms of our Privacy Policy, including but not limited to, granting your consent for us to use your test results data on an anonymised basis for the purpose of collating and publishing statistics relating to your test results.

In this instance another Sample is required and we may at our discretion issue free of charge another Testing Kit for you to complete and send back. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or you do not send us a
correct Sample then we may end the contract and section 10.2 will apply. We cannot be held responsible for the damage, loss or theft of a Sample that has not been received by us.

If your order has not been delivered in thirty days of our acceptance, you have the option to cancel your order, provided that you have not caused the delay (for example, because you gave us to wrong address or did not re-arrange delivery). If you wish, you can reject or cancel the order for some of those goods (not all of them), unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. After this, we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled goods and their delivery. If the goods have been delivered to you, you must post the goods back to us or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you at your delivery address.

If you have ordered a Testing Kit, then you do not own the Testing Kit at any time and ownership of the Testing Kit remains with us. The Testing Kit is provided to you in order for you to provide us with a Sample, which allows us to provide you with a Test Result accordingly.

7.11 What will happen if you do not give required information to us. We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the products to you, for example, your delivery address. If so, this will have been stated in the description of the products on our website. We will contact you to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and section 10.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for the late supply of our products or not supplying any part of our products, if the delay or non-supply is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

However please see section 12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.

12.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of sales tax.

You must pay for products and services that you order before we dispatch them. Where you have paid by cheque, we will not despatch your order until the monies have transferred into our account.

12.5 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date, we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 3% a year above the base lending rate of HSBC’s bank from time to time or such lesser amount that is permitted by applicable law. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.

12.6 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think you have been charged an incorrect amount by us, please contact us promptly via the contact details provided at section 2.2 You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.

13. Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you

13.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

13.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products as summarised at section 11.2.

13.3 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

14. How we may use your personal information

14.1 How we may use your personal information. We may use and disclose your personal information as set out in our Privacy Policy, at https://www.yorktest.com/us/privacy-policy/

15. Other important terms

15.1 We may transfer this agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract. If you are unhappy with the transfer you may contact us to end the contract within 14 days of us telling you about it and we will refund you any payments you have made in advance for products not provided.

15.2 You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing.

15.3 Nobody else has any rights under this contract. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.

15.4 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

15.5 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.

15.6 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.
