Terms and Conditions of Service
ProTalent Hub Terms and Conditions of Service
1. General Terms of Service By enrolling in ProTalent Hub, the Client agrees to abide by all studio policies outlined in this Contract. The Studio reserves the right to modify these terms at its discretion, with any updates communicated in writing. Continued participation in Studio activities following any updates constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
2. Payment Policy
All payments must be made in advance of scheduled sessions. Invoices will specify the payment due date, and failure to pay by the deadline may result in the cancellation of the Client's scheduled classes. A late payment fee of $35 may be applied. Auto-payments are set up every 4 weeks and will continue until a cancellation request is processed. If payment is not received at least 24 hours before the lesson, the student will be removed from the schedule, and the lesson time may be forfeited. Outstanding balances must be cleared before further lessons can be scheduled.
If you received a promotional discount for the first month, your second month will automatically return to the regular price. Students are required to save a valid credit card on file, either through the student portal or by phone with our administrator, no later than 48 hours before the end of their initial 4-week package period. This ensures seamless processing of payments for future lessons and services. Failure to comply may result in the suspension of future lessons until payment details are provided.
3. Cancellation, Rescheduling, and Make-Up Lessons, Grace period, Late Arrivals and Refund Policy
Cancellations: Students must provide at least 48 hours' notice for lesson cancellations to be eligible for either a refund or to reschedule the lesson without additional charges. If less than 48 hours' notice is provided, the student may reschedule a private lesson with a $35 rescheduling fee in addition to the regular class fees. No make-up lessons are available for group classes.
Rescheduling: Students can reschedule lessons by contacting the studio administrator directly via phone, WhatsApp, or email, or by using the student portal at MyMusicStaff.
Make-Up Lessons: Make-up lessons are only available when a cancellation notice of at least 48 hours is provided. Make-up lessons must be scheduled within the remaining period of the student’s current package and cannot extend or replace any existing lessons in the package.
Group Classes:
Students enrolled in group classes must provide a written notice at least 30 days before the desired cancellation date. This notice allows us to adjust our schedule and offer the spot to other students.
Notice Requirement: Failure to provide a 30-day notice will result in a charge equivalent to one month’s tuition for the group class.
Mid-Month Cancellations: If notice is given mid-month, the student will be responsible for the full tuition of that month.
Packages:
Lesson Reservation: Upon signing up for a package, the student’s time for the next 4 lessons is reserved in advance. Package lessons cannot be extended beyond the scheduled time frame.
Rescheduling within Packages: Rescheduling is allowed under the condition that at least 48 hours' notice is provided. The rescheduled lesson must occur within the period of the student's current package and cannot replace or extend any other scheduled lessons.
Refunds will be processed within 5-10 business days following a valid cancellation request.
3a Grace Period: A grace period of up to 15 minutes will be permitted for late arrivals to scheduled lessons. If the student arrives within this grace period, the lesson may proceed for the remainder of the scheduled time. However, the lesson will still conclude at the originally scheduled end time. Late arrivals exceeding the grace period may result in forfeiture of the lesson, without any entitlement to a refund or rescheduling, unless otherwise agreed upon by the instructor or school.
3b Late Arrival: In the event a student arrives late, the lesson will commence upon the student's arrival and will be conducted for the remainder of the scheduled time. No additional time will be provided beyond the originally scheduled end time to compensate for the late arrival. The full fee for the lesson remains payable regardless of the shortened duration.
3c Chronic Lateness: Repeated instances of tardiness may result in a review of the student’s enrollment status. Should a pattern of chronic lateness be established, ProTalent Hub reserves the right to impose penalties, including but not limited to suspension of lessons or termination of the student’s enrollment, without refund. The determination of chronic lateness and any associated penalties shall be at the sole discretion of ProTalent Hub.
4. Waiver and Release of Liability The Client acknowledges that participation in Studio activities, including but not limited to vocal and piano lessons, recitals, and performances, carries inherent risks.
