These Terms and Conditions govern your use of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site (the thismorninghealthystarts.com site) and your relationship with Tesco Ireland Limited (Tesco, we or us). Please read them carefully as they affect your rights and liabilities under the law. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, please do not use or become a member of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site. The thismorninghealthystarts.com site is delivered by Tesco pursuant to an agreement with ITV Consumer Limited (Registered office: The London Television Centre, Upper Ground, London, United Kingdom, SE1 9LT) ("ITV").

This website is operated by Tesco Ireland Limited. For more details, please go to Contact Us.

  1. Use of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site

    You will be able to access some areas of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site without registering as a member. However, by accessing any part of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.

    THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DO NOT AFFECT YOUR STATUTORY RIGHTS.

  2. Amendments

    We may update these Terms and Conditions from time to time. You should periodically review them for changes although where possible we will try to bring any changes to your attention by indicating such changes via a notice on the thismorninghealthystarts.com site. If you continue to use the thismorninghealthystarts.com site after the date on which any changes come into effect, your use of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site indicates your agreement to be bound by the new Terms and Conditions. If you do not wish to accept the new Terms and Conditions you should not continue to use the thismorninghealthystarts.com site and, if applicable, you should cancel your membership (the original Terms and Conditions applying up to the date of cancellation).

  3. Membership

    To register as a member of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site you must be over eighteen (18) years of age. You must ensure that the details provided by you on registration or at any time are correct and complete. You can review your details by signing into the Member login section of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site. You must inform us immediately of any changes to the information that you provided when registering by updating your personal details. With the exception of trial memberships and special offers, the initial membership term (IMT) is ten weeks. Unless specified otherwise on the thismorninghealthystarts.com site, membership is automatically renewed after the IMT and monthly thereafter. The membership fee is charged upon registration. Thereafter you will be charged monthly until your membership is cancelled (for cancellation details see paragraph 4 below). Details of pricing are shown within the sign-up process. Prices are expressed inclusive of any VAT payable. Any reduction or increase in the monthly membership price will take effect in your next membership month following notification. Your membership month begins on the next calendar date after the date on which your IM ends and finishes on the day before that calendar date the following month.

  4. Cancellation of membership

    No cancellation option is available during the first day of membership. However, outside of this you are free to set your account to cancel at any time during your membership. All cancellation options are available in the 'My Account' section of your personal online account. Alternatively, we will accept requests to cancel via email. Cancellation will take affect from the next membership renewal date and you will not be entitled to a refund for any monthly membership fee already paid.

    In addition, in circumstances where our relationship with ITV comes to an end we may no longer be able to provide you with access to the thismorninghealthystarts.com site; in such circumstances you will be given the option either i) to have your subscription transferred to any new provider appointed by ITV to deliver the thismorninghealthystarts.com site or ii) to have your subscription transferred to our proprietary site (www.tescodiets.com) or iii) to cancel your subscription.

    The cancellation of your membership and your right to use the thismorninghealthystarts.com site shall not affect either party's rights or liabilities.

    Paragraphs 8, 9, 12 and 13 of these Terms and Conditions shall survive cancellation.

    Cancelling your thismorninghealthystarts.com account

    You are free to set your account to cancel at any time during your membership.

    • To set your account to cancel, please log into the site.
    • Select the "Help" option from the top navigation.
    • Select the "My Account" link and the cancel option is situated on this page.

    Only requests received via the methods outlined above will be considered. For your own records, we advise you to keep a copy of any request sent.

    Cancellation of Membership and Refund Entitlement

    By joining as a member you agree to register for the IMT as described in paragraph 3 above and as indicated on registration. You also agree that the thismorninghealthystarts members' services on the thismorninghealthystarts site will be available to you immediately. As a result you agree that you will not be entitled to cancel your membership during your IMT pursuant to the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000, i.e. you will not have the usual cooling-off period.

    You can notify us of your request to cancel at any time during your IMT but this will not take effect until the end of your IMT. Please note however that the cancellation option accessible in the 'My Account' section of the thismorninghealthystarts.com site will not be available during the first day of membership. In the event that you do not use your thismorninghealthystarts.com account, please note that we will not automatically cancel your account (even after any prolonged period of inactivity). After your IMT your subscription will be renewed automatically on a monthly basis and you will be billed on that basis until you notify us that you wish to cancel. If you cancel after your IMT, cancellation will take effect the day before your next monthly subscription period. You will not be entitled to a refund of any fees already paid. All cancellation options are available in the 'My Account' section of your personal online account. Alternatively, we will accept requests to cancel via email.

  5. Payment

    You can pay membership fees by any Mastercard or Visa credit card, or Visa Electron or Delta debit cards. Your credit/debit card details can be entered on the thismorninghealthystarts.com site. The details will be encrypted to minimise the possibility of unauthorised access or disclosure.

    At the time of registration, your credit/debit card will be charged for the IMT. Thereafter you will be charged monthly until you cancel your membership (for cancellation details see paragraphs 4 and 5 above). Details of pricing are shown within the sign-up process. Prices are expressed inclusive of any VAT payable.

    Any reduction or increase in the monthly membership price will take effect in your next membership month following notification. Your membership month begins on the next calendar date after the date on which your IMT ends and finishes on the day before that calendar date the following month.
