We do not collect data from children under 14 without the consent of their legal guardians.
4. Acceptance and booking confirmation
To book, you must submit the booking request form on the website with accurate, complete and up-to-date information. By ticking the acceptance box on the Stripe payment page and completing payment, you expressly accept these terms and become a client of Respiro Health.
Within 24 hours of payment you will receive an email confirming your booking, with a link to these terms. If any detail is incorrect, you can ask for it to be changed or cancel the booking by replying to that email.
5. Description of services
Respiro Health offers:
- Individual sessions, online or in person.
- Group sessions or programmes, online or in person.
Online sessions take place on Zoom. You will need a stable internet connection, a camera and a microphone. The link is sent by email before the session. In-person sessions take place at Centro comercial Mar y Sol, Local 5, 11310 Sotogrande, Cádiz.
Sessions are delivered in Spanish, English or French, as agreed when booking. Supporting materials (PDFs, audio or exercise videos) may be sent by email for the client’s personal use.
6. Important health notice
The Buteyko Method is a breathing retraining technique and does not replace medical diagnosis or treatment. The instructor is not a doctor and does not diagnose illness.
- Do not change or stop any medication (for example, asthma inhalers) without consulting your doctor.
- Before starting, tell us about any relevant health condition (pregnancy, cardiovascular disease, epilepsy, diabetes, kidney problems or others) so we can adapt the exercises or advise you to check with your doctor first.
- If you feel unwell during an exercise, stop and tell the instructor.
Results depend on each person’s consistent practice and cannot be guaranteed.
7. Prices and taxes
Current prices are always published on the Prices page of respirohealth.eu. They may change at any time, but the price that applies is the one in force when your booking is confirmed.
Prices are shown in euros and include any applicable VAT. Later price changes or promotions do not entitle you to a refund of the difference.
Session packages expire 6 months from purchase and are non-refundable once the first session has been used, except as provided in the withdrawal section.
8. Payment
Payment is made by card through Stripe. Once your appointment is confirmed as available, we will email you a secure payment link. Your booking is guaranteed once payment is complete.
Respiro Health does not store your card details: payment is processed by Stripe using its own security systems.
9. Cancellations and rescheduling
- You may reschedule or cancel an appointment free of charge by giving at least 24 hours’ notice to info@respirohealth.eu.
- If you cancel with less notice or do not attend, the session will be considered delivered and will not be refunded.
- If you arrive late, the session will end at the scheduled time.
- If Respiro Health has to cancel a session, we will offer you a new date or a full refund, as you prefer.
- In online sessions, if the connection fails for reasons attributable to Respiro Health, the lost time will be made up on another date.
10. Code of conduct
Respiro Health may refuse access to a session to anyone who records without permission, shares the Zoom link with others, or behaves in a way that disrupts the session, especially in group sessions.
11. Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer and book at a distance (via the website, email or phone), you have 14 calendar days from the booking to withdraw without giving any reason, under articles 102 et seq. of the Spanish General Law for the Protection of Consumers and Users (TRLGDCU).
- Session within the 14 days: if you book a session that takes place before the 14 days end, you are expressly asking for the service to begin within that period. If you then withdraw, you will pay the proportional part of the service already provided (art. 108 TRLGDCU).
- Fully provided service: you will lose the right of withdrawal once the service has been fully provided, provided you have given your express consent and acknowledged that you lose this right (art. 103.a TRLGDCU). You will be asked for this confirmation on the payment page.
- How to withdraw: email info@respirohealth.eu with your name, the session or programme booked and the date. You may use the form in the Annex, but it is not mandatory.
- Refund: we will refund the amount due within 14 calendar days, using the same payment method.
This policy is separate from the cancellation policy in section 9, which applies after the withdrawal period.
12. Liability
Respiro Health provides its services with the utmost professional care. It will not be liable for:
- Interruptions to online sessions caused by internet, Zoom or client equipment failures.
- Force majeure or causes beyond its control.
- The consequences of not following the instructor’s guidance, not disclosing relevant health conditions, or changing medical treatment without supervision.
- Problems arising from incorrect contact details provided by the client.
Nothing in these terms limits the rights that the law grants to consumers.
13. Ending the relationship
There is no minimum commitment: you may stop booking sessions whenever you wish. Respiro Health may cancel future services if the client provides false information or breaches these terms, refunding any sessions paid for and not delivered.
14. Data protection
In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and Spanish Organic Law 3/2018 (LOPDGDD):
- Data controller: Yovanka Grueso (Respiro Health), info@respirohealth.eu.
- Purpose: managing your bookings, payments and sessions, and communicating with you.
