8. DATA PROTECTION: I understand and agree that Sands Home Search may use my personal information provided
during the period of this agreement and may disclose my information to vendors and other intermediaries or agents as
required in order to provide a property search and acquisition service. I have a right to request a copy of my information
and to correct any inadequacies in the data. We will, whenever possible, communicate with you by email and you agree
to this.

9. LIABILITY: Our agents, employees or officers will take all reasonable steps and adopt all appropriate procedures to
ensure that any information provided to you as part of our service, whether prepared by us, or by a third party, is
accurate and correct. This information is provided as guidance and purchasers must seek legal and other relevant
advice in order to satisfy themselves as to the correctness and accuracy of any property details provided or
represented by Sands Home Search. The service provided by us is not intended as a substitute for professional advice
and the services of solicitors, surveyors, valuation agents and other specialists should be taken to ensure correctness
and suitability of guidance material and/or property as Sands Home Search cannot accept liability for any defects in
legal title or in the fabric and structure of any property. The terms contained in this agreement are the only terms on
which you should rely in relation to your contract with Sands Home Search, and our agents, officers or employees are
not authorised to vary these terms without our express agreement in writing.

10. GENERAL: The supply of services by us is subject to the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement and,
unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by us, these conditions shall prevail over any other terms and conditions
and shall comprise the whole Agreement between you and us. Nothing in these terms and conditions restricts your
statutory rights. If at any time any of these conditions are found to be unreasonable, invalid or unlawful then the validity
of the remaining conditions or parts thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired and shall be in force as if the
unreasonable, invalid or unlawful part had not been included. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement
shall confer on any third party any benefit or the right to enforce any term of this Agreement. This Agreement is
governed by the laws of England & Wales, and you agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England
and Wales.

11. COMPLIANCE: Under Money Laundering Regulations, we will require a copy of your passport and of a utility bill
addressed to you at your current address in the last three months. We may also require proof of your ability to purchase
a property which typically takes the form of a letter of reference from your Bank, Accountant or Legal representative.

12. NOTICE OF THE RIGHT TO CANCEL: In certain circumstances where an ordinary person, not acting in the course
of a business, enters into a contract for the supply of goods or services, that person will get the right to a cancellation
period:
a) The Distance Selling Regulations give consumers who enter into a contract by means of distance, (where there is no
face to face negotiation), a right to cancel within seven working days from the date the contract is concluded. Where
that contract relates to the provision of a service, a consumer may agree that the service will begin immediately and the
right to cancel the contract is lost. You are advised that if you instruct Sands Home Search, you are agreeing that we
will begin our service immediately, and so you will then lose the right to cancel.
b) Under the Contracts made in a consumer's home or place of work Regulations, a business which enters into a
contract with a consumer during a visit they make to a consumer's home must provide written details of the right to
cancel that contract within seven days. Sands Home Search may if requested by the client in writing begin the service
before the expiry of the cancellation period, but where the right to cancel is exercised after commencement of the
service, Sands Home Search will be entitled to payment for any part of the service already carried out.

13. CHARGES ON TERMINATION: In the event of termination or early termination of this agreement and in
circumstances where you have not purchased or agreed to purchase a property for which a Success Fee becomes due
to us under the terms of this agreement, we shall be entitled to charge you a Termination Fee as compensation for the
time and expenses incurred by us in providing property advisory services to you up until the date of termination.
The Termination Fee is calculated as 5% per month, or pro-rata amount, of the minimum Success Fee (as stated in Section
3 above) and becomes immediately due for payment on the date of terminating the agreement. E.g. if the agreement is
terminated after six months, the Termination Fee payable will be 30% of the minimum Success Fee.
