1. About STPprep
STPprep is a trading name of DN46 Labs Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales.
In these Terms & Conditions, "STPprep", "we", "us", and "our" refer to DN46 Labs Ltd (trading as STPprep).
References to "you" and "your" refer to the person accessing our website, creating an account, or purchasing or using our products or services.
2. Purpose of the Platform
STPprep provides online preparation resources designed to help applicants prepare for the NHS Scientist Training Programme (STP) Situational Judgement Test (SJT) and related application processes.
Our platform is an independent educational and preparation resource. It is intended to support personal study and preparation and should not be considered a substitute for official guidance, instructions, or information provided by the relevant organisations responsible for the STP application or selection process.
We do not guarantee that using STPprep will result in a particular score, ranking, interview invitation, application outcome, or successful selection for the NHS Scientist Training Programme.
3. Independent Preparation Resource
STPprep is an independent preparation resource and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or officially connected with the NHS, NHS England, the National School of Healthcare Science, or any other organisation responsible for the STP recruitment or selection process, unless expressly stated otherwise.
References to the NHS, NHS England, the National School of Healthcare Science, or the Scientist Training Programme are made solely to identify the subject matter and purpose of our preparation resources.
4. Eligibility and Account Registration
You must provide accurate and up-to-date information when creating an account or making a purchase.
You are responsible for ensuring that the information associated with your account remains accurate and for notifying us if relevant information changes.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity carried out through your account, except where the activity results from circumstances outside your reasonable control.
You must notify us promptly if you believe that your account credentials have been compromised or that your account has been accessed without your permission.
5. Account Access and Sharing
Access to purchased STPprep resources is provided for the individual customer who purchased the relevant product or service, unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing.
You must not share, transfer, sell, rent, sublicense, or otherwise provide your account or login credentials to another person.
You must not allow another person to use your account to access purchased content or services.
We may take reasonable steps to protect our platform and content from unauthorised access, including suspending or restricting accounts where we reasonably believe that account credentials are being shared, misused, or used in breach of these Terms & Conditions.
6. Purchases and Payments
Prices for STPprep products and services are displayed on the relevant purchase or checkout page and may change from time to time.
The price applicable to your purchase will generally be the price displayed at the time you complete your order, unless an obvious pricing error has occurred.
You are responsible for providing accurate payment and billing information and for ensuring that you have the necessary authority to use the payment method provided.
Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers. Your use of those payment services may also be subject to the provider's own terms and conditions and privacy policies.
7. Digital Products and Access
STPprep primarily provides digital educational content and online preparation resources.
Following successful payment, access to purchased content may be provided immediately or shortly after purchase, depending on the product and the technical systems used to deliver it.
You are responsible for ensuring that you have a suitable device, internet connection, browser, and software required to access the platform.
Where access is provided for a defined period, your access will generally expire at the end of that period unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase.
8. Refunds and Consumer Rights
Refunds are handled in accordance with our Refund Policy, which forms part of these Terms & Conditions.
Due to the nature of our digital products, refunds are generally not available simply because you change your mind, decide that you no longer wish to use the platform, do not use the purchased resources, or are dissatisfied with the content based solely on personal preference.
We do not guarantee any particular educational, examination, recruitment, or career outcome from using STPprep.
Nothing in these Terms & Conditions or our Refund Policy is intended to exclude, restrict, or limit any statutory rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.

STPprep content is created for educational and preparation purposes. While we aim to provide useful and accurate materials, we do not guarantee that every question, explanation, example, or preparation strategy will precisely reflect any current or future official assessment.
Official assessment formats, recruitment procedures, scoring approaches, eligibility requirements, and selection processes may change over time.
You should always refer to official sources for current information about the STP application and selection process.
12. No Guarantee of Results
STPprep does not guarantee that using our platform will result in passing an assessment, achieving a particular score, receiving an interview, being shortlisted, or being offered a place on the Scientist Training Programme.
Your results may depend on many factors outside our control, including your preparation, performance, competition, assessment criteria, recruitment processes, and decisions made by third parties.
Purchasing or using STPprep does not create any entitlement to a particular academic, professional, recruitment, or career outcome.
13. Platform Availability
We aim to keep STPprep available and functioning reliably, but we do not guarantee that the platform will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, or free from technical issues.
Access may occasionally be interrupted due to maintenance, updates, technical issues, security incidents, infrastructure failures, or circumstances outside our reasonable control.
Where reasonably possible, we will take appropriate steps to restore access and address significant technical issues affecting the platform.
14. Changes to the Platform
We may update, modify, improve, replace, or discontinue parts of the platform from time to time.
Changes may include updates to questions, explanations, features, functionality, design, technology, or other aspects of the service.
We may make changes where reasonably necessary to improve the platform, maintain security, comply with legal requirements, address technical issues, or reflect changes in the relevant assessment or recruitment environment.
15. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend or restrict access to your account where we reasonably believe that you have breached these Terms & Conditions, misused the platform, shared account credentials, infringed our intellectual property rights, engaged in fraudulent activity, or created a risk to the security or operation of our services.
Where reasonably appropriate, we may provide you with an opportunity to address the issue before taking further action.
We may also suspend access where necessary to protect the platform, our users, or our business from security threats, fraud, or other serious risks.
Suspension or termination under this section does not affect any rights or remedies available to either party under applicable law.
16. User Content and Communications
If you submit feedback, suggestions, reviews, or other material to STPprep, you must ensure that you have the right to provide that material and that it does not infringe the rights of another person.
By submitting feedback or suggestions, you grant us permission to use that feedback to improve our services without creating an obligation to compensate you, provided that we do not use your personal data in a manner inconsistent with our Privacy Policy or applicable law.
17. Third-Party Services
STPprep may rely on third-party services to support the operation of our platform, including payment processing, hosting, authentication, analytics, email delivery, security, and other technical services.
Your use of certain third-party services may be subject to separate terms and privacy policies provided by those third parties.
We are not responsible for services that are operated independently by third parties, except where responsibility cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
18. Links to Third-Party Websites
Our website or platform may contain links to third-party websites or resources.
These links are provided for convenience and do not necessarily represent an endorsement or recommendation by STPprep.
We are not responsible for the content, availability, security, or privacy practices of third-party websites that we do not control.
19. Limitation of Liability
Nothing in these Terms & Conditions excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful.
This includes liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any statutory rights and remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted.
Subject to the above, STPprep will not be responsible for losses that are not reasonably foreseeable or that arise from circumstances outside our reasonable control.
We are not responsible for decisions made by third parties, including decisions relating to recruitment, assessment, shortlisting, interviews, or selection for the Scientist Training Programme.
Nothing in these Terms & Conditions affects your statutory rights as a consumer.
20. Events Outside Our Reasonable Control
We will not be responsible for delays, interruptions, or failures caused by circumstances outside our reasonable control.
Such circumstances may include significant technical failures, internet or telecommunications disruptions, cyber incidents, infrastructure failures, natural disasters, government actions, changes in law, industrial disputes, or failures of third-party service providers.
Where such an event affects the availability of our services, we will take reasonable steps to restore or continue the service where practicable.
21. Privacy and Personal Data
Our collection and use of personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, store, and protect personal information.
By using STPprep, you acknowledge that your personal data may be processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection law.
22. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms & Conditions from time to time to reflect changes to our services, technology, legal requirements, or business practices.
When we make material changes, we will publish the updated Terms & Conditions on our website and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
The updated Terms & Conditions will apply to future use of the platform and future purchases from the date they take effect.
Changes will not retrospectively remove or reduce rights that you have already acquired under applicable law.
23. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms & Conditions and any dispute or claim arising from or in connection with them are governed by the laws of England and Wales, except where applicable consumer protection law requires otherwise.
Where you are a consumer, you may also have mandatory rights under the laws of the country in which you live, and nothing in these Terms & Conditions is intended to deprive you of protections that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Subject to any mandatory consumer rights, the courts of England and Wales will have jurisdiction over disputes arising in connection with these Terms & Conditions.
24. Severability
If any provision of these Terms & Conditions is found to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision will be treated as modified or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue to apply.
25. No Waiver
If we do not immediately enforce a right or provision under these Terms & Conditions, this does not mean that we have permanently waived that right or provision.
26. Entire Agreement
These Terms & Conditions, together with any applicable policies referenced within them, including our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, form the agreement between you and STPprep in relation to your use of the platform and purchase of our products and services.
