Fees
Current fees for services and programs are usually displayed on each individual program page and, unless otherwise stated, do not include VAT.
Estonian VAT is due on any invoices unless as per the exemptions described below.
Estonian VAT is charged at 20% for any Estoninan customers.
Estonian VAT is charged at 20% to any customers based in an EU country unless they can provide a valid VAT number issued in their country. If you have a VAT number issued within the EU please send this to us for confirmation so that we can verify the details.
Any non-EU customers do not need to pay Estonian VAT, eg: United States, Canada, India, Australia, New Zealand etc. If you are not eligible to pay Estonian VAT please do not make payment and instead email [email protected] so that we can send you a payment link and invoice with the VAT removed once we have verified your details. Any subsequent invoices will not contain VAT.
Please note that VAT can not be refunded if it has been paid previously and you should claim it back through your local VAT office.
We reserve the right to change the fees/packages offered but will always honour the agreed amount for the agreed time period of any services that were set at the beginning of our work together. However, should you wish to continue to work with us after the completion of your initial package, there will be no guarantee that the rates will be the same.
Affiliate Offerings
In some cases Elative Solutions OÜ or its owners may have an affiliate relationship with a third party site or service provider mentioned on the Sites, and may be compensated (e.g. receive a valuable benefit, or even a commission) if you visit and/or purchase a product or service from the affiliated site. We will generally endeavor to identify any such relationships so that you understand that even though we endorse a particular product or service, we also may be compensated in some way if you choose to do business with the recommended business or site. However, you should assume that we do have such a relationship – and that we will be compensated if you purchase a product or service. Where we have an affiliate relationship with such third party sites, our receipt of compensation does not increase your cost to purchase the product or service, and if you purchase through an affiliate link, you will generally receive valuable bonuses that you will not otherwise be entitled to receive. Moreover, while many people would like us to endorse or recommend their products, we will never endorse or recommend any product or service we do not believe in, that is not of good quality, or which we do not think can provide benefits for you, regardless of potential compensation. However, if the possibility of us receiving compensation is not agreeable to you, please do not buy through any link on the Sites. Our products and services, including those that are available through the Sites may also be offered by or through third party affiliates who are compensated by us, for example if you purchase a product or service from us. While we are responsible for claims we have made regarding our products or services, we cannot be held responsible for any claims made by third parties. Moreover, those third parties may promise the inclusion of various bonuses or additional products or services.
If those bonuses, products, or services are a part of our offer, we are responsible for delivering or providing them and will do so. If the third party affiliate has offered additional bonuses, products, or services that are not a part of our offer, you should contact them regarding delivery, or support issues for those bonuses, products, or services.
We endeavor to be selective in the people or companies we allow to promote our products or services. If you believe that you have been promised bonuses, products, or services from a third party claiming to be our affiliate who does not follow through or deliver the promised bonuses, products, or services, and if you have been unsuccessful in resolving the issue, we would appreciate hearing about it. Problems can arise, and while we cannot take responsibility for such problems, if we see a pattern of problems with an affiliate we will determine if we should allow them to promote our products or services in the future.
Delivery Policy
As the majority of our products are available online you will be sent access/login details within 24 hours from receipt of your paid order.
Physical product purchases will be delivered generally between 7am and 6pm Monday to Friday (excluding bank holidays) via a third party delivery service such as Royal Mail, UPS or FedEX. Deliveries will be made within 1 to 10 working days from receipt of your paid order.
Online coaching and other services will be provided as agreed with you at the time of order or by proposal.
Coaching Confidentiality

For tax purposes, the law requires us to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they stop being customers.
In some circumstances, we may anonymise your personal data for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
Under data protection laws you have rights in relation to your personal data that include the right to request access, correction, erasure, restriction, transfer, to object to processing, to the portability of data and (where the lawful ground of processing is consent) to withdraw consent.
You can see more about these rights at: https://edps.europa.eu/data-protection_en
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please email us at [email protected].
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive or refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you.
If you are not happy with any aspect of how we collect and use your data, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the EU supervisory authority for data protection issues (https://edps.europa.eu/edps-homepage_en). We should be grateful if you would contact us first if you do have a complaint so that we can try to resolve it for you.
