Service terms

Weekline pilot terms

Plain-English terms for the free sample week and paid pilots. Last updated 9 Nov 2026.

1. The service

Ethan O'Brien trading as Weekline (“we”) prepares a weekly email report comparing sales and staff costs across up to five agreed branches, from figures you provide, and gives your approved users a private account to submit figures and view past reports.

2. Sample week and pilot

The first sample report is free. A paid pilot starts only when we both agree its scope and price in writing (email is fine). Pilot length: 8 weeks, then monthly unless either side gives 30 days’ notice.

3. Fees

Fees are as agreed in your pilot proposal, invoiced with the setup fee on agreement and the monthly fee in advance and payable within 14 days. Prices are shown before any VAT; we will tell you in writing if VAT applies..

4. Your responsibilities

• Send branch totals only, without staff names, individual pay, bank details or customer records.
• Check that the figures you send are the ones you want reported, and tell us which basis they use (gross or net sales; actual or planned staff costs).
• Keep your login details private and tell us when someone should lose access.

5. What the report is — and isn’t

The report presents your figures and simple calculations from them. Observations describe changes in the numbers; they are not financial, legal or HR advice. We will correct any calculation error we make, but we can’t be responsible for errors in the figures supplied to us.

6. Missing or late figures

If figures haven’t arrived by the send time, the report goes out with the missing items clearly flagged, or is held if nothing has arrived at all.

7. Data

Your figures remain yours. We use them only to provide the service, as described in our privacy notice, and delete them at the end as set out there.

8. Liability

Our total liability in any 12 months is limited to the fees you paid us in that period. Nothing limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

9. Ending the service

Either side can end the service with the notice period above. We’ll give you an export of your branch totals on request before deletion.

10. Law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
