About these terms
These terms and conditions apply to your use of the PAAT website (pa-at.org), operated by The Professional Association of Assistive Technologists CIC ("PAAT", "we", "us"), company number 16756875, registered in England and Wales. By using this website, you agree to these terms.
Membership applications and fees
Fees, payment, and cancellation terms for membership applications are set out in our Fees and Payment Policy, which forms part of these terms. Membership applications are made in a professional capacity rather than as a consumer, so the 14-day consumer cancellation right does not apply; applicants are instead asked to confirm, at the point of submission, that they consent to PAAT beginning to process their application immediately.

You agree to use this website only for lawful purposes. You must not:
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the website or its systems.
- Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information as part of a membership application.
- Use the website in any way that could damage, disable, or impair its operation, or interfere with other users' access to it.
