Pac Pines Vet Pty Ltd trading as “The Pines Vet”, herein referred to as “Us”, “We” or “TPV”, owns and operates the Pines Health Unleashed membership (“Club Membership”) program for owners of dogs and cats. Club Membership benefits can only be redeemed only at The Pines Veterinary Surgery, 10/2 Universal Street, Pacific Pines QLD 4211. Braintree collects payments on behalf of Us.

Introduction

1. Club Membership provides pet owners with a cost-effective annual preventative care program for their dogs and cats. Designed to promote best practice proactive health-care habits among pet owners, Club membership will help to maximise a pet’s quality of life and longevity.

2. Club Membership is not pet health insurance, and therefore does not include treatment for unpredictable or abnor- mal conditions, such as accidental injuries, illness and elective procedures.Treatment discounts may apply, however, for some of the above procedures.

3. Each Club Membership is for one pet only. Benefits and services are not transferable between different pets. Benefits can only be used for the pet in whose name the membership is registered and each pet must be identifiable through a registered microchip.

4. The “Club Member” is the registered owner of the nominated dog or cat as per the Club Membership application form. The Club Member is responsible for making sure membership payments are made in a timely manner.

5. The “Start Date” is the date the Club Member makes their first payment for Club Membership.

6. Under certain circumstances, for example if you sell or give your dog or cat away, your Club Membership for that dog or cat may be transferrable to another person.
