Membership Terms and Conditions
Last updated: 18 August 2026
These Membership Terms and Conditions set out the terms that apply when you purchase or renew a membership of XKEC or F-TypeEC through our website.
By purchasing a new membership or renewing an existing membership, you confirm that you have read, understood and agreed to these Terms and Conditions.
1. About XKEC and F-TypeEC
XKEC and F-TypeEC are membership-based clubs for enthusiasts and owners.
For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, "XKEC", "F-TypeEC", "we", "us" and "our" refers to the relevant club or clubs providing the membership, website or services to you. "You" or "your" refers to the person purchasing or renewing membership.
Where a membership, event, service or communication relates specifically to either XKEC or F-TypeEC, the relevant club may apply its own membership arrangements, activities and benefits.
2. Membership
Membership may be purchased by new members through our website or renewed by existing members.
By applying for or renewing membership, you agree to:
Provide accurate and up-to-date information.
Keep your contact details and vehicle information current where applicable.
Comply with these Terms and Conditions.
Follow any reasonable rules, policies or codes of conduct issued by XKEC or F-TypeEC.
Treat other members, club representatives and event organisers with courtesy and respect.
Membership is personal to the named member and should not be transferred to another person without our prior agreement.
3. Membership Period
Membership is valid for 12 months from the membership start date shown on your membership confirmation.
Where an existing member renews their membership before their current membership expires, the renewal period will normally begin from the end of their existing membership period rather than the date of payment.
Your membership expiry date will be communicated to you as part of your membership confirmation or renewal information.
4. Membership Fees
The applicable membership fee will be displayed on our website before you complete your purchase.
Membership fees may change from time to time. Any change in price will not affect a membership period that you have already purchased.
All prices displayed on our website will be stated in GBP (£) unless otherwise indicated.
5. Payment
Payment must be made through the payment methods made available on our website.
Your membership will only be considered purchased or renewed once payment has been successfully received and confirmed.
If a payment fails, is reversed or is subsequently charged back, we may suspend or cancel the associated membership until the payment issue has been resolved.
6. Membership Confirmation
Once your payment has been successfully processed, we will provide confirmation of your membership using the contact information you supplied.
If you do not receive confirmation within a reasonable period, please contact us using the details provided on the relevant XKEC or F-TypeEC website.
7. Renewals
Existing members may use the relevant website to renew their membership for a further 12-month period.
When renewing, you are responsible for checking that the information we hold about you is accurate and notifying us of any changes.
Unless otherwise stated, purchasing a renewal does not create a separate membership account. Your renewal will be added to your existing membership record.
8. Cancellation and Refunds
If you purchase membership online as a consumer, you may have rights under UK consumer law, including rights relating to cancellation of online contracts.
Where applicable, you may have a 14-day cooling-off period beginning on the day after the contract is entered into.
However, if you ask us to begin providing membership services during this period, your cancellation rights may be affected to the extent permitted by law.
If you wish to cancel your membership or request a refund, please contact us as soon as possible using the contact details provided on the relevant XKEC or F-TypeEC website.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions is intended to remove or restrict any rights you have under applicable UK consumer law.
9. Membership Benefits
Membership may provide access to club benefits, services, information, events, publications, discounts, vehicle registers or other activities.
The benefits available to members may change from time to time. We will make reasonable efforts to maintain the benefits advertised at the time of purchase but cannot guarantee that every benefit will remain available throughout the entire membership period.
Certain events or activities may have additional terms, fees, booking requirements or eligibility conditions.
Benefits may differ between XKEC and F-TypeEC memberships depending on the membership type purchased.
10. Events and Activities
Membership does not automatically guarantee entry to every XKEC or F-TypeEC event or activity.
Some events may have limited capacity and may require separate registration or payment.
Members participating in club events and activities are responsible for following any applicable safety instructions, venue rules and event-specific terms.
Where an event involves driving or use of a vehicle, members remain responsible for their own vehicle, driving and conduct and must comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
11. Website Use
You agree to use our websites lawfully and responsibly.
You must not:
Use the websites for fraudulent or unlawful purposes.
Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our websites, systems or other members' information.
Submit false, misleading or inaccurate information.
Upload or transmit malicious software or harmful material.
Use information obtained through the websites for unauthorised commercial purposes.
We reserve the right to restrict or suspend access to our websites where we reasonably believe these Terms and Conditions have been breached.
12. Member Conduct
We want XKEC and F-TypeEC to be welcoming communities for all members.
We reserve the right to take appropriate action where a member engages in behaviour that is abusive, threatening, discriminatory, offensive, unlawful or otherwise seriously detrimental to either club or its members.
Where appropriate, this may include suspension or termination of membership.
13. Suspension or Termination of Membership
We may suspend or terminate a membership where there are reasonable grounds to believe that:
These Terms and Conditions have been seriously or repeatedly breached.
Information provided to us was fraudulent or materially inaccurate.
A member has behaved in a manner that may seriously harm XKEC, F-TypeEC, their members or their reputation.
Membership has been obtained or used for an unlawful purpose.
Payment for membership has been reversed, disputed or not received.
Where reasonably practicable, we will provide the member with an explanation and an opportunity to resolve the matter before terminating membership.
Where membership is terminated because of a serious breach of these Terms and Conditions, any refund will be considered on a case-by-case basis and in accordance with applicable law.
14. Personal Information
We collect and process personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
Information provided when purchasing or renewing membership may be used to administer your membership, communicate with you about club activities and provide membership services for XKEC and/or F-TypeEC.
Please refer to our Privacy Policy for further information about how we collect, use and protect your personal information.
15. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise stated, the content of the XKEC and F-TypeEC websites, including text, logos, graphics, photographs and other materials, belongs to or is licensed to the relevant club.
You must not reproduce, modify, distribute or commercially exploit our content without our prior written permission, except where permitted by law.
16. Website Availability
We will make reasonable efforts to keep our websites available and functioning correctly.
However, we do not guarantee that either website will always be available, uninterrupted or free from errors.
We may temporarily suspend a website for maintenance, security, updates or other operational reasons.
17. Limitation of Liability
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.
Subject to the above, XKEC and F-TypeEC will not be responsible for losses that are not reasonably foreseeable or for circumstances outside our reasonable control.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions affects your statutory rights as a consumer.
18. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms and Conditions from time to time to reflect changes to our membership services, websites, legal requirements or club operations.
The latest version will be published on the relevant website with the date it was last updated.
Any changes will not retrospectively alter rights or obligations that have already arisen, unless required by law.
19. Governing Law
These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
Any disputes relating to these Terms and Conditions will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, except where applicable law provides otherwise.
