Once a completed booking form has been accepted by written confirmation by Theresa Emmerich Kamper (here-after to be known as "the company"), all persons named on the booking form (here-after to be known as "the client") will have agreed to a binding contract on the basis of these terms and conditions. If you have any questions regarding these conditions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Any agreement based on the outlined terms & conditions arises upon the fulfilment of the following:

 

a) Receipt by Theresa Emmerich Kamper of a properly completed booking form accompanied by the full payment or deposit specified.

​

b) Clearance of the full payment or deposit (as detailed in Section 2) into the bank account of Theresa Emmerich Kamper.

 

c) The client signing the booking form shall be deemed to sign for themselves or acting as a legally recognised agent of the client for and on their behalf and agrees to make them aware of and abide by these terms and conditions.

 

d) The agreement is between Theresa Emmerich Kamper and the client and is the sole agreement between those parties. No variation of these Terms & Conditions shall be applicable unless agreed in writing by Theresa Emmerich Kamper before the relevant course.

 

e) Theresa Emmerich Kamper reserves the right to refuse bookings to any party or individual without need to give a reason solely at the discretion of Theresa Emmerich Kamper. In such circumstances no agreement arises, and Theresa Emmerich Kamper will return any payment accompanying the booking form.

 

f) Any typographical, clerical or other error or omission in any sales literature, quotation, price list, acceptance of offer, invoice or other document or information issued by the Company shall be subject to correction without any liability on the part of the Company.

Where the Client falls outside the definition of “small business” under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act (“the Act”), the Company shall be entitled to charge the Client interest on the amount unpaid at the statutory rate provided by the Act and in other cases charge the Client interest (before as well as after judgment) on the amount unpaid at the rate of 4% over the base rate of Lloyds Bank plc from time to time and compounded monthly and an additional £50 (fifty pounds) handling charge.

 

b) Time of payment shall be of the essence of the contract and the failure of the Client to pay any part of any invoice in due time shall entitle the Company to cancel the Activities and to recover damages for breach of contract by the Client. Such damages shall include, without limitation, any bank charges or other costs or expenses incurred directly or indirectly in connection with the Client’s failure to pay on the due date. The Company shall have authority to re-allocate the Activities without prejudice to any of its other remedies.

 

c) The Client waives all and any future claims and rights of set off against any payment due by the Client under these Conditions and agrees to pay any amounts due regardless of any equity, set off or cross claim on the part of the Client against the Company.

 

d) The rights of the Company under this Clause 3 are cumulative and not alternative and any waiver by the Company of any of its rights shall be without prejudice to any other rights hereunder.

a) Cancellation more than 8 weeks before the course starts = Full Refund

b) Cancellation 8-6 weeks before the course start = 50% Refund of Course Cost
