1. THE FORUM
In posting data to “the Forum” you agree not to use any defamatory, threatening, obscene, harmful or pornographic material or material which violates or infringes in any way upon the rights of others (including intellectual property rights, rights of confidentiality or rights of privacy) or causes distress or inconvenience or which does not comply with relevant laws.

2. COURSE BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

If you need to cancel
Whilst we understand that plans and circumstances change, cancellations can cause us difficulties. We hope our terms set out below are not considered too onerous.

• If you cancel a course booking up to 10 working days before the date of the course we will make a charge of 20% of the course fee inclusive of VAT.
• Cancellations within 10 working days of the course, for whatever reason, will attract the full fee with no refunds possible.
• Alternative delegates will be allowed to attend the course, but for security and administrative reasons, we would ask that we be advised of name changes beforehand.

If Risk Audit needs to cancel

• Risk Audit will take all reasonable measures to avoid cancellation.

If, in our sole judgement, it is not possible to proceed with a course for whatever reason, we reserve the right to cancel the event. In this situation, our liability is limited to a refund of the course fee. We are not liable for any further costs including consequential damages.
