General Terms and Conditions of Trading
All bookings for Hallam Communications ltd seminars are accepted
subject to the following terms and conditions. Completion of the
booking form (either manually or electronically) together with
full payment of the relevant course fee(s) constitutes acceptance
of these terms.
Definitions
"The Company", "we" and "us"
means Hallam Communications Ltd. "The Client" means
the company, delegate, or person named on the booking form for
whom "The Company" has agreed to provide training in
accordance with these conditions.
Bookings
No booking will be deemed as accepted by the company unless
and until confirmed in writing and payment has been received in
full. A VAT invoice and delegate information pack will be sent
to acknowledge your booking. Please contact us if you have not
received them within 7 to 10 days. The fee for each seminar includes
written materials, lunch and refreshments. All prices quoted exclude
VAT. Prices are correct at time of being published, but are subject
to change.
The company may, without notifying the client, make changes to
the seminar, postpone, cancel or discontinue the seminar booked.
Under these circumstances, the client will be booked on an appropriate
alternative seminar at no extra charge. We reserve the right to
refuse or restrict anyone from attending our seminars. Course
outlines are correct at time of publishing.
Cancellations
If you are unable to attend the training course, please notify
us of the name of the person to attend in your place. We do not
provide refunds for course cancellations.
Seminar dates may vary subject to demand. All seminars will run
subject to the number of delegates. A seminar may be canceled
if too few bookings are received, in which case we will notify
you approximately 10 days before the seminar to offer an alternative
date, or if you prefer, refund your booking fee.
In no circumstances will the company be liable for any amount
in excess of the agreed fee for the seminar in question. In particular
the company will not be responsible for contingent travel, accommodation
or other expenses of seminar delegates arising from cancellation.
Force Majeure
The company shall not be liable to the client or be deemed
in breach of contract by reason of any delay or failure to perform
any of the company's obligations in relation to the seminar if
this was due to any cause beyond the company's reasonable control.
We will use our best endeavours to provide the seminar and trainers
booked. However we reserve the right to change the content and
timing of the seminar, presenter, date or venue. Cancellations
or changes by us for whatever reason will not result in any obligation
or liability to the client other than the prompt return of any
fees paid or the issuance of a credit note in lieu.
Warranty
The company will use all reasonable care and skill in providing
the training your order under the agreement, including the use
of suitably qualified and experienced trainers. However we make
no warranty as to the results attained by attending our seminars.
Furthermore, any decisions delegates make having received our
training are their own and they remain wholly responsible for
their actions.
Except as expressly represented otherwise, and to the extent
not prohibited by law, all training including any documentation
provided by or on behalf of the company to the delegate is furnished
on an "as is" basis without warranty of any kind, whether
express, implied, statutory or otherwise especially as to quality,
reliability, timeliness, usefulness, sufficiency an accuracy.
The company cannot be held liable for any claim of any kind,
including negligence, for any loss or damage arising out of, connected
with, or resulting from the seminar. In no event whatever shall
the company be liable for any incidental or consequential damages
including but not limited to damage to property, injury or death,
or any other loss that may result directly or indirectly from
any of the use of the training provided by the seminar. The company
also disclaims any liability for delegates who incorrectly select
the wrong seminar in error.
