It’s your responsibility to read and understand our cancellation policy before making a reservation. We understand that nobody makes a reservation with the intention of cancelling or postponing, but unexpected things do happen, so please consider purchasing travel cancellation insurance.

CANCELLATION BY YOU

Should you choose to cancel your registration for a Retreat, for any reason, then:

However, bookings for the Retreat are transferable to another person, if you notify us of your intention to transfer your booking, at least ten (10) days prior to departure for a Retreat. We may accept or decline any request for a booking transfer, in our sole discretion.

Only the person who made the booking may cancel or transfer a booking.

CHANGES AND CANCELLATION BY US

We will do our utmost to ensure that the Retreat goes ahead, as we’re just as excited about it, as you are. However, if we must cancel and/or postpone the Retreat due to unforeseen circumstances (excluding for reasons related to Covid-19), then you will be notified via email and refunded, as follows:

  • If we cancel the Retreat, then we will provide you with a full refund of the payment you have made to us; or

  • If we are required to postpone a Retreat, then you will not be entitled to receive a refund.

We are not responsible for any expenses that you may have incurred, as a consequence of this cancellation.

Although we’ll strive to do whatever we can to bring you the Retreat, as advertised, we reserve the right to alter Retreat arrangements, at our discretion. Co-ordinating the Retreat involves managing many variables, some of which are beyond our control and may cause us to make necessary changes to the Retreat. We will notify you of any significant changes, via email, as soon as practicably possible.

FORCE MAJEURE

 

In this section of these Terms, “Event of Force Majeure” means an event beyond the control of The Queen of Confidence, which prevents a party from complying with any of its obligations under these Terms, including but not limited to, further consequences from the Covid-19 pandemic, an act of God (such as, but not limited to, fires, explosions, earthquakes, drought, tidal waves and floods), war, military action, hostilities, rebellion, riots, strikes, virus, pandemic, epidemic, famine or plague, acts of threat or terrorism or action of a court.

In an Event of Force Majeure, the Queen of Confidence:

  • will not be considered to be in breach of these Terms, to the extent that performance of its respective obligations (excluding payment obligations) is prevented by an Event of Force Majeure, which arises after the date that these Terms are entered into; and

  • will provide you with written notice outlining the inability to meet any obligations.

In light of the uncertainty of Covid-19 and restrictions on social gatherings, if The Queen of Confidence is unable to host the Retreat, then you agree that the Retreat will be postponed and rescheduled for a later date.
