Booking terms and conditions
This event is convened by Sydney Insight Meditators Inc, hereafter 'SIM'.
Your place will be secured only when SIM has received your deposit and a completed booking form. When it receives these items SIM will assume that you accept these terms and conditions. SIM reserves the right to refuse the attendance of any individual to this event at its discretion.

Refunds:
Any payment made on or before the final payment date specified on the retreat information page (if no date is specified, the final payment date will be deemed to be ten days prior to the start of the retreat) will be fully refundable in the event of a cancellation.  

After this date, no refund is possible except under special circumstances, as SIM is required to submit a final list and payment to the venue managers and pay for your attendance in full.

Transport to the venue:
SIM does not provide transport to the venue and is not responsible for organising transport.

We may collect information at booking to find out who needs or can offer a lift and will then seek to put these parties in contact with each other to privately finalise these arrangements for themselves.

Payment difficulties and concessions:
As a community organisation, SIM seeks to support its members at times of difficulty to attend our events. Where appropriate, please contact us to discuss this when you make a booking.  Should you wish to apply for a scholarship or concession, please contact us.

We cannot accept your booking if you still owe us money on previous SIM events.

Your attendance:
SIM, its bookings coordinator and retreat manager aim to do all that they can to act impartially in the interests of all attendees so as to ensure they have the most positive experience available to them with respect to the    venue and other attendees.

Occasionally disputes may arise. When this happens before the retreat, the decision of the bookings coordinator and the committee is final. Once a retreat has begun, SIM's authority is vested in the retreat manager until the conclusion of the retreat. Their decision is final. Complaints may be addressed to the SIM committee after the event.
