Registration is binding. Cancellation refunds of 80 % will be issued if requested up to 30 days before the start of the event; after this date no refunds are possible. Registration fees are due within 7 days of submission and no later than 7 days before the event begins. Please note that participation is not confirmed until full payment has been received.
