Terms & Conditions (A Summary):

Newbubbles operates the following terms and conditions in respect of its training services:

Coverage:

All purchasers of Newbubbles training services are expected to adhere to our terms and conditions of purchase. As a purchaser, you agree to comply with these terms and conditions in full and accept that these take precedence over local institutional purchasing agreements.

Bookings:

• When bookings are made onto our open events, we will assume that the person has the purchasing authority to make such a request
• For bookings identified as 'provisional' by the booker, we will hold those places as provisional until we receive confirmation from the booker that these places are confirmed. However, once the provisional booking reaches a point less than 7 days from the event date, the bookings are automatically converted to live bookings and it assumed the places have been officially requested.

Voucher Scheme:

We want to reward our customers by making bigger discounts available to them. From time to time, Newbubbles discount vouchers will be issued to our delegates to save money on future events with us. To use your voucher at your chosen event, give this to your Newbubbles representative at the sign-in desk. The voucher will entitle you to a % saving on the cost of this event (displayed on the voucher). 

Please note: there are strict rules for the use of Newbubbles vouchers.

• One voucher is valid for one person only.
• Vouchers can only be used for a single event. 
• Vouchers can be transferable - you can give the voucher to another person to use.
• You cannot claim a discount without the voucher (so please do not ask our staff to do this)
• Some events are exempt from our discount scheme (please consult our event listings for these exemptions)
• Any dispute about the use of vouchers MUST be made to gradeonetraining@newbubbles.com and our decision will be final.

Cancellations Policy:

To cancel a reservation please e-mail us at gradeonetraining@newbubbles.com with the details of your booking. The following rules apply:

• If you cancel within 1 calendar month of your training date, you will get a full refund.
• If you cancel between 14 and 28 days of your training date, you will get a 50% refund
• If you cancel within 14 days of your training date, you will not be entitled to a refund

Our Cancellations:

Newbubbles reserves the right to cancel courses without notice in the event of unforseen circumstances or where the event does not achieve the minimum quota of delegates. Where this occurs, delegates will be entitled to a full refund.

Newbubbles accepts no liabilities or damages from delegates or their associate organisations for courses that are cancelled for the reasons stated above. This includes courses that would have awarded individuals and/or the organisation a certificate, a professional accreditation or a designated quality stamp conferred by the delegate's attendance.

Payment Terms:

Your training place is booked when you send us an e-mail or order form confirming the details of the event(s) you wish to attend. You will have a seven day cooling off period to cancel your reservation*. After this time, our cancellation charges apply.

*(this does not apply for reservations made within 14 days of the event date).

When you are making a booking, Newbubbles assumes that you have the appropriate authority to make the purchase, and will charge your employer accordingly. Unless otherwise stated, an invoice will be sent to your employer and your employer is expected to pay by organisational cheque or direct BACS payment no later than 28 days from the invoice date. 

Company Name: Newbubbles Ltd,
VAT No: 108 7004 40

Newbubbles will also accept guaranteed personal cheques or payment by electronic transfer from individual attendees (please e-mail us to discuss details).

Unless otherwise stated, event costs are exclusive of VAT. The standard UK VAT tariff will be applied in all transactions.

Late Charges:

For every month that the invoice is late, we will re-issue the payee with a new invoice that will include our monthly late payment fees. We will charge a re-issue fee of £12.00. After 90 days of non-payment, we will refer the matter to a debt collection agency.

Late payments will also attract a charge of 3% a week on amount overdue until final payment is completed and cleared in our bank account. Late payment will render any applied booking discounts invalid. If the matter is referred to a debt collection agency, all costs related to this debt recovery will be charged to the payee's account.

We reserve the right to remove discount privileges on purchasers who do not comply with these payment terms.

Newbubbles Trainers

When you book a Newbubbles trainer, you agree to send all requests for repeat business back to Newbubbles who will be delighted to organise a new event for you. Trainers will ask you to do this if you want to engage them for a future event. We reserve the right to waive all discounts on an existing event if repeat business enquiries is conducted outside of these conditions. We will make sure you get the very best deal for your budget, and we guarantee our quality.

Changes to Published Programmes:

Newbubbles reserves the right to change the trainer, venue or subsistence arrangements without further notice, whilst ensuring that such changes can be reasonably met by delegates who have already booked onto a specified course. Changes will be notified to each delegate via e-mail, text message or telephone as soon as possible. A delegate is not entitled to a refund where Newbubbles identifies that the change could be 'reasonably accommodated' by the delegate.

Reasonable changes include:

• substituting one trainer for another of equivalent experience and/or expertise
• changing the location but remaining within a 5 mile radius of the original venue
• changing the catering offer, whilst maintaining the quality and quantity of subsistence provided to each delegate

Photography & Videography:

Newbubbles reserves the right to take photography and video footage of our training events. We use this information to promote our future activities AND to quality assure their delivery. Newbubbles owns the exclusive copyright to this material.

It is a condition of purchase that you consent to this photography and videography and waive your rights to its ownership. We will endeavour to be sensitive to individual needs (and to work around these) but cannot guarantee that you will not be photographed and/or filmed during an event.

Feedback & Review Process:

We believe that every training event should be high quality and meet each delegate's needs, and we work with trainers to continually improve the delegate experience. We use training evaluation forms, data analysis reports, follow-up e-mails and video footage to quality check our events and make improvements to our offer.

Revisions to Policy:

Newbubbles reserves the right to make amendments to this policy without the need to give advanced notice to its users. The version of the policy on our website should be considered as the prevailing policy and supersedes all previous versions.
