CHANGES TO EVENT/SERVICE

Birmingham Assay Office reserves the right to make alterations to the published booking programme/services where reasonably necessary.

In the unlikely circumstances that a booking event/service is cancelled or re-scheduled, We will use our reasonable endeavours to notify You of the cancellation as soon as is reasonably practical. We will use the details You provided Us with at the time of ordering. We do not guarantee that you will be informed of such cancellation before the date of the event booking/service.

It is Your responsibility to inform Us of any change to the contact address, telephone number or email address You provide Us with at the time of ordering.

REFUNDS/EXCHANGES

Birmingham Assay Office bookings/services cannot be amended, exchanged or refunded after purchase. Where an event/service is cancelled or rescheduled by Birmingham Assay Office the booking will be transferred. We shall not be liable to make any refund or pay any compensation for any pre-booked travel or accommodation associated with the booking/service.

These Terms and Conditions do not and shall not affect Your statutory rights as a consumer.

LIABILITY

Personal arrangements including travel, accommodation or hospitality relating to the booking/service which have been arranged by you are at your own risk.

USE OF DETAILS AND DATA PROTECTION

For information on how We will use and protect Your personal data please see Our Privacy Policy.

A booking/service order shall not be used for advertising, promotions, contests or sweepstakes. A breach of this condition will entitle Us to cancel Your booking /service without refund.

VOID BOOKINGS / SERVICE ORDERS

Any event booking/service orders obtained in breach of these Terms and Conditions shall be void and all rights conferred or evidenced by such event booking/service shall be void. We reserve the right to cancel bookings/services which We reasonably suspect to have been made fraudulently. Void bookings/services are non-refundable.

WAIVERS AND VARIATIONS

We intend to rely on the written terms set out here in this document. You should read the Terms and Conditions carefully before entering into the contract to ensure that they contain everything that You consider has been agreed. After the contract has been made, these Terms and Conditions cannot be varied or amended in any respect unless both You and We agree in writing.
All booking/service orders that You place with Us will be on these terms (or any that we may issue to replace them). By placing a booking/service order with Us, You are expressly waiving any printed terms You may have to the extent that they are inconsistent with Our terms.

FORCE MAJEURE

We will not be liable to You for failure to perform any obligation under these Terms and Conditions to the extent that the failure is caused by Force majeure.

ASSIGNMENT

We shall be entitled to assign any of Our rights and obligations under these Terms and Conditions provided that Your rights are not adversely affected.

SEVERABILITY

If it is found by a Court that any of these Terms and Conditions for any reason cannot be enforced, this shall not prevent the other provisions from continuing to apply.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the parties in connection to its subject matter and supersede any previous terms and conditions, agreement or arrangement between the parties.

Each of the parties agrees that it has not entered into these Terms and Conditions in reliance on, and shall have no remedy in respect of, any statement, representation, covenant, warranty, undertaking or indemnity (whether negligently or innocently made) by any person (whether party to these Terms and Conditions or not) other than as expressly set out in these Terms and Conditions.

Nothing in this clause shall operate to limit or exclude any liability for fraud.

GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in all respects in accordance with English law and the parties agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.

English Law is applicable to any contract made under these terms. The English and Welsh courts have non-exclusive jurisdiction.
The only statements upon which You may rely in making the contract with Us are those made in writing by someone who is (or whom you reasonably believe to be) Our authorised representative and either:
contained in Our estimate (or any covering letter) and not withdrawn before the contract is made; or which expressly state that You may rely on them when entering into the contract.
