Cancellation by Customer:

In accordance with the provisions of section 17 of the Consumer Protection Act, you have the right to cancel a pre-booked Training Course. In the event of cancellation, a reasonable charge may be applied to cover administrative costs.
If you provide written notification to Magnadient via email, indicating your intention to cancel a Training Course booking at least 14 days prior to the start date of the Training Course, you will be eligible for a full refund of the Training Course fee paid. However, for cancellations received less than 10 days before the Training Course start date, the following cancellation charges will apply on a sliding scale basis:

Notice Period Cancellation Charge
5-9 working days 20.00% of the course cost unless credited towards another course
3-5 working days 30.00% of the course cost
2 working days or less 40.00% of the course cost

Please note that the applicable cancellation charges are designed to compensate for the costs incurred and the impact on other potential attendees.
We kindly request that you acknowledge and agree that the aforementioned cancellation charge(s) are reasonable and do not exceed a fair amount considering the following factors: (a) the nature of the goods or services you have reserved or booked; (b) the notice period provided by you for the cancellation; (c) the reasonable potential for Magnadient, acting diligently, to secure an alternative customer during the time between receiving the cancellation notice and the scheduled reservation; and (d) the prevailing industry practices.

However, we understand that certain circumstances may prevent you from honouring the booking or reservation, such as the unfortunate event of the death or hospitalization of the person for whom the booking or reservation was made, without any suitable substitute available. In such cases, we will waive the cancellation charge.

Upon receiving your written booking cancellation, supported by documentary proof of your bank account, we will process a refund within 30 days. The refund will be issued via electronic funds transfer to the original payer.

Failure to attend:

In the event that you are unable to attend the Training Course for which you have made a booking, it is important to note that you will still be responsible for the full payment of the Training Course Fee. Unfortunately, no refund or transfer of your booking to an alternative date can be provided.

However, we understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise. If you seek to send an alternative delegate to attend the Training Course on your behalf, we kindly request that you obtain our written approval at least 5 business days prior to the scheduled Training Course. The alternative delegate must meet all applicable prerequisites for the Training Course.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in these matters.

Booking Transfer:

You have the flexibility to transfer your booking from one Training Course (referred to as the “Original Training Course”) to another Training Course (referred to as the “Alternative Training Course”) by providing us with notice at least 14 business days before the scheduled start date of the Original Training Course. It is important to note that once the booking is transferred to the Alternative Training Course, no refunds will be provided for the cancellation of either course. Additionally, if the Alternative Training Course has a higher cost, we kindly request that you settle the price difference prior to commencing the Alternative Training Course.

If you wish to transfer your booking to the same course on a different date, there will be no extra charge, provided you provide written notice at least 14 business days before the start of the relevant Training Course, subject to availability. However, if the notice is received less than 14 business days prior to the original course start date, a transfer fee of 10% of the course fee will apply. It is important to note that you can only transfer your booking once, and no further transfers will be permitted.

To request a course transfer, please submit a written request via an email provided by one of our consultants who has been in contact with you or on info@devlarity.com.

Cancellation or Rescheduling of Training Courses:

We understand the importance of delivering the Training Courses as scheduled. However, there may be instances where we need to cancel or reschedule a Training Course due to insufficient enrolment. If such a situation arises, we will provide you with written notice at least 7 calendar days prior to the scheduled commencement date of the Training Course.

In the event of a cancellation by us, you will have the following options available to you:

1. Receive a full refund of the Training Course Fee that you have already paid.
2. Receive credit towards the same course on an alternative date.
3. Receive credit towards an alternative course on an alternative date

The services we provide acknowledge the significance of adhering to professional and lawful standards in regard to termination. Termination of the training, in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions, may occur under certain circumstances as recognized by South African contract law. These circumstances may include non-compliance, breach of contract, or mutual agreement between the involved parties.

Our aim is to foster a collaborative and mutually beneficial relationship, and we are committed to addressing and resolving any issues or challenges in a harmonious manner, thereby minimizing the likelihood of termination.

We hope that our working relationship remains smooth and uninterrupted. In the event that termination becomes necessary, we will provide you with written notice. However, it is important to outline the circumstances in which termination of the agreement may occur:

21. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

In the event of any disputes or differences arising between the parties in relation to this Agreement, we propose that the said dispute or difference be resolved through arbitration. Both parties may submit a written demand for arbitration, and the arbitration shall take place in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, in accordance with the rules and regulations set forth by the Arbitration Foundation of Southern Africa (AFSA).

In the unlikely event that AFSA is unavailable or not accepting arbitration requests at that time, the arbitration shall be conducted following the AFSA rules for commercial arbitration, as last applied by AFSA. The appointment of an arbitrator shall be determined through mutual agreement between the parties within 5 business days of the arbitration demand.

The appointed arbitrator shall be responsible for resolving the dispute, and any matters related to the administration of the arbitration, in case of disagreement between the attorneys of the parties. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding on all parties involved.

While the arbitration proceedings are confidential, we acknowledge that a party to the arbitration may seek urgent relief or pursue a judgment on a liquidated claim through the appropriate court.

We want to emphasize that any arbitration conducted under this clause (including any appeal proceedings) will be handled with confidentiality. The parties involved shall treat the details of the dispute, the conduct of the arbitration proceedings, and the outcome of the arbitration as strictly confidential.

In the event that the client(s) are not located in Port Elizabeth, South Africa or are unable to attend an arbitration resolution in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, we propose an alternative method for dispute resolution. Both parties agree to conduct the arbitration process online or through suitable digital means, ensuring convenience and accessibility for all involved.

We believe that utilizing online platforms for dispute resolution allows for efficient and cost-effective proceedings while maintaining the principles of fairness and impartiality. By adopting this approach, we aim to accommodate clients who may not be able to physically attend arbitration sessions in Port Elizabeth.

Please note that the online dispute resolution method will be in accordance with the AFSA rules and regulations governing the arbitration process. However, we strive to ensure a smooth and effective resolution process, regardless of geographical constraints, and appreciate your cooperation in this matter.

We believe that resolving any potential disputes through arbitration provides a fair and impartial process, and it is our sincere hope that such disputes do not arise in the first place. We would like to emphasize that our goal is to reach a fair and equitable resolution that preserves our working relationship.

22. EVENTS BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL

We shall not be held liable to you under this Agreement if we are unable to fulfill our obligations or carry out our business due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control. Such circumstances may include, but are not limited to, strikes, lock-outs, acts of God, war, riots, civil commotion, malicious damage, compliance with laws or government orders, accidents, fires, floods, or storms.

During the occurrence of such events, our obligations will be temporarily suspended, and we will be granted an extension of time to fulfill our obligations for the duration of the event. However, we assure you that we will make every reasonable effort to resolve the situation and fulfill our obligations, even in the presence of such circumstances.

23. WAIVER

In the event that we do not enforce strict compliance with any of your obligations or fail to exercise any of our rights or remedies under this Agreement, it should not be interpreted as a waiver of such rights or remedies, nor release you from your obligation to comply.

Any waiver by us of a default on your part should not be considered as a waiver of any subsequent defaults.

For a waiver of any of these terms and conditions to be valid, it must be explicitly communicated to you in writing by us.

We appreciate your understanding regarding the waiver provision outlined in these terms and conditions.

24. GENERAL

Any communication that needs to be conveyed from one party to another in accordance with these terms must be done in writing.

If any provision of these terms is deemed invalid or unenforceable by a competent authority, it shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these terms or the portion of the provision in question that remains enforceable.

Please note that acceptance of these general terms and conditions is an important step in our collaboration.

25. GOVERNING LAW & JURISDICTION

This Agreement, and any disputes or claims arising out of or in connection with it, its subject matter, or its formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of South Africa unless otherwise specified in writing. The parties mutually agree that the High Court of South Africa shall have jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, its subject matter, or its formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims). This jurisdiction is applicable to all clients, providing a designated forum for resolving any disputes or claims arising from this Agreement and ensures reliable judicial procedures for the resolution of legal matters. However, we also recognize that specific considerations may apply to international clients. In the event of disputes involving international clients, we are committed to taking into account any relevant international considerations, laws, and/or agreements to ensure a fair and just resolution process. Although guarantees can’t be made, it is our aim to address any disputes or claims with both local and international clients in a manner that complies with applicable legal frameworks. In the unlikely event that any disputes cannot be resolved amicably through discussion, both local and international clients agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of South Africa, while also taking into account any applicable international considerations, laws, and/or agreements where applicable, unless otherwise specified in writing. This provision ensures an accessible resolution process for all parties involved, irrespective of their location, if it becomes necessary.

Our intention is to foster a positive and cooperative relationship with our clients, and we are committed to addressing any concerns or issues that may arise in a professional manner.

We believe in open and constructive dialogue as the foundation of successful business relationships. Therefore, if you have any concerns or questions regarding these terms and conditions or the jurisdiction specified herein, we encourage you to promptly communicate them with us.
