Terms and Conditions

In booking a Mothership Writers course online, you agree to the following terms and conditions:

Bookings
Your booking is only secure when we have full payment via PayPal. You should not consider your booking as definite until you have received email confirmation. 

Cancellations
The course fee is payable in full at the time of booking. We have a 7-day cancellation policy for courses; if you are unable to attend your course, please cancel a minimum of 7 days before it is due to begin. If you decide to withdraw from the course after that date, or once it is underway, you won't be entitled to a refund.

Technical requirements
We ask that you install Zoom and have a Zoom account set up and tested before the course begins. 

Transfers
Should you book on one Mothership course and then wish to transfer to another within the same season (for instance Summer Mondays to Summer Tuesdays), this will only be possible if the other course still has places still available. If the other course is fully booked then a transfer will not be possible. Transfers to courses in different seasons (for instance Summer to Autumn) are not possible. For any queries of this kind, contact Mothership Writers direct. 

Conduct
Mothership workshops are supportive and friendly places that are reliant on the understanding of all participants and the tutor. We therefore ask that you are thoughtful and respectful of the group, and help foster the right environment: positive encouragement and great writing community. 

Mothership Writers reserves the right to refuse a place and/or to exclude from the course any writer who, in the opinion of the tutor, behaves in an abusive or disruptive manner or engages in any discriminatory conduct. No refund will be given if exclusion is made for these reasons.

Privacy and data
By booking, you agree that we may collect and store personal information about you and your interactions with Mothership Writers. This includes: your personal contact details; the age of your child; details of your booking and booking history, records of payments (not including credit/debit cards numbers, etc.); any correspondence and any other information we need to keep in order to administer your booking. All personal information is kept securely on electronic systems. We do not store payment card details. We will use this information to communicate with you about your booking and we will, unless you tell us otherwise, include you on the list for the Mothership Writers fortnightly newsletter. We never share or sell information about our course participants with any third party, either in aggregate or in individual form.
