CANCELLATION POLICY

NEURO NEW ME can make changes in the places, location and/or schedule of the training action whenever necessary, for reasons of force major and as long as this does not make the objectives defined for it unfeasible, committing the cases to communicate as changes as early as possible to all registered participants.

NEURO NEW ME must carry out the training actions in the disclosed data, being able to make changes for reasons of force majeure. All changes are communicated to the participants in the shortest possible time, not giving them the right to any compensation.

The amount and payment terms applicable to each selection action are indicated in the promotional material. The payment must be settled before the training action starts and the respective proof of payment sent to: neuronewm@gmail.com.

Payments can be made by deposit or bank transfer to the NIB provided by NEURO NEW ME.

Whenever a training action does not gather the minimum number of participants at the beginning of the data, it will be scheduled for a new date.
