Refund Policy
I understand that a minimum 50% deposit is required to confirm my booking, or that I may pay the full retreat cost upon registration if I prefer. I understand that my balance must be paid in full at least 6 weeks prior to the start of the retreat to guarantee my space. If I make a deposit with a credit card, the Kawsay Retreat E.I.R.L. will charge that card automatically for the outstanding balance 6 weeks prior to the start of my retreat.
I understand that if I cancel my registration more than 8 weeks prior to the start of my retreat, I may transfer to a different retreat or transfer my payment to personal credit to be used for a future retreat in the next 2 years. I understand that I will not receive a refund. I understand that if I cancel my registration within 8 weeks of the start of my retreat, I may only transfer to a different retreat or transfer my payment to personal credit to be used for a future retreat in the next 2 years if Kawsay Retreat E.I.R.L. can fill my place in the retreat.
I understand that I will not receive a refund.
If we have to cancel or postpone a scheduled retreat workshop due to unforeseen circumstances or events beyond our control (examples of such events are war, famine, political unrest, and/or “Acts of God”) you will be given full credit for all payments paid. This credit can be used towards registration and payment for a later scheduled retreat workshop.
