TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF TICKET SALES AND CANCELLATION POLICY FOR WORKSHOPS BY HELEN CLAIRE GOULD FOR HELEN CLAIRE GOULD BOOKS AT WWW.ZARDUTH.COM

These Terms and Conditions of Workshop Tickets Booking relate only to workshop tickets purchased from Helen Claire Gould Books, although they cover tickets booked through www.Zarduth.com and those booked directly from the site owner, Helen Claire Gould. They do not relate to any tickets for any other purpose, purchased from any other site.

These terms and conditions can be downloaded from www.Zarduth.com and printed off. Tickets paid for by cheque are dealt with directly by Helen Claire Gould Books, but the same terms and conditions apply to their sale.

All details of Workshops, including, but not limited to, workshop start and end times, venue, ticket prices and place availability are entered onto the www.Zarduth.com website and checked for accuracy by Helen Claire Gould for Helen Claire Gould Books.

Tickets relate to events at specific venues and dates, and cannot be transferred between venues for the customer’s convenience; however, some information will be given on the website about the availability of public transport, parking and facilities at each venue used. Tickets cannot be transferred from one customer to another, however, it is possible to buy a ticket for another person (i.e. as a present). This is in addition to your statutory rights.

Tickets purchased directly through the site www.Zarduth.com are paid for via Paypal for your security, via buttons on the site created by the site owner through Paypal, which simply handles the payment process and collection of payments on behalf of Helen Claire Gould Books. Tickets purchased by telephone can be paid for by cheque, made payable to Mrs H C Gould.

Whether you purchase a workshop ticket by phone or from the site, your details will go onto a registration list, to be confirmed at the start of the workshop, during the registration period. At the workshop you will have the option to leave your contact details so that you can be contacted when new workshops are booked, but if you choose not to do that, your details will be removed from our mailing list.

When you purchase a workshop ticket via Paypal, clicking the button on the website takes you through to Paypal. There you will be asked to log in and complete details of your purchase through the website, and an e-mail will be sent to the Helen Claire Gould Books to notify the website owner that a purchase has been made. You will then receive your tickets by e-mail as an attachment which can be printed off to take with you to the workshop.

Tickets can be issued in either of two formats:

  • E-Tickets (e-mailed to you immediately following the successful purchase of tickets and that you will need to print and present at the venue);
  • Traditional tickets (sent to you by post (time permitting) prior to the event).

Your contract begins when you purchase a ticket for a workshop and ends either when you attend the workshop, or when you return the ticket within the 14-day cooling-off period for a refund.

The Returns address is the same as the Purchase address for tickets purchased over the telephone:

Helen Claire Gould Books reserves the right to re-sell your place on the course concerned once you have notified us that you cannot attend and will require a refund.

Refunds and exchanges

If the ticket you receive is not what you ordered (incorrect ticket), please return it for the correct ticket by contacting Helen Claire Gould Books via the website (www.Zarduth.com) or by telephone (01733-232127). Helen Claire Gould Books is unable to exchange tickets for any other reason. All cancellation claims must be supported by evidence of payment (i.e. the ticket). If it was delivered to you via e-mail, please return it by e-mail, and if it was delivered to you via Royal Mail, please post it back by Royal Mail.

Provided the original ticket is returned to us within 7 days, your postage costs will be refunded.

Incorrect Tickets returned for exchange: in accordance with our returns policy, if you are returning a ticket because of an error on our part, we will refund any postage incurred in returning the ticket to us. This does not apply to tickets delivered to you via e-mail.

Your Statutory Rights

14-day cooling-off period: UK and EU regulations require a 14-day cooling-off period following the purchase of tickets for our workshops. To cancel your purchase within the fourteen-day cooling-off period, please contact us without delay, especially if near the time when the course is due to run; and return the relevant ticket(s), by post if sent to you by post, or as an e-mail attachment if sent to you by e-mail, and send it to us, with the delivery note, so that we receive it within fourteen days of the day after the date that the ticket was delivered to you.

We will refund the cost of the ticket within 21 days from the date you contact us, either by phone or by e-mail.

 Please note that all cancellation claims must be supported by evidence of payment (i.e. the ticket). We will, however, not pay for the return of the ticket by post should you simply change your mind. This policy is in accordance with your statutory rights.

Helen Claire Gould Books do not deliver or accept orders for workshop tickets outside the UK (see delivery costs section above) or collect tickets from clients.

We will only refund your costs in returning the ticket to us if you return it to us because of an error on our part. This is in addition to your statutory rights. Please note that you will therefore be responsible for the costs of returning the ticket to us should you decide to cancel your order. If we do not receive the ticket back from you with the delivery e-mail or slip, we may arrange for collection of the ticket from you at your cost.

On receipt of notice of your cancellation of an order, we will refund the relevant part of the purchase price for that ticket, together with the ticket’s normal postage charge – we cannot refund any priority, express or courier component of the postage charge.
