1. General
These General Terms and Conditions apply to participants registering for the events (business luncheons) organized by the Swiss International Society, a not-for-profit Swiss association registered under Swiss law. By registering and paying the participation fee, participants accept these terms.
2. Registration and Payment
Participation is confirmed upon full pre-payment of the event fee.
3. Cancellation by Participant
a) Cancellation more than two weeks before the event
If a participant cancels more than two weeks prior to the event, a full refund will be issued, minus a CHF 20 administrative fee.
b) Cancellation two weeks or fewer before the event
No reimbursement will be issued for cancellations made 10 days or fewer before the event, regardless of the reason. This is due to the logistical and financial commitments incurred by our not-for-profit organization.
4. Postponement or Cancellation by the Organizer (i.e., Swiss International Society)
a) Postponement or cancellation due to emergency
In the very rare event that the luncheon must be postponed or cancelled due to an emergency (e.g., guest of honor unavailable due to sudden serious illness, unplanned resignation/termination, emergency business trip, etc.), the organizer will notify attendees as soon as possible. In such cases, participants will be offered the choice between:
- transferring their registration to the same rescheduled event or to another similar event, or
- receiving a full refund of the participation fee.
5. Force Majeure
The organizer cannot be held liable for cancellations or changes caused by force majeure, such as natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics, or government-imposed restrictions. In such cases, the organizer will strive to find a fair solution, but reimbursement cannot be guaranteed.
6. Contact
For any questions or to notify a cancellation, please contact us at philippe@internationalsociety.com.
