Return Policy

Last Updated:

Overview

At Xlozarinyx, we are committed to providing exceptional creative workshop experiences. We understand that circumstances change, and sometimes plans need to be adjusted. This Return Policy outlines our policies regarding workshop cancellations, rescheduling, refunds, and related matters. Please read this policy carefully before registering for any of our workshops.

By registering for a workshop or purchasing any services from Xlozarinyx, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Return Policy. If you have any questions about this policy, please contact us before making a purchase.

Workshop Cancellation by Participants

We recognize that unexpected situations may arise that prevent you from attending a scheduled workshop. Our cancellation policy is designed to be fair to both our participants and our business, as we prepare materials and allocate instructor time well in advance of each workshop.

Cancellation More Than 14 Days Before Workshop

If you cancel your workshop registration more than 14 days (two weeks) before the scheduled workshop date, you are eligible for a full refund of your registration fee. The refund will be processed to your original payment method within 5-10 business days of your cancellation request. To request a cancellation, please contact us by phone or email with your registration details and confirmation number.

Cancellation 7-14 Days Before Workshop

If you cancel your workshop registration between 7 and 14 days before the scheduled workshop date, you will receive a 50% refund of your registration fee. The remaining 50% covers materials that have been prepared specifically for your participation and instructor time that has been allocated. Alternatively, you may choose to receive a full credit that can be applied to any future workshop within six months of the original workshop date.

Cancellation Less Than 7 Days Before Workshop

If you cancel your workshop registration less than 7 days before the scheduled workshop date, you will not be eligible for a refund. However, we understand that emergencies happen. In cases of documented medical emergencies, family emergencies, or other extraordinary circumstances, we may offer a credit for a future workshop at our discretion. Please contact us to discuss your specific situation.

No-Show Policy

If you fail to attend a scheduled workshop without prior notification, you will not be eligible for any refund or credit. We encourage you to contact us as soon as possible if you know you will be unable to attend, even if it is within the 7-day window, so we can discuss potential options.

Workshop Rescheduling by Participants

We understand that your schedule may change, and we strive to accommodate rescheduling requests whenever possible. Our rescheduling policy is as follows:

Rescheduling More Than 7 Days Before Workshop

If you request to reschedule your workshop more than 7 days before the originally scheduled date, we will transfer your registration to another available workshop date at no additional charge. This transfer is subject to availability in the workshop you wish to attend. You may reschedule up to two times; additional rescheduling requests may incur an administrative fee.

Rescheduling Less Than 7 Days Before Workshop

If you request to reschedule less than 7 days before the originally scheduled workshop date, you may transfer your registration to another workshop, but a rescheduling fee of 25% of the workshop cost will apply. This fee covers the materials and preparation costs already incurred for your original workshop date.

Emergency Rescheduling

In cases of documented emergencies (medical emergencies, family emergencies, severe weather affecting travel, etc.), we will make every effort to accommodate rescheduling without fees, subject to availability. Please contact us as soon as possible with documentation of your emergency situation.

Workshop Cancellation by Xlozarinyx

While rare, there may be circumstances under which we need to cancel or reschedule a workshop. In such cases, we will make every effort to provide you with as much advance notice as possible and will work with you to find a suitable solution.

Full Refund or Transfer

If we cancel a workshop for any reason, you will be offered a choice between a full refund of your registration fee or a transfer to another available workshop date at no additional charge. If you choose a refund, it will be processed within 5-10 business days to your original payment method.

Insufficient Enrollment

Our workshops require a minimum number of participants to run. If enrollment falls below this minimum, we reserve the right to cancel the workshop up to 48 hours before the scheduled start time. In such cases, you will be notified immediately and offered the choice of a full refund or transfer to another workshop.

Instructor Unavailability

If an instructor becomes unavailable due to illness or emergency and we cannot secure a qualified substitute, we may need to cancel or reschedule the workshop. We will provide as much notice as possible and work with you to find an acceptable alternative.

Facility Issues

In the event of facility problems, severe weather, or other circumstances beyond our control that make it unsafe or impossible to hold a workshop, we will cancel or reschedule the workshop and provide you with options for a refund or transfer.

No Liability for Additional Costs

While we will do everything possible to avoid canceling workshops, Xlozarinyx is not liable for any additional costs you may incur as a result of workshop cancellation, including but not limited to travel expenses, accommodation costs, or lost wages. We recommend purchasing travel insurance if you are traveling from out of town to attend a workshop.

Refund Processing

All approved refunds will be processed according to the following procedures:

Processing Time

Refunds are typically processed within 5-10 business days of approval. Please note that depending on your financial institution, it may take an additional 3-5 business days for the refund to appear in your account. We will send you a confirmation email once the refund has been processed on our end.

Refund Method

Refunds will be issued to the original payment method used for the purchase. If the original payment method is no longer available or valid, please contact us to arrange an alternative refund method. We cannot issue refunds to a different person or payment method than was used for the original purchase without proper documentation.

Partial Refunds

In cases where a partial refund is applicable according to our cancellation policy, the refund amount will be clearly communicated to you before processing. Any transaction fees or processing fees incurred during the original purchase may be deducted from refunds at our discretion.

Workshop Credits

If you choose to receive a workshop credit instead of a refund, the credit will be applied to your account and can be used toward any future workshop within the specified time period. Credits are non-transferable and cannot be exchanged for cash. You will receive a confirmation email with your credit details and instructions for using the credit when registering for a future workshop.

Group Bookings and Private Workshops

Special terms apply to group bookings and private workshops, which are typically customized experiences for organizations, parties, or special events.

Group Booking Cancellations

Group bookings (defined as 6 or more participants booking together) require a deposit at the time of booking. This deposit is non-refundable but may be transferred to a different date if cancellation occurs more than 30 days before the scheduled workshop. Cancellations made less than 30 days before the workshop date will result in forfeiture of the full payment.

Private Workshop Cancellations

Private workshops are fully customized experiences and require significant advance planning and material preparation. A non-refundable deposit of 50% is required at booking. If you cancel more than 30 days before the scheduled date, the remaining 50% will be refunded or may be applied to a rescheduled date. Cancellations made less than 30 days before the workshop date will result in forfeiture of the full payment.

Participant Number Changes

If you need to reduce the number of participants in a group booking, please notify us as soon as possible. Reductions made more than 14 days before the workshop will result in a prorated refund for the reduced participants. Reductions made less than 14 days before the workshop may not be eligible for refund, as materials have already been prepared.

Materials and Supplies

All workshop fees include the cost of materials and supplies needed for the session. These items are prepared specifically for each participant and workshop.

Materials Provided

Workshop fees include all necessary materials such as papers, adhesives, cutting tools, magazines, specialty supplies, and any other items needed to complete the workshop projects. You do not need to bring any materials unless specifically noted in the workshop description.

Take-Home Materials

All projects created during the workshop, along with your finished pieces, are yours to take home. Any unused materials provided during the workshop remain the property of Xlozarinyx and should be left at the studio unless otherwise indicated by the instructor.

No Refunds for Unused Materials

If you choose not to use certain materials or supplies during the workshop, you are not entitled to any refund or credit for those unused items. The workshop fee covers access to all materials, not just those you choose to use.

Workshop Transfers

In certain circumstances, you may transfer your workshop registration to another person.

Transfer Policy

You may transfer your workshop registration to another person at any time before the workshop with no fee, provided you notify us at least 48 hours before the workshop start time. The person receiving the transfer must meet any age or skill requirements for the workshop. To process a transfer, please contact us with the full name and contact information of the person who will be attending in your place.

Transfer Limitations

Workshop registrations cannot be transferred to a different workshop date or type without following the standard rescheduling policy. Credits and promotional offers are non-transferable and must be used by the original purchaser unless otherwise specified.

Special Circumstances

We understand that life is unpredictable, and we strive to be as accommodating as possible while maintaining fair policies for all participants.

Medical Emergencies

If you are unable to attend a workshop due to a medical emergency (your own or that of an immediate family member), please contact us as soon as possible. With appropriate documentation (such as a note or documentation from a relevant professional), we will work with you to reschedule your workshop or provide a credit for a future date, regardless of how close to the workshop date the emergency occurs.

Weather and Travel Disruptions

If severe weather or significant travel disruptions prevent you from attending a workshop, please contact us. While we cannot offer refunds for weather-related cancellations initiated by participants, we will work with you to reschedule your workshop to another date at no additional charge, subject to availability.

Bereavement

In cases of bereavement, we will work with you compassionately to either reschedule your workshop or provide a full refund, regardless of the timing. Please contact us to discuss your situation, and we will accommodate you in the best way possible during this difficult time.

Promotional Offers and Discounts

From time to time, we may offer promotional discounts, special offers, or gift certificates. Special terms apply to these offers.

Discount and Promotion Terms

Promotional discounts cannot be combined with other offers unless explicitly stated. Discounts apply only to the specific workshops or time periods indicated in the promotion. Once a promotion has expired, you cannot retroactively apply it to a previous or future purchase.

Gift Certificates

Gift certificates are valid for the time period specified on the certificate (typically one year from purchase date). Gift certificates are non-refundable but may be transferred to another person. If a workshop costs more than the gift certificate value, the difference must be paid at the time of registration. If a workshop costs less than the gift certificate value, the remaining balance will be retained as a credit for future use.

Promotional Workshop Registrations

If you register for a workshop using a promotional code or special offer, different cancellation terms may apply. These terms will be clearly communicated at the time of registration. In general, heavily discounted or complimentary workshop registrations may have more restrictive cancellation and refund policies.

Disputes and Resolution

We are committed to customer satisfaction and will work with you to resolve any concerns about our Return Policy.

Dispute Process

If you have a concern about a refund, cancellation, or any aspect of this Return Policy, please contact us directly first. We find that most issues can be resolved through direct communication. Please provide as much detail as possible about your situation, including your registration information, the specific issue, and what resolution you are seeking.

Resolution Timeline

We will respond to all dispute inquiries within 2 business days and will work diligently to reach a resolution within 7 business days. In complex situations, resolution may take longer, but we will keep you informed of progress throughout the process.

Final Decision

While we strive to be fair and accommodating, Xlozarinyx reserves the right to make final decisions regarding refunds, credits, and policy exceptions. Our decisions will be based on the specific circumstances of each situation, our standard policies, and what we believe to be fair to all parties involved.

Changes to This Return Policy

We reserve the right to update or modify this Return Policy at any time. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting to our website. Your continued use of our services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

If we make significant changes to this Return Policy that materially affect your rights, we will provide notice through our website or by email to registered participants. However, it is your responsibility to check for updates before registering for workshops.

Registrations made before a policy change will generally be governed by the policy in effect at the time of registration, unless the change is required by law or addresses a significant business need.
