1. Introduction:

Registration will not occur until any registration fee is fully paid. In the event instalment payments are permitted and an instalment payment by credit/debit card is for any reason declined, registration will not be provided and ongoing participation in the programme will not be permitted.

Amplified Arts Academy is an initiative of Hillsong Church. By registering through this website, you enter into a legally binding contract with Hillsong Church London, a UK charitable, not for profit company, limited by guarantee, (No: 5487537) (“Hillsong”) which contract, is governed by these terms and conditions.

2. Your Status and Website Registration:

By placing an order through our website you confirm to Hillsong that:

You are 16+ years of age
Where the registration is for a child, you are the parent/legal guardian or registered Caregiver of the Child named on the registration form
Where the registration is for a child, you will make your child aware of the relevant clauses of these Terms and Conditions
Are able legally to enter into a binding contract
You have completed the programme registration procedure, including any parental consents required
The details you provide during the registration process are complete and correct. You are also obliged immediately to inform us of any changes to the details you have provided to us during the registration process by updating the information through our website. Hillsong is not responsible for any loss or damage you suffer as a result of your failure to provide us with correct and up-to-date information.

3. Contract Formation:

a. YOUR REGISTRATION DOES NOT BY ITSELF COMPLETE A CONTRACT WITH HILLSONG. In registering through our website you make an offer to Hillsong. Hillsong may decline to accept an offer for any reason whatsoever (including, but not limited to, inability to take payment from you), and will have no liability in respect of refusing, or otherwise failing, to accept an offer.

b. After you register with us, you will receive an e-mail asking you to sign up to pay your fees via Go Cardless. Once you have entered your bank details, we will charge you your first fee instalment. At this point your offer is accepted and there is a contract between us.

4. Prices and Payment:

a. Registration on our website must be made through one of our chosen payment services providers. In order to make a payment through one of these providers, you will need a credit or debit card.

b. When a credit or debit card is added as a payment method during the checkout process before the registration is accepted, a pre-authorisation for the full registration, or if instalments are permitted, the instalment amount of the registration will take place against the credit or debit card. At this point Hillsong has not taken payment. This is a check, to ensure that the credit or debit card will allow payment or instalment payment to be taken when the order is placed. Only once authorised, does Hillsong take payments.

c. In the event your credit or debit card is declined and full payment or all instalments are not paid, we will email to advise that registration has not been completed.

5. Refunds and Transfers:

5.1 Refunds

a. You are not entitled to a refund, however refunds may be provided under certain circumstances at the full discretion of Hillsong.
