PRIVACY POLICY

The cost of tuition is as stated for each of the individual courses as listed. All course fees  must be paid in full in accordance with the terms stated. A registration form must be  completed and accompanied by a deposit before a reservation on the course will be  confirmed.  

All deposits are non-refundable under any circumstances. The balance of the course must be  paid before the commencement of all courses. Should a student cancel their booking within 28 days of the commencement date of the course, Golden Paws Grooming Academy will  endeavor to sell that place to another student, failing which all fees will be forfeited and any  outstanding balance will become due immediately.  

Courses are tailored to suit the student and an attendance schedule will be negotiated when  booking a place on a course. Once a booking is made, the course days cannot be changed.  Failure to attend booked days will result in a loss of those course days.  

The proprietors of Golden Paws Grooming Academy reserve the right to refuse to accept a  student for whom they feel any course is unsuitable. No reason for such a decision may be  given.  

Students are expected to be punctual and to co-operate with colleagues so as to ensure the  smooth running and congenial atmosphere of the salon throughout the duration of the course.  Please ensure you are familiar with your course start and finishing times each day.  

In the event of any course having to be cancelled by Golden Paws Grooming Academy before  completion, for whatever reason, participating students will be offered a refund proportionate  to the time lost, or offered the opportunity to continue the course at a time mutually agreed.  

In the event of any course having to be cancelled by Golden Paws Grooming Academy prior  to the starting date, for whatever reason, a full refund will be made to the student. It should be  noted, that Golden Paws Grooming Academy accepts no liability for additional expenses  such as travelling, accommodation fees or other related costs that may have been incurred.
