Additionally, we may notify the teacher of your purchase and give the correct contact information.

Please keep in mind that any refunds will be made through the original form of payment.

Under this policy, you may cancel your purchase of the course within the period of 14 calendar days from the date on which the contract of purchase is concluded.
