The announcements will be made through the email informed in the Application Form; (ii) After the 10-day term, the will be applied the “Return policy in case of cancellation requested by the participant”, according to item “c” above; (iii) If it occurs after the start of the event: there will be no refund, but an option to reschedule the dates or offer an alternative service, proportional to the damages incurred by each party. In no event will DanzaMedicina cover any administrative costs, fees, charges, tickets, accommodation or food resulting from unforeseeable circumstances or force majeure. In either case, the vacancy is transferable as long as communicated to the DanzaMedicina prior to the start date of the activities.
