TERMS &
CONDITIONS
The below
Terms & Conditions applies to all the
charity's advertised events, its participants, donors and/or applicants.
Please note that
there are additional T&Cs, other than
the below, which applies specifically to the Virgin Money London Marathon
and
the New York City Marathon. For the Virgin Money London Marathon and the New
York City Marathon additional T&Cs please see the relevant application
form
or booking form.
As a
participant/applicant I agree, accept and understand the
following: Entry Fees, Registration Fees and donations given to the charity
are
not refundable.
A guaranteed
entry means that the entry is an official event
entry it does not mean that the entry is guaranteed to be allocated, by the
charity, to a participant/s and/or applicant/s. Get Kids Going! reserves the
right to allocate its event entries to participants and/or applicants as it
so
wishes.
If the charity has
subsidised a participant's entry fee for an event and the participant
has been
entered into the event and they have received confirmation of this. If
then,
after the entry deadline, the participant informs the charity that they
are no
longer able to participate in the event for whatever reason and the
participant
has not fundraised or given a donation/s to the charity equivalent to
the full
cost of their entry amount, the charity reserves the right to take the
balance
of the entry fee cost, which the charity has already paid, from the
participant's credit/debit card. This is to prevent the charity
from
being in debt from such circumstances.
The charity
reserves the right to advertise any of its
events or supply information etc., either on line or off line, for as long
as
it requires and/or to include or exclude specific text, dates etc. within
its advertisements,
for as long as it requires so long as the advertisement, information and/or
text given is legal. Please note information on the charity's website is
subject to change at any time.
The charity will,
naturally, endeavour to keep any dates, information
etc. advertised up to date, as much as possible, but it should be noted that
the charity cannot guarantee that any/or all of the information it gives,
either on line or off line, will be up to date and/or relevant at the time
of
advertising.
Donations kindly
given to the charity cannot, under any
circumstances, be refunded or returned either to a participant/s and/or a
donor/s.
Get Kids Going!
is not and/or cannot be responsible for any
participant/s and/or applicant/s who decides to book any travel and/or
accommodation etc. without having received written confirmation from the
charity that the participant/s and/or applicant/s is entered for the event
or
has been allocated one of the charity's entries into the event. This also
applies to all non-participant/s connected, in any way, to the participant/s
and/or applicant/s.
The charity
reserves the right to request that any overseas
participant and/or applicant (ie. any person living or working outside the
UK)
gives their; entry fee, registration fee and/or kind donation/s (in full) to
the charity before the charity agrees to allocate the participant and/or
applicant one of its event entry places.

on
at least a monthly basis, or less if possible, starting from the time the
charity confirms the participant's entry into the event.
