These general terms and conditions apply to an agreement you make with the Institute for Quantum Transformation ApS, registered in Denmark, Nordre Fasanvej 230, 2200 Copenhagen, CVR: 38476432 (further referred to as “the Institute”, or “us”) regarding participation to the Kama Sutra Couples Retreat, taking place in Hedonism II Resort in Negril, Jamaica, operated by PB & J Resorts II (Jamaica) Ltd., (further referred to as “the Resort”).
Please read this document carefully before signing up to participate in the Kama Sutra Couples Retreat.

Applicability

These general terms and conditions apply to all offers and agreements made with clients or (potential) participants, further referred to as “the Client”, with regard to the Kama Sutra Couples Retreat, further referred to as “the Retreat”.

The provisions of the terms and conditions come into effect once the Client signs up to the Retreat, by taking any action towards attending the Retreat, including the application to participate, making the payment or attending the Retreat.

Terms of Service

Kama Sutra Couples Retreat is taking place in Hedonism II Resort in Negril, Jamaica. The Retreat consists of a specially tailored programme of lectures, exercises and various activities on the subject of the couple relationship and related topics, conducted by specialised teachers and supporting team.

Accommodation at Hedonism II Resort is included in the Retreat. While our team is dedicated to offer caring assistance to the Client, all matters related to the Client’s stay in the Resort, access to the Resort’s amenities and services that are not directly connected to the activities of the Retreat should be addressed by the Client directly to the Resort staff.

Additional services such as accommodation in the Resort beyond the days listed in the Retreat offering, health insurance, visas and transportation are not offered by the Institute, and fall within the responsibility of each participant.

Payment

Payment for the Retreat must be made in full via one of the options made available on the Retreat checkout page. Access to the Retreat will be granted based on confirmation of payment (eg. proof of payment in case a bank transfer has been made, and where funds are yet to reach the Institute’s bank account).

Cancellation & Refund Policy

Cancellation by the Institute: In the unlikely circumstances that the Institute would need to cancel, postpone or reschedule the provision of the agreed services, we will aim to give the Client as much notice as possible about these changes.

Should the event need to be rescheduled, any fees paid directly to the Institute, related to the direct provision of the agreed service will be allocated to the new date. Should the Client not be able to attend the new date, fees for the Retreat will be reimbursed on request. The Institute cannot, however, be held responsible for fees paid to 3rd parties or costs incurred by the client, such as travel costs, insurance etc.

Cancellation by the Client: If the client wishes to cancel the agreement, separate terms apply in regard to the fees for the Retreat and for their accommodation in the Resort, as per the following.

In regards to the Retreat fee:

  • A full refund may be issued for cancellations made up to 80 days before the first day of the Retreat.
  • A 50% refund may be issued if cancellation takes place within a period 79-30 days before the first day of the Retreat.
  • No refund shall be issued for cancellations made less than 30 days before the first day of the Retreat.

In regards to accommodation, the standard terms of Hedonism II Resort apply:

  • A full refund can be issued for cancellations made up to 31 nights before the first day of the intended stay in the Resort.
  • A refund, with a deduction of $250/person (ie. $500 per couple) will be issued for cancellations made between 31 and 8 days prior to the first day of the intended stay in the Resort.
  • No refund shall be issued for cancellations made 7 or less days before the first day of the intended stay in the Resort.

Refunds of the Retreat fee will be processed within 7 days from the date of receipt of cancellation notification, made to us in writing, by email, to the following address: info@kama-sutra-palace.com

Refunds can only be issued to the same source (card/bank account) from which the original payment was made. Please note that in some cases refunds issued via bank transfer may take up to 14 days to reach your account from the moment we process the refund.

Refund of accommodation fees will be processed separately, and will be sent to the same card/account from which the payment was initially made. Also in this case, bank transfers may take up to 14 days to reach your account from the date of processing (this will depend on the time it takes for Hedonism II Resort to process the refund on their side).

Issue of refunds for extra days that the Client may have booked directly with Hedonism II Resort need to be addressed with the Resort.

Audio / Video Recordings and Photography

In order to be able to offer participants to the Retreat a private and intimate atmosphere, it will not be permitted to make any audio/video recordings or take photographs during the Retreat activities.

Audio and video recordings of the teachers only may be made by the Institute for internal training purposes and promotion. If the Client wishes, any recording of their voice can be removed from these recordings. We ask that such requests are made in writing to the Institute and sent to the same email address mentioned above.

Liability

By agreeing to these Terms & Conditions, the Client declares that they do not have any past or present mental, physical, emotional or other state or condition that could reasonably affect their decision to harmoniously attend and participate in the activities of the Kama Sutra Couples’ Retreat at Hedonism II, and acknowledges the following:

  • The retreat is designed to share knowledge and practical methods for the Client to experiment with and use at their own discretion, both within the retreat and in the future.
  • The Client, as well as the other participants, can choose to be naked or partially naked during the activities.
  • The Retreat teachers may also be naked or partially naked.
  • The Client is not obliged to participate in any or all of the activities within the Retreat programme. If participants meet any challenges, they are welcome to speak with a team member or teacher at any time.
  • The Client may be warned, or even asked to leave the Retreat, if they or the person they are with act in a manner deemed inappropriate towards the team or other Retreat participants (eg. touching inappropriately). In such situations the Client forfeits all Retreat fees paid.

The Institute reserves the unconditional right to terminate, suspend, or revoke the participation rights of any individual or couple at any time, with immediate effect, and without prior notice or obligation to provide any reason or justification for such decision. This right may be exercised at the sole discretion of the Institute, and the decision shall be final and binding. No liability shall be incurred by the Institute as a result of such termination, suspension, or revocation of participation rights. The Client hereby waives any claims, demands, or legal actions against the Institute arising from or related to the exercise of this right.

If such termination, suspension, or revocation of participation rights takes place before the Retreat begins, the Client will receive a full refund. If such termination, suspension, or revocation of participation rights occurs during the Retreat, any refund issued will take into consideration and deduct expenses incurred by the Institute as a result of the Client’s participation in the Retreat.

During the Client’s stay in the Resort, the Client is obliged to respect the general rules of the venue. If, as a result of breaking these rules, the Client will be asked to leave the venue, no refund will be issued.

The Resort, the Institute, their employees, agents or independent contractors do not take responsibility for personal injury, psychological discomfort or damage/loss of property of the Client during or as a result of the events and activities within the Retreat.

The Client hereby waives all rights and causes of action of whatever nature which they or their personal representatives or dependants may have against the Resort or the Institute, their employees, agents or independent contractors and hereby forever releases the Resort, the Institute, their employees, agents or independent contractors from any personal injury (including injury or death) which the Client may suffer as a result of, or in connection with, the Client’s use of the Resort (including but not limited to the Kama Sutra Palace), the Client’s presence in the area of the Resort (including but not limited to the Kama Sutra Palace) or which may in any way be attributable to treatments or events organised and carried out at or in relation to the Resort (including but not limited to the Kama Sutra Palace), save where any such injury or death is as a direct result of negligence by the Resort, the Institute, their employees, agents or independent contractors.
