We may update the version of this Agreement on the Site from time to time, and we do not guarantee that the version you have agreed to will remain accessible.

If the price varies from the originally quoted price the customer will have the opportunity to terminate their registration without otherwise affecting their consumer rights. However once the customer has acknowledged that they are happy with the revised price the contract becomes binding.

In addition to the price of the Conference, you may have to pay a delivery charge for any additional merchandise you order, which will be included in the price of the merchandise.
