TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Organising a sporting event requires a considerable amount of forward planning, time, risk and expense. Approximately 9 – 12 months prior to our events taking place, work begins and costs are incurred. These include administrative, insurance, advertising, marketing, equipment, website and staff costs. As an event draws nearer, we continue to incur costs, many in relation to the number of entrants in the event.

Whilst we are investing into the cost of staging our events, there is no guarantee of their success, making financial planning an integral part of our events, event management and promotion. For this reason our ‘Terms and Conditions’ are here to ensure we are able to provide athletes with continued safe and enjoyable events.

1. Definitions
   1.1 BustinSkin Events Ltd are the organisers of the event unless stated otherwise.
   1.2 The event refers to any event listed on the organiser’s website (www.bustinskin.com).
   1.3 An entry refers to payment received for either an individual application or a relay application for the event.
   1.4 The entrant refers to the individual or relay that has put in an entry for the event.
2. Conditions of Entry
   2.1 By entering the event, all applicants agree to abide by our terms and conditions as listed.
   2.2 This includes all members of a relay team
   2.3 We rely on the details of an entry to process the entrants application. Without accurate information, we would not process the entrants entry.

   3.1 An acceptance email will be sent confirming the entry to the event, from our online payment partner, if you have entered online.
   3.3 It is the entrant’s responsibility to the organisers if any of the entry details are incorrect so they can be corrected by the time the event closes to entries.
   3.4 The organisers cannot guarantee that any changes can be implemented if they are received after the event has closed for entries.
4. Competitor Withdrawal
   With most events (sports, cinema, theatre, concerts, etc), if after paying for them you have to withdraw, you will not receive a refund, regardless of the reason (injury, pregnancy, illness, holiday, business / work, etc). However, if you do need to withdraw from the organiser’s events and provided we get enough notice, we are prepared to give you an element of your entry fee back, providing you follow our withdrawals policy:
   4.1 Any withdrawals must be sent in an email to racewithdrawal@bustinskin.com which must be followed up by a letter.
   4.2 The date of your withdrawal is the date of the email.
