PositiviTEA Conference 2026 – Terms & Conditions

We’re really looking forward to welcoming you to the PositiviTEA Conference. To help everything run smoothly, please take a moment to read the following terms and conditions.

1. Tickets & Registration

• All attendees must register through Eventbrite with accurate personal details.

• Tickets are non-transferable without prior agreement from the organisers. Name changes due to typos may be permitted free of charge up to 7 days before the event. Other transfer requests will be considered at our discretion and may incur an administration fee.

• Ensure you select the correct ticket category for your professional status. We cannot guarantee the ability to change ticket types after purchase.

• This is a live event and will not be recorded. You are not permitted to record/transcribe any element of the event.

• Buddy Tickets:

• Buddy tickets allow two people of the same professional category to attend at a discounted rate.

• Buddy tickets are only available for the same ticket type. For example, TEPs can only bring a TEP with them on their buddy ticket.

• Buddy ticket purchases operate on the understanding that the purchaser is fully responsible for the total payment.

• The purchaser is the legal ticket holder for both places. All correspondence, refund requests, and ticket amendments must be made by the original purchaser. Buddies cannot independently exercise ticket rights without the purchaser's involvement.

• It is the purchaser's responsibility to arrange reimbursement from their buddy independently.

• Any disputes between buddy ticket holders regarding payment, attendance, or use of tickets are private matters. The organisers' only obligation is to the original purchaser as the legal ticket holder.

• Both attendees must register their details through the purchaser's Eventbrite account.

• When purchasing buddy tickets, the purchaser confirms they have obtained consent from their buddy to register their personal details via the purchaser's Eventbrite account. The buddy consents to their data being processed in accordance with these terms and conditions.

• The event link is solely for ticket holders and must not be shared beyond ticket holders.

• Once a single ticket has been bought, it is not possible to swap/upgrade to a buddy ticket afterwards.

• If one buddy cannot attend, the purchaser may nominate a replacement of the same professional category, subject to availability and at the organisers' discretion. Alternatively, the purchaser may request a partial refund for one half of the buddy ticket (see refunds section) or forfeit the unused portion without refund. Access links are unique to ticket holders and must not be shared. Sharing access details may result in account suspension without refund.

• Technical Requirements: You must have a stable internet connection (minimum 5 Mbps), a compatible device (desktop/laptop recommended), and an up-to-date web browser. Mobile devices may have limited functionality.

• Platform Access: Event access links will be sent to registered attendees 48 hours before the conference. Links are unique to each ticket holder and must not be shared. Technical testing sessions will be available 24 hours prior to the event.

• Technical Support: Limited technical support will be available on the day via the chat function. We cannot guarantee resolution of individual technical issues and are not responsible for connectivity problems or device malfunctions.

2. Accessibility & Participation

• We are committed to making this event accessible. Please contact the organisers at least 7 days before the event to request accessibility accommodations such as live closed captioning or screen reader compatibility.

• Participation in interactive elements is optional. Camera and microphone use is at your discretion, though some activities may be enhanced by active participation.

• If you need to cancel your place, refunds are available up to 14 days before the event, minus Eventbrite’s booking fees.

• Unfortunately, we’re unable to offer refunds for cancellations made within 14 days of the event.

• If one person from a buddy ticket cancels, a partial refund of 50% of the buddy ticket price (representing one person’s portion) is available, minus applicable Eventbrite service fees. The remaining ticket holder may nominate a replacement of the same professional category, subject to availability and at the organisers' discretion. We cannot facilitate finding replacement attendees.

• All refunds requested by ticket holders will be processed excluding Eventbrite’s service fees. Eventbrite fees are non-refundable, and therefore any refund issued will cover only the ticket price minus applicable Eventbrite fees.

• If the event is cancelled by the organisers, you will receive a full refund including Eventbrite fees within 14 days.

• If the event is postponed by the organisers for any reason, your ticket will automatically be transferred to the new date. If you cannot make the new date, you may request a full refund (including Eventbrite fees) within 10 days of the postponement announcement.
