  • How do cancellations and refunds work?

    a) All sales and Event bookings are final. No exchange, credit or refund will be given except in the case of cancelled or rescheduled Events. It may be necessary for reasons beyond the control of AISA to alter the advertised content, timing and/or location of the Event or the advertised speakers. AISA reserves the right to do this at any time, in which case AISA will provide Registrants with notice of changes. We reserve the right to cancel or postpone an Event or convert it to an online virtual event at any time and for any reason in our sole discretion. If AISA cancels or reschedules an Event, our liability in the Event of cancellation or reschedule is limited to a refund or credit note of the Registration Fee and is subject to the terms and conditions set out below:


    b) Travel and accommodation. You agree that we will not provide a refund for any travel, accommodation or other out-of-pocket costs associated with the cancellation of an Event.


    c) Force majeure. AISA accepts no liability if an Event is cancelled or postponed for reasons beyond our reasonable control resulting from an Act of God, pandemic, governmental regulation, fire, war, terrorist activity, civil commotion or other.


    d) Transfers or substitutions. If a Registrant is unable to attend the Event a substitute delegate may attend. Substitution can be arranged at any time, including on the Site. Each substitution is subject to an administration fee of AU$100 (one hundred Australian Dollars).


    e) Cancellation. If you are no longer able to attend the Event and wish to cancel your registration, please email cyberconnect@aisa.org.au Please note that your cancellation is subject to the following:

    (i) cancellation from date of registration to 31 days (Sunday 26 April 2026) before the Event: 50% refund of the fees;

    (ii) cancellation between 30 days (Monday 27 April 2026) and 15 days (Tuesday 12 May 2026) before the Event: 25% refund of the fees;

    (iii) cancellation 14 days (Wednesday 13 May 2026) or less before the Event: No refund issued;

    (iv) no refunds or credit notes apply for non-attendance or change of mind to attend the Event.


    f) Refund processing. AISA will process refunds in accordance with the Australian Consumer Law for major failures (‘Major Failures’) and minor failures (‘Minor Failures’). For example, a Major Failure occurs where you would not have bought the services if you had known about the defect, the services are significantly different to what was described, the services are substantially unfit for their usual purpose, or a purpose made known to you or the services are unsafe. For major failures or substantial problems with the services as defined under the Australian Consumer Law, you are entitled to a replacement or refund. If the services fail to be of acceptable quality, and the failure does not amount to a Major Failure (‘Minor Failure)’, we are entitled an opportunity to fix the minor problem as long as this is within a reasonable period of time. If we cannot fix the Minor Failure, you are entitled to cancel the contract with us and obtain a refund for the proportion of the services not already consumed at the time of the cancellation. AISA does not offer returns and refunds for ‘buyer’s remorse’, if you do not attend the Event, you arrive late or are refused entry or if you have changed you mind. Except as required by law, any fees paid by you are final and non-refundable. If you would like a refund of fees paid, requests must be made in writing to cyberconnect@aisa.org.au .
