1. Conditions of participation

After filling out the registration form, the Organizer sends the participant an offer that includes the suggested length of the consultation, the price, and the name of the consultant. The application becomes final upon payment of the consultation fee and reservation of the appointment.

The appointment can be rescheduled no later than 12 hours, and cancelled 2 days before the appointment, in the appointlet system. In case of cancellation before the 2nd day before the date, the paid fee will be refunded. In the event that the consultation is not provided, the fee will be returned to the applicant. We will inform the applicant in writing if the consultation is cancelled.

Consultation takes place online in the Zoom system.

The participants declare that they are aware that consultation is an active and responsible process based on free will, in which the implementation of all planned tasks and results is the sole responsibility of the participant. The participants themselves decide to what extent and how they incorporate and utilize the knowledge acquired during the consultation, for which the consultant assumes no responsibility either during or after the process.

The consultants perform their work independently based on their best professional knowledge and insight, taking into account their professional and ethical obligations.

During the consultation session, the participants are obliged to refrain from any expression or behaviour that may infringe on the rights or legitimate interests (especially their personal rights, life, health or physical integrity) of others. In case of behaviour contrary to these rules, the participant who violates the rules must leave the consultation session immediately at the request of the Organizer (or the Organizer’s employee/representative).

The Organizer is bound by an obligation of confidentiality with regard to the application for consultation and all information obtained during consultation. The Organizer and the consultant declare that they will not disclose the information and materials they have come to know or made available to them during their work, as well as their own notes and other written documents. The obligation of confidentiality exists both during the consultation period and afterwards. The Organizer and the consultant undertake to keep their own notes and written materials provided to them by the participant in such a way that they will not be accessible to third parties in accordance with the provisions of the data protection policy.
