TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Please read the following terms and conditions carefully before booking any classes with Well Done Cooking Classes.  These Terms and Conditions constitute a legal and binding contract between Well Done Cooking Classes, Southern Cadence Cuisine Company, and each of their affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents (“Well Done”) and you (the “Agreement”).  By purchasing and/or participating in any classes, you agree that you have read, understand, and are bound by all provisions in this Agreement.

CANCELLATION POLICY

WELL DONE DOES NOT ISSUE REFUNDS under any circumstances. However, we do have a credit account system on our website for your convenience. You must cancel your class online in your account at least three days, a full 72 hours, before the beginning of class time to get credits put into your Well Done registration account.

CREDITS ARE VALID TOWARDS FUTURE CLASS RESERVATIONS AND ARE NOT REFUNDED TO YOUR CARD. You may use these credits when re-registering in the future during the checkout process. They never expire. Within the 72 hours before your class starts, due to space limitations, you may give your seat(s) to others, but you cannot cancel your seat and are ineligible for any credits.

If you have a gift certificate, please double-check your “Order Total” BEFORE checking out. If you charge the entire amount to your credit card without applying your gift certificate, there will be a $10 per seat refund fee. If you need help booking your seats, please email us at reservations[at]welldonecc.com.

PLEASE NOTE: THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS ON CLASS OR GIFT CERTIFICATE PURCHASES.

SEVERABILITY.  If any term or provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be construed to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, then such term, provision, covenant or remedy shall be reformed and construed in a manner so as to permit its enforceability under the applicable law to the fullest extent permitted by law, or if such is not possible, severed from the Agreement.  In any case, the remaining provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstances, other than those to which they have been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect.
