These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of the website humantools.co.za (“the Website”) and your participation in the Human Tools Experience programme (“the Programme”), operated by Human Tools (PTY) Ltd (“Human Tools”, “we”, “us”).
By using this Website or booking a place on the Programme, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use this Website or book a place.
The Human Tools Experience is a five-day in-person psychoeducation programme. It is not therapy, counselling, medical treatment, or clinical intervention. See our Disclaimer for further detail on what the Programme is and is not.
The Programme runs for five consecutive days at a venue confirmed in your booking communication. Daily sessions run for approximately nine hours. All meals during programme days are included.
3.1 By submitting a booking form and making payment, you are entering into a binding agreement with Human Tools for a place on the specified cohort.
3.2 The Programme fee is R18,000 per person on the payment plan, or R15,000 paid in full (a R3,000 saving). The payment plan totals R18,000 across six instalments of R3,000: a R3,000 deposit on booking, R3,000 fourteen days before the Programme commences, and R3,000 per month for four months thereafter by debit order. The applicable fee and payment schedule will be confirmed in writing at the time of booking. International clients are billed in USD — $1,500 paid in full or $1,800 on the equivalent six-instalment plan.
3.2.1 Where you elect the payment plan, you will sign a separate debit order authorisation for the four monthly instalments that follow the live five-day component. Failure of two consecutive debit orders may result in suspension of access to the post-Programme integration components and referral of the outstanding balance for collection.
3.3 Your place is confirmed only upon receipt of full payment (where applicable) and a written confirmation from Human Tools.
3.4 If you book via our website (an electronic transaction), you may have a 7-day cooling-off period under the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act 25 of 2002, during which you may cancel for any reason and receive a full refund. See our Refund Policy for full details.
Full details of our cancellation and refund terms are set out in our Refund & Cancellation Policy. Key points:
5.1 You agree to attend all five days in full and participate in the exercises and group activities.
