The CLIENT shall have the right to cancel or withdraw from the contract before the start of the course, counting from the date of acceptance of these Conditions, by sending an e-mail to info@cifalmadrid.org, indicating their first name and surname, the contract date and the reasons for cancellation.

The cancellation or withdrawal may not be made after the start of the training course or the service provision.

In the case of requesting a cancellation or withdrawal, the amounts paid shall be reimbursed within a maximum of 14 calendar days from the date on which the CLIENT notifies their decision to withdraw from the contract, through means chosen by the CLIENT when making the payment, unless there is prior agreement to the contrary.
The following form may be used to exercise the right to withdrawal. Download the document here.

RACE will make the reimbursement using the same method of payment used by the Client for the initial transaction, and shall not be subject to any expense as a result of this reimbursement procedure.
In accordance with the provisions of article 103 of Legislative Royal Decree 1/2007 of 16 November, approving the codified text of the General Law on the Defence of Consumers and Users and other complementary legislation, the right of withdrawal is not applicable to:
a) The provision of services, once the service has been performed in full, when the performance has begun, with the prior and express consent of the consumer and user, and with the recognition on the latter’s part that they are aware that once the contract has been fully performed by RACE, the right to withdrawal has been lost.

4.7. Price and Form of Payment

All the prices indicated on the website are final prices, and include all taxes, duties and applicable charges.
Payment must be made by bank card through the payment gateway provided by RACE.
Payment by VISA and MasterCard is through a secure system of Internet payment. The Secure Electronic Transaction system is based on the issuer of the card (bank or savings bank) identifying the card holder before authorising Internet payment. RACE is a member of this security protocol, so that once the product to be bought has been selected and the card number entered, the Issuer’s window opens requesting identification, displaying one of the following icons:
The card data and password are protected by this security system once they are entered. When the identification has been completed, the Issuer notifies RACE that the purchase is being made by the card holder, so that the latter can complete the process. If the identification has not been satisfactory, the Issuer notifies this to RACE, so that it can proceed accordingly.

This window is outside the control of RACE. The Issuer is liable for any incident that may arise in it, and Users must contact the Issuer should any such incident arise.
No methods of payment other than those offered on the website will be accepted.

4.8. Other pre-contractual information

  • The CLIENT will be guided in the process to be followed to enter into the contract, and in the identification and correction of the data provided for executing the contract through the forms created for this purpose.
  • The CLIENT accepts these Conditions, which may be downloaded and copied when the contract is executed, so the company will not store the electronic contract. In any case, these Conditions will always be accessible via the website.
  • The contract is executed in Spanish, in accordance with these Conditions.
  • Any offers shall be valid to the extent specified in each case on the website.
  • The contract and any offers will be limited to the number of accesses available according to the conditions of the agreement.
  • The CLIENT may access the essential characteristics of the service through its description on the website.

4.9. Severability

If any clause included in these Conditions is declared fully or partially void or unenforceable, this shall only affect the clause or part of it that is void or unenforceable and the Conditions shall remain valid in all other cases, where possible.
