Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: August, 2026

1. About these terms

2. Orders and payment

By completing checkout, you submit a binding order and confirm that the information supplied is correct. The agreement is concluded when PWG sends a confirmation or activates the membership.

 

Prices are shown in Swiss francs and include applicable taxes, if any. Payment is due at checkout using the offered payment methods. Payments are processed by Stripe and may also be subject to Stripe's terms.

3. Membership

4. Events, cancellations, and refunds

Event places may be limited. A registration is confirmed once PWG issues confirmation and, where required, receives payment. Tickets are generally non-refundable but may be transferred to another person. Any event-specific cancellation, refund, or ticket-transfer conditions displayed before purchase form part of the agreement.

​

PWG may reasonably change a speaker, programme, time, format, or venue. To the extent permitted by law, PWG is not responsible for travel, accommodation, childcare, loss of earnings, or other indirect costs resulting from a change or cancellation.

5. Conduct

PWG aims to provide a professional, respectful, and inclusive environment. Harassment,

discrimination, intimidation, unlawful behaviour, aggressive sales activity, or misuse of another

person's contact information is not permitted.

 

Member-directory or attendee information may not be scraped, sold, added to bulk mailing lists, or used for unsolicited mass communications. PWG may refuse admission or remove a participant where reasonably necessary for safety or serious misconduct.

6. Photographs and recordings

PWG may photograph or record events as explained in the Privacy Policy. Participants who do not wish to appear should inform the organiser or photographer.

 

Commercial recording, livestreaming, or systematic recording of presentations requires prior

permission from PWG and the relevant speaker.

7. Content and intellectual property

Website and event content is provided for general information and professional development. It is not individual legal, medical, financial, tax, or other professional advice. PWG does not guarantee any particular result from membership, networking, or event participation.

 

Unless otherwise stated, PWG or the relevant rights holder owns the website, branding, event materials, photographs, and recordings. They may not be reproduced or used commercially without permission.

8. Liability

PWG is liable in accordance with Swiss law. To the extent legally permitted, PWG excludes liability for slight negligence and indirect or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded, including liability for intent or gross negligence.

 

Participants are responsible for their personal belongings and for deciding whether an event activity is suitable for them.

9. Circumstances beyond PWG's control

PWG is not responsible for delays, changes, or cancellations caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, such as extreme weather, venue closure, transport disruption, public-authority measures, or supplier failure. If such circumstances materially affect an event, the options set out in Section 4 apply. PWG is not responsible for participants' related costs, such as travel or accommodation.

10. Privacy

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by Swiss law. The courts at PWG's registered seat have jurisdiction, subject to any mandatory jurisdiction available under applicable law.

​

If one provision is invalid, the remaining provisions continue to apply.
