Description of Services

Payments on this website are made for the following services:

  • Fee for professional lectures
  • Fee for regional conferences

The Society of Construction Law Serbia makes all reasonable efforts to ensure that the description of the services offered is accurate. Descriptions must be clear, truthful, and easily understandable and must not mislead users.


PRICES AND METHOD OF PAYMENT

We accept all validly presented payment cards: MasterCard, Maestro, Visa, and DinaCard.

Payments are processed exclusively in Serbian dinars (RSD).
The Society of Construction Law Serbia is not registered for value added tax (VAT).


CURRENCY CONVERSION STATEMENT

All payments will be made in the local currency of the Republic of Serbia – Serbian dinar (RSD). For informational price display in other currencies, the middle exchange rate of the National Bank of Serbia is used. The amount charged to your payment card will be expressed in your local currency through conversion at the exchange rate applied by card organizations, which cannot be known to the Society at the time of the transaction. As a result of this conversion, there may be a slight difference between the price stated on the website and the amount shown on your payment card statement.


ORDER CONFIRMATION

Your order will not be confirmed (event places not secured, membership not confirmed, etc.) until payment has been successfully received.


SERVICE DELIVERY

The services provided by the Society relate to fees for professional lectures and regional conferences. No physical delivery of goods is performed.

Access to events is confirmed electronically after successful payment, no later than 48 hours before the event takes place. The Society reserves the right to limit the number of participants in accordance with venue capacity.


PROTECTION OF CONFIDENTIAL TRANSACTION DATA

When entering payment card details, confidential information is transmitted over a public network in protected (encrypted) form. At no point are payment card details available to the Society. Payment card data (card number, expiry date, CVC/CVV security code) are never stored, processed, or accessible within the Society’s systems. These data are entered directly into the bank’s system via a secure connection (SSL/TLS).


Equality and Diversity

The Society is committed to encouraging and improving equality and diversity among our membership and eliminating unlawful discrimination from all of the Society’s activities. A copy of the Society’s Equality and Diversity Policy can be found here.


Advertising

The Society’s policy on advertising and other involvement in conferences, seminars and other events and activities is set out in a policy statement which is available here.


COMPLAINTS AND CLAIMS

Should any member, employee, or consultant of the Society, or any speaker, guest, or third party attending and/or working at a Society event wish to make a complaint regarding their own or another person’s treatment, they may do so under the Society’s Complaints Procedure, a copy of which may be found here.

In the event of dissatisfaction with a provided service, users have the right to submit a complaint. Complaints must be submitted via email to office@scl-serbia.org with the subject line “Complaint” and a brief description of the issue.
The Society undertakes to respond within 8 (eight) calendar days of receipt.
The deadline for resolving complaints is 14 (fourteen) calendar days from submission.


REFUNDS

Any amount paid by payment card must, in the event of a refund, be returned to the same payment card.

The Society acknowledges that it may sometimes be necessary to cancel event bookings and request refunds. However, the Society may incur costs as a direct result of a booking being made.

Refund conditions based on the time of cancellation:

  • Cancellation 6 months or more before the event: 10% of the full price will be deducted.
  • Cancellation between 3 and 6 months before the event: 25% of the full price will be deducted.
  • Cancellation between 1 and 3 months before the event: 50% of the full price will be deducted.
  • Cancellation between 10 days and 1 month before the event: 80% of the full price will be deducted.
  • Cancellation within 10 days of the event: no refund will be issued.

If it is possible to resell the place(s), the Society will issue a full refund minus an administrative fee of €20 per place (in dinar equivalent).

Refunds, whether partial or full and regardless of the reason, will be processed exclusively via VISA, EC/MC, Maestro, and DinaCard payment methods. The bank will, at the Society’s request, refund the funds to the cardholder’s account.

Refunds will be issued to the original payment method used for the transaction, in accordance with the rules of card schemes and payment service providers.

The refund processing period is up to 14 (fourteen) calendar days from acceptance of the refund request.
