8. Intellectual Property
All materials provided as part of Whimbrel programs — including workbooks, calculator guides, and reference documents — remain the intellectual property of Whimbrel. Participants are granted a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use these materials for their own reference. Reproduction, distribution, or sale of materials is prohibited without written consent.
9. Disclaimers
Whimbrel's programs are educational only. We make no representation that the content of any program will lead to any specific financial outcome. Participants remain solely responsible for their financial decisions. Information presented in sessions reflects our understanding of Thai financial structures and regulations as at the date of delivery; it should not be relied upon as current legal or tax advice.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Thai law, Whimbrel's liability for any claim arising from our services is limited to the fees paid for the relevant program. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or incidental losses including loss of profit or loss of opportunity.
11. Confidentiality
Whimbrel treats personal financial information shared in sessions as confidential. We will not disclose session content to third parties except where required by law. Participants should note that sessions involving more than one participant mean that information shared may be heard by other attendees.
12. Termination
Whimbrel reserves the right to terminate a participant's enrolment with immediate effect if the participant behaves in a manner that is disruptive, disrespectful, or contrary to these Terms. In such cases, a partial refund for uncompleted sessions will be assessed at Whimbrel's discretion.
13. Dispute Resolution
In the event of a dispute, both parties agree to first attempt resolution through direct communication. If that fails, disputes will be referred to mediation before any formal legal proceedings. These Terms are governed by the laws of Thailand, and the courts of Bangkok shall have jurisdiction.
14. General Provisions
- Entire agreement: These Terms constitute the entire agreement between the participant and Whimbrel in relation to our services
- Severability: If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect
- Waiver: Failure to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver of that provision
- Assignment: Participants may not assign their enrolment without prior written consent
