CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY
Participant-Initiated Cancellations
All payments are NON-REFUNDABLE once submitted. This includes the $500 deposit and all subsequent payments. Participant cancellations—regardless of reason—do not entitle you to a refund.
Participants are strongly advised to purchase travel insurance with "cancel for any reason" (CFAR) coverage to protect their investment. Insurance must be purchased within 20 days of the initial $1000 deposit payment to be eligible for CFAR benefits. CIFT does not issue refunds; all refund claims must be directed to your insurance provider.

CIFT-Initiated Cancellations or Changes
CIFT reserves the right to cancel, reschedule, or materially modify the retreat at any time due to: (i) unsafe conditions (including but not limited to political instability, civil unrest, natural disasters, disease outbreaks, security threats, or severe weather); (ii) insufficient enrollment; or (iii) force majeure events beyond CIFT's control.
In the event of CIFT-initiated cancellation or rescheduling, participant's sole remedies are:
Option 1: Reschedule participation for a future CIFT retreat at no additional cost (subject to availability).
Option 2: Forfeit all payments with no refund (except to the extent covered by purchased travel insurance)
CIFT assumes no liability for any losses, damages, or consequential expenses arising from cancellation, including but not limited to: non-refundable airline tickets, hotel reservations, time off work, emotional distress, or loss of income. Your insurance policy is your sole remedy for such losses.
TRAVEL INSURANCE
Travel insurance is strongly recommended and should be purchased within 20 days of your initial payment to be eligible for "cancel for any reason" coverage.
