Registration must always be made in writing via the digital application form on the Futuregames website. Registration is followed by a confirmation email from Futuregames. Keep in mind that the registration is binding, with the exceptions stipulated in the sections regarding Rights of withdrawal below.
If the purchaser of the services is a legal entity, the name of the person that shall complete the course (the “Student”) shall be specified.

The time for the start of the course is stated in the information supplied by Futuregames. Three weeks before the start of the course, the purchaser will receive an invoice. The course fee is stated in the application form as well as in the invoice. Full payment must be received by Futuregames within ten days after the purchaser has received the invoice, if nothing else has been agreed upon. The invoice shall be deemed received by the purchaser if sent by email, on the time stated at the sender’s e-mail, provided it has been successfully transmitted.
The course fee is the total price including VAT. The VAT will be specified in the invoice. If a reminder of payment is needed, Futuregames is entitled to charge a reminder fee and penalty interest according to the Interest Act (1975:635).
The standard timeframes for invoicing and payment described above do not apply to such late registrations that have been made less than three weeks before the course start. In such cases, the purchaser will receive an invoice within ten days from the date of registration, after which full payment must be received by Futuregames within ten days after the purchaser has received the invoice, if nothing else has been agreed upon.

Study materials, technology and equipment
The online courses will be provided through a digital platform, such as Teams or similar. The purchaser/student must have its own digital devices and the necessary software installed to be able to attend the digital course.
Rights of withdrawal (consumers)
If the purchaser is a private individual (i.e. a consumer) and not a legal entity, the purchaser has a 14-day right of withdrawal from the date on which the agreement was entered into, in accordance with the Swedish Act on Distance Contracts and Off-Premises Contracts (SFS 2005:59). If the purchaser wishes to exercise their right of withdrawal, they must notify us in writing before the withdrawal period expires by completing and sending the attached withdrawal form to preparatory@futuregames.se.
If the course begins during the withdrawal period, we will request special consent from the purchaser in order for the course to begin during the withdrawal period. The purchaser understands that he/she will be obliged to repay a proportional share of the agreed price once such consent has been given and the course has commenced.
For corporate orders, no right of withdrawal applies after the agreement has been entered into. In the event that the right of withdrawal does not apply, either because the withdrawal period has expired or because the right of withdrawal is otherwise not applicable, the purchaser undertakes to pay the full tuition fee.
General rights of withdrawal (all)
In addition to the right of withdrawal for consumers above, the following shall apply for all purchasers.
The purchaser is entitled to withdraw the purchase of the course by giving notice to Futuregames, at the latest four weeks before the start of the course. If so, the purchaser shall be entitled to a refund of 50 per cent the course fee.
If the course is cancelled due to any permanent obstacle, such as long-term illness or serious injury, which could not have been foreseen, the full course fee, or if the course has already started an amount corresponding to the remaining part of the course, will be refunded with a deduction of an administrative fee of 20 per cent of the course fee. The purchaser shall cancel the course in writing and attach medical certificate or similar evidencing the permanent obstacle.
Cancelled course or changed times
Futuregames may cancel a course for several reasons. For instance, if there are few applicants or other obstacles occur, it may be impossible for Futuregames to offer the course. When a course is cancelled the purchaser will be informed by Futuregames at least one week before the start of the course. If Futuregames is forced to cancel a course before the start, the purchaser always has the right to recover the full course fee or, if possible, participate in the next-coming course instead. The same shall apply if Futuregames is forced to change the timing of the course sessions in a way that means that the purchaser cannot participate in the course. Refunds will be made as soon as possible and no later than 10 working days after notification of the change.
Intellectual Property Rights
Any and all course materials, including all intellectual property rights of such materials, provided by Futuregames during the courses are, and remain, the sole property of Futuregames, whether adapted, written for or customized for the purchaser or not.
The Purchaser shall not be entitled to give any other person access to the online course, other than the Student stated in the application form.
