Terms of service

Human First is operated by Michele Spiezia and Films by Francesco LLC. These terms and conditions form the agreement between you and Human First. By booking a workshop, event, speaking engagement or any other service, you sign into this agreement and agree to abide and be bound by these terms and conditions. If you have any questions or concerns about this agreement, please contact hello@humanfirst.co.


The Basics

  • In order to get the most out of the workshop, you should ensure that you arrive on time and attend the entire session. If you are unable to attend you must notify us by email at hello@humanfirst.co. Latecomers are admitted only at the discretion of the workshop leader. You are not entitled to a refund if, because of your lateness, you miss all or a portion of the workshop.
  • If behavior or conduct is deemed unacceptable or inappropriate, students will be asked to leave the workshop. No refund of fees will be made.
  • Human First is entitled to change the venue or make changes to the structure of the workshop. In the unlikely event that changes are made there will be notice made to all attendees as soon as possible.
  • Human First may cancel a workshop at any time prior to commencement. In the unlikely event that we cancel a workshop we will notify you as soon as possible and any fees or deposits received from you will be refunded. Please note Human First will not refund travel or accommodation costs for cancelled courses.
  • Elements of each workshop may be subject to change without notice. No refunds will be given in the event of any such changes although we will endeavor to notify you, if possible, of the changes.
  • Parents agree to pay for property damage caused directly, or indirectly, as a result of negligent action of their child.
  • All of your child's personal belongings are their own responsibility, unless loss or damage is proven to be due to our negligence. While we maintain a safe and secure environment, students are responsible for their smartphones, tablets and laptops as well as any valuables such as money or keys.
