If your new data results in a lower cost price, your account will be credited and you can use that amount for another registration. If your new information leads to a higher registration price, you still have to pay that amount to complete the change.
If you wish to cancel, your account will be credited in accordance with our cancellation conditions. You can then spend this amount on another registration later.
Attention: Please check the conditions of the organizer to find out until when you can cancel and how much your account will be credited !

Attention: If your shoes aren't clean, you can't enter the changing rooms. Think about the other participants who also wants to change clothes in a clean room. Wash your shoes before you enter!
