IMPORTANT NOTE: Submitting a manuscript does not guarantee that you will receive a review. However, we will endeavour to provide a review to all those who apply and send their work by the deadline. Refunds for 1-1s will be given in the event of you paying for, but subsequently not being offered a review. Refunds for 1-1s cannot be given if you pay for, but subsequently choose not to submit a manuscript by the deadline. If you pay for a review but find you can no longer attend the conference, refunds can only be given in rare and extenuating circumstances – see the FAQs page for more details. |
