Course Disclaimer
Witches Workshop is where your journey into the realms of alternative practices of modern Pagan Witchcraft and energetic Magick begins. As your founder and teacher, I am committed to providing you with a nurturing and empowering learning environment.
Tim Ozpagan Hartridge
Founder and Teacher, WitchesWorkshop
Before you embark on this path with us, it's important to keep a few key points in mind:
The practices and insights shared in our courses are deeply personal and often subject to the interpretation of the practitioner. As you integrate this new knowledge, I encourage you to approach it with discernment, always considering what resonates with you and your unique path.
It's essential to uphold the laws and regulations of your country, adhere to the highest standards of professional ethics, and prioritize the well-being of those you work with. Our courses are intended to inform and educate, and they are not a substitute for professional medical or scientific advice. Remember to respect the boundaries of your role, and when appropriate, guide your clients and students to seek advice from healthcare professionals.
Given the nuanced nature of these fields, the content you receive may reflect the personal perspectives and interpretations of our trainers. While we strive for accuracy and quality in all our teachings, we recognise that errors can occur. If you notice any inconsistencies, please reach out so we can make the necessary updates.
Ultimately, how you choose to apply the knowledge you gain is your responsibility. By following these guidelines, you’ll not only enhance your own professional growth but also foster relationships built on trust and respect with your clients and students.
I wish you a deeply rewarding and enriching learning experience with us at WitchesWorkshop.
Vinum Sabbati,
Tim Ozpagan
You are in control of your personal information.
In May 2018, the European Union strengthened the rules governing the use of individuals whose data are provided to businesses. The rules included such things as, the right to be 'forgotten'. The General Data Protection Regulation (or GDPR) instructed businesses to take greater responsibility for how personal data, such as your name, email or phone number, are used and kept secure.
​
WitchesWorkshop and OTHER magazine already had policies on the protection of personal privacy and data before the introduction of GDPR. The third-party email services we use ensured nothing could happen without an individual's approval; such as your right to unsubscribe or update your email preferences. Our emails provide an easy press-button opt-out and/or self-governance of your preferences.
​
To help provide even greater transparency with how WitchesWorkshop and OTHER magazine do things this page provides both a summary and more detailed explanations. Our policy guidelines below come under advice from a legal team of experts.
​
Because the guide below is not just our ideas and voice but forms a legal agreement, the language can be a bit 'legalese', i.e., formal and technical. The following provides a plain English explanation of how your data may be used by us to communicate with you.
TRANSPARENCY
Here are a couple of typical scenario explanations of what happens when you give us your name and email address.
​
Scenario 1. You fill in an enquiry form on one of our web pages, and you want to know about a workshop that is coming up. The workshop could be an in-person or an online course, or even a witch camp retreat-style event.
What happens next? To provide you with all the relevant information you will receive from us several emails. The first might be a general response and thank you for your interest. A second email will provide details about the workshop, or if that event is full, you'll be informed that you are on a waiting list
​
Your name and email are kept on a secure email server and are never shared. When a new workshop event is offered or details in our magazine are available you will be sent an update and information.
Scenario 2. You ask for more information about any of our workshops or our publications.
​
What happens next? To provide you with all the relevant information you will receive several emails from us. We usually first reply with a ‘thank you’ message and then usually explain what you can expect to receive from us (e.g., how many emails and the frequency of emails).
The next email will tell you about what we do and how you can attend future workshops and courses, any costs, or news about our publications. If there was a free download viable a link to the download page is provided. For any physical print publications, your order will involve you providing a delivery address via the ordering page. This along with your name and email address is held on the secure server by our email provider and not us.
​
Your name, address and email are never shared.

WHAT OUR FANTASTIC MEMBERS SAY
“The ritual was a truly transformational and healing experience... I experienced energy so powerful that it racked my body back and forth like a serpent. Drum rhythms I've never played before, and then I turned into a cat! I feel like I've been to voodoo land and back!”

WitchesWorkshop Cancellation policy
What you should immediately
In the event, you have to cancel you can apply for a refund. It is essential that you provide adequate notice to the organizers. The time required for a refund from a cancelation varies depending what the event is; this 14-days prior to a retreat and 7-days for a workshop.
We have strict guidelines for cancellation if you want a refund. The amount of time expended in setting students up for our events forms a significant part of the work, therefore you must adhere to providing adequate notice. There is much work done behind the scenes preparing to run the workshops and retreats—including prepurchasing of materials, booking venues, and catering.
Please note, there is no guarantee of a refund, but each request is examined on its merit. The more notification time you provide will help to support your application. We allow for a possibility of the transfer of your booking to another workshop time when possible, but this is always at the discretion of the organizer. Retreats are frequently one-off events and so cannot generally be transferred to another retreat event.
Should the organizer cancel the event, an arrangement for a full refund is automatically made. In circumstances where only a postponement of the workshop or retreat is to happen, the student may elect to have their fee transferred to the new date, or they may request a refund.
​
What should you do if you can’t attend?
Please read carefully
For Witch Camp retreat events:
Should you be unable to attend a retreat, you can elect a substitute student or friend to take your place. An additional charge may be applicable; for example, where a non-member is substituted for a member.
A request for a full refund should be made in writing (by email) more than 14 days before the scheduled event. Regrettably, no refunds are offered after that time. If the retreat is cancelled or postponed by the organizers, a full refund or transfer will be made.
Witch Circle and other face-to-face workshops and courses:
Should you be unable to attend a workshop, you can apply for a substitute student or friend to take your place. An additional charge may be applicable, for example, where a non-member is substituting a member's place. Regrettably, no refunds will be made for the value of the course materials already provided at the time of registration.
A full refund will be made for cancellation by a student if made in writing (by email) more than 7 days before the event. Regrettably, no refunds will be made after that time.
What if we cancel an event?
In circumstances where this event has to be cancelled or postponed by the organizer, a full refund will be made to the student. If the student prefers they may elect to have, their payment transferred to the next equivalent workshop.
​
Online workshops and courses
Because you are provided access to the course materials on payment, regrettably no refunds will be made to the value of these items.
