Risk management
When carrying out activities involving the use of firearms, there is always a certain risk involved. We have extensive experience in shooting training and managing risky activities.
Prior to activity, we will conduct a risk analysis and develop a list of measures.
We do not conduct out any activity that involves unnecessary high risk, considering participants' standpoint, instructors' competence, climatic or environmental factors.
 
Safety is the responsibility of the individual. Parallax will facilitate the safe execution of the activity but will not take responsibility for individual errors and judgements.
 
The shooter is responsible for the projectile's flight until it either stops safely or reaches terminal velocity. 
 
As a participant in one of our courses, before the activity starts, the following will be reviewed:
- Parallax safety instructions for handling weapons
- Risk analysis with measures list
- Shooting range safety instructions
 
All our activities will include qualified first aid personnel and equipment for lifesaving first aid.
  
Terms and Conditions for Course Registration

 
1. Contract Formation
 By registering for a course, activity, training  either by registering on Parallax CTS courses, or by entering a verbal and /or written contract for training, a binding agreement is entered into between Parallax Combat Training Solutions and the participant (or the participant’s employer).

 For all government agencies  courses and training a cancellation deadline of six (6) weeks prior to the course start date applies.
Cancellations received less than six weeks before the course start will result in full invoicing of the course fee. 

2. Legal Basis

 These terms are governed by Norwegian law and relevant European regulations:

The Norwegian Contracts Act (Act of 31 May 1918, No. 4), §§ 1 and 36

Under Norwegian law, agreements entered into are binding for both parties unless special circumstances render them unreasonable. Cancellation clauses are widely accepted and enforceable between professional parties.

​

The Norwegian Sale of Goods Act (Act of 13 May 1988, No. 27), §§ 39 and 52 (applied analogously)

​

If the purchaser fails to meet payment obligations, the seller may demand performance. Cancellation after the contractual deadline does not release the purchaser from payment if the seller has already incurred costs.

Rome I Regulation (EC No. 593/2008)

​

The contract is governed by Norwegian law, as the characteristic performance is carried out in Norway.

Brussels I Regulation (EU No. 1215/2012)

​

Any dispute shall be brought before Norwegian courts, where the service was to be provided.

The Norwegian Interest on Overdue Payments Act (Act of 17 December 1976, No. 100)

​

In the event of late payment, statutory interest will accrue from the due date, along with a fixed compensation fee, in accordance with EU Directive 2011/7/EU.

3. Practical and Financial Conditions
 Cancellations received after the six-week deadline cannot be accepted without full payment.
By that time, Parallax Combat Training Solutions  will already have incurred costs related to venue rental, instructors, course materials, and administrative preparations. It is therefore not possible to replace participants or reduce expenses.
 
Please note that Parallax CTS is a small enterprise for which course activities constitute a substantial part of its operations. We are contractually bound to our employees and subcontractors and must fulfil these obligations. Non-compliance would directly jeopardize our ability to maintain operations and safeguard employment.

4. Course Fee and Payment
 In the event of late payment, statutory interest will accrue from the due date in accordance with the Norwegian Interest on Overdue Payments Act, along with the right to claim a fixed compensation fee for recovery costs.
 
5. Cancellation or relegation of the course
 If Parallax has to cancel a course, the cost of the course will be fully reimbursed to the customer.
 
If the customer has to leave the course for various reasons, or is denied further training, then the course cost is also not refunded.
