APPLICATION AND ACCEPTANCE

All participation in PADDOCK events is subject to acceptance. Submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance. The PADDOCK reserves the right to:

  • Refuse attendance where an individual does not meet the requirements of a particular event; and

  • Take any other reasonable action necessary to protect the PADDOCK community, its members or the integrity of its events.

Acceptance into the PADDOCK community does not guarantee access to every event.

ONE-TIME APPLICATION

The PADDOCK generally operates through a one-time application process. Once accepted, you may be added to the private the PADDOCK Club WhatsApp group, where upcoming events and experiences may be shared. Members may then RSVP for events they wish to attend, subject to availability and any event-specific requirements.

  • Provide false or misleading information;

  • Misrepresent your business, position or professional background;

  • Impersonate another person or business; or

  • Use false credentials to gain access to the community or an event.

The PADDOCK may take appropriate action if information provided is found to be materially false or misleading.

The PADDOCK may identify potential connections between members based on information provided through applications, events or other interactions. Where an introduction would involve sharing a member's contact information, permission must be obtained from both parties before their contact details are shared.

  • A client;

  • A sale;

  • A partnership;

  • An investment;

  • Follow reasonable instructions provided by PADDOCK organisers, instructors, coaches, venues or activity providers;

  • Follow applicable safety rules;

  • Act responsibly during activities;

  • Inform the PADDOCK of any relevant information that may reasonably affect your safe participation; and

  • Stop participating if you believe continuing may put yourself or another person at risk.

The PADDOCK may refuse or stop your participation in an activity if we reasonably believe that your participation presents a safety concern or breaches applicable rules.

PARTICIPATION AT YOUR OWN RISK

You acknowledge that participation in certain PADDOCK events and activities may involve inherent risks, including physical activity, sports, outdoor activities, travel, interaction with other people or use of third-party facilities and equipment. You voluntarily participate in such activities and assume responsibility for assessing whether you are suitable to participate. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable Malaysian law.

PERSONAL BELONGINGS

You are responsible for your own personal belongings while attending PADDOCK events. The PADDOCK is not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged personal belongings, except to the extent that such liability cannot legally be excluded.

THIRD-PARTY VENUES AND PROVIDERS

Some PADDOCK events may take place at or involve third-party venues, coaches, trainers, instructors, restaurants, activity providers, suppliers or other service providers. The PADDOCK is not responsible for the acts, omissions, services or facilities of independent third parties, except to the extent required by applicable law. You may also be subject to the terms, rules and requirements of the relevant venue or service provider.

EVENT REQUIREMENTS

Individual events may have specific requirements relating to:

  • Age;

  • Fitness;

  • Dress code;

  • Capacity;

  • Payment;

  • Food or dietary requirements;

You must meet the requirements specified for the event you are attending. The PADDOCK may refuse attendance where you do not meet an event's requirements.

EVENT CAPACITY

Event places are subject to availability. Making an application or being accepted into the PADDOCK community does not guarantee a place at a particular event. Where an event is full, the PADDOCK may refuse additional registrations even if an individual has previously been accepted into the community.

PAYMENTS

Payment requirements will be stated for each event. The PADDOCK currently accepts payment through:

  • Bank transfer; and

  • QR payment.

We do not accept cash or other payment methods unless expressly stated for a particular event. Where applicable, payment must be completed at least 24 hours before the event unless otherwise stated. A place at an event is not confirmed until the required payment has been received and verified by the PADDOCK. All payments are subject to the the PADDOCK Refund & Cancellation Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

REFUNDS AND CANCELLATIONS

All refunds and cancellations are governed by the PADDOCK Refund & Cancellation Policy. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable event terms, payments are non-refundable. By making a payment, you acknowledge and agree to the applicable Refund & Cancellation Policy.

WHATSAPP COMMUNITY

Accepted members may be added to the private the PADDOCK Club WhatsApp group. The group is intended for community communication and event-related purposes. You must not use the group to:

  • Spam members;

  • Send unsolicited mass promotional messages;

  • Post inappropriate, offensive or illegal content;

  • Promote MLMs, pyramid schemes, scams or prohibited businesses;

  • Share another member's personal information without permission;

  • Add individuals who have not been accepted into the PADDOCK;

  • Repeatedly promote your business without appropriate context or permission; or

  • Engage in behaviour that disrupts the community.

Being in the PADDOCK WhatsApp group does not automatically give you permission to privately message other members for promotional or business purposes. You must not cold-DM or directly solicit a member whom you have not met in person through the PADDOCK without their permission. If you have met another member in person, any subsequent communication must still be respectful and must not involve spam, aggressive selling or repeated unwanted solicitation. Promotional or business-related posts in the PADDOCK Club WhatsApp group may require permission from the PADDOCK before being posted. The PADDOCK reserves the right to remove posts or restrict posting privileges where necessary. The PADDOCK may remove a member from the WhatsApp group for violating these rules or these Terms.

PADDOCK events may be photographed or recorded. By attending an event, you acknowledge and agree that you may appear in photographs, videos or other recordings. The PADDOCK may use such content for:

  • Its website;

  • Instagram;

  • LinkedIn;

  • Community communications;

  • Event documentation; and

  • Marketing and promotional purposes.
