Upon receipt of the subscription form (and subject to receipt of an official purchase order number at time of booking), CL:AIRE will issue an invoice which can be paid by BACS transfer, cheque and debit/credit card. Full payment is required within 30 days of invoice. Subscription fees are revised annually and will be notified to members in writing. The subscription rates are calculated by the number of individuals, either working within a contaminated land department, or in direct contact with contaminated land issues.

New members have 7 days to cancel their subscription and receive a full refund (on the basis that no documents have been downloaded from the Members area of the CL:AIRE website). Any requests for cancellation after this period will not entitle the member to a refund for the unused membership. All cancellations must be made in writing by the account holder or bill payer only; we cannot accept cancellations from third parties for security reasons. Please send your cancellation notice to: CL:AIRE, 7th Floor, 1 Great Cumberland Place, London, W1H 7AL.

No refund will be provided where the user is in breach of the Terms and Conditions of this website and the Membership service as set out in Section 5 above.
