3. Information and Website Content

The information published on the website is provided primarily to inform users about EBAN, its activities, programmes, initiatives and opportunities for engagement.

Although EBAN endeavours to ensure that information published on the website is accurate and current, we do not guarantee that all information will always be complete, accurate, current or free from errors or omissions.

Information on the website should not be regarded as a guarantee that any particular programme, project, scholarship, assistance, event or other opportunity will be available at all times.

EBAN reserves the right to amend, update, suspend or discontinue any programme, initiative, service, event or opportunity described on the website without prior notice.

4. Applications and Participation in EBAN Programmes

From time to time, the website may provide opportunities to apply for or participate in EBAN programmes, including educational, community-development, scholarship, support, volunteering, training or other charitable initiatives.

Submission of an application, registration or expression of interest does not create an entitlement to receive funding, a scholarship, assistance, employment, volunteer placement, admission to a programme or any other benefit from EBAN.

Applications and participation may be subject to eligibility requirements, assessment procedures, available resources, programme criteria and other conditions determined by the Foundation.

EBAN reserves the right to accept, decline or defer applications in accordance with the applicable programme requirements and its organizational policies.

Donations and contributions are subject to any applicable instructions or conditions communicated at the time of the transaction.

EBAN may decline, return or otherwise deal with a donation or contribution where required or permitted by law or where there are reasonable concerns regarding its source, legality or intended purpose.

Where a donation or contribution is designated for a particular programme or purpose, EBAN will endeavour to apply it in accordance with the stated designation, subject to applicable law and the Foundation's policies.

6. Volunteers and Other Participants

Where EBAN invites individuals to volunteer, participate in events, training, community activities or other Foundation initiatives, participation may be subject to applicable eligibility requirements, registration procedures, codes of conduct, safeguarding requirements and other programme-specific conditions.

Participation in a Foundation activity does not, by itself, create an employment relationship between the participant and EBAN.

EBAN reserves the right to refuse, suspend or terminate participation where a person fails to comply with applicable rules or engages in conduct that may harm the Foundation, its beneficiaries, staff, volunteers or other participants.
