VIRTUAL CLASS POLICIES:
CANCELLATION POLICY: All virtual class sales are final. No refunds or credits are available. If a class is canceled by Mrs. Dornberg's or is unable to proceed for technical or any other circumstance, a full refund will be issued.

Mrs. Dornberg’s Culinary Experience reserves the right to cancel or modify classes and menus.

CLASS ACCESS: All sessions will be conducted via Zoom. You will have the opportunity to watch Mrs. Dornberg in action and ask questions through chat (with demonstration sessions) or live (with cook-along sessions) as we go along. You will be provided via email with a zoom link, notes, and recipes at registration. If you do not receive it within 24 hours of the class start, please contact us. (Also, check your spam and promotion folders!) Mrs. Dornberg's is not responsible for undeliverable or unreceived emails.

NOTE: You will not need to register for a ZOOM account to join. Simply click to “Join the Meeting” link in the email sent prior to class. You will be prompted to download and install the Zoom app so we recommend doing this prior to class. Once downloaded, open the Zoom program you will need to give Zoom access to your computer/phone microphone and camera. For demonstration classes, your microphone and video will be muted/turned off.

It is YOUR responsibility to check your connection and tech set-up PRIOR to class start. We are not able to assist with technical issues once the class starts. If you are having difficulty, please contact Mrs. Dornberg PRIOR to the class.

Virtual doors open 15 minutes prior to class start and will close once class starts, so make sure you arrive on time! During this pre-class time, Mrs. Dornberg is available to answer any general cooking-related questions you may have!

Please note, registration is per screen. DO NOT SHARE THE LINK. You will need to provide the customer name or confirmation code when joining the class.
