The login sections states this very clearly during the first steps of registration. It is yours for life at the point of registration. Scuba Classes are generally divided into three parts; Class Academics, Pool Practice, and Ocean Dives. The PADI online elearner program allows you to complete the Class Academics portion. Additional fees apply. Elearner students will still need to participate in the Pool Practice and the Ocean dives. The benefit of elearning is that you can complete the academics at your own pace.

These expenses may include such things as gasoline to and from store, Monterey and pool, hotel reservations/cancellations, food and parking. Students involved in a class cancellation will receive priority rescheduling for the next available class with no makeup fees.

TRANSPORTATION
Transporting wet diving equipment can cause damage to stereo equipment, paper documents and anything that may have an adverse reaction to fresh or salt water. Scuba Fusion and its Instructors are not liable for any damage or losses incurred due to equipment transportation and storage during or after the diving course.

EQUIPMENT LOSSES
Scuba Fusion Dive Center, its staff, assistants, Instructors and affiliate instructors are not liable for any diving equipment rented or personally owned that has become damaged, lost or stolen while participating in any courses offered by the Scuba Fusion Dive Center, its staff, assistants, Instructors and affiliate instructors.

PERSONAL LOSSES
Scuba Fusion Dive Center, its staff, assistants, Instructors and affiliate instructors are not liable for any personal items damaged, lost or stolen while participating in any courses offered by the Scuba Fusion Dive Center, its staff, assistants, Instructors and affiliate instructors.

GUEST DIVERS
We appreciate it when a guest offers to assist or provide moral support to a student during the Open Water Course. However, guest divers are not welcome to participate or assist in any part of the PADI Open Water Diver Course. It is not recommended for certified divers to dive with students during training dives for myriad reasons. One reason is that guests are not licensed or insured to teach the PADI Open Water Course. By assisting they place themselves and the instructor in an unfavorable litigious position. The Scuba Fusion Dive Center AND its instructors reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.

ABSENCES AND MAKEUP FEES
A schedule is agreed upon between student and school before classes begin. Scuba Fusion and its instructors are obligated to meeting said schedule. However, if a student is absent from a class session, pool dive or ocean dive for whatever reason, Scuba Fusion cannot and will not be responsible for any makeup fees that may be incurred. Many diving classes are sequential. You can’t go to the ocean without first completing all of the pool sessions. Nor can Scuba Fusion or its Instructors guarantee rescheduling. Some courses are seasonal while others run once a year. We understand people are busy and that finding the time to reschedule may be difficult but If you are planning on completing a course that centers around life and death situations before that big trip to Fiji next week – you will have to show up to class or forfeit your training fees..

WE PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY
We use security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of data used by our system.

SHARING AND USAGE
We will never share, sell, or rent individual personal information with anyone without your advance permission or unless ordered by a court of law.
