Terms & Conditions

Last updated: May 2026

1. About These Terms

These terms apply to lessons booked with Mahjong Standard: private and group American mahjong lessons held in your home, and public open sessions you register to join. By booking with us, you agree to these terms. If anything here is unclear, please ask before you book; we are always happy to talk it through.

2. Bookings & Inquiries

Private and group lessons are booked online or by inquiry and are held in your own home; a booking is confirmed once we have agreed the date, group size and location with you. Public open sessions are booked by registering for a scheduled date, with the venue confirmed by email. Places are limited and offered on a first-come basis.

3. Payment

Lesson prices are shown on our lessons page and confirmed when you book. You'll see how to pay when you book.

4. Changes & Cancellations

We understand that things happen and plans can change, and we don't want you to miss out, so we encourage rescheduling over cancellation.

If you do need to cancel a lesson or event participation:

  • Full refund if you cancel more than 72 hours out.
  • No refund if cancelling less than 72 hours out.

We may occasionally need to reschedule a session or event. If we do, we will offer you an alternative date or a full refund of any amount paid for that booking.

5. What We Bring

Every lesson includes all the equipment needed to play: tiles, mats, racks, tile grabbers, the official card and a beginner guide. For a lesson in your home, this is brought to you and taken away again afterwards, and you provide a suitable table, seating, and the people learning; at a public open session, everything is set up for you. The equipment remains ours; the beginner guide is yours to keep.

6. At the Table

Our tables are warm, welcoming, and open to all. We ask everyone to treat your host and fellow players with kindness and respect. We reserve the right to end a lesson early if anyone's behavior spoils it for others, without refund.

7. Liability

We take care to run our sessions and events well, but to the extent permitted by law we are not liable for loss or damage to personal belongings, or for indirect or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

8. Intellectual Property

The Mahjong Standard name, branding, written content, and imagery on this website are our property and may not be reproduced without permission.

9. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The current version will always be posted on this page with a revised date. For questions, please get in touch via our contact form.
