9. HOW TO CANCEL
Cancellations must be completed by the participant through their MyUTMB account before the deadlines stated in sections 5.1–5.3, using the “CANCEL MY REGISTRATION” function. It is the participant’s sole responsibility to familiarize themselves with the cancellation process and complete it in a timely manner.

Refunds will be issued using the same payment method used during registration. Depending on the payment provider, the refunded amount may take up to 20 business days to appear in the participant’s account.
11. FINALITY OF CANCELLATION
All cancellations are final and irreversible. Once a participant submits a cancellation request through their MyUTMB account, the registration is permanently cancelled and cannot be reinstated, regardless of the reason (including accidental cancellation, misunderstanding, or technical error). The participant is solely responsible for ensuring the accuracy and intention of their cancellation request.
