Terms of Service

Terms of Service - SEO-DAY

§ 1 Scope of Application

These Terms and Conditions (T&C) apply to the use of the website of SEO-DAY GmbH as well as to all contracts for participation in events conducted by SEO-DAY GmbH.

By using the website or booking an event, you agree to these terms. Deviating, conflicting or supplementary T&C of the customer do not become part of the contract, unless their validity is expressly agreed to in writing.

§ 2 Subject Matter and Services

SEO-DAY GmbH organizes professional conferences and events in the field of SEO, Digital Marketing and related topics.

The services include in particular:

  • Conducting professional presentations and presentations
  • Provision of event venues and technical equipment
  • Organization of networking opportunities
  • Provision of catering and beverages (if included in the ticket price)

The exact services result from the respective event description and the booked ticket. Changes in the program schedule are reserved, insofar as these are reasonable for the participant and do not affect the overall purpose of the event.

§ 3 Contract Conclusion and Booking

The booking of an event takes place via the website or in another way announced by the organizer.

By sending the booking, the participant makes a binding offer to conclude a participation contract. The contract comes into effect through the written confirmation of the booking by SEO-DAY GmbH.

SEO-DAY GmbH reserves the right to reject bookings without giving reasons. In this case, the amount already paid will be refunded immediately.

§ 4 Prices and Payment Terms

All prices are in euros and include the statutory value-added tax, unless otherwise stated.

Payment of the participation fee is due immediately after invoicing, unless another payment period has been agreed.

In case of late payment, default interest of 9 percentage points above the base rate will be charged. The assertion of higher damages remains reserved.

The participant can only offset with undisputed or legally established claims.

§ 5 Cancellation and Withdrawal

The participant can withdraw from participation at any time. The receipt of the withdrawal declaration at SEO-DAY GmbH is decisive.

In case of withdrawal up to 30 days before the start of the event, 50% of the participation fee will be retained as cancellation fee. In case of withdrawal up to 14 days before the start of the event, 75% of the participation fee will be retained as cancellation fee. In case of withdrawal less than 14 days before the start of the event or in case of non-appearance, the full participation fee is due.

The participant can name a substitute participant who participates in the event in his place. In this case, no cancellation fees will be charged.

SEO-DAY GmbH reserves the right to cancel events for important reasons (e.g. force majeure, illness of the speaker, too few participants). In this case, the participation fee already paid will be refunded in full. No further claims exist.

§ 6 Disclaimer

SEO-DAY GmbH is liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence as well as according to the Product Liability Act.

In case of slight negligence, SEO-DAY GmbH is only liable in case of violation of an essential contractual obligation, the fulfillment of which enables the proper execution of the contract in the first place and on which the participant may regularly rely (cardinal obligation). In this case, liability is limited to the foreseeable, typically occurring damage.

The above liability limitations do not apply in case of violation of life, body or health. Liability according to the Product Liability Act remains unaffected.

SEO-DAY GmbH assumes no liability for the content of the presentations and presentations of the speakers. The speakers are responsible for their content themselves.

§ 7 Data Protection

SEO-DAY GmbH collects and processes personal data in the context of event organization and execution.

Detailed information about the type, scope and purpose of data processing can be found in our Privacy Policy.

§ 9 Changes to the T&C

SEO-DAY GmbH reserves the right to change these T&C at any time. Changes will be published on the website.

For contracts already concluded, the T&C in the version valid at the time of contract conclusion apply, unless the participant expressly agrees to the changed T&C.

§ 10 Final Provisions

German law applies, excluding the UN Sales Law and the EC Sales Law.

Place of performance and jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contractual relationship is, insofar as the participant is a merchant, legal entity under public law or public-law special fund, the registered office of SEO-DAY GmbH in Leverkusen.

Should individual provisions of these T&C be invalid or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid one that comes closest to the economic purpose of the invalid provision.

No oral side agreements exist. Changes and additions to these T&C require written form. This also applies to the cancellation of this written form clause.

Status: December 2024
