Terms of Service

§ 1 Scope of Application

These Terms of Service 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 and conditions. Conflicting or supplementary terms and conditions of the customer shall not become part of the contract, unless their applicability 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 rooms 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 they are reasonable for the participant and do not affect the overall purpose of the event.

§ 3 Contract Conclusion and Booking

Booking of an event is made via the website or in another manner announced by the organizer.

By submitting the booking, the participant makes a binding offer to conclude a participation contract. The contract is concluded by 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 quoted in euros and include the statutory value-added tax, unless otherwise stated.

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

In case of late payment, default interest at a rate of 9 percentage points above the base rate is calculated. The assertion of higher damages remains reserved.

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

§ 5 Cancellation and Withdrawal

The participant may withdraw from participation at any time. The receipt of the withdrawal notice by 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 no-show, the full participation fee is due.

The participant may name a substitute participant who will participate 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, insufficient number of participants). In this case, the participation fee already paid will be refunded in full. No further claims exist.

§ 6 Disclaimer

SEO-DAY GmbH is fully liable for intent and gross negligence as well as in accordance with 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 makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on the compliance with 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 injury to life, body or health. Liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected.

SEO-DAY GmbH assumes no liability for the content of presentations and presentations by 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 Terms and Conditions

SEO-DAY GmbH reserves the right to change these terms and conditions at any time. Changes will be published on the website.

For contracts already concluded, the terms and conditions in the version valid at the time of contract conclusion apply, unless the participant expressly agrees to the changed terms and conditions.

§ 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 special fund under public law, the registered office of SEO-DAY GmbH in Leverkusen.

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

No oral side agreements exist. Changes and additions to these terms and conditions require written form. This also applies to the waiver of this written form clause.

Status: December 2024
These terms and conditions may be changed at any time without prior notice. The current version is available on this page.
