1. Acceptance of Terms
1.1 By accessing the StartupXchange website,
you declare that you have understood and accept the following terms and conditions.
StartupXchange exclusively signs contracts, which are subject to
these General Terms and Conditions. Every contractual party (including any purchaser of a ticket
or registering for an event or conference organized by StartupXchange) agrees
to comply with and be bound
by these terms and conditions. StartupXchange reserves the right to amend and/or
remove these terms and conditions as well as any other information or content on the website
at any time, without prior notice.
2. Data Privacy Protection
2.1 The
parties recognize that StartupXchange is organizing global networking events,
which rely on the names of its participants. Therefore, StartupXchange is
allowed to publish and further process retrievable public data, as well as the data of every user provided
within the context
of a contract (or
registration). Users agree to receive both written and electronic newsletters
and other information
from StartupXchange. Cancellation of data usage is enabled through
email notification.
3. Prices and Re-scheduling
3.1 The ticket prices of tickets, stalls, and rooms on the StartupXchange website are exclusive of GST (Goods & Services Tax).
3.2 The tickets
purchased are for your own personal use or that of your business only and may not be re-sold or transferred for commercial gain under any circumstances. Any re-sale or attempted re-sale of any tickets (or any other
breach of this term) may result in the cancellation of the relevant tickets
with immediate effect.
3.3 If
the event is being rescheduled, the tickets remain valid. Ticket holders will
be eligible for a refund. If the event is being canceled due to unforeseen
circumstances (force majeure), ticket holders will be refunded the price of the
ticket against the receipt. StartupXchange does not hold itself liable for any other expenses
incurred, except in cases of intentional acts or omissions
or gross negligence.
StartupXchange strives to notify its customers of force majeure cases as
quickly as possible.
3.4 StartupXchange is not responsible for any loss or damage as a result of a substitution, alteration, cancellation, or postponement of an event. As such,
StartupXchange reserves the right to alter or modify the advertised speakers,
topics, and/or formats as well as date, time, and location of the events, without
any liability whatsoever. Any substitutions or alterations will be updated
on our web page as soon as possible.
3.5 In the case of either the event date or location
(platform) being changed,
in general, tickets remain valid.
4. Payment
4.1 StartupXchange uses third-party providers to provide secure
online payment services. The use of those
services is subject
to their own terms and conditions and privacy policy (provided on their own websites).
4.2 StartupXchange may request verification of payment for the purpose
of resolving possible disputes about the purchase.
5. Non-disclosure Agreement
5.1 "Confidential Information" shall mean any oral, written,
visual, and/or other tangible forms of
information, material, or know-how regarding any data, process, business plan,
specifications, technique, program, business information, or other proprietary
information relating to
StartupXchange and/or its affiliated entities, and disclosed, directly or indirectly, by StartupXchange.
Every contractual partner
of StartupXchange (including every registered user) shall hold in
confidence
the Confidential Information and shall not disclose such information to any
third party, even under a respective secrecy
agreement between the contractual partner
of StartupXchange and such third party, and shall not use
such information for its own benefit or the benefit of any third
party without
the prior written
consent of StartupXchange.
6. Liability
6.1 StartupXchange
will not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage to any person or property
howsoever caused during events. StartupXchange will not be responsible for any tickets
that are lost or stolen. Each participant must
make provision for their own insurance.
6.2 StartupXchange reserves
the right to refuse admission
to any event or conference for any behavior,
which it deems unacceptable, or for a breach of the terms and conditions.
6.3 StartupXchange guarantees to provide the online event
platform in a professional manner.
Failures in the provision or an interruption of the event shall not result in a claim for reimbursement of the ticket price or any other claim of the participant unless StartupXchange has caused the defect in the provision through gross negligence or intentionally.
