General Terms and Conditions of M Events Cross Media GmbH for the use of services by GUEST SPEAKERS OR LISTENERS via the website portal m-anage.com
1. Scope
These General Terms and Conditions are valid for the services offered by M Events Cross Media GmbH (hereinafter referred to as „M Events“) to the respective organisers in connection with the use of m-anage.com. Terms other than these General Terms and Conditions explicitly do not apply. This is also applicable in as far as the organiser refers to the validity of his General Terms and Conditions in standardised forms in the framework of confirmation letters and wishes to include them in this way. General Terms and Conditions possibly deviating from these shall then also not become integral parts of the contract even if M Events does not explicitly object to them.
2. Subject matter of the contract
2.1 M Events operates an online portal, enabling organisers of congresses or comparable events (hereinafter referred to as "congress") to process your registration as guest speakers or listener online. For this purpose M Events makes server capacities available and the necessary software with the so-called executive conference interface "m-anage.com" (hereinafter referred to as "por-tal").
2.2 M Events arranges services provided by the respective organiser in his name and on his behalf via the portal. A contract on the offered services is only concluded between you and the respective organiser. The organiser may possibly use further General Terms and Conditions about which you must obtain information, if need be. Name, address and further contact data of the organiser shall be informed by M Events in the framework of the registration process.
3. Registration
A registration via the portal is necessary to participate in the respective congress. You must hereby enter your personal data required for the accreditation. M Events edits this data according to valid data protection laws and the explanations on the privacy law published by M Events on the portal. The participation takes place depending on your wish and the offer by the organiser, either as a visitor to the event or as a guest speaker on the conditions described below.
4. Application as a guest speaker – submitting abstracts
4.1 In so far as the respective organiser offers you the chance to apply as a guest speaker, you must upload to the portal an abstract of the lecture you wish to give at the congress. By uploading the data you declare yourself in agreement with M Events passing on the abstract to the organiser resp. the examination commission assigned by him. If the abstract is endorsed, the organiser may invite you to the congress; however, he is not obliged to do so. The organiser will inform you of the exact date and the time of the lecture when the invitation is sent.
4.2 Upon uploading your abstract you declare yourself in agreement with your abstract, in the case of you being invited to the lecture, being published, duplicated, distributed and made publicly accessible on the organiser’s websites as well as on M Events or other third party sites, in all print and online media and any publications ensuing in connection with the congress, wholly or partially and unrestricted in terms of time and location.
4.3 You guarantee M Events, the respective organiser and other third parties authorised to use your abstract that you are entitled to the described granting of rights and no third party rights oppose this (e.g. due to contractual relationships with third parties or due to unclarified personal rights) and furthermore that no statutory provisions are breached due to the contractual use of the ab-stract. You will exempt M Events, the respective organiser or other authorised third parties from any claims by third parties who wish to assert these due to a possible legal breach.
5. Participation as a listener
5.1 The respective conditions (dates, prices, etc.) stated during the registration process are valid for your participation in the congress as a listener. M Events will pass on your accreditation and other wishes to the respective organiser. The prerequisite is that you have accepted the General Terms and Conditions and privacy policy of M Events.
5.2 The processing of payments is done through a service provider commissioned by the organiser (so-called PayGate). For this purpose M Events will direct you to the relevant PayGate portal.
5.3 A contract on the accreditation only comes into being after the payment of the partial fee and explicit acceptance by the respective organiser with this. The acceptance is done through his accreditation confirmation, which is also done, if necessary, on behalf of and by order of the organiser through M Events.
6. Liability by M Events
6.1 M Events points out that it is not possible according to the current state of the art to create soft-ware in such a way that work can be performed error-free or protected against manipulation by third parties in all application combinations. This also applies to the failure of hardware and soft-ware.
6.2 M Events is liable for all damages it has caused culpably or in a grossly negligent way pursuant to statutory conditions.
6.3 M Events is also liable for damages for which it is responsible from the injury to life, body or health. A possible liability according to the Product Liability Act as well as in the application area of § 44 a TKG (Telecommunications Act) remains unaffected.
6.4 M Events is only liable for all remaining damages in the case of a breach of an essential contractual obligation, i.e. an obligation that enables the realisation of the contract according to the rules in the first place and on whose observance the user regularly trusts. The liability, however, is in any case restricted to the loss with which M Events would have to typically reckon under the circumstances known at the time of contract conclusion.
6.5 In the case of a delay or impossibility for which M Events is responsible, which does not represent any essential contractual breach, a liability on the part of M Events is excluded if it is merely guilty of slight negligence or the delay or impossibility is based on force majeure or other events outside of its sphere of influence. Moreover, the liability is restricted the typical, foreseeable damage.
6.6 A more extensive liability on the part of M Events is excluded without consideration of the legal nature of the claim lodged. This especially applies to tort liability claims or claims for compensation of futile efforts instead of performance and the liability for any indirect or consequential damages, such as, for example, lost profit.
6.7 Insofar as pursuant to this contract rent law is to apply, a liability regardless of causality is ex-cluded for initial faults to a rented object.
6.8 Damage claims by you become statute-barred after one year. The limitation starts with the origin of the respective damage claim and your knowledge or grossly negligent lack of knowledge of the claim reasons and infringer; without taking this into consideration the claim for compensation be-comes statute-barred three years after the infringement.
6.9 In so far as the liability of M Events is excluded or limited, this also applies to the liability of its employees, representatives and vicarious agents or other third parties M Events commissions to fulfil this contract.
6.10 M Events retains the right to prevent contents you made available on the portal and which appear questionable to M Events from being spread on the portal as soon as it acquired knowledge of this. M Events will immediately inform you of this. The same applies if M Events is requested by third parties to change or delete contents made publicly accessible online because they apparently breach third party rights. In case you can provide evidence that a breach of third party rights is not on hand, M Events will make the contents in question accessible again upon your request.
7. Cancellation policy
The following cancellation policy is not valid in so far as the legal transaction can be attributed to your commercial or freelance work.
7.1 Right of revocation
You may revoke your contractual declaration within two weeks without stating reasons in text form (e.g. letter, fax, email). The deadline begins upon the receipt of these instructions in text form, however not before contract conclusion and also not before the fulfilment of our information duties pursuant to § 312 c para. 2 BGB (German Civil Code) in connection with § 1 para. 1, 2 and 4 BGB-InfoV (duty to supply information ordinance), as well as our obligations pursuant to § 312 e para. 1 sentence 1 BGB in connection with § 3 BGB-InfoV. Sending the revocation on time ensures the right of revocation. The revocation is to be sent to: M Events Cross Media GmbH, Heimstraße 5 a, 82152 Krailling or telefax: 089 – 43569659 or email security@m-anage.com.
7.2 Consequences of revocation
In the case of an ineffective revocation the services received from both sides are to be granted back and, if need be, benefits derived to be released (e.g. interest). If you cannot grant us back the received service wholly or partially or only in a deteriorated state, you must provide value replacement in this respect, if need be. Obligations to reimburse pay-ments must be fulfilled within 30 days. The deadline starts for you upon the dispatch of your declaration of revocation, for us upon the receipt thereof.
7.3 Special information
In the case of a revocation right pursuant to § 312 d para. 1 BGB, which is valid for a dis-tance contract on the provision of a service, your right of revocation expires prematurely if the contract has been completely fulfilled by both parties upon your explicit request before you have exercised your right of revocation.
8. Miscellaneous
8.1 Should individual terms in these General Terms and Conditions be ineffective, the effectiveness of the remaining terms shall remain unaffected. Instead, their place should be taken by a provision coming closest to the commercial purpose as intended initially by the parties.
8.2 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany is valid with the exception of the UN sales law (CISG). The court of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contractual relationship is Berlin, Germany as far as you are merchant, a corporate body under public law, special assets of the German Federal Government or you do not have your usual domicile in Germany. M Events can also proceed against the organiser at his legal place of establishment.
