However, the operator does not participate in dispute resolution procedures and is not obliged to do so.
11. Cancellation and Refund of Advertising Services
General Notes
Advertising services for organizers are digital services that are individually provided after booking and may be executed immediately. Therefore, special regulations apply regarding cancellation and refunds.
No Refund After Start of Service Provision
Once a booked advertising service has been fully or partially provided or activated (e.g. banner publication, highlighted event placement, newsletter dispatch or preparation), there is no entitlement to a refund of the paid fee.
Cancellation Before Start of Execution
Cancellation by the organizer is only possible as long as the service has not yet been activated or technically prepared.
In this case, the operator may, at its discretion:
- cancel the order free of charge or
- charge a processing fee.
Incorrect Bookings / Duplicate Payments
If an incorrect booking or duplicate payment is proven, the operator will refund the overpaid amount in full.
Failure of Service by the Operator
If a booked advertising service cannot be provided due to technical reasons attributable to the operator, the organizer will receive either:
- renewed provision of the service or
- a full refund of the corresponding fee.
No Refund Due to Event Changes
Changes, postponements or cancellations of an event by the organizer do not entitle the organizer to a refund for advertising services already executed or activated.
12. Invoicing
- For paid services, the operator issues an electronic invoice pursuant to § 14 UStG.
The invoice is made available to the organizer after payment is received, either automatically in the user account or by email. - For payments via online services such as Stripe, PayPal or Klarna, invoicing takes place only after successful completion of the payment process, as payment is initiated immediately during the order process.
- The organizer agrees that invoices will be provided solely in electronic form. There is no entitlement to postal delivery.

This section describes how invoices for paid services are issued and how payment confirmations are processed.
Invoicing for Online Payments (Stripe, PayPal, Klarna)

Invoicing for Other Payment Methods (if available in the future)

- Service provision begins only after payment has been received, unless expressly agreed otherwise.
