General Terms and Conditions
PM1 is a marketing platform of the company B-PROJECTS, LDA. PM1 acts as a provider of product management services. In the following, “PM1” is used to refer to this function.
Application: The following terms and conditions apply to contracts between PM1 and the respective contractual partner, hereinafter referred to as “contractual partner”, which are concluded for all services offered by PM1 via the website www.pm1.de. The contractual partner recognises that these conditions apply exclusively and that deviating conditions are only valid if PM1 has agreed to them in writing. In the latter case, such individual agreements take precedence over these General Terms and Conditions.
Registration: Registration for a PM1 event must be made using the registration form on the website or in writing by letter, fax or e-mail. Registration is binding and will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. The contractual partner will receive a confirmation of registration with further details of the event, such as the programme, location, room booking and preparation. When booking an individual service such as an individual specialist coaching session, the contractual partner will receive a corresponding booking confirmation with information to clarify further order details.
Conclusion of contract: PM1 offers various types of events. The organisation of open training courses, workshops and conferences normally requires a minimum number of participants. Therefore, the confirmation of registration does not constitute a declaration of acceptance for the conclusion of the contract. As soon as the minimum number of participants has been reached, PM1 will inform the contractual partner immediately and send a confirmation of implementation. The contract between PM1 and the contractual partner comes into effect when the confirmation of fulfilment is sent by email. In the case of individual services such as individual specialised coaching, the contract between PM1 and the contractual partner is concluded after clarification of further order details by means of a written order confirmation, which PM1 sends to the contractual partner.
Invoice: PM1 usually sends the invoice together with the order confirmation. The payment term is 14 days. In any case, the invoice is due by the start of the event at the latest, but not before receipt of the invoice.
Special regulation for event platforms: PM1 markets and sells some events via so-called event platforms such as Xing Events. In this case, registration, contract conclusion and invoicing are handled directly by the respective event platform as PM1’s contractor. When registering for an event via the respective event platform, the contractual partner receives their registration confirmation and invoice immediately at the end of the registration process. Depending on the selected payment method, the invoice then serves as confirmation of payment or constitutes a request for a bank transfer.
Service contents: The main and ancillary services to be provided by PM1 are described in the respective product descriptions on the PM1 website and are therefore part of the contract. As the individual products have different formats, the ancillary services in particular, such as catering services, may vary accordingly between the products. PM1 therefore recommends that you check the included services carefully before registering. Confirmation of participation in the event is only deemed to have been issued once payment has been received by the respective event platform.
Digital learning content: The following supplementary regulations apply to digital learning content. The contractual partner or the named participants will receive personal access to the respective learning offer at the latest when the confirmation of implementation is sent. Use of the digital learning programme is limited to the respective participants and for a specific period of time. Passing on the access data to third parties is prohibited. In the event of non-compliance, PM1 reserves the right to block the access data of the contractual partner.
Participation fee: The participation fee is per person plus statutory VAT. This is due for payment by bank transfer to the specified account after invoicing without deductions and stating the invoice number. When registering via an event platform, the participation fee may also be due immediately, depending on the payment method.
Accommodation: Unless otherwise stated, the participation fees do not include accommodation costs. The room contingent reserved by PM1 at the conference hotels is generally limited in terms of the number of rooms and is only available for a limited period of time. It is the responsibility of the contractual partner or the participants to inform themselves independently about the available room contingent and conditions at the conference hotel after receiving the registration confirmation and to make bookings. The reservation made there by the Contractual Partner or its participants shall be at the Contractual Partner’s own risk and expense.
Cancellation by the contractual partner: Cancellation of participation by the contractual partner must always be made in writing and is possible at any time. As the binding registrations form the basis for the necessary and early planning of the event by PM1, in the event of cancellation PM1 must charge the contractual partner cancellation costs in the full amount of the participation fee. However, the contractual partner has the option of naming substitute participants free of charge, depending on the number of participants booked.
Programme and service changes by PM1: PM1 reserves the right to change the venue and the conference hotel up to four weeks before the event. PM1 will endeavour to stay as close as possible to the originally planned venue. In this case, the contractual partner or the participants will of course be informed immediately. In addition, PM1 reserves the right to replace the planned trainers or speakers with other trainers or speakers if necessary.
Cancellation by PM1: PM1 reserves the right to cancel the event if the minimum number of participants is not reached at least four weeks before the start of the event for face-to-face events and two weeks before the start of the event for online events. Any participation fees already paid will of course be refunded to the contractual partner. PM1 cannot assume any costs incurred for travel and accommodation that have already been booked. If PM1 has to cancel an event, PM1 will also cancel all rooms reserved in the corresponding room contingent at the conference hotel, provided that these were reserved using the booking code provided in the registration confirmation.
Cancellation policy and right of cancellation for consumers: Consumers have a statutory right of cancellation for distance selling contracts. A consumer within the meaning of § 13 BGB is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly outside his trade, business or profession. Consumers have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The cancellation period is 14 days from the date of conclusion of the contract. To exercise the right of cancellation, the consumer must inform PM1 by means of a clear written declaration (letter, fax or email) of their decision to cancel this contract. In order to comply with the cancellation period, it is sufficient for the consumer to send the notification of the exercise of the right of cancellation before the expiry of the cancellation period. Consequences of cancellation: If the consumer cancels this contract, PM1 shall reimburse the consumer for all payments received from him, including delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a type of delivery other than the cheapest standard delivery offered by him), immediately and at the latest within 14 days of the day on which the notification of cancellation of this contract is received by him. The same means of payment used by the consumer for the original transaction will be used for this repayment, unless expressly agreed otherwise with the consumer; in no case will the consumer be charged any fees for this repayment. If the consumer has requested that the service should commence during the cancellation period, he shall pay PM1 a reasonable amount corresponding to the proportion of the services already provided up to the time at which the consumer notifies him of the exercise of the right of cancellation in respect of this contract compared to the total scope of the services provided for in the contract.
Event documents and documentation: Any utilisation of event documentation and training documents to third parties, whether for a fee or free of charge, requires the prior written consent of PM1. The event documentation and training documents issued and/or made available on the Internet or a learning platform are protected by copyright and may not be reproduced or redistributed – not even in part – without the consent of PM1. PM1 makes the documents exclusively available to the respective contractual partner. In particular, the publication of audio or video files, digital presentations, photo protocols or scripts in publicly accessible portals on the Internet is prohibited.
Image and sound recordings: Image or sound recordings made during an event require the prior written consent of PM1 in all cases. The same applies to any subsequent use of image or sound recordings of the event. PM1 may take photographs of participants at the events for later use in a photographic record. These photographic records will be made available exclusively to the participants of the event attended. If a participant does not agree to his/her person being included in the photo record, he/she must inform the event organiser on site in good time.
Provision of lists of participants: PM1 usually provides the participants of an event with a list of participants stating their name, position and company in printed and/or electronic form. If the contractual partner or the participants do not agree to the inclusion of the data on the list of participants, this must be communicated by e-mail to info@pm1.de 5 working days before the event.
Liability: PM1 is only liable within the scope of the fulfilment of its contractual obligations for its own intentional or grossly negligent breaches of duty or those of its legal representatives or vicarious agents. In the event of a breach of a material contractual obligation, liability is comprehensive, but in the case of slight negligence limited to reasonably foreseeable damage typical of the contract. The liability of PM1 or its legal representatives and vicarious agents for damages resulting from culpable injury to life, limb or health remains unaffected.
Data protection: The collection, processing and use of the contractual partner’s personal data is carried out in strict compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation. The data is used and processed exclusively for processing and invoicing purposes and for the purpose of sending the contractual partner information material on PM1’s range of services by post or e-mail. We reserve the right to exchange personal and company-related data of our contractual partner with our affiliated companies for the fulfilment of our contractual obligations and for the provision of product offers. The contractual partner can object to the processing and use of their personal data for the purpose of providing information about current offers from PM1 at any time with effect for the future. The objection should be addressed to: B-PROJECTS, LDA, Moradias da Ermida A2, 8400-095 Estombar, Portugal, or by email to info@pm1.de. For details on the handling of data, please refer to our privacy policy, which we have published on our website www.pm1.de.
Validity: Should individual provisions of these terms and conditions be or become invalid in whole or in part, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of the contract.
Place of jurisdiction: The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contract between PM1 and the contractual partner is Munich, Germany.
