1. The General Terms and Conditions apply to ticket purchases and the procurement of ticket purchases for scheduled events and the purchase of goods via order forms, orders by e-mail and webshops on www.close2fan.com, on subdomains and on third-party domains insofar as these shops and order forms are operated by Close2Fan GmbH. The GTC apply in the version valid at the time of the order. Unless otherwise stated, Close2Fan GmbH sells tickets or packages and/or goods to the buyer in its own name and for its own account. However, it is not itself the organiser, unless this is stated in the individual case. By purchasing tickets / goods, the buyer also accepts the general terms and conditions of the respective organiser and / or the seller and the house rules of the respective venue. The general terms and conditions of the respective organiser and / or seller and the house rules of the respective venue can be found on the respective homepages.

II. conclusion of contract

 1. All orders placed by the customer are binding as soon as the customer has clicked on the button "continue to payment" & “payment” in the webshop or on the order form. In the case of orders via webshops or order forms, the customer shall receive a separate, possibly automated confirmation of receipt and content of his order after receipt. This confirmation does not automatically constitute acceptance of the purchase. This shall only take place by means of a separate written order confirmation, sending of the invoice or by means of delivery.

 2. The correctness of the data contained in the web shops, order forms and / or on the homepage of Close2Fan GmbH is not guaranteed.

III. price components & payment modalities

In the webshops, payments are possible with a valid credit card (VISA, Mastercard), internet enabled debit cards issued to the purchaser, as well as by EPS and Sofortüberweisung. For orders via order forms and by e-mail, only bank transfer is possible. Some payment methods may vary depending on availability in some countries. If the name of the buyer and the credit card or account holder differ, Close2Fan GmbH reserves the right to refuse the conclusion of the contract or to cancel an order already placed at its own discretion and also without consultation (chargeback of the purchase price).

2. Depending on the type of event, the type of delivery and the goods, different shipping and service costs may be charged. These charges are displayed to the customer in the shopping basket when ordering in webshops & in the order information for order forms and e-mail orders. The customer will not incur any further, non-disclosed costs beyond these. 3.

3. The total price of each order is due immediately with the payment methods credit card, debit card, EPS, immediate transfer  and with invoicing.

4. Each ticket shall only become valid upon payment in full.

IV. Delivery

Misuse of the admission authorisation will be punished. Modifications and copies (including unauthorised resale and unauthorised forwarding of mobile tickets) are prohibited. The organiser and the venue expressly reserve the right to refuse access to the event in the event of altered or misused admission tickets. Close2Fan GmbH, the organiser or the venue are not responsible for any additional costs or inconvenience caused as a result. Close2Fan GmbH accepts no liability for loss of data in the customer's area (e.g. deletion of the ticket).

2. The principle of first access applies. The respective ticket that is accepted first with its unique identification is the valid one. Subsequent tickets with the same identification will be automatically invalidated by the access of the first ticket.

3. Goods, unless a different delivery date is specified (e.g. on the evening of the event), will be dispatched by us within 14 days of receipt of payment. The choice of transport company is made by us to the best of our knowledge and belief but without guarantee for the choice of the fastest delivery. Additional costs incurred due to the provision of an incorrect delivery address by the customer or due to unjustified refusal of acceptance shall be borne by the customer.

It will, however, endeavour to obtain such from the organizer. In the event of cancellation, only the ticket price will be refunded. Services and shipping fees have already been paid and can therefore not be refunded. 2.

In the event of a cancellation, postponement or change to an event, we will attempt to inform all customers within a reasonable period of time after we have become aware of these changes. Changes are not grounds for price reductions or withdrawal from the contract.

Minor and customary changes to the programme and/or cast are not grounds for a refund or reduction of the ticket price. In the event of cancellation, postponement or such changes, no expenses (e.g. travel, hotel, ...) will be reimbursed.

3. Except for the cases mentioned in paragraphs 1 and 2, Close2Fan GmbH is not liable for damages caused by simple negligence.

4. As far as the liability of Close2Fan GmbH is excluded or limited according to the above paragraphs, this also applies to the liability of its vicarious agents and assistants.
