2. Quotation and Conclusion of Contracts

The content of our online-shop does not represent a quotation within the meaning of §§ 145 et seq. German Civil Code. Customers shall make a binding purchase offer to us by a corresponding online order.

A mail confirming receipt, which is automatically generated and dispatched by the system immediately after receipt of Customer's order, shall not represent a binding acceptance of the offer by us.

The European Society of Telemetry reserves the right to cancel European Telemetry Conferences if their realisation is unacceptably. The definition of unacceptability is the decision of The European Society of Telemetry. If an Telemetry Conference has to be cancelled The European Society of Telemetry will refund payments made for tickets.

3. Prices

The prices stated in the Internet at the time of the order shall apply. The prices stated shall be final prices, i.e. they contain the statutory Value Added Tax applicable at the time and other integral parts of prices plus dispatch costs, as can be seen from the order process.

For orders outside the European Union, statutory Value Added Tax is applicable because the European Telemetry Conferences take place in Germany.
