1.2. The services of the Provider covered by these T&C are directed exclusively at entrepreneurs within the meaning of Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB), i.e. natural or legal persons or partnerships with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, act in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

1.3. These T&C do not apply to the contracts concluded between Merchant and End Users or between Supplier and Merchant, as the case may be. The Provider itself does not offer any tourist services and does not become a contractual partner of the contracts concluded exclusively between the Users of the Services or between Users and End Users. However, in addition to the services covered by these T&C, the Provider itself also acts as a merchant of individual leisure and travel services, and in this context it also uses the platform and interfaces provided.

1.4. Deviating terms and conditions of the user, as well as changes and additions to these terms and conditions are only effective if they are accepted in writing by the provider.

1.5. In this respect, however, Users acknowledge that cancellation/rebooking policies communicated by the Supplier or in each individual product also apply between Merchant and Supplier. The Provider shall make this information available to the Merchant for each individual product, either via a product-related text information or via a link to the Supplier’s blanket cancellation/rebooking conditions.

Furthermore, the Provider is entitled to change the Terms and Conditions at any time. Changes to the Terms and Conditions will be announced on the Website and can be downloaded by the User. The continued use of the Provider’s services after the announcement of the relevant changes shall be understood as acceptance of these changes, unless the User objects to the changes within 15 days after the announcement. The affected User shall have the right to terminate the existing contract before the expiry of the period. The introduction of new Products by the Supplier within the Term shall be deemed to be a clearly confirmatory act waiving the Term, except in cases where the Supplier is required to make significant technical adjustments to its Products as a result of the changes. In the latter case, the introduction of new products shall not automatically be considered as a waiver of the deadline.
