General Terms and Conditions of Business and Use of the Internet Platform “Webshop Renaissanceschloss Rosenburg”.

1. general
1.1.
These General Terms and Conditions apply to e-ticketing contracts concluded via the internet platform of the Renaissance Castle Rosenburg, represented by Mr. Dipl. Ing. Markus Hoyos, (hereinafter referred to as “Schloss Rosenburg”) with end consumers (hereinafter referred to as “Customers”).
1.2.
Schloss Rosenburg provides a platform where customers can purchase tickets online for events and Rosenburg Castle tours. In this case, several e-tickets can be purchased in the course of one order process; in this case, the following provisions shall apply mutatis mutandis to all e-tickets.
1.3.
The contract for the purchase of a ticket is concluded directly between Rosenburg Castle and the customer.
1.4.
By clicking the “continue” button, the customer makes an offer to Schloss Rosenburg to conclude an e-ticketing contract. This offer is accepted by sending a confirmation email, which includes a link to the printable e-ticket. This concludes the e-ticketing contract. The handover takes place at the customer’s premises by printing out the ordered e-ticket. The e-ticket can also be printed out from the Internet browser at the end of the ordering process. The customer bears sole responsibility for a complete and legible printout of the e-ticket.
1.5.
The e-tickets are valid only for the tour or event dates or tour periods specified in the course of ticket purchase. In the event that specific dates are available for selection, the customer can select the desired dates from the respective available date offers when ordering tickets. A postponement is no longer possible after the conclusion of the contract.
1.6.
The e-ticket can only be redeemed on the selected date (date, period if applicable) or within the respective redemption period of the e-ticket. Late redemption is not possible – the e-ticket becomes invalid in this case.
1.7.
In order to use the booked service (sightseeing, tour, event, etc.), the Customer must present a printout of his/her e-ticket before the start of the service. The e-ticket is validated in accordance with the technical arrangements (e.g. turnstiles, electronic or manual validation by supervisory staff) of the respective operator. In the case of tickets that entitle the holder to use several services at the same time (combination tickets), validation is performed according to the access to the respective services. The principle of first access applies, i.e. once the e-ticket has been validated in the course of the first access to a service, no further access to the same service can be granted with the same e-ticket (this does not affect access to services for which the ticket has not yet been validated in the case of combination tickets). Invalid or already validated tickets do not entitle the holder to use the booked service.
1.8.
The customer is not entitled to make multiple printouts of the same e-ticket or to duplicate, reproduce or forward the e-ticket in any form whatsoever. The customer must keep his e-ticket carefully in order to avoid misuse.
1.9.
By using the e-ticket, the customer also accepts the house rules of Rosenburg Castle.
1.10.
The services offered via Schloss Rosenburg are leisure services within the meaning of Section 5 c (4) (2) of the Consumer Protection Act (KSchG), which are provided at a specific time or within a precisely specified period of time. The customer therefore has no right of withdrawal (§ 5f Z 7 KSchG).
1.11.
By clicking on the declaration “I have read and agree to the GTC”, the customer acknowledges the validity of these General Terms and Conditions of Rosenburg Castle, which are made available to the customer with a separate link directly at the declaration “I have read and agree to the GTC” before conclusion of the contract. The Rosenburg Castle contracts only to these valid ABG’s.
2. payment
2.1.
Payment for the e-tickets ordered is made via Wirecard’s e-payment module. Various credit cards and instant bank transfer are accepted. Other payment methods are not possible.
