6 Tasks and responsibilities of the provider
6.1 All tickets are sold and issued exclusively by the authorized providers. C02P is not a vendor and is not a party to the contractual relationship between the vendor and the purchaser. The purchase contract is concluded directly between the provider and the buyer. The services provided by C02P only serve to deliver tickets to the buyer, the (indirect) communication of the provider with the ticket holder and the administration of tickets. C02P therefore does not bear the risk of any insolvency of the provider or the buyer.
6.2. C02P has no direct or indirect influence on the contractual relationship between Supplier and Purchaser and bears no responsibility for (a) the fulfillment of the contract, (b) the issuance of the Tickets, (c) the accuracy, completeness or validity of the Ticket or its barcode, (d) any default in performance (in particular, (d) any default in performance (including but not limited to default in payment and delivery), (e) reversals of performance, (f) payment and refund of the purchase price, (g) incorrect or incomplete information, or (h) any other disputes, claims, costs, damages or expenses arising in the context of the contractual relationship.
6.3 The sale of tickets requires the accurate and detailed entry of information relevant to the event, in particular information on event content, venue, event date, prices, seating, rows, general terms and conditions of the provider and the house rules of the venue. C02P assumes no guarantee or liability for the accuracy and completeness of this information, but reserves the right to check it. The provider must disclose all relevant information for this purpose.
6.4 The Provider grants C02P the non-exclusive, transferable, worldwide, royalty-free right and license to reproduce, modify, adapt, publish and display the descriptions of the tickets offered for sale.
6.5 Tickets are issued exclusively in electronic form. Tickets are delivered via the app and website. The electronic ticket is valid as access authorization, which must be presented at the event venue either as a printout (Print@home) or directly on a smartphone (Mobile Ticket).
6.6 The provider is responsible for creating an individual barcode. The principle of first entry applies, according to which the electronic ticket that is accepted first upon entry is the valid one. Subsequent, reproduced tickets are automatically invalidated by the first use of the barcode. In this context, C02P accepts no liability for any misuse or other duplication of the ticket.
6.7 In the event that events are canceled, postponed or rescheduled, C02P is not liable for the refund of admission fees. However, the provider can notify the affected purchasers of these changes on request. In this context, the provider must indemnify and hold C02P harmless for any claims by ticket holders.
6.8 Buyers may pass on the tickets they have purchased from the Provider to third parties via the app for a fee or free of charge. The Provider has the right to establish guidelines for resale against payment, whereby non-commercial resale against payment must be permitted in any case. The provider hereby gives its consent to the transfer of the tickets free of charge and against payment.
6.9 The transfer of tickets to third parties is subject to the condition that the third party accepts the event conditions of the provider and C02P. If the third party rejects these conditions, it is not possible to pass on the tickets.
6.10. The provider undertakes to cooperate fully in connection with the issuing of tickets. If - due to any circumstances whatsoever - problems arise with the issuing of tickets or tickets are demonstrably lost, the provider undertakes to issue replacement tickets.
7. payments between supplier and buyer
7.1 C02P does not participate in any way, either directly or indirectly, directly or indirectly, in payment transactions between the provider and the buyer. Payment of the ticket purchase price is made via the payment method provided by the provider.
7.2 C02P therefore assumes no warranty, guarantee, liability or other responsibility for (a) the payment of the Tickets by the Buyer, (b) the refund of the purchase price by the Provider, (c) the forwarding of the purchase price to the Provider, (d) the amount of the fees charged by the external payment service providers, or (e) other claims in connection with the payment or refund of the purchase price.
8 Conclusion of contract, prices and payments for services
8.1 By C02P's acceptance of the offer signed by the provider, the contract between C02P and the provider is concluded. C02P reserves the right not to accept the Offeror's offer without giving reasons.
8.2 The provider can choose between the Basic, Pro and Enterprise price models, the content and price structure of which can be seen in Annex A. "Ticket users" within the meaning of Annex A are all clearly assignable ticket holders who can be reached by the provider. They are taken into account and counted as soon as they have received one or more tickets.
8.3 The Provider undertakes to pay the fees and other charges of the selected service model listed in Annex A and to pay all other costs and expenses invoiced by C02P for the use of the Services.
8.4 All prices and charges are exclusive of the applicable statutory value added tax.
8.5 C02P issues monthly invoices for the fees, charges and costs incurred in the previous month. If the contractual relationship begins or ends during a month, the fee is due pro rata. Invoices are due for payment immediately upon receipt and without deduction, unless special payment terms are agreed in writing in individual cases.
8.6 The provider can choose between the payment options of direct debit, bank transfer or credit card processing for the payment of invoices.
8.7 C02P is entitled to increase prices in the event of increases in wage costs, material costs, other costs and charges or in the event of a change in the economic situation. The increases shall be deemed accepted by the provider from the outset if they do not exceed 5% per annum.
8.8 Offsetting by the provider with counterclaims or with alleged price reduction claims is only permitted if the claim has been legally established by a court or has been expressly established in writing by C02P as undisputed.
8.9 A payment is on time if C02P can dispose of the amount owed by the due date. Proof of a payment dedication, for example on a transfer voucher, is not sufficient.
8.10. In the event of default of payment by the Provider, the statutory default interest in the amount applicable to business transactions shall apply. Furthermore, in the event of default of payment, the provider undertakes to reimburse C02P for the dunning and collection expenses incurred, insofar as they are necessary for appropriate legal prosecution. C02P is entitled to charge reminder fees of EUR 40 per reminder letter. The assertion of further rights and claims remains unaffected.
8.11. In the event of default of payment by the Provider and unsuccessful two reminders, C02P may temporarily or permanently restrict or completely deny access to and use of the Services and block the Provider's user account. The exercise of these rights does not release the
Provider from its obligation to perform.
8.12. Objections to invoiced claims must be raised by the provider in writing within 10 working days, otherwise the claim shall be deemed accepted. Objections shall not prevent the invoice amount from falling due, unless there are obvious errors in the invoice.

This obligation also includes the full reimbursement of all legal fees and costs of legal representation incurred by C02P in this connection.
10.8 The Vendor shall be solely responsible for the determination, calculation and payment of any duties, fees and taxes arising from the sale. Should C02P be confronted with such third-party claims, the Vendor undertakes to reimburse C02P for all costs, interest and expenses.

This obligation also includes the full reimbursement of all court fees and costs of legal representation incurred by C02P in this connection.
