A. Conditions of Participation
 

A1. Scope, Contractual Partner & Subject Matter of the Contract
 

A1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (GTC) shall apply between the customer (hereinafter referred to as "Customer") and Future of Coches GmbH (hereinafter referred to as "FoC").
 

A1.3 Persons who have not reached the age of majority are always represented by their legal representatives when making legal and quasi-legal declarations. However, the legal representatives - in accordance with their obligation upon registration - expressly assume full liability for payment obligations of any kind (arising from the contractual relationship with the persons legally represented by them) vis-à-vis FoC.

 

A2   Conclusion of contract, content of contract, prices and terms of payment
 

A2.1   All offers made by FoC (in particular training courses and vacation camps) shall be subject to change without notice and shall merely constitute an invitation to the customer to submit a contract offer. The contract shall be concluded upon confirmation of participation by FoC, which shall be equivalent to the sending of an invoice for the respective course participation(s). 2.2 The contract shall be governed by the FoC price list valid at the time of registration, unless the Customer has received a separate offer from FoC.
 

A2.3   Recurring courses shall be invoiced to the Customer monthly in advance and shall be due for payment. The monthly fee shall not be reduced as a result of any cancellations due to vacations and/or public holidays (section 6.2. shall apply to non-participation). Individual courses and summer camps are usually invoiced and due to the customer in advance. Invoice amounts are due in full to FoC on the payment date specified in the invoice. Receipt in the account specified in the invoice shall be decisive for the timeliness of payment. All bank charges incurred in connection with the payment (in particular charges for return debit notes etc. for which the Customer is responsible) shall be borne by the Customer.
 

A2.4   Recurring courses are invoiced via a subscription. The subscription can be cancelled at any time with a 2 months notice period. The cancellation period of the subscription is 2 months from the last renewal date of the subscription. You may cancel the subscription at any time, subject to the 2-month notice period, by sending an email to the following email address of the respective subsidiary, stating the subscription order number and the player for whom you wish to cancel the subscription:

A2.5 FoC can – on a voluntary basis – offer a make up session to customers of recurring courses who have not been able to attend a training session due to for example illness. Make up sessions are only a voluntary service of FoC and do not form part of the normal offering of FoC as Customer is solely responsible for attending a paid for training session.

A Make up session enable the customer to attend another course of the same or equal course type at no fee or a reduced fee. If there are no training sessions of the same or equal course type available, FoC cannot offer Make up sessions. Whether a fee is charged to the customer for attending a Make up session or the Make up session is provided at no cost to the customer is at the discression of FoC.

Furthermore Make up sessions can be taken only if FoC has offered them and the number of participants in the training course chosen for the Make up session is small enough, i.e. that the number of participants is not negatively influencing the quality of a training session. Make up Sessions are offered by FoC on a voluntary basis only and are non refundable in any case, for example in case a customer is missing the agreed upon Make up session.

 

 

A3   Liability of FoC
 

A3.1   Liability for own fault (including legal representatives and agents):
 

A3.1.1 The liability of FoC, including its legal representatives and vicarious agents, shall be limited to intent or gross negligence.
 

A3.1.2 The limitation of liability stated under 3.1.1. shall not apply:

-      to liability for damage resulting from injury to life, limb or health if this is due to a negligent breach of duty on the part of FoC or an intentional or negligent breach of duty on the part of a legal representative.

-      negligent breach of duty by a legal representative or vicarious agent of FoC;

-      in the event of a negligent breach of material contractual obligations (cardinal obligations) by FoC, including its legal representatives or vicarious agents; in this case, compensation shall be limited to typically foreseeable damages.
 

A3.1.3 Participation in certain events may require personal prerequisites of the participants (e.g. age; state of health, etc.), the fulfillment of which is the responsibility of the customer. The existence of special requirements for special courses is pointed out separately by FoC, as far as these do not already result from the nature of the matter (e.g. no participation in courses in an intoxicated state or under the influence of drugs; ability to swim etc.).
 

A3.1.4 Courses and camps are generally held in all weather conditions. In case of weather-related danger to life and limb of the participants (e.g. hurricane-like storm or weather-related unplayability of courses etc.) or in other cases of force majeure, FoC is entitled to cancel services that cannot be carried out or even the entire course. FoC shall not be liable for non-performance or damages due to cancellations as a result of force majeure.
 

A3.1.5 FoC has the right at any time to cancel courses and vacation camps without substitution if the required number of participants is not reached before the start of the course. If the parties are unable to agree on a substitute course or camp, the Customer shall receive a full refund of any course fees already paid. Further claims of the customer, especially claims for damages or reimbursement of useless expenses (e.g. purchase of equipment or costs for travel) are excluded.
 

A3.1.6 FoC is not liable in any case in connection with the arrival and departure of the customer to courses and / or vacation camps or accommodation during vacation camps, which are always at the risk and expense of the customer (own travel and own organization of accommodation by the customer). In particular, FoC does not provide any services under the terms of the travel contract, as FoC only provides training and education services during vacation camps. Outside the units, courses or camps, FoC also assumes no supervisory duties over the (especially underage) customers. In the context of so-called vacation camps, contractual obligations and/or supervisory duties exist exclusively during the daily training sessions.
 

A3.2   Liability for third party negligence in (the procurement of) third party services:
 

A3.2.1 Insofar as the services of FoC are limited to the mediation of other companies, FoC shall neither be liable for the success of the mediation (i.e. the conclusion of a contract between the Customer and the mediated company) nor for the proper provision of the mediated services by the mediated company, but shall be liable exclusively for the careful selection of the mediated company. 3.2.2 The provisions under 3.1 shall apply accordingly with regard to the liability of FoC for the careful selection of the brokered company (clause 3.2.1).
 

A3.2.3 If a company or companies involved in the performance of the services or courses is not an intermediary but acts as a subcontractor or vicarious agent of FoC, the provisions of section 3.1. shall apply directly.

 

 

A4. Duties and obligations of the customer; declarations in connection with injuries, illnesses, medical treatment and insurances
 

A4.1   The customer shall meet his payment obligations (see, among others, Sections 2.2. and 2.3.) in due time.
 

A4.2   The Client must always follow the general rules of conduct (no drug or alcohol consumption, no vandalism, etc.) and the instructions of FoC during the units, courses and vacation camps. In case of non-compliance with rules of conduct and/or instructions, FoC has the right to exclude the Client from the respective course unit or the entire course or camp, insofar as the non-compliance disturbs the proper execution of the unit, course or camp and the Client is responsible for the non-compliance. In this case, the customer is not entitled to a (pro-rata) refund of course fees.
 

A4.3   By signing the contract or registering for the course, the customer (or his/her legal representative) confirms that he/she is in good health and fully able to exercise. The Client (or his/her legal representative) is also obliged to inform FoC in writing of all health impairments and/or the necessity of any medication and/or medical/medical treatment.
 

A4.4   By signing the contract or registering for the course, the Client (or his/her legal representative) warrants that he/she has proper health and liability insurance. In case of illness or injury of a Client during the Units, Courses or Camps, the Client (or his/her legal representative) authorizes FoC to take all necessary steps for his/her medically necessary care or treatment and/or home transportation on behalf of and at the expense of the Client. Should FoC incur any costs as a result, the Client shall be obligated to reimburse FoC for such costs. In particular, the legal representative agrees to the medical treatment of his under-age children in case of illness or accident, if prior consent cannot be obtained in time. In cases of emergency, this consent also applies to surgical interventions, if these are deemed necessary in the opinion of the attending physician and the prior consent of the legal guardian cannot be obtained in time.

 

 

A5   Termination (Cancellation) of Individually Booked Units or Courses and Summer Camps by the Customer
 

A5.1   In the event of termination or cancellation of individually booked units, courses or vacation camps by the Customer without any breach of duty for which FoC is responsible, the Customer shall in principle pay FoC 100% of the agreed remuneration, provided that the termination/cancellation occurs within the last seven days prior to the start of the course, unit or vacation camp in question. For recurring units or courses, on the other hand, clause 6 shall apply.
 

A5.2   In the cases of clauses 5.1, the Client shall be expressly permitted to prove that FoC has not suffered any damage at all or that the damage is significantly less.
 

A5.3   In the cases of clauses 5.1, FoC shall expressly reserve the right to prove and claim higher damage or further damage items outside the typically occurring damage.
 

A5.4   The declaration of termination (cancellation) of the contract must be made in writing and shall only become effective at the time of its receipt by the contracting party. Failure to comply with the written form requirement shall be irrelevant if the (terminated) contractual partner provides written confirmation of the termination (cancellation).
 

A5.5   The right to terminate without notice (extraordinary termination for good cause) shall remain unaffected by the provisions under Sections 5.1 to 5.3 and Section 6.

 

 

A6. Termination of recurring units or courses (continuing obligations)
 

A6.1   Both FoC and the Client shall have the right to terminate recurring courses or units by giving two months' notice based on the end of the last prolongation date of the recurring course. For example a subscription started on 12.02.2023 and is cancelled on 04.04.2023, the basis for the 2 months notice period is the last prolongation date of the recurring course, which is 12.03.2023. Hence based on the 2 months cancelation time the customer will be charged 2 more times (12.04. / 12.05.) and is able to attend trainings up to the last possible date, which is 11.06.2023. Cancellation must be made in writing and shall only become effective at the time of its receipt by the contracting party. Failure to comply with the written form requirement shall be irrelevant if the (terminated) contractual partner provides written confirmation of the termination.
 

A6.2   Non-participation in or discontinuation of recurring courses, regardless of the reason, shall not be deemed to be a termination within the meaning of clause 6.1 and shall in particular not release the customer from the obligation to pay the monthly course fees, unless FoC is responsible for the non-participation or discontinuation.

 

A7. Photo and film rights
 

A7.1   The customer (or his legal representative) agrees with the conclusion of the contract or course registration that photos, film recordings or other audiovisual media services during the units, courses or camps by FoC or its agents (eg advertising agencies) are made and used. advertising agencies) and to be published by FoC without restriction for public relations in all media, in particular also on the Internet and social networks (e.g. facebook, twitter, instagram, etc.), also in edited form - without spatial, temporal or content restrictions - and to be used or distributed for commercial purposes.

A.7.2. Declaration of consent to photo and/or film recordings in accordance with Art. 13 DSGVO By registering for a course with FoC and its subsidiaries I agree that all pictures and/or videos of my daughter/son may be taken and published
- on the homepage and
- on the social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin)
and may also be saved for this purpose.

The photos and/or videos are for public relations purposes only.

I am aware that photos and/or videos can be accessed on the Internet by any person. Despite all technical precautions, it cannot be ruled out that such persons will continue to use the photos and/or videos or pass them on to other persons.

I have read and understood the information overleaf according to Art. 13 DSGVO.

This declaration of consent is voluntary and can be revoked vis-à-vis Future of Coaches at any time with effect for the future. If the recordings are available on the Internet, they will be removed as far as this is possible for the association.

 

A8. Choice of law / place of jurisdiction / place of performance
 

A8.1   The legal relationship between the Provider and the Customer shall be governed exclusively by German law, to the express exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
 

A8.2   The place of performance for obligations arising from or in connection with this contract shall be Munich, provided that the Customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. In this case, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for disputes arising from or in connection with this contract shall be Munich. The same shall apply if the customer has no general place of jurisdiction in Germany.

 

A9. Continuation of courses during school holidays
 

A9.1   FoC does not conduct weekly courses during school vacations. However, the course fee for the weekly courses will still be charged, since the course fee is a mixed calculation and allows FoC to charge a consistently reasonable price for the weekly courses.
 

A9.2   The Client has the possibility to inform himself at any time about the school vacations and thus to cancel the weekly course in due time by observing the 2-month notice period.
