1. Participants

Advertising Tiles can be submitted by all live and digital exhibitors at Frankfurter Buchmesse 2020.

 

2. Offers by Frankfurter Buchmesse GmbH for Advertising Tiles

With the Advertising Tiles, the Organiser enables the Participant's own content to be advertised free of charge on the Frankfurter Buchmesse website in the form of an image, headline and link.

After successfully submitting the application form, the Participant will receive direct confirmation of the positive receipt of their submission by the Organiser in the form of a confirmation landing page.

A legal claim to display the submitted Advertising Tile cannot be derived from this.

There are three dates on which all submitted Advertising Tiles will be released subject to technical capacities.

6.2 Frankfurter Buchmesse GmbH is not obliged to review submissions and content to see whether they infringe on the rights of third parties, whether they comply with competition law provisions, or whether they violate other applicable laws.

6.3 Frankfurter Buchmesse GmbH is not responsible for third-party content to which it merely provides access for use.

The inclusion of a hyperlink on the Frankfurter Buchmesse website does not imply that Frankfurter Buchmesse GmbH has checked the contents of the linked website. Frankfurter Buchmesse GmbH expressly distances itself from the content of linked websites.

6.4 In the event of violation of the Terms & Conditions stated here, Frankfurter Buchmesse GmbH reserves the right to remove all of the Participant’s content.

Any and all contractual agreements arising from the processing and further execution of this contractual relationship must be in writing to be effective. The written form requirement shall be deemed to have been met if the respective declaration is transmitted in electronic form, by fax or e-mail, and confirmed by the other party. Should individual provisions in the registration documents, the Terms & Conditions, or in the "Technical Regulations" be or become invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining contractual provisions. In this case, the invalid provision shall be supplemented or amended with the aim to fulfil its intended meaning as best as possible.

9.1 In the event of a dispute, the interpretation of the contract and Terms & Conditions shall be based on the German text.

However, the Organiser also reserves the right to take legal action at the Participant's general place of jurisdiction.
