Registration
Conclusion of contract
Registration for any IST-F event or Training is made in writing using a form by letter, e-mail or by registration form via the website. With the registration, the customer submits a binding offer. IST-F will accept or reject the offer by email confirmation. A confirmation of receipt, if sent beforehand, does not constitute a contractual relationship. From the registration on, communication will be conducted exclusively by e-mail to the e-mail address specified in the offer. The customer is therefore obliged to notify a change of e-mail address without delay.
The contract is concluded by the written confirmation of registration and the receipt of the invoice (by email). If a registration cannot be considered, IST-F will inform the registrant* and offer a place on the waiting list or an alternative course. The number of participants* in a course or workshop is limited. Admission to the respective courses is made according to the selection criteria for the respective event or Training. With his/her registration, the participant assures that he/she is able to actively participate in the respective course due to his/her personal prerequisites. With his/her registration, the participant further assures that all his/her details are correct and that he/she will comply with the company and medical confidentiality obligation with regard to information concerning third parties that becomes known to him/her during the seminar.Charges

- If a participant can move up from the IST-F waiting list, the participation fee will be waived or refunded.

Special right of termination / Termination for cause
The participant may withdraw from/terminate the contract for good cause. In the event of a proper withdrawal/cancellation for good cause, the participant may participate in an equivalent IST-F event for half of the full course fee or, after individual agreement, may make up the participation in a suitable, future IST-F event. An important reason is, for example, an unexpected serious illness, a serious accident of the participant or his/her relatives living in the household, but no operational reasons.
The right to withdraw/terminate for good cause does not apply if the occurrence of the good cause was foreseeable at the time of registration for the seminar event. In the event of withdrawal for good cause, the participant undertakes - as soon as it is possible - to inform IST-F in writing and to provide suitable information and evidence upon request.Cancellation, suspension and rescheduling of courses
The IST-F is entitled to withdraw from the contract for good cause, regardless of other reasons, in particular if there are not enough registrations for an event or if the event has to be cancelled due to circumstances for which the IST-F is not responsible. In the aforementioned cases, any participation fees already paid for the cancelled event(s) will be refunded in full. Participants are not entitled to any further claims, in particular claims for damages. The events will take place in the rooms specified by IST-F. The respective seminar locations will be communicated in good time before the start of the seminar.
Change of lecturers and seminar rooms
If, in rare exceptional cases, a change of lecturer/lecturer or seminar or course room becomes necessary, the change of lecturer, room and/or a shift in the schedule - provided that the overall quality of the event is not significantly impaired - shall not entitle the participant to withdraw from the contract or to reduce the fee.
Participant's duty to cooperate
The customer is obligated - upon request by the IST-F - to undertake all necessary acts of cooperation so that the IST-F can provide the contractually owed services. If the customer does not fulfill his obligations to cooperate, the IST-F is released from its obligations to the full extent. The obligations of the customer remain unaffected. The IST-F is entitled to exclude participants from further participation in special cases. In these cases, the IST-F is entitled to payment of the full participant fee.
Warranty and guarantees
IST-F does not provide any guarantee. It does not owe success in the provision of the contractual services. It renders the services owed according to the rules of the state recognized at the time of the events and to the best of its knowledge and belief. If, after the event has been held, circumstances change which may have an influence on the success owed under the contract in individual cases, the customer shall have no claims arising from this, unless IST-F is responsible for these circumstances.

The IST-F is only liable for gross negligence and intent. The liability in case of slight negligence applies exclusively in case of violation of main obligations.
