General terms and conditions of business

Thank you for your interest in our offer!

1 Registration and conclusion of contract

Your binding registration for the offer you have selected from Switzerland Innovation Park Ost AG (“ SIP Ost ”) takes place online on the website of SIP Ost or its associated partners or service providers. SIP Ost is entitled, but not obliged, to accept registrations that SIP Ost receives in a different form (e.g. personal telephone inquiry, etc.). You are bound to your registration for a period of 10 days. When SIP Ost sends the registration confirmation by email, a legally binding contract is concluded between you and SIP Ost.

The registration confirmation sent automatically immediately after registration is only valid as registration confirmation if this is expressly noted in the text.

SIP Ost can withdraw from the contract with you for various reasons, for example if the contractual provisions are violated, insolvency occurs or uncertainties arise during a possible credit check.

By registering, you acknowledge that these General Terms and Conditions (GTC) become part of this contract. Differing or additional provisions to these General Terms and Conditions only apply if they have been agreed in writing. This also applies to the waiver of this formal requirement or the change to this provision.

2 Offers and subject matter of the contract

SIP Ost offers various offers, such as events, sponsorship, membership, use of rooms (“ room rentals ”), etc. The current offers are listed on its website. All offers are non-binding.

In exceptional cases, payment by invoice or in cash is possible. An additional processing fee may apply. For payments by invoice, the payment deadline is 10 days from the invoice date. The invoice will be sent by SIP Ost via email. After the payment period has expired, the entire outstanding participation fee is automatically in default. All amounts that are not paid within the payment deadline are subject to interest at the rate of 5% annually. In addition, SIP Ost is entitled to charge a fee of at least CHF 20.00 for each reminder.
