4.1 General provisions

The participant in the event acknowledges that no right of revocation exists with respect to the completed purchase of their admission ticket, subject to subsection 4.3 and section 4.4 below. The tickets purchased for the event can therefore be neither exchanged nor refunded. By registering, the participant agrees to these General Terms and Conditions and to any further security, access or other operational rules issued for the event in question and undertakes to adhere to these and to instructions issued by employees of WEYA Sàrl (or its third-party agents). The participant acknowledges that they may be excluded from the event if they fail to adhere to these rules and instructions. In the event of such exclusion, the costs of the event ticket shall neither be compensated nor refunded. WEYA Sàrl reserves the right to substitute other speakers for those announced and to make any necessary changes to the event programme while safeguarding the overall character of the event. The costs of the event ticket shall neither be compensated nor refunded as a result of such changes. On the arrival of the participant, the ticket will allow him/her to acquire a personal badge, which will be the “pass” for the event. In order to receive it, it is necessary to have a piece of identification for control.

4.2 Postponement of the event

If the event is postponed for whatever reason, the ticket purchased shall automatically be valid for the new event date. Tickets may not be refunded or exchanged. If hotel accommodation has been booked, it may not be possible to automatically move the booking to the new event date. A change to the hotel booked or to the price cannot be ruled out; any additional costs shall be borne by the participant.

4.3 Interruption or cancellation of the event

If an event must be interrupted or cancelled as a result of force majeure, external influences (demonstrations, influence of violence, threats by third parties, pandemics, epidemics, COVID-19), event bans by the authorities (Confederation, canton, local council) or other circumstances for which WEYA Sàrl is not responsible, or if the event is cancelled by WEYA Sàrl for any other reasons, the following provisions shall apply to refunds:
  • cancellation up to one month before the beginning of the event: 80% of the ticket price shall be refunded
  • cancellation up to two weeks before the beginning of the event: 50% of the ticket price shall be refunded
  • cancellation less than two weeks before the beginning of the event or in the event of the interruption of the event: no refund
Cancellation or refunding of any hotel accommodation booked shall only be possible to the extent that the hotel agrees to a cancellation or pays a refund.

4.4 Withdrawal of the participant

The following withdrawal and cancellation provisions shall apply to all reservations, registrations and bookings (meeting, hotel arrangements, outward and return travel, evening events):
  • withdrawal up until the 30th of September: 100% of the ticket price shall be refunded
  • withdrawal up until the 15th of October: 50% of the ticket price shall be refunded
  • withdrawal up after the 15th of October: no refund
In the case of events lasting more than one day, the first day of the event shall be deemed to be the beginning of the event. These withdrawal and cancellation provisions shall apply to absence as a result of illness, accident or other causes for which the participant is not responsible. The declaration of withdrawal shall be made in written form by post, e-mail or fax. Entitlement to a refund shall be determined by the date of receipt of the written declaration of withdrawal. For Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, the following working day shall be deemed to be the applicable date. It is not possible to split or transfer the ticket. Deviations from this are possible by way of exception but shall always be subject to an administrative fee.
