(1) These Terms and Conditions (“T&C”) apply to all services offered by Lufthansa Innovation Hub GmbH (hereinafter referred to as “LIH”, “we”, or “us”) via the website https://academy.lh-innovationhub.com/ (“Website” or “our Website”), in particular trainings, enablement formats and workshops (collectively referred to as “Formats”).
(2) All agreements entered into between you (“Customer”) and us in connection with the contract arise from these T&C, our written booking confirmation, and our declaration of acceptance.
(3) The version of the T&C valid at the time of contract conclusion shall apply.
(4) We do not accept any deviating terms and conditions of the Customer. This shall also apply if we do not expressly object to their inclusion.
§ 2 Conclusion of Contract
(1) The presentation and promotion of our Formats on our Website do not constitute a binding offer for the conclusion of a contract but are rather an invitation to submit a booking request for the products described therein.
(2) A booking is made by clicking the button labeled “Book with obligation to pay.” The contract is concluded upon completion of the subsequent booking and payment process. We will confirm the booking promptly via email.
§ 3 Right of Withdrawal
(1) If you are a consumer (i.e., a natural person who enters into the contract for purposes that are not primarily attributable to your commercial or self-employed professional activity), you are entitled to a statutory right of withdrawal.
(2) The provisions concerning the right of withdrawal are detailed as follows:
Withdrawal Policy
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen (14) days without stating any reason. The withdrawal period is fourteen (14) days from the date of conclusion of the contract. To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must notify us at:
Lufthansa Innovation Hub GmbH
Brunnenstraße 19-21
10119 Berlin, Deutschland
Email: academy@lh-innovationhub.com
via a clear statement (e.g., letter sent by post or email) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You may use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, although its use is not mandatory.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send the notification of your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the expiry of the withdrawal period.
Consequences of Withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse all payments received from you, including delivery costs (except for any additional costs resulting from your choice of a different delivery method than the least expensive standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and no later than fourteen (14) days from the date on which we receive your notice of withdrawal. For this reimbursement, we will use the same payment method you used in the original transaction unless explicitly agreed otherwise; under no circumstances will you be charged fees for this reimbursement.
If you requested that services commence during the withdrawal period, you must pay us a reasonable amount corresponding to the proportion of the services already provided up to the time you notify us of your withdrawal, compared to the total services provided for in the contract.

§ 5 Provision and Execution of the Format
(1) The content and scope of the Formats correspond to the service descriptions provided on our Website. Our Formats are designed such that attentive participants can achieve the intended learning objectives. However, we do not guarantee a specific outcome (e.g., successful completion of an exam, acquisition of specific skills, or issuance of a certificate).
(2) There is no legal entitlement to the delivery of the booked Format by the specific trainer listed on the Website. We reserve the right to substitute the designated trainer with another trainer from our organization.

We reserve the right to cancel a Format for good cause. A valid reason may include, but is not limited to, failure to meet the minimum number of participants or the illness of the trainer. We will notify you immediately in the event of such cancellation. In this case, any payments already made will be refunded without delay. No further claims by the Customer shall arise from such cancellation.
§ 7 Cancellation by Participants
Independent of the statutory right of withdrawal, Customers may cancel the contract under the following conditions:
The Customer has the right to prove that LIH incurred no damage or significantly lesser damage. Alternatively, the Customer may nominate a substitute participant at any time, provided that the substitute meets the participation requirements.
§ 8 Liability and Force Majeure
§ 8.1 Liability
(1) We shall be liable to you in all cases of contractual and non-contractual liability for damages or reimbursement of futile expenses in accordance with statutory provisions where the damage results from intent or gross negligence.
(2) In all other cases, and unless otherwise stated in paragraph 3, we shall only be liable for the breach of a contractual obligation essential to the proper execution of the contract and which you as the Customer can normally expect to be fulfilled (so-called “cardinal obligation”). In such cases, liability shall be limited to typical and foreseeable damages. In all other cases, our liability is excluded, subject to paragraph 3.
(3) The above limitations of liability shall not affect our liability for damages resulting from injury to life, body or health, or under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).
§ 8.2 Force Majeure
(1) Force majeure refers to any unforeseeable, serious event beyond the control of either contracting party, including but not limited to war, terrorist attacks, epidemics, strikes, fire damage, floods, lawful lockouts, operational disruptions not attributable to the parties, or official orders.
(2) In the event of an inability to fulfill contractual obligations due to force majeure, the affected party shall immediately notify the other party of the beginning and end of such event. The affected party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of the force majeure.
(3) The contracting parties agree to adjust the contract in good faith in light of the changed circumstances. For the duration and to the extent of the direct or indirect effects, both parties shall be released from their contractual obligations and shall not be liable for damages. Furthermore, either party may withdraw from the contract if it becomes apparent that the agreed performance date will be exceeded by more than six weeks.
§ 9 Copyright and Intellectual Property
We hold the copyright to all images, videos, and texts relating to our Formats. Use of such materials without our express consent is prohibited.
Recording, streaming, or otherwise making online Formats available to unauthorized third parties (including allowing others to listen in via your device) may constitute a criminal offense and will be reported to the public prosecutor’s office on a case-by-case basis.

§ 11 Final Provisions
§ 11.1 Applicable Law
(1) The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

(2) If you are a merchant and your registered office is in Germany at the time of ordering, the exclusive place of jurisdiction shall be Frankfurt am Main. In all other cases, the applicable statutory provisions shall determine the local and international jurisdiction.
§ 11.2 Written Form Requirement
In contracts not involving a consumer, any amendments or supplements to this contract and these T&C must be made in writing to be valid. This also applies to any waiver of the written form requirement itself.
§ 11.3 Severability Clause
Should individual provisions of this contract be legally invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. In place of the invalid provision, the applicable statutory regulation shall apply. If adherence to the contract would result in unreasonable hardship for one party, the contract as a whole shall be deemed void.
