Terms and Conditions
1. Introduction
Welcome to BashMingle.com, a platform where users can create and join party and event listings. By registering on our website, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. Please read them carefully before using our services.
2. User Registration and Account
- Private Users: Registration on BashMingle.com is free for private individuals. Private users can create, manage, and join events without any charge.
- Commercial Users: Businesses such as clubs, bars, and other event venues that charge an entry fee for events are required to pay a fee of 100 EUR per listed event on BashMingle.com.
3. Event Creation and Guest Matching
- Private Users: After registering, private users can create event listings for free (no charge or fees at all). Guest matches will be suggested based on profile preferences, and hosts must confirm these matches.
- Commercial Users: Commercial users, such as clubs, bars, and other event venues that charge an entry fee, can also create event listings. These users must purchase event slots, with each slot allowing them to list one event that requires an entry fee. Each slot costs 100 EUR (plus 19% VAT for individuals and businesses located within the European Union in accordance with German law). An invoice will be issued based on the number of slots purchased. Once the invoice is confirmed, the corresponding number of slots will be activated and can be used for future events. For example, if a commercial user purchases one slot, they will receive an invoice for 100 EUR (plus VAT within the EU). After the invoice is confirmed, the slot will be activated and can be used to list an event with an entry fee.
4. Cancellation and Refund Policy
Payments made by commercial users are non-refundable once the event has been activated. As event slots are created individually and immediately activated upon confirmation of invoice receipt, no refunds will be issued if an event is canceled by the host after activation.5. Billing and Slot Activation Process
Once a commercial user purchases event slots, an invoice will be sent via email containing two links:- By clicking the first link, the user confirms receipt of the invoice, and the event slot is immediately activated. The invoice must be paid within 7 days of the invoice date and must be received in full. If payment is not received by the 8th day, the customer's profile and all associated events will be suspended until the payment is made. Payments are checked daily (except weekends and public holidays).
- If the second link, "Cancel Purchase," is clicked, the purchase will be canceled, and the invoice will be voided. This option is only available if the invoice has not yet been confirmed via the first link, and the event slots have not been activated.
6. VAT and International Customers
As the platform is operated from Germany, the statutory VAT of 19% according to German tax law applies to customers within the European Union and will be added to the invoice. For customers outside the European Union, no VAT will be applied, and the gross amount equals the net amount.7. Non-payment and Account Suspension
If payment for an invoice is not received by the due date and the customer’s account and events are suspended, the account (including all events) will be permanently deleted after two weeks. The customer will be blacklisted and will no longer be able to register on bashmingle.com. Any slots that have been paid for will not be refunded.8. Account Deletion by Customer
If a customer deletes their account voluntarily, any paid slots will not be refunded.9. User Conduct and Responsibilities
All users are responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide when creating an account and listing events.
BashMingle.com reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or engage in inappropriate conduct.
