Terms and Conditions

These General Terms and Conditions (GTC) apply to all business relationships between Fragmentshatterer GmbH (hereinafter "Provider") and its customers (hereinafter "Client") in the version valid at the time of engagement. Deviating, conflicting or supplementary general terms and conditions of the Client shall only become part of the contract if and to the extent that the Provider has expressly agreed to their validity in writing.

The Provider provides consulting services in the field of regional development, in particular: • Consulting on regional development opportunities • Support in developing local initiatives • Strategy consulting for sustainable projects • Facilitation of funding opportunities and network contacts The exact scope of services is individually agreed with the Client and recorded in the consulting contract.

The presentation of our services on the website does not constitute a legally binding offer, but a non-binding invitation to make contact. A contract is only concluded when the Provider submits a specific offer and this is accepted by the Client in writing, or when the Provider begins to render services.

All prices are in Euros and do not include statutory VAT unless otherwise stated. Invoices are payable within 14 days of invoice date without deduction. In case of default, the Provider is entitled to charge default interest at a rate of 9 percentage points above the base rate.

The Client is obliged to provide the Provider with all information and documents necessary for service provision in a timely and complete manner. The Client shall designate a contact person who is available for all project-related questions and has decision-making authority.

The Provider is liable without limitation for damages arising from injury to life, body or health as well as for intent and gross negligence. For slight negligence, the Provider is only liable for breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations) and limited to the foreseeable, contract-typical damage. The consulting does not replace legal, tax or business professional advice. The Client is responsible for making final decisions.

Both parties undertake to keep all confidential information of the other party obtained in the course of cooperation secret indefinitely and to use it only for the purposes of fulfilling the contract. This obligation does not apply to information that is publicly known or becomes public without fault of either party.

Either party may terminate the contract with 4 weeks' notice to the end of the month. The right to extraordinary termination for good cause remains unaffected. In case of termination, the Client must pay for services rendered up to the date of termination.
