Submission and Deadlines, The purchaser shall be responsible for providing all required texts, images, logos, files and other materials necessary for the execution of the agreed marketing or promotional opportunity in a timely, complete and correct manner. Deadlines communicated by CAST Events B.V. for the submission of materials shall be binding. If materials are not submitted, are incomplete or are not submitted in the required format before the relevant deadline, CAST Events B.V. cannot guarantee that the relevant communication will be included in the planned marketing or promotional activity. Failure to submit materials on time shall not entitle the purchaser to a refund, discount or compensation, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
27.5. Submitted Materials, The purchaser warrants that the materials submitted are accurate and do not infringe the rights of third parties, including copyrights, trademark rights, portrait rights and other intellectual property rights. The purchaser shall be responsible for the content of the submitted communications and shall indemnify and hold CAST Events B.V. harmless against third-party claims arising from the materials submitted by the purchaser or the content thereof.
27.6. Printed Materials and Signage. If marketing or promotional opportunities involve printed materials, physical materials or signage, execution shall also depend on the planning, technical possibilities and availability of the printer, sign maker or other service provider engaged by CAST Events B.V. Accordingly, CAST Events B.V. cannot guarantee exact colour reproduction, material reproduction, dimensions, placement or other execution details to the extent these depend on an external service provider. Printing, production or execution errors cannot be completely excluded. CAST Events B.V. shall use reasonable efforts to prevent such errors where possible and, where reasonably possible, to remedy them.
27.7. Printing and Typographical Errors, All marketing and promotional communications, including printed materials, digital communications, online publications and signage, shall be subject to printing, typographical, writing and other similar errors. Obvious errors shall not entitle the purchaser to compensation, a discount or cancellation of the agreed marketing or promotional opportunity.
27.8. Changes and Circumstances, CAST Events B.V. reserves the right to adjust the execution of marketing and promotional opportunities if circumstances relating to the event, communication channels, planning, technology, location or cooperation with third parties so require. If an agreed marketing or promotional opportunity cannot be executed, in whole or in part, as a result of such circumstances, CAST Events B.V. shall use reasonable efforts to provide an appropriate alternative. Such alternative execution shall not automatically entitle the purchaser to a refund or compensation.
27.9. No Guarantee of Reach or Results, Purchasing a marketing or promotional opportunity shall not constitute a guarantee of any specific reach, number of impressions, visitor numbers, leads, sales, interactions or other commercial results, unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing in advance.
27.10. Liability, CAST Events B.V. shall not be liable for any damage arising from a marketing or promotional communication not being published or executed, not being published or executed on time or in full, or being published or executed differently than expected, insofar as this results from circumstances over which CAST Events B.V. reasonably has no control, including technical failures, errors or delays on the part of external suppliers, printers, sign makers or other third parties. CAST Events B.V.'s liability shall, to the extent permitted by law, be limited to the amount paid by the purchaser for the relevant marketing or promotional opportunity.
27.11. Acceptance of Communications, CAST Events B.V. reserves the right to refuse marketing or promotional materials if, in its opinion, their content, design or nature does not fit the event, target audience, corporate identity, organisation or communication policy of CAST Events B.V., or if such materials conflict with applicable laws or regulations or the interests of CAST Events B.V. In such event, CAST Events B.V. shall inform the purchaser thereof as soon as reasonably possible and, where reasonably possible, provide an opportunity to submit amended materials.
