Booking Terms

1. Scope

These general booking terms apply to performances and musical services by “My Groove Family” where they are incorporated at the time the contract is concluded. Deviating terms of the organiser do not become part of the contract unless we expressly agree to them in writing.

2. Contracting party

The contracting party is Mathias Mondel, Alte Reichsstrasse 38, 86356 Neusäß, Germany, trading as “My Groove Family”. “My Groove Family” is the project and band name, not a separate legal entity.

3. Non-binding enquiry and conclusion of contract

An enquiry sent through this website or by email is non-binding and constitutes neither an offer nor a booking. A contract is concluded only through a separate written booking confirmation or an individual agreement in text form. Until then there is no claim to the availability of a date.

4. Individual booking confirmation

Scope, duration, fee, playing times, breaks, technical requirements, travel and other event-related services follow from the respective individual booking confirmation or agreement. These terms govern only the general framework.

5. Scope of performance

What is owed is the musical performance described in the booking confirmation. The choice and order of the pieces is for the band to decide unless agreed otherwise. Changes to the line-up for good cause remain reserved, provided the overall artistic character of the performance is not materially altered.

6. Fee and payment terms

The amount of the fee, any additional costs and the due date and method of payment are set out in the booking confirmation. Where the booking confirmation is silent, the statutory provisions apply.

7. The organiser’s cooperation

The organiser provides the conditions required for the performance, in particular a suitable, weather-protected performance area with adequate load-bearing capacity, a proper power supply and reasonable access for delivering and setting up equipment. Any official permits required for the event are the organiser’s responsibility.

8. Changes of date and cancellations

Changes of date require the agreement of both sides. If one side cancels the agreed date, the consequences follow from the individual agreement and otherwise from the statutory provisions. These terms set no flat-rate cancellation compensation.

9. Force majeure, illness, impossibility

If the performance cannot take place for reasons neither side is responsible for – such as force majeure, official orders or illness – both sides are released from their obligations. We will inform the organiser without delay and make reasonable efforts to find an alternative date together. No claims for damages arise from such a cancellation as long as neither side is responsible for it.

10. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence and for damage arising from injury to life, body or health. In cases of simple negligence we are liable only for breach of a material contractual obligation whose fulfilment makes proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose observance a party may rely; in that case liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical of this type of contract. Liability under mandatory statutory provisions remains unaffected.

11. Copyright and rights of use

Photographic, audio and video recordings of the performance for commercial purposes – in particular recordings, livestreams or publications – require prior consent. For the use of our photos, logos and texts to announce the event we grant the organiser a simple right of use limited to that purpose.

12. GEMA and event rights

Registering the event with GEMA, paying any fees due and obtaining other event-related rights and permits are the organiser’s responsibility unless agreed otherwise.

13. Consumer information

Where the organiser acts as a consumer within the meaning of § 13 BGB, statutory consumer rights apply. The relevant information – including any details on a right of withdrawal – is provided together with the specific offer or booking confirmation, because the contract is not concluded through this website.

14. Data protection

How we process personal data is set out in our privacy policy.

15. Precedence of individual agreements

Individual agreements between the parties always take precedence over these terms. Should any provision be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions is unaffected.

16. Applicable law

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies. Mandatory consumer protection provisions of the state in which an organiser acting as a consumer has their habitual residence remain unaffected.
