VIII. The detailed rules applicable to Ordering Services

Client may, if he / she / it so requires, indicate on the application form, that he / she / it wishes to receive information sent by Provider in e-mail on further courses and services by clicking a checkbox for this purpose.
After completing all required data on the application form and accepting the provisions of Provider’s GTC, including in particular conditions of cancellation detailed in Chapter XI of the GTC and acknowledging the same as binding upon himself / herself / itself, and also declaring to have become familiar and acknowledged Provider’s Privacy Policy, Client may submit the application via website by clicking on the “Apply” button at the bottom of the form.
After submitting the application, Provider’s system shall send an automatic reply message to Client, which serves the purpose of certifying the receipt and the content of Client’s application, but shall not constitute an acceptance of the application by Provider, and shall not give rise to an obligation on the part of Provider to provide service indicated in the application either.
By clicking on the “Apply” button, Client acknowledges his / her / its payment obligation for the use of the selected service, except for the case when Client withdraws the order prior to the provision of the service or cancels his / her / its intention to participate at the event / training within such a time frame that, under the provisions of Chapter XI, he / she / it is not yet required to pay a cancellation fee.
Provider calls the attention of Client that in case fields marked on the form with an asterisk are not filled and Client does not make the required declarations, the system shall not allow the submission of application. Provider calls the attention of Client that in case it becomes obvious after the submission of the application that Client entered false information in course of application, Provider may invalidate the application upon learning of this fact.
Further, Provider calls the attention of Client that Provider primarily accepts applications submitted electronically, via websites www.sprintconsulting.com and / or www.sprintacademy.com.
By way of derogation from the above, in case of services that cannot be ordered via websites www.sprintconsulting.com and / or www.sprintacademy.com, or which Clients are unable to order due to technical reasons, or where Client has earlier indicated his / her / its intention in writing to use a given service, Provider reserves the right to also accept orders sent by Clients to the e-mail address info [at] sprintconsulting [dot] com.

Provider reserves the right to confirm the application submitted by Client at a later date, in this case Provider shall contact Client in writing within 2 (two) business days after the receipt of the application.
Provider calls Client’s attention that Client may only demand the provision of the service from Provider at the time shown in the confirmation of the order when Client’s application has been confirmed.
Provider calls Client’s attention that an application sent by Client or the confirmation sent by Provider may only be considered as received by the other party, when it becomes accessible to the addressee.
Provider shall not be liable in any way in case the e-mail message containing the confirmation of the application is not received by Client due to the reason that the e-mail address given by Client was incorrect or the message could not be delivered due to the fact that the mailbox used by Client was full.
Provider undertakes a warranty for provision of the service ordered by Client, as well as for the amount of the service fee applicable at the time when the service was ordered and confirmed. The warranty shall not cover cases where, Provider has to modify the original date of the event or has to cancel the event due to reasons that could not be foreseen at the time when Client’s application was accepted, along with a simultaneously offered new date, if such unforeseen reason emerged on the side of Provider.
2) Further cases of ordering Services
In case of services offered by Provider, that were not ordered via websites www.sprintconsulting.com and / or www.sprintacademy.com, Client may order the services by way of sending an electronic message to info [at] sprintconsulting [dot] com e-mail address or by way of contacting Provider directly.
In case of Clients with an individual written agreement who, on the basis of the provisions of such agreements, do not use online interfaces of Provider when submitting their order, ordering of services may take place in such a way that Clients indicate to Provider their request for the use of service in writing, by way of an electronic message sent to the e-mail address specified in their agreement or – where individual agreement expressly provides so – Client shall submit information necessary for provision of the service in an individual order form constituting an annex to the agreement.
If Client wishes to use a service for provision of which – at the express request of Client – Provider gives an individual offer to Client, Client shall order services by way of making a written declaration on the acceptance of the offer.
If Parties concluded a Framework Agreement with each other, Client shall order services offered by Provider in such way specified in Framework Agreement.
IX. Prerequisites of using the Services
Provider expressly calls the attention of Client that it offers detailed information concerning the events organised by it on its website and in the offer, which information also includes whether there are any prerequisites related to participation at the given event.
By submitting his / her / its application, Client acknowledges and accepts that in case application is submitted without these prerequisites being satisfied, Provider excludes its liability concerning any effectiveness of the service that may be expected or hoped by Client.
Client further acknowledges that in the absence of satisfying the prerequisites, Provider does not undertake any liability or warranty that Client will be able to understand the material taught and the information provided in the framework of the event, nor that Client or participants will be subsequently able to use the same in practice.
X. Service fees, payment
By ordering certain services in a way specified in the present GTC, Client acknowledges and accepts that he / she / it shall have an obligation to pay the service fee.
Provider shall publish the current service fees of open (public) training / workshop services on the website www.sprintconsulting.com, while in all other cases, service fees shall be specified in the offer given to Client or at the time of the confirmation of services ordered in other ways.
If the location where the service is provided is the country of the registered seat of Provider, then Provider shall specify service fee both in HUF and EUR. In case of cross-border services, the service fee shall be determined in EUR only.
In case Client pays Provider service fee in a currency other than service fee was specified, Provider shall convert service fee on the basis of the individually determined HUF / EUR exchange rate published on the www.sprintconsulting.com website, which exchange rate shall be valid for 6 (six) months from the date of its publication. Provider reserves the right to adjust the exchange rate published on website www.sprintconsulting.com also within the above mentioned period of 6 (six) months, if HUF / EUR exchange rate published by the Central Bank of Hungary (MNB) differs from the exchange rate published by Provider at least + / – 2%.
The service fees published by Provider are net fees, not including the amount of VAT. Provider charges VAT at different rates depending on the type of service used, as well as on the location where the event is organised.
The per diem costs of trainers and consultants delegated by Provider, as well as the travel expenses and the payments for the travelling times shall be primarily paid by Provider. Provider reserves the right, however, to charge these expenses to Client.
In case of online applications submitted via the website www.sprintconsulting.com, Client shall pay the amount of service fee to the bank account and by payment due date specified on the proforma invoice sent after the acceptance of Client’s application, or pay the same at the time of submitting application by way of online payment with a bank card. Provider reserves the right to set the country the service would be provided as a condition for accepting online payment with a bank card. In case of online payment with a bank card, after entering the data on the application interface, Client shall choose the option to pay with a bank card, after which Client shall be automatically transferred to the secure payment site of CIB Bank Zrt., where the fee for the selected service may be paid by way of providing the bank card information.
Provider calls Client’s attention to the fact that, as a general rule, an application for individual services / events (e.g. all cases of public / open trainings / workshop, certain in-house trainings / workshop, etc.) may only be considered as valid and will only entitle Client to participate at the event if Client paid the amount of service fee simultaneously with the submission of application, or by due date specified on the proforma invoice, but in any case no later than on day before the date of the related event.
Provider expressly calls the attention of Client that in case the amount of the service fee for training / workshop services is not credited to Provider’s bank account in full, Client or the participant associated with Client may not attend the event concerned.
In case of training / workshop type of services, Provider shall issue an advance invoice within 1 (one) business day after payment of service fee by Client, using the billing date entered by Client in course of application, and then Provider shall issue a final printed invoice with the amount of service fee paid within 8 (eight) business days after the event (which shall not require any financial settling), and shall send the same to Client by postal mail and / or e-mail.
Provider also reserves the right to provide a discount for the use of services in case of certain conditions, including in particular, but without limitation, to charge a discounted service fee for Clients who paid service fee in full at least 1 (one) month before the first day of the training.
Provider shall issue its invoice for the service fee, at its own decision, either before provision or after completion of services.
In case of provision of service fees charged at a daily rate, Provider shall invoice to Client the service fee to be paid monthly, after the provision of services.
If Provider invoices to Client the amount of service fee to be paid after completion of service, Client shall satisfy its payment obligation within 15 (fifteen) days after the issue date of the invoice.
Provider calls Client’s attention that in case the service fee is not paid by the due date specified on the invoice, Client shall pay to Provider all additional expenses incurred as a result of late payment of the service fee, including in particular the amount of late payment interest charged after the amount of the service fee that was paid late, extent of which shall be the central bank’s base rate of interest plus eight percent points.
Provider calls the attention of Client that the fact in itself that Client uses several services offered by Provider shall not result in providing a full-scale Agile transformation or an Agile coach training or other Agile role (e.g., without limitation, an Agile Leadership, Product Owner, Scrum Master) for Client. A service of such complexity on the part of Provider would require significantly higher professional and financial investment and organisation in comparison with the provision of individual services, which is not covered by service fees of individual services and related costs. If Client wishes to use a service which is aimed at a full-scale Agile transformation or Agile coach training or the provision of other Agile role (e.g., without limitation, an Agile Leadership, Product Owner, Scrum Master), the intention to use such services shall be expressly indicated to Provider.
Client acknowledges and accepts that in case Provider duly performs its obligations arising from the present contract, i.e. service is provided, Client shall not have the right to demand refunding of service fee paid under any legal title.
Provider expressly reserves the right in case of certain types of services, as well as in case of participant number determined by Provider, not to make preparatory steps for provision of service until service fee has been fully paid by Client for all participants. Provider calls the attention of Client that the above provision does not exclude Provider’s right to demand from Client the cancellation fee in accordance with the conditions of cancellation in case of occurrence of an event giving rise to such demand.
