TERMS OF SERVICE
LANGUAGE COURSES

Registration and de-registration, payment of course fees
Every registration is binding and requires the participant to pay the course fee. Prices are in Swiss francs. Failure to pay the course fee does not constitute cancellation. After registering for a course, the participant will receive an invoice from ae text & sprache with binding payment instructions. The participant must check the registration confirmation immediately and report any errors immediately. The duration of the contract depends on the course booked and is limited.
In the event of a course cancellation, the following cancellation fees apply:
Cancellation after the start of the course with a doctor's certificate: CHF 100 processing fee
Withdrawal after the start of the course without a doctor's certificate: 50% of the outstanding course fee -
Partial payments
Partial payments are possible upon request of the participant. -
Lessons not attended
Group courses: Lessons not attended cannot be made up and the course fees paid for them will not be refunded. Individual lessons: The canceled lessons will be rescheduled, whenever possible, in consultation with the course leader. -
Course exclusion
ae text & sprache reserves the right to exclude participants from a course. In this case, the entire course fee is owed, i.e. there will be neither a proportional refund nor a waiver of the course fee. Reasons for exclusion from a course: non-payment of course fees and serious cases such as defamation, harassment, intentional damage to property, etc.
TEXT EDITING

A contract is concluded when:

b) the text is transmitted as a Word document
c) and receipt of the text has been confirmed by ae text & sprache. -
The corrections and suggestions for improvement are written in the correction mode. This is how the author decides whether he or she wants to do the corrections. A file with the corrections made is also included.

If the client withdraws before completion of the order for reasons for which ae text & sprache is not responsible, a payment obligation in the amount of the expenses incurred so far arises.
