For all Services and the use of the Platform, Tiqqo has a best-efforts obligation, unless Parties have agreed in writing and in detail on specific performance agreements in the Agreement.
3.2. The Platform is accessible to the Organizer through access rights granted by Tiqqo. All information placed on the Platform regarding Tickets or events falls under the responsibility of the Organizer, who must verify its accuracy. Any errors in this information cannot lead to liability claims against Tiqqo by the Organizer.
3.3. The sale and/or reservation of Tickets, including all associated (legal) actions between Organizer and User, fall entirely under the responsibility of the Organizer. This responsibility remains in full force, regardless of the use of the Service and the Platform. This includes, but is not limited to, establishing the Purchase Agreement for the Ticket and its execution, such as sending Tickets to Users.
3.4. In the Purchase Agreement for Tickets, Tiqqo acts solely as a facilitator. The Platform, Tiqqo's Service, and the Agreement for its use are intended to enable the conclusion of the Purchase Agreement between Organizer and User. Tiqqo is explicitly not a party to this specific Purchase Agreement for Tickets.

a) Users are charged service fees as part of the total Ticket price.
b) Organizers are charged fees for the use of the Platform and related services.

3.7. The Organizer provides all information and materials that Tiqqo reasonably needs in connection with the execution of the Agreement and the use of the Platform, including, but not limited to, information about events for which the Organizer expects a peak in sales, so that Tiqqo has sufficient time to take appropriate measures to technically accommodate such sales peaks.
3.8. The Organizer declares and guarantees that all provided information and materials are correct, complete, accurate, and up-to-date and will immediately notify Tiqqo if information or materials are no longer so. The Organizer guarantees the accuracy, completeness, and reliability of the data and documents made available to Tiqqo, even if these originate from third parties, and further guarantees that such data is always lawfully in its possession.
3.9. Tiqqo provides Organizers and Users with remote access to the Platform and Services via the internet or other similar and common networks.
3.10. The use of the Platform by the Organizer and Users must at all times be in accordance with the relevant regulations and procedures established by Tiqqo, including these General Terms and Conditions.

3.13. The Organizer bears the risk of the selection, use, application, and management of the equipment, software, websites, data files, other products and materials, and the services to be provided by Tiqqo, including the Service and the Platform, but will conform to minimum (system) requirements set and to be set by Tiqqo for the use of the Service and the Platform.
3.14. Tiqqo reserves the right to create a maximum of four (4) free Tickets for the relevant event to monitor activities on the Platform, provided that the maximum number of available Tickets for such an event is not exceeded.

a) Tiqqo is not obligated to provide support for the Complimentary Tickets;
b) Support for paid tickets remains in full effect;
