Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully, as they contain important information about your legal rights, remedies, and obligations. These Terms and Conditions govern your membership in the FitTech Club as well as other business relationships functionally related to the Club's core services. The Club is operated by FitTech Company GmbH, Sambergerstr. 9, 81477 Munich, Germany ("Organization"). ✅1. Contractual parties1.1 These Terms and Conditions apply between the Organization and the individual or entity ("Member") who enters into a Membership Agreement, as well as to any third party engaging in legal transactions with the Organization that are functionally related to the core services of the FitTech Club (including but not limited to event participation, content access, or networking activities).
1.2 Only entrepreneurs within the meaning of Section 14 BGB (German Civil Code), i.e., natural or legal persons or legally responsible partnerships acting in the exercise of their commercial or professional activity, may register for membership.
2. Subject of the contractAll legal transactions, offers, and agreements relating to the FitTech Club membership, as well as any other services, programs, or commercial activities offered by the Organization that are functionally connected to the core components of the membership (including but not limited to events, digital content, access licenses, networking services, and matchmaking formats), shall be subject exclusively to these Terms and Conditions. Deviating terms from the Member or third parties shall not apply, even if not expressly rejected by the Organization.
3. Conclusion of contract3.1 Membership is typically established through the payment of the applicable membership fee via the Organization’s designated checkout process (e.g., Stripe) or any other available payment method. By completing the payment, the individual or entity enters into a binding agreement governed by these Terms and Conditions. Other means of concluding the membership agreement, such as through email or manual invoicing, are not excluded.
3.2 These Terms and Conditions constitute the legally binding agreement governing the Member’s participation in the FitTech Club. They are made available to the Member during the checkout process, through the invoice, and on the Organization’s website.
4. Membership services4.1 The Member receives within the scope of the membership access to a curated digital B2B platform including peer-to-peer networking, expert insights, exclusive events, and matchmaking opportunities. The scope of services is detailed at https://fittechclub.com and may be adjusted per Section 10.7.
4.2 Membership entails a bundled service license, entitling the Member to access a defined suite of digital features and community-based services. These include, but are not limited to, expert-curated content, private member forums, exclusive event formats, and personalized matchmaking offerings. This license does not constitute a time-based delivery of individual services but rather grants the right to utilize the comprehensive package of member services during the applicable billing period. Such entitlement exists independently of the Member’s level of participation or actual usage frequency. Access rights are deemed fulfilled upon the enablement of the core service infrastructure, not contingent on the Member’s specific engagement with each component.
4.3 Organization may change prices with 30 days' notice. Members will be informed and may terminate the contract with 14 days’ notice if they do not accept the new terms.
4.4 Additional services may be offered. Such add-ons may be governed by supplementary terms.
4.5 Services are provided "AS IS" and subject to availability. The Organization disclaims liability for interruptions due to circumstances beyond its control.
4.6 Services are controlled from Germany. Use outside of Germany is at the Member’s own risk and responsibility for compliance with local laws.
5. Member Obligations 5.1 Membership fees are based on the selected plan. All fees are exclusive of applicable VAT.
5.2 Special pricing (e.g., promotional offers) is valid only for the initial agreed term and shall not automatically renew. Upon renewal, the standard membership fees and conditions applicable at that time shall take effect, unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing.
5.3 Invoices are due upon issuance. Payment must be made within 14 days. Failure to pay may result in:
- From day 15 to day 30 after the payment due date: The Organization reserves the right to temporarily restrict the Member’s access to the membership services in part or in full. This includes, in particular, the exclusion from all live or interactive elements such as virtual or in-person events, mastermind sessions, and matchmaking opportunities. Access to static content (e.g., past recordings, downloadable materials) may also be restricted at the Organization’s discretion. The Member remains obligated to settle the outstanding payment during this period in order to restore full access rights.
- From day 31 after the payment due date: The Organization is entitled to unilaterally terminate the Membership Agreement with immediate effect. This includes full deactivation of access to all membership services and platforms, removal from all communication channels and community spaces, and formal offboarding from the FitTech Club network. Termination does not release the Member from the obligation to pay the outstanding amount, and the Organization reserves the right to initiate legal steps or assign the claim to a debt collection service if necessary.
5.4 No refund is available once the core service has been substantially delivered. A service is deemed substantially delivered once the Member has been granted access to the primary membership functions and features (e.g., expert content, community access, matchmaking). This definition is directly tied to the refund policy in Section 5.4, which stipulates that no refunds shall be issued for billing periods during which this access has been granted, regardless of whether or how extensively the Member chooses to use the services. Actual use is not a requirement for fulfillment.
Furthermore, if the primary functions and benefits of the Membership were accessible to the Member for a substantial portion of the initial term (e.g., more than 50%), the Organization reserves the right to limit or deny pro rata refunds, as outlined in Section 10.6 provided such limitation does not conflict with applicable commercial laws.
5.5 Members agree to provide accurate and complete information and keep their data updated. Members indemnify the Organization from liability resulting from omissions or misinformation.
5.6 Participation in mastermind sessions includes adherence to the following conduct:
- Confidentiality: Members shall not disclose shared information.
- Communication: Honest, open sharing is expected.
- Feedback: Contributions should be based on personal experience.
- Engagement: Members must prepare and participate regularly.
- Attendance: Absence from two consecutive sessions may lead to reassignment to another group (within 4 weeks).
- Commitment: Participation is expected for a minimum of 6 months.
6. Term and Termination 6.1 Membership is ongoing and renews automatically according to the billing cycle (e.g., monthly or annually), unless terminated in accordance with the conditions specified below.
6.2 Monthly memberships may be terminated by the Member at any time during the current billing cycle. Upon termination, the membership remains active until the end of the current billing period and will not renew thereafter.
Members with annual memberships must submit a cancellation notice at least 30 days prior to the end of the 12-month term. If no notice is given, the membership will automatically renew for an additional 12-month period under the same terms. Cancellations can be submitted via the online portal (e.g., Stripe) or by email.
6.3 pon valid termination, the membership ends at the end of the current paid period. No refund shall be issued for periods during which the service was substantially delivered.
6.4 Both parties may terminate for cause, including material breach or insolvency
7. Use of Services 7.1 Membership rights are limited to the Member and are non-transferable without Organization’s consent.
7.2 Unused rights expire at the end of each billing period. The Organization is not obligated to prompt usage.
7.3 Public event access may, at the sole discretion of the Organization, be granted to non-members on an invitation-only basis. Such participation is limited to the specific event for which the invitation is issued and does not confer any form of membership status, ongoing access to member services, or entitlement to future participation in other events or services. Non-members remain subject to the Organization’s code of conduct and event policies during such participation.
8. Content and Intellectual Property8.1 Members remain responsible for all content submitted. Content must comply with applicable laws and avoid infringing third-party rights.
8.2 Members grant the Organization a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use, display, and distribute their content for operating the platform.
8.3 Organization reserves the right to remove content that violates these terms or is otherwise inappropriate.
8.4 Member-submitted feedback or suggestions may be used freely without compensation.
9. Data Protection and Matchmaking 9.1 The Organization processes personal data for the purpose of matchmaking, community interaction, and event facilitation.
9.2 Data may be shared with members, experts, or partners with legitimate interest, limited to what is necessary. Members may object under GDPR Art. 21.
The legal basis for such data processing is the Organization’s legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, namely the effective facilitation of matchmaking, business networking, and targeted communication among Members and relevant stakeholders (e.g., experts, speakers, or sponsors). Members may object to such processing at any time with future effect pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR.
9.3 Full privacy terms are available at https://fittechclub.com/privacy.
10. Liability of the Organization10.1 The Organization is not liable for minor technical issues or temporary outages.
10.2 No liability is accepted for event delays or force majeure (e.g., strikes, legal orders, acts of God).
10.3 In case of data loss, the Organization is not liable unless caused by willful misconduct. Members are advised to back up their own data.
10.4 The Organization’s liability is limited to willful intent or gross negligence, except in cases of personal injury or violation of essential contractual obligations (cardinal duties).
10.5 If a service component is removed, Organization will reduce fees or offer equivalent services. If the entire membership service is discontinued, remaining fees will be refunded pro rata.
10.6 Membership Termination by Organization (Closure)
In the event that the Organization discontinues its services under Section 10.6, it may offer substitute compensation ("Rank 1") in the form of transferable services, digital content, networking access, or similar benefits of equal or greater value to the remaining membership period.
The Member shall be informed of the substitute option and may choose to accept it within a reasonable period (e.g., 14 days from notification).
Only if the Member declines or does not respond to the substitute offer shall a monetary pro rata refund ("Rank 2") be issued.
Acceptance of the substitute compensation constitutes full settlement of the Organization’s obligations under Section 10.6.
In the event that the Organization permanently discontinues its services (e.g., through closure, liquidation, or insolvency), any upfront payments for time periods in which services can no longer be provided shall be refunded pro rata temporis.
Refunds are calculated based on the number of full unused billing cycles remaining at the time of closure, unless the services have already been substantially delivered as defined in Section 5.4.
If the primary functions and benefits of the Membership were accessible to the Member for a substantial portion of the initial term (e.g., more than 50%), the Organization reserves the right to limit or deny pro rata refunds, provided such limitation does not conflict with applicable commercial laws.
11. Final provisions11.1 These Terms replace all prior agreements regarding the subject matter.
11.2 Any changes must be in writing. Fax or email copies are acceptable.
11.3 If any clause is invalid, the rest shall remain in force. The parties agree to replace invalid provisions with valid ones reflecting the original intent.
11.4 Disputes shall be resolved amicably. If unsuccessful, disputes shall be subject to binding arbitration in Munich, Germany. Exceptions apply to intellectual property claims.
