Terms and Conditions

By participating in ChudartZ Collectibles events, you acknowledge, both as a visitor and as an exhibitor, that you have read, understood, and agree to the disclaimer, the general terms and conditions, the house rules, and the Privacy Policy. These documents are subject to change without prior notice. It is the participant's responsibility to regularly check for any changes. Changes with an impact will be announced in advance.

1. Registration and participation

  • Participation in the event, in any capacity (such as exhibitor, visitor, helper, participant, or employee), is only valid after successful registration and full payment of any registration fees.
  • By registering, the participant declares to the best of his knowledge and knowledge that all information provided is correct and complete. The participant accepts all responsibilities arising from participation in the event, including complying with the rules and taking the necessary precautions.
  • Registrations are always personal, even when made in the name of a company or organization, and cannot be transferred to third parties without the prior, express consent of the organization. The resale or transfer of stands, admission tickets, or other forms of participation is not permitted. In the event of a violation, the organization reserves the right to refuse access to the event.
  • The registration deadline is strictly adhered to.

2. Cancellation and refund policy

  • These cancellation conditions apply to exhibitors, visitors, ticket purchasers, workshop participants, accompanying persons, and other parties involved who have purchased a stand and/or admission ticket, as well as to all other forms of participation in the event.
  • In order to ensure that the event runs smoothly, is well organized, and is balanced, we apply the following cancellation policy. This takes into account the various stages of our preparations and the impact of cancellations on the overall organization.

Important: A fixed, non-refundable reservation and administration fee of € 12.50 is charged per reserved table. This fee covers the administrative processing of the reservation and the logistical provision of the table, any chairs provided, and the electricity point. This fee is never refunded, regardless of the timing or reason for cancellation, and is always deducted from any refunds in accordance with the cancellation policy.

  • More than 45 days before the start of the event

    If canceled more than 45 days before the event, 100% of the amount paid will be refunded, with the exception of the fixed, non-refundable reservation and administration fee of € 12.50 per table.

    Although we can usually still find a replacement at this stage, every reservation incurs administrative and logistical costs from the moment of registration. Therefore, the fixed, non-refundable reservation and administration fee of € 12.50 per table always remains due.

  • Between 45 and 30 days before the start of the event

    If canceled during this period, 75% of the amount paid will be refunded, with the exception of the fixed, non-refundable reservation and administration fee of € 12.50 per table.

    From 45 days before the event, a large part of the practical and logistical preparations have already been started: layout of the hall, any communication to participants and visitors, design of promotional material, layout of the floor plan, and so on. Cancellations already entail extra work, costs, and rescheduling.

  • Between 30 and 15 days before commencement

    If canceled during this period, 50% of the amount paid will be refunded, with the exception of the fixed, non-refundable reservation and administration fee of € 12.50 per table.

    At this point, most costs (such as printing, reservations, and communication) have been finalized. It is also becoming considerably more difficult to find a suitable replacement, as the schedules of candidates on the waiting list are often already full.

  • Within 15 days before the event

    No refund is possible.

    Cancellations at this late stage have a direct impact on the quality and image of the event. Empty places in the hall are noticeable to visitors, disrupt the balance between participants, and can detract from the professional appearance of the whole. In the short term, it is also virtually impossible to find replacements or communicate changes.

Exception in case of force majeure

Of course, we take into account situations of force majeure, such as serious illness, an accident, or the death of a family member. In such cases, we ask you to inform us as soon as possible so that we can work together to find a suitable solution.

Please note: Even in the event of force majeure, the fixed, non-refundable reservation and administration fee of € 12.50 per table (including chairs and electricity point) remains due and will not be refunded.

3. Rules and code of conduct

  • We ask all participants to behave and be respectful of fellow participants and the environment. It is important that everyone adheres to the applicable house rules to ensure a safe and enjoyable atmosphere. Violation of these rules may result in appropriate action, such as removal from the event.
  • The organization reserves the right to exclude participants who do not comply with the rules from further participation in the event or other events organized by the organizer.

4. Use of materials

  • Damage to the venue or equipment by a participant will be repaired at the participant's expense.

5. Responsibility, insurance, liability and legal assistance

  • The organization is not responsible for loss, theft, or damage to personal belongings of participants (visitors, exhibitors).
  • It is the responsibility of exhibitors and visitors to take the necessary precautions to protect their goods against theft, damage, or other forms of loss. The organization can never be held liable for this.
  • Participation in or attendance at an event is entirely at your own risk. The organization is not liable for any injuries or accidents, unless these are directly attributable to intent or gross negligence on the part of the organizer. Participants may be able to claim on their own insurance, such as liability or accident insurance, to cover damage they have caused or suffered.
  • The organization is only liable for events (which are due to intent or gross negligence on the part of the organizer) during the event itself, but never for incidents on the way to or back from the event.
  • Participants should be aware of their own physical and mental condition and act responsibly.
  • The organization reserves the right to change the event, the daily schedule or other aspects of the event if necessary, with or without prior notice, depending on external factors over which the organization does not have full control.
  • In case of force majeure (e.g. pandemics, natural disasters), the event may be postponed or cancelled without a refund of the registration fee.

6. Transactions & Purchases

6.1 Sales & Swaps

Participation in the event may include transactions such as the sale, purchase, or barter of goods. Participants are responsible for their own transactions and must ensure that they comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

For transactions whose value, in the opinion of the seller or the organization, cannot be regarded as a normal everyday purchase for a minor, the minor must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or other responsible adult.

6.4 Returns & Complaints

Returns or complaints about purchased goods must be handled according to the terms and conditions of the respective seller. The organization of the event is not responsible for returns, exchanges or complaints, if they are not involved in the transaction.

Each participant is solely and fully responsible for complying with all applicable legal and fiscal obligations arising from his or her sales activities at the event. This includes, but is not limited to, obligations regarding taxes, VAT, a company or VAT number, permits, and other legal formalities.

ChudartZ Collectibles acts solely as the organizer of the event and can in no way be held liable for any infringements or negligence by participants.

By registering, the participant declares that the goods offered and the manner of sale comply with applicable Belgian and European legislation.

The organizer reserves the right to refuse access to the event, or to remove from the event without any right to a refund, participants who, in its judgment, carry out commercial activities without the required legal formalities, or who offer goods that conflict with the law or the house rules.

7. Privacy and use of imagery

  • By participating in an event and/or entering an event, you agree that you may be photographed or filmed and that these images may be used for promotional purposes without any compensation.
  • Personal data collected during registration will be used exclusively for the organization of the event and will not be shared with third parties, except in cases specified in the privacy policy.
