acceptance of a written quotation;

electronic confirmation;

or, in individual cases, the signing of a separate service agreement.

The Service Provider is entitled to withdraw its quotation until it has been accepted.

These General Terms and Conditions form an integral part of the individual contract.

3. Nature of the Service

The Service Provider provides professional consultancy, documentation preparation and compliance support.

The activities of the Service Provider do not constitute the exercise of official authority and do not replace accounting, tax advisory, legal representation or regulatory decision-making activities.

The Service Provider does not guarantee:

  • eligibility for subsidies or financial support;
  • the successful outcome of a grant or tender application;
  • the absence of administrative penalties or fines;
  • the payment of any subsidy or financial support.

The Customer is required to:

  • provide accurate, complete and up-to-date information;
  • submit the requested documents within the specified deadline;
  • consider the professional recommendations and make the necessary decisions.

The Service Provider shall not be liable for consequences arising from inaccurate, incomplete or delayed information supplied by the Customer.

The Parties' obligation to cooperate is governed by Section 6:62 of the Hungarian Civil Code.

5. Fees and Payment Terms

By ordering and paying for virtual services available through the Website or Online Store, including in particular the Basic and Pro Packages and tickets for online webinars, a distance service contract is concluded between the Parties.

Considering the nature of the service, the resulting legal relationship qualifies as a mandate-type legal relationship and is governed by the applicable Hungarian legislation, in particular the provisions of the Hungarian Civil Code relating to mandate agreements.

Submitting an order through the Online Store constitutes an offer involving a payment obligation, which the Service Provider accepts by confirming the order. The contract is concluded when the confirmation is sent.

For purchases made through the Online Store, the service fee may be paid by:

  • online bank card payment;
  • bank transfer;
  • or any other method indicated in the Online Store.

By paying the fee, the Customer acknowledges that the provision of the service may commence and that the contractual relationship described above is thereby established between the Parties. The Customer expressly consents to the Service Provider commencing performance immediately after payment. The Customer acknowledges that, in the case of digital services, the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal may be lost once performance has commenced.

Following the free consultation requested through the form available on the Website, the service fee shall be determined in an individual written quotation. Unless otherwise agreed, the payment deadline is eight days.

In the event of late payment, the Service Provider may charge default interest pursuant to Section 6:155 of the Hungarian Civil Code and, where applicable, a statutory debt recovery cost allowance.

If the payment delay exceeds 30 days, the Service Provider is entitled to suspend the provision of services.

The Service Provider shall not be liable for:

  • loss of profit;
  • indirect or consequential damage;
  • losses arising from the repayment of subsidies;
  • administrative penalties or fines.

The limitation of liability shall not apply to intentional damage, in accordance with Section 6:152 of the Hungarian Civil Code.

7. Force Majeure

The Service Provider shall not be liable for circumstances arising from unavoidable events beyond its control, including changes in legislation, the unavailability of regulatory systems or natural disasters.

8. Confidentiality and Trade Secrets

The Parties are required to treat all data and information obtained during their cooperation as trade secrets.

The protection of trade secrets is governed by Act LIV of 2018 on the Protection of Trade Secrets.

The obligation of confidentiality shall remain in force after the termination of the contract.
