This non profit company is organizer of the Festival Fantazie, PragoFFest, and other activities. FFestivaly z.s. runs these events alongside Active Radio s.r.o. and its No Limits team, which has organised hundreds of various events.
The sale of photographs and autographs with guests at actual Comic-Con is facilitated by the sale of vouchers with a unique code (hereafter referred to as “Vouchers”). Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. take responsibility for this sale, and its headquarters are on Bílkova 855/19, Staré Město, 110 00 Praha 1, IČ 08268690.
A. General information
1. These general terms and cancellation conditions (hereafter referred to as “Sales conditions”) set the rules for the purchase of vouchers for photography and autographs at actual Comic-Con Prague. This purchase will take place on the Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. online shop, which can be found using the link http://shop.comicon.cz. By conducting a purchase, you agree to these Sales conditions and promise to follow them.
2. By purchasing vouchers, you are required to respect the Rules of Participation at Comic-Con Prague / Comic-Con Junior and the Rules for visitors at O2 universum / BVV pavilion E, which is where Comic-Con Prague / Comic Con Junior will take place in dates announced on the websites and social networks of both Comic-Cons.
3. As organisers, we reserve the right to change guests, the event program, dates, and the location of the event. By carrying out this purchase, you take this right into consideration.
4. Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. is in no way responsible for the validity and legitimacy of vouchers purchased outside of the aforementioned online shop. Purchased vouchers must be safely stored in any form, never openly show them and exhibit them. If you decide to publish them, you risk someone else abusing the voucher code. This may prevent you from gaining the product that you ordered at actual Comic-Con.
5. As part of the experience, you will obtain a gif: either a photograph or an autograph.
B. Purchase of Vouchers
1. Vouchers are sold solely in electronic form, which is sent to customers’ email addresses through the internet.
2. The prices of individual vouchers are given on Comic-Con Prague / Comic-Con Junior website, and the definitive prices can be found on the online store. Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. reserves the right to change the prices.
3. The type and amount of vouchers are determined by Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. in relation to the capacity of the event and its guests. We will not sell more vouchers than the venue will permit.
4. The voucher is not enough to ensure the desired experience can go ahead. A valid ticket to actual Comic-Con for your chosen day is also required.
5. The price of the voucher consists of the price of the experience, whether it be taking a photograph or autograph, and VAT. The price includes a physical record of your experience: a photograph or an autograph. Should your purchase of a voucher require the photograph or autograph to be sent to a certain address, Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. will add the cost of transferring the voucher to the overall cost (due to packing and postage costs). Vouchers will not be sent using cash on delivery.
6. Due to paragraph 1837j of the civil code, you may not rescind your purchase of the voucher, as stipulated by paragraph 1829 of the civil code. This means that you cannot rescind your purchase from the contract for a period of 14 days without given reason (this is otherwise given with other online purchases). The reason for this is that in this case, the contract refers to the use of spare time and other added activities (tickets to actual Comic-Con allow participation in photograph and autograph sessions, with a valid voucher). Moreover, the activity occurs on a certain date or time period. Therefore, the law does not give the customer permission to rescind the contract in the aforementioned way.
7. Vouchers for photography and autographs at actual Comic-Con are not primarily meant to be re-sold or touted. Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. sells vouchers to people who are interested in participating in photo or autograph sessions at actual Comic-Con. It does not, however, wish for the vouchers to become items to be sold on second-hand. We must warn you, therefore, that measures may be taken with the aim of preventing the unwanted re-selling of vouchers.
8. Practical conditions and information:
- Purchased vouchers are transferrable to another person only before use.
- Vouchers permit entry to photo sessions and autograph sessions until the venue’s capacity has been reached. This is set by the organisers. Vouchers are not a ticket to actual Comic-Con. They must be accompanied by a purchased ticket.
- Vouchers will be exchanged for vouchers relating to a photography or autograph session for a specific time frame on the Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. website during 1-2 weeks before actual Comic-Con, in accordance with the capacity of the venue. If the buyer does not exchange their voucher for a time-allocated voucher, the organiser will assign a time for photographs or autographs and will send the code for the time-allocated voucher by e-mail.
- Vouchers for a specific time allocation will be scanned upon entry to photo sessions and autograph sessions at actual Comic-Con. The QR code can be scanned only once, afterwards, the ticket becomes void for that given day and it is impossible to use it again.
C. Cancellation conditions
1. In the event that vouchers or time-allocated vouchers do not arrive by e-mail after the time allocation has been completed, please contact shop@comiccon.cz.
2. You cannot request a refund for any vouchers for photographs or autographs at Comic-Con Prague / Comic-Con Junior that have not been purchased in the Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. online store.

4. In the event that actual Comic-Con is cancelled or a guest cancels their participation in actual Comic-Con, the buyer has the right to a full refund for their purchase. The buyer does not possess the right to a refund for postage and packaging costs.
5. In the event that the conditions for entry into the O2 universum building / BVV Pavillion E are not upheld, the right to a refund for the purchase of vouchers becomes void.
6. Purchased vouchers are non-transferrable. In the event that they are damaged, ruined, lost or stolen, your old ticket will not be replaced with a new one and you will not be compensated.

D. Final provisions
1. If any of the provisions of these General conditions were to be voided, the legitimacy of other conditions remains untouched.
2. In the event that a consumer dispute should occur between Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. and you, the consumer, regarding the sale of a voucher for photographs or autographs at actual Comic-Con (organised by Comic-Con Prague s.r.o. or in relation to the organisation or progression of the event), which cannot be agreed mutually, you can apply for an out-of-court settlement for such a dispute at the Czech Trade Inspection, Central Inspection’s ADR department, situated on Štěpánská 15, 120 00 Prague 2.
