Additional Terms for Premium Add-ons

A. Additional Terms for Premium Add-ons

Premium membership may be enhanced by add-ons offering additional benefits.

These Additional Terms for Premium Add-ons apply when a user purchases an Add-on alongside his/her Premium membership.

The Terms and Conditions for Usage of the XING Service also apply.

 

1. Booking, term and expiry of the Add-on

  1. Add-ons may only be booked if a user already has Premium membership at the time of booking an Add-on. When booking an Add-on, the user enters into a second, additional contract.
  2. Upon expiry of the minimum usage period booked by the user, the Add-on and Premium membership renew automatically for an unlimited period (with monthly billing periods) unless the Add-on and/or Premium membership are cancelled by the user or XING by the applicable deadlines.
  3. The user and XING may cancel an Add-on and/or Premium membership without cause at any time to the end of the minimum usage period or current billing period. Terminations can be submitted by letter, fax or e-mail. The user may also use the contact form or online cancellation process to cancel an Add-on and/or Premium membership.
  4. If only the Add-on is cancelled, Premium membership and any other Add-ons that have not been cancelled remain in place.

Please note: 

The previous terms continue to apply to contracts concluded before 1 March 2022:

  1. Upon expiry of the minimum usage period purchased by the user, the Add-on and Premium membership respectively renew for a renewal period of the same duration, up to a maximum of 12 months, unless the Add-on and/or Premium membership are cancelled by the user or XING by the applicable deadlines.
  2. The user and XING may cancel an Add-on and/or Premium membership without stating reasons, subject to a notice period of three (3) weeks; cancellation is then effective upon elapse of the minimum usage period purchased during the registration process or at the end of a renewal period as applicable.

2. Fees

  1. Fees for the entire duration or respective billing period are due immediately in advance.
  2. XING reserves the right to reasonably increases the fee with effect from the start of a new billing period. Prices may only be increased once per calendar year. In such cases, XING shall inform the user at least six (6) weeks prior to expiry of a billing period to which the fee increase applies. A user may object to the fee increase within three (3) weeks of notification via the contact form, letter, fax or e-mail. The user’s submission of an objection is tantamount to cancelling the Add-on, meaning that said Add-on will expire at the end of the existing minimum usage period or current billing period.

 

3. Applicability of the Terms and Conditions for Usage of the XING Service

The Terms and Conditions for Usage of the XING Service apply in addition.

In issuing such reimbursements, we use the same payment method you used in the original transaction unless explicitly agreed with you otherwise; in no case will we charge fees for such a refund.

If you requested to begin the performance of services during the withdrawal period, you shall pay us an amount which is in proportion to what has been provided until you have communicated us your withdrawal from this contract, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.

Exclusion of right of withdrawal:

The right of withdrawal does not exist if, when entering into a legal transaction, you predominantly act in exercise of your trade, business or profession and are therefore deemed to be an entrepreneur (Section 14 BGB).

You expressly agree that we will start to render the service before the end of the withdrawal period.
