* For room cancellations received from 14 March 2026, one (1) night of the room rate will be charged to your credit card.

* In case of cancellation or No-Show, Austropa Interconvention is authorized to charge your credit card with the applicable cancellation fees.

Group bookings (5 or more rooms) are subject to a separate contract and specific terms and conditions. Please contact Austropa Interconvention directly for further information at ean@austropa.at

If you book a trip, accommodation, or any other service, we collect the necessary details directly from you or – if you are not making the booking yourself – indirectly from third parties (e.g., your employer, intermediary travel agents, friends or family members, or other organizers). This includes all information required to complete your travel arrangements, such as arrival and departure dates and locations, airline, hotel, or car rental details.
We may also collect special categories of personal data in order to provide accessibility services, dietary preferences, or other requested services. Where required, we may also need passport details from travellers. If we arrange travel services for accompanying persons, we may collect the same categories of data from them. Please ensure that you forward this information to any individuals whose data you provide as part of a booking.

Your customer data is stored in your travel or guest profile, where we retain all information necessary for processing your booking and delivering our services. You may also provide additional information in your profile, such as frequent flyer credentials, regulatory identification numbers, or emergency contact details.

If personal data is not transmitted by the data subject themselves but by another representative of the customer, the customer is obliged to inform the data subject about the transfer of their data to Ruefa GmbH as well as the onward transmission by Ruefa GmbH to the recipient categories described in the Privacy Statement.

Please find here our complete Privacy Statement.

Austropa Interconvention acts solely as an agent and cannot be held responsible for any loss, injury, or damage to persons or property, regardless of the cause. The liability of the companies or individuals providing transportation or other services remains unaffected. Austropa Interconvention cannot be held liable for the partial or complete cancellation of the congress, or for any change in its date. In the event that the congress is cancelled or rescheduled by the congress organiser, Austropa Interconvention shall not be liable for any costs incurred or disadvantages suffered, including consequential losses, resulting from such cancellation or change of date.

Both parties shall be released from their contractual obligations under this Agreement in cases of “force majeure.” Events deemed to constitute force majeure include: war, occupation, riot, strike, complete breakdown of public utilities, and complete suspension of air traffic (except for weather-related or strike-related reasons), provided that the hotel and its operations are directly affected.

In the event of a cancellation or change of date of the congress, as well as in cases of force majeure, all expenses already incurred—particularly processing and administrative costs—shall be charged to the company/contractor.

The accommodation provider may offer guests suitable alternative accommodation (of equivalent quality), provided that this is reasonable for the guests—especially when the difference is minor and objectively justified. Such justification may include situations where rooms become unusable, previously accommodated guests extend their stay, the property is overbooked, or other important operational circumstances make a change necessary. Any additional expenses arising from such substitute accommodation shall be borne by the hotel.

For all disputes arising from this Agreement, both contracting parties expressly submit to the court having subject-matter jurisdiction in Vienna, which shall be the exclusive venue. Austrian law shall apply.
