6. Individual contracts are established, when the Publisher, having received all necessary data, confirms the order in writing (by letter, fax or e-mail) within 5 (five) working days with identical content to the order. A call to make up for potential missing documents does not qualify as confirmation.
7. The Subscriber must provide ad material ready for press with the subscription, or if this is not possible by the deadline set in the confirmation, by the submission deadline at the latest, unless the material is ordered from an agency.

3. The Subscriber may order a larger quantity of ads based on the media offer or the tariff chart for a given year or a longer period after the Publisher’s consent at a reduced price. Ordering a quantity that makes reductions possible can require that the Advertiser must provide the Publisher with financial security. In such a case even the price of the first ad and other services can be paid at a reduced price. If the The Subscriber partially cancels the ordered quantity for a given year, the reduction will be lost and the The Subscriber must make up for the missing amounts even after previously paid ads that had been sold at a reduced price.
4. The same calculation must be made, if the Publisher realizes at the yearend summary that the Subscriber did not publish as many ads as (or didn’t take as many other services) as they had undertaken to get a reduced price.
5. The Publisher maintains the right to change its prices during the year including the reduced rates after annual agreements. If ad prices change, the Publisher must send the new prices to the Subscriber in writing a minimum of 8 (eight) days before they become effective, as long as this affects the Subscriber and to publish the new prices in the Publisher’s offices, website and in relevant publications.
6. For separate agreements concluded before the publication of changes, the Publisher will apply the old prices, without respect to ads’ publication date.
7. The Publisher will offer the Subscriber the opportunity to reserve ad spaces, order publications or commission the organization of events for the next business year respecting all required formalities up to a date, before which the prices of the old tariff chart will be applied. If the Subscriber does not fully use the reserved services during the business year and the difference is more than 10 (ten) percent of the previously agreed services, then the Subscriber loses the reduced rate and the Publisher may apply the tariff chart prices of the given year.
8. If the ordered ad or publication fails to be published due to missed submission deadline or late delivery of products that should have been included as an insert, the Subscriber will be obliged to pay the full price of the separate agreement.
V. Cancellation
1. The Subscriber has the right to cancel ordered services up to the deadline indicated in the Publisher’s confirmation (cancellation deadline) without further legal consequences or they can submit an order to have the ad published at a later time.

If the ad is cancelled after the material submission deadline, the Subscriber has to pay the full advertising amount, even if they want no advertising material to be published.
The deadline of material submission will be the latest possible deadline, therefore any costs arising from late material submission will be covered by the Subscriber. The Publisher will also charge the full amount of the ordered ads, if no material is submitted by deadline, thus the publication of the ordered ad becomes impossible.
VI. Payment conditions
1. The Publisher will send the invoice to the Subscriber, unless agreed differently in another agreement, with a payment deadline of 8 (eight) days following the publication or the performance of the service. The Publisher will add a key sample to the invoice. In case of inserts only, orders for a full number of copies will be escorted by a key sample containing an insert.

In the case of a new Subscriber (i.e. a Subscriber that did not publish ads in any publication of the Publisher in the 12 (twelve) months prior to order day or did not require the Publisher’s services in the 12 (twelve) months prior to order day) and Subscribers who (either directly or indirectly through an advertising service provider or advertising agency) had late payment in the 12 months prior to order day, the Publisher has the right to set the condition of pre-payment, which the the Subscriber must perform by the payment deadline of the invoice.
4. In case of no payment, the Publisher is not obliged to take the order and already existing special contracts can be terminated with immediate effect. The Publisher is not obliged to make efforts to have the ad published, until the price of the ad is paid.
VII. Rules of responsibility
1. The Subscriber is responsible for all mistakes or damages that originate from the bad quality or faults of original materials (illustrations, graphics, logos) provided by it.

If the proof is not successful, the communicating party will take the responsibility.
9. If the regulations of the current Terms and Conditions or the regulations of the agreement that was based on the current Terms and Conditions become invalid and/or unadoptable, parties must take all reasonable measures to replace the invalid or unadoptable regulation by a valid and adaptable regulation that resembles the invalid or unadoptable regulation best in its commercial, business, financial or legal effect. All this has to be carried out to maintain the validity and adaptability of the current agreement. If the invalid and/or unadoptable regulation cannot be replaced, or parties cannot agree on the content of the replacement regulation, the invalid and unadoptable part must be separated from the agreement and the remaining part must be considered to be obliging, as if the invalid and/or unadoptable regulations would not have been part of the agreement, supposing that the rights of parties are not seriously violated due to the invalidity and/or inadaptability of the regulations. If the goal of the current agreement becomes doubtful due to invalidity and/or inadaptability, then invalidity and inadaptability will affect the whole agreement.
