4. Clients who have been excluded from the seminar/course/program due to insufficient performance, especially in the event they fail examinations, submit inadequate seminar work or whose thesis does not meet minimum requirements, are not entitled to receive any refund of the tuition fees paid (online study material and examination or thesis fees).

Art. 6 Reservation of Title

Products supplied to the client shall remain the property of AfIMPP until the client has settled in full all claims.

Art. 7 Warranty for Defects and Liability

1. If the service/product sold by AfIMPP is defective within AfIMPP’s liability, AfIMPP has the right to choose to either correct this defect or to issue a replacement.
2. If AfIMPP is not willing or able to correct a recognized defect or to issue a replacement for a recognized defect, or if AfIMPP is responsible for undue delay in correcting or replacing a defective service or product, or if correction or replacement fails for any other reason, the client has the right to choose to either cancel the contract or to demand an appropriate reduction in price. In the event that an e-colloquium, which is proposed by the lecturer on certain data (from-to) via online conferencing software, cannot be carried out as a result of the exclusive fault of AfIMPP., The customer can either take part in the replacement date or a subsequent date or demand the reimbursement of the purchase price.
3. Any further claims on the part of the client — for whichever legal reasons — are precluded insofar as they are not the result of the stipulations set forth herein. AfIMPP therefore assumes no liability for defects that occur on products or services other than those sold. Specifically, AfIMPP assumes no liability for any profit lost or for any other property loss on the part of the client. AfIMPP assumes neither responsibility nor liability in the event that the client makes any decisions or engages in any action based on any part of the website or on the acquisition of products purchased from AfIMPP. As far as AfIMPP liability is precluded or limited, this applies equally to the personal liability of employees, representatives and agents.
4. In the event of a negligent breach of contract on the part of AfIMPP, its obligation to render compensation for property damages or personal injury is limited to the typical extent of the damage.

Art. 8 Applicable Law and Place of Jurisdiction

Ghanaian law is applicable for all products and services provided by AfIMPP with the exclusion of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
