Terms
Reading the site is free and needs no account. These terms mostly matter if you become a Knight.
1. Who you are dealing with
Medieval Booker (medievalbooker.com) is run by Nemanja Kovacevic. "We" and "us" below mean exactly that. Write to hello@medievalbooker.com about anything on this page.
2. The site is free
Every festival page, city guide, place and article is free to read, without an account, and stays that way. Nothing on the public site is reserved for paying members.
3. Festival information: check before you travel
We are an independent guide. We do not organise any festival, sell tickets or take bookings. We check dates against the organiser's own publications and mark a date "expected" until the organiser confirms it, but organisers move, shorten and cancel events, sometimes late. Always confirm dates, opening hours and tickets on the official site before you book travel. We are not responsible for travel, accommodation or ticket costs arising from a changed or cancelled event, or from an error on our pages, except where the law says we must be.
4. The Knight membership
Knight is an optional paid membership at $4.99 / month, or $49 a year. It is two things, for as long as you are a Knight:
- following the festivals you care about, from the moment you join, with a countdown to each and an update on your account when their dates are announced, confirmed, moved or cancelled;
- a weekly letter by email, with a piece of medieval history, guides and advice for individual festivals, and places worth visiting in European cities, chosen by us. Every letter is kept in a library on your account.
The newsletter is written by people. We aim for one issue a week; if a week is missed we say so in the next one. Which festivals and cities a given issue covers is an editorial decision.
Knight is a digital subscription to information. It does not include travel, tickets, accommodation or bookings of any kind, and we do not arrange them.
5. Your account
An account is free and commits you to nothing. A membership belongs to an account, and an account to one person. Give an email address you actually read, because that is where everything is sent. Keep your password to yourself; tell us if you think somebody else has it. You can sign in with Google instead of a password; we then receive your address from Google and nothing else.
A festival's link to its organiser's own site asks for a free account first, and shows the Knight membership before the site opens; you can go on to the site without taking it. Every date, map, guide and article stays open without an account.
6. Payment, renewal and price
Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Polar (Polar Software, Inc.), the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Polar takes the payment, handles the tax due where you live, issues your receipts and invoices, and answers questions about a charge. Its checkout shows the final price, tax included, before you pay, and its own buyer terms apply to the purchase.
The membership renews automatically every month or every year, whichever you chose, at the price you joined at until you cancel. If we ever change the price for existing members, we will email you at least 30 days before it takes effect, and you can cancel before it does.
First month free. A new membership starts with a free period of that length. Polar takes your card details at the checkout and charges nothing until the period ends; the checkout shows the date. Cancel before that date and you pay nothing. If you do not cancel, the first payment is taken then, and the membership renews as described above. The free start is for new members, once.
7. Cancelling
Cancel whenever you like from your account page; it takes two clicks and no conversation. You remain a Knight until the end of the period you have paid for, and you are not charged again. Refunds are covered by the refund policy.
8. What you may do with what we send
Member emails and guides are for your own use. Forward an issue to a friend who might like it; do not republish them, resell them or feed them into a product of your own. Everything on the public site is ours or is used under the licence shown next to it (photo credits are on each page).
9. When we may end a membership
We may close an account that is used to abuse the site, to resell member material, or to defraud us or Polar. If we close a paid membership for any reason other than your misuse, we refund the unused part of the current period.
10. Our responsibility to you
We provide the site and the membership with reasonable care. We are not liable for losses we could not reasonably have foreseen, or for indirect losses such as travel costs (see section 3). Nothing in these terms limits any right you have under the consumer law of the country you live in, and nothing limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
11. Law
These terms are governed by the law of Serbia. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory rules of the country where you live, and you may bring a claim there.
12. Changes to these terms
When these terms change, the date below changes with them, and members are emailed about anything that affects what they pay or receive.
