5.2. The PURCHASER shall be informed, prior to completion of the purchase, of any specific conditions applicable to the relevant ticket type and Theme Park facilities, including age, height, accompanying-person, operating-time, health and safety requirements. Where the TICKET USER is unable to use a particular activity or facility because they do not meet objectively determinable admission or usage requirements that were clearly and visibly communicated prior to purchase, this shall not, subject to mandatory provisions of applicable legislation, under any circumstances give rise to a right to a partial or full refund of the ticket price. The PURCHASER expressly acknowledges and undertakes to accept this condition in advance.

7. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL
7.1. Daily Tickets, Evening Tickets and similar Theme Park admission tickets issued for a specific date, time or session constitute services relating to leisure activities for a specified date or period and are therefore subject to the exception to the right of withdrawal set forth under Article 15, paragraph 1(g) of the Regulation on Distance Contracts. Accordingly, the PURCHASER does not have a fourteen-day right of withdrawal in respect of such tickets.
7.2. In respect of tickets or cards that are not linked to a specific date, time or session and that may be used on different dates within their validity period, whether a right of withdrawal is available shall be separately stated on the relevant sales page, taking into account the nature of the relevant ticket or card, its validity period and the exceptions set forth under Article 15 of the Regulation on Distance Contracts. If the relevant ticket or card does not fall within an exception set forth under Article 15 of the Regulation, the PURCHASER may exercise the right of withdrawal within fourteen days from the date on which the Agreement is concluded. If performance of the service commences before the expiry of the withdrawal period upon the PURCHASER’s express request and consent, the applicable statutory exceptions to the right of withdrawal shall apply.

7.4. This Article shall not prejudice the PURCHASER’s rights arising under Law No. 6502 and applicable legislation in the event that the service is not performed or is not duly performed.
8. CANCELLATION, DATE CHANGES AND REFUNDS

8.2. Where the SERVICE PROVIDER provides cancellation, change or alternative-date usage options for certain ticket types, the scope, conditions and applicable period of such options shall be separately stated on the sales page prior to the purchase of the ticket.
8.3. Unless expressly stated otherwise on the sales page, the ticket price shall not be refunded due to a change of preference by the PURCHASER, failure to attend the Theme Park, failure to use the ticket within its validity date or period, or failure of the TICKET USER to meet the objective ticket usage conditions clearly communicated prior to purchase. The PURCHASER’s rights arising from mandatory provisions of applicable legislation are reserved.
8.4. If performance of the admission service subject to this Agreement becomes impossible, the SERVICE PROVIDER shall notify the PURCHASER in writing or through a permanent data storage medium within three days from the date on which the SERVICE PROVIDER becomes aware of such impossibility and shall refund all payments collected to the PURCHASER no later than fourteen days from the date of notification.

9.3. If any activity, facility, show or service within the Theme Park becomes temporarily or permanently unavailable, is suspended or cancelled due to maintenance, repair, adverse weather conditions, technical malfunction or operational decisions of the SERVICE PROVIDER, the PURCHASER may not claim a partial or full refund of the ticket price. The SERVICE PROVIDER does not guarantee that the facilities within the Theme Park will operate continuously or at full capacity.
10. FORCE MAJEURE
Natural disasters, fire, epidemics, war, acts of terrorism, strikes, lockouts, decisions of public authorities, extraordinary weather conditions, infrastructure or power outages, and other similar unforeseeable events that occur beyond the control of the Parties and cannot reasonably be prevented shall be deemed force majeure events.
If, due to a force majeure event, performance of the service subject to this Agreement becomes impossible on the agreed date or within the agreed period, Articles 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6 shall apply.
Where the force majeure event affects only certain activities or facilities temporarily and the general admission service to the Theme Park continues to be provided, Article 9.3 shall apply.
