Termination can be made in written or documentary form using the Platform or by sending an email to wyjscia@bizky.ai. This provision does not affect separate provisions contained in these Terms and Conditions.

  3. If the Participant’s business venture exceeds the scope of testing the business idea, particularly due to its significant financial turnover, the Organizer may terminate the agreement with a one-month notice period. The statement of termination is preceded by an analysis of the Project’s activities, which does not preclude the possibility of individual arrangements between the Organizer and the Participant regarding their participation in the Bizky Program.
  4. The Organizer’s termination of the agreement with the Participant occurs with a one-month notice period, effective at the end of the month. In any case where the Project’s liquidation period is longer than the notice period specified above, the Parties agree that, without the need for additional actions, the notice period is extended until the completion of the Project’s liquidation.
  5. On the date of the termination statement or the occurrence of another circumstance causing the termination of the Agreement, the Parties proceed to liquidate the Project. The Participant is obliged to carry out settlements and the liquidation of the Project with the participation and in agreement with the Organizer’s Representative, in accordance with the detailed Project settlement procedure, which will be provided through electronic communication channels, including the following obligations.

  9. After the liquidation period of the Project, the value of the Project’s assets is calculated.
