They also apply to the free use of EGR’s online services by users (hereinafter also “Customer”).

(2) Online services are in particular online applications, cloud services and websites.

(3) These T&C OS shall apply exclusively. Any deviating, contradicting or supplementary terms and contractual conditions of Customer shall not become an integral part of the contract unless and to the extent EGR has consented to their application expressly and in writing. This consent requirement shall apply in each case, and in particular if EGR, being aware of Customer‘s terms and contractual conditions, renders services to such Customer without reservation.

(4) These T&C OS shall also apply if Customer uses the online services with which these GTC OS are provided.

(5) For the rest, the licence conditions of the manufacturer of the respective software and – if the software is installed in the server infrastructure of an external computer center – the contractual provision of such computer center shall apply.

II. Services

(1) EGR makes available to Costumer the online services in accordance with the usage rights mentioned in paragraph IV. hereof regarding the online use via Internet, via a data network or via an app. For this purpose, EGR will make available the online services, on a server infrastructure which can be reached by Customer via the Internet, the data network or the app. The procurement and maintenance of the system infrastructure required for the use of the online services (in particular hardware, operating system, software e.g. browser or app) are the responsibility of Customer. There is no obligation to provide a user manual for the online services and/or the software unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing.

(2) The user interface and/or service description describe exhaustively all functions and services of the online services and/or software if they are used in accordance with the contract. Public statements, praise or advertising do not constitute a statement of performance or quality.

(3) EGR undertakes, for the term of the contract, to maintain the online services, the software and the accessibility in accordance with paragraph VI. hereof. This obligation does not apply to free online services.

(4) The services mentioned in the paragraphs II., IV. and VI. hereof are exhaustive. Any further services are not part of the contract unless separately agreed.

III. Remuneration and Terms of Payment

The remuneration to be paid by Customer to EGR for services against payment and the terms of payment applicable thereto shall be specified separately for the respective services.

IV. Usage rights

(1) EGR grants Customer, for the term of the contract, a simple, non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable right for natural persons to use the online services and/or the software via the user interfaces for the purpose determined by EGR for such online service. Automated use is not permitted.

(2) The type and scope of the usage rights regarding online services and/or software of third parties made available by EGR to Customer are subject to the terms of use of such third parties, and such usage rights are limited to the term of the contract. EGR will make available to Customer, at Customer’s request, the terms of use of such third party.

(3) Customer must not allow third parties to integrate the online services into systems other than those of Customer.

(4) In the case of violations of the provisions of paragraph IV. (1) to (3) and of paragraph V. (5) and (6) hereof by Customer or by a third party which has been enabled by Customer to use the online services, the usage rights will be forfeited.

In such cases EGR has, in addition, the right to block the online services and/or the online access to the software immediately and without reminder.

V. Customer’s obligations

(1) Customer undertakes to provide any customary and appropriate cooperation required for Customer’s use of the online services and which is within his sphere of influence and/or responsibility.

In particular, EGR is not liable for the suitability, functionality and compatibility of Customer’s hardware and software.

(3) Customer is, in particular, obliged to adapt its systems, through which it accesses the online services, to the latest versions of the interface between the online services and the systems of Customer on its own responsibility and at its own cost. The adaptation of Customer’s systems to the new version shall be completed each time within six (6) months after the provision of the information and specifications regarding the interface. On expiry of this six month period, the reachability of the online services and/or the software is only guaranteed via the new version of the interface. EGR is not liable for damages that are the result of Customer’s failure to adapt its systems to the latest interface versions at all or in due time.

(4) Customer’s online access to the Internet and/or the contractually agreed data network as well as any costs incurred in connection therewith is Customer’s responsibility.

(5) Customer shall take appropriate precautions to protect its online access and the access to the online services against unauthorized access.

In particular, Customer shall refrain from retrieving or sending data in an automatized manner, e.g. via scripts, and thereby transferring data volumes and/or initiating calculation processes on servers exceeding those caused by users during normal use.

VI. Availability

(1) EGR guarantees 95 % reachability on a three month average for each calendar quarter of the online services from the server infrastructure of EGR and/or of the computer center to the transfer point into the public and/or the agreed data network. Not included in the calculation of reachability are hours during which the server cannot be reached due to technical or other problems which are not within EGR’s sphere of responsibility and influence (e.g. force majeure, natural disasters, strikes, industrial disputes, fault of third parties etc.)

(2) EGR has the right to restrict or to block access to online services and/or to the software if this is required due to technical changes, system maintenance, the safety of network operation, the maintenance of network integrity, in particular to avoid network disturbances of the online services, of the software or of saved data or if Customer does not fulfill its obligations mentioned in paragraph V. (5) and (6) hereof or if there is suspicion of a breach of such obligations.

(3) Unless otherwise agreed, the online services and the software will be made available for online use on a server infrastructure chosen by EGR.

(4) Free online services may be discontinued in whole or in part, permanently or temporarily, at any time.

The provisions hereof shall apply to the use of updates mutatis mutandis.

VIII. Data backup

(1) The backup of the data and their recovery in case of loss is Customer’s responsibility.

(2) Security and backup of the online services and of the software as well as the restoration of availability of the server infrastructure is EGR’s responsibility.

All rights to the content (e.g. texts, images, graphics, videos, sounds, animations) of the online services shall be held by EGR or the respective authors. These contents may only be used within the authorized use of the online services in accordance with paragraph IV. hereof or under the conditions of the respective author.

X. Trademark rights

The online services may contain names and trademarks that are protected by law. The rights to the names or trademarks are exclusively owned by the respective owner. No licence is granted by publishing the names and trademarks in the online services.

XI. Data protection

(1) EGR and Customer undertake to comply with the applicable data protection laws and regulations.

(2) If Customer, itself or via EGR, collects, retrieves, processes or uses personal data in connection with the online use of the software in the capacity of controller under data protection law, Customer shall ensure beforehand that it is authorized to collect, process and/or use such data in the concrete manner in accordance with applicable law and in particular with the data protection regulations, and, in the event of violation of such law or regulation, Customer shall hold EGR free and harmless against third party’ claims on first demand.

XII Warranty and liability

(1) Customer is aware of the fact that online services, in particular software, are very complex and cannot be developed 100 %% error-free.

(2) EGR shall be immediately notified of any defect or malfunction in a comprehensible manner and in writing via e-mail or fax. EGR will remedy the defect within a reasonable time after receipt of such notification. To the extent reasonable for Customer, EGR has the right, in order to remedy the defect, to provide Customer with a new version of the online services and/or the software which no longer contain or eliminate the notified defect or to develop a fall-back solution.

(3) If and to the extent tenancy law applies, strict liability of EGR in accordance with § 536 I of the German Civil Code is excluded. Customer’s right to termination for deprivation of use in accordance with section 543 (2) 1 of the German Civil Code and the right to reduce the remuneration are excluded as long as the reachability and/or the use of the online services due to the elimination of defects is reduced or excluded no more than 48 continuous hours.

(4) EGR is not liable for defects due to operating errors and/or that have occurred after use contrary to contract, unless Customer proves that the defects have not been caused by the events mentioned above.

(5) EGR is not liable for the content accuracy of Customer’s data in the online services and/or the software or for any defects or errors resulting therefrom.

(6) EGR is not liable for the functionality of the external data lines to its server, nor is EGR liable for power outages or for restrictions or failures of performance which are due to force majeure or to events which substantially complicate, restrict or render impossible the performance of a service. This includes, in particular, strike, lockout, official orders, failure of communication networks of other operators, malfunctions at the respective line provider as well as malfunctions that are within the risk area of other network providers.

(7) Customer must not enforce a reduction by deduction from the agreed remuneration. Claims against unjust enrichment and for damages shall remain unaffected.

(8) If it turns out that a defect reported by Customer does not actually exist and/or is not caused by the online services or the software, EGR may charge Customer for the costs arising from the analysis and other processing in accordance with EGR’s current price list for services.

(9) EGR does not guarantee the timeliness, accuracy and completeness of the information provided in free online services.

(10) EGR is not liable for the information created or published by third parties, which is accessible via the online services (e.g. via a link/hyperlink). EGR has no influence on the link text, the design, possible infringements of applicable rights (e.g. trademark rights or copyrights) and on the third parties accessible via the online services. EGR therefore expressly distances itself from all third-party content that can be accessed via EGR’s online services.

(11) The liability of EGR is limited to willful intent and gross negligence, regardless of the legal reason. In the event of willful intent and gross negligence, the statutory provisions shall apply.

(12) EGR’s liability for direct, indirect, special or other damages and consequential damages arising from the use of free online services or due to a lack of free online services is excluded.

(13) In the event of bodily injury or the breach of an essential contractual obligation („cardinal obligation”), EGR will also be liable in the event of slight negligence. If an essential contractual obligation is breached, EGR’s liability will be limited to the foreseeable damage typical of this type of contract. Cardinal obligations are obligations the fulfillment of which is required for the proper implementation of the contract and on the compliance of which the contracting parties regularly rely on and may rely.

(14) EGR is not liable for the loss of data if the damage could have been prevented by means of proper data protection for which Customer is responsible. Proper data protection is ensured if Customer performs daily data backups in machine-readable form as can be proven thus ensuring that such data can be recovered with reasonable efforts. The liability of EGR for the loss of data – unless caused by willful intent or gross negligence on the part of EGR – is limited to the typical recovery expenses that would have incurred if proper data protection had been performed

(15) EGR is not liable for the dissemination of confidential data stored in EGR’s system if and to the extent the dissemination of such data is due to the misuse of passwords and login data for which EGR is not responsible.

(16) To the extent EGR’s liability is excluded or limited, the same exclusion and limitation shall apply to the personal liability of EGR’s employees and staff as well as for third parties acting by and for EGR.

(17) Liability under the German Product Liability Act shall remain unaffected.

XIII. Control rights of EGR

(1) EGR has the right to read and check any data transmitted and retrieved via Customer’s online access if there is reason to suspect that such data is connected with illegal activities or the contents of the data violate applicable law or the accepted principles of morality.

(2) EGR has the right of access to the data transmitted and retrieved by Customer via the online access if and to the extent this is required to check the system.

XIV. Commencement, term and termination of the contract

(1) The provisions of this paragraph XIV. regarding commencement, term and termination of the contract will apply unless and to the extent otherwise agreed:

(2) The contract shall commence upon provision of the service by EGR. It is concluded for an indefinite period and can be terminated with a three (3) month notice to the end of each calendar month. The contract for online services, software and apps provided free of charge shall begin with their use and may be terminated at any time without notice; it shall end in any event as soon as EGR discontinues the services or the customer no longer uses them.

(3) The right to extraordinary termination and, as the case may be, without notice, for good reason shall remain unaffected.

(4) A termination is subject to the formal requirements set forth under XV. (3).

(5) The provisions regarding the limitations and exclusions of E’s liability shall continue to apply after termination of the contract or use until expiry of the limitation periods of claims for damages and/or reimbursement of expenses.

XV. Miscellaneous provisions

(1) The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply exclusively. Any application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) is excluded.

(2) The place of jurisdiction for both contractual partners shall be Erfurt (Germany) to the extent permissible by law.

(3) Any agreements between the contractual partners must be in writing in order to become valid with e-mail with sender’s name signature fulfilling this requirement.

(4) In the event any provision is not effective or loses its effectiveness due to a later circumstance, or if a gap is detected, the effectiveness of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. In this event, the both contractual partners shall replace such ineffective provisions immediately and/or fill the gap with such effective provisions that correspond to the economic purpose of the contract. In the event the contracting parties fail to do so although proven serious effort was made, such ineffective provisions and/or gaps shall be replaced with the legal provisions of the Federal Republic of Germany.

§ 4 Use of social media plugins

(1) We currently use the following social media plugins: [Facebook, Google+, X (fomerly Twitter), LinkedIn, Xing] applying the so-called two-click solution. This means that if you visit our website, no personal data will be passed on to the plugin provider in the first instance. You can view the plugin provider by selecting the box over the initial letter of its name or logo. We give you the opportunity to communicate directly with the plugin provider via the button. Only if you enable the selected field by clicking it will the plugin provider be informed that you have accessed the relevant page on our website. The data specified in § 3 hereof is also sent. In the case of Facebook and Xing, the providers have stated that in Germany the IP address is anonymized immediately upon its collection. If you enable the plugin, personal data concerning you will be sent to the plugin provider and stored by it (in the USA in the case of US providers). As plugin providers in particular use cookies to collect data, we recommend that you delete all cookies via your browser’s security settings before clicking on the grayed-out box.

(2) We have no influence over the data collected and the processing operations performed, nor do we have knowledge of the full scope of the data collection, the purposes of the processing, or storage periods. We also have no information regarding erasure of data collected by plugin providers.

(3) The plugin provider stores the information it collects about you as a user profile, which it uses for advertising and market research purposes and/or to tailor its website to the needs of users.

You have the right to opt out of the creation of these user profiles, but to exercise this right you must refer to the plugin provider.

If the button is activated you click on it and e.g. link to the page, the plugin provider will also store this information in your user account and inform your contacts publicly. We recommend that you log out regularly after using social networks, especially before activating a button, as this will prevent your actions being linked to your profile with the plugin provider.

(5) For further information regarding the purpose and scope of the collection and processing of data by the plugin provider, please see the privacy statements of those providers as specified below. Here you will also find further information about your rights in this regard and settings you can use to protect your privacy.

You can revoke the consent to the storage of data (e.g. e-mail address) and to its use, given by you, at any time.

The lawfulness of the data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation.

We have concluded an order processing contract with Amazon SES (“Data Processing Addendum”, available at https://d1.awsstatic.com/legal/aws-gdpr/AWS_GDPR_DPA.pdf), in which we oblige Amazon SES to protect our customers' data and not to pass it on to third parties.

For the transfer of data from the EU to other regions, Amazon SES refers to so-called Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) for data transfers between EU and non-EU countries of the European Commission, which are intended to ensure compliance with the European level of data protection, e.g. also in the USA.
