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.

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) 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.

(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.

IX. Copyright
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.

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).
