(hereinafter the “Provider”)

and its customers (hereinafter the “Customer”) regarding the provision and management of digital book collections via a personal customer account.

Deviating or supplementary terms of the Customer apply only if expressly acknowledged in writing by the Provider.

2. Description of Services

The Provider enables customers to present their book collections digitally on the website. For this purpose, the Provider sets up a customer account. The Provider creates and maintains the book data (texts, images, condition details, etc.) on behalf of the Customer.

No sale or trading takes place via the platform.

3. Formation of Contract

A contractual relationship between Provider and Customer is formed individually through written or electronic engagement. Automated registration via the website is not available.

After agreement, the Customer is provided with password-protected access to their book archive.

4. User Account & Access

The Customer receives login credentials for their personal customer account. The Customer is obliged to keep these credentials confidential and not to grant access to third parties. In the event of suspected misuse, the Provider must be informed immediately.

5. Responsibility for Content

All content (texts, photos, descriptions) is created exclusively by the Provider. The Customer warrants that they hold the rights to the information and images provided (e.g. ownership of the books) or are authorized to publish them.

The Provider assumes no liability for the accuracy of information supplied by the Customer.

6. Rights of Use

The Customer receives a simple, non-transferable right to use the digital book presentation for the contractual purpose. Commercial reuse, reproduction, or public presentation of the content outside the Customer’s own account area is prohibited.

7. Prices and Payment Terms

Where fees are charged for the service, pricing and billing arrangements are set out on an individual contractual basis. The prices stated in the respective offer apply. All prices are net plus statutory VAT.

Payments are due immediately upon invoicing unless otherwise agreed.

8. Term and Termination

The contract is concluded for an indefinite period unless otherwise agreed. Either party may terminate the contractual relationship with 14 days’ notice effective at the end of the month.

The right to extraordinary termination for good cause remains unaffected.

9. Availability

The Provider strives for high availability of the website and customer areas. A specific level of availability is not guaranteed. Maintenance work or force majeure may restrict accessibility.

10. Liability

The Provider is liable without limitation for intent or gross negligence. In cases of slight negligence, the Provider is liable only for breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal duties) and limited to the typically foreseeable damage.

No liability is assumed for data loss resulting from inadequate backup measures on the part of the Customer.

11. Data Protection

Personal data is handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy. The Customer agrees to the storage and processing of their data within the scope of the contractual relationship.

12. Changes to These Terms

The Provider reserves the right to amend these Terms & Conditions at any time. Changes will be communicated to the Customer in good time. If the Customer does not object within 14 days of notification, the changes are deemed accepted.

13. Final Provisions

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

If any provision of these Terms is invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected.

The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contractual relationship is Fürth, provided the Customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law.
