1.
General
  These general terms and conditions include all agreements concluded by entrepreneurs or companies ("user") with Ruben-Alexander Hubert ("Laware"). In the event that separate agreements on main services are concluded, these are primarily applicable to these general terms and conditions.

All contracts applicable to the conclusion of the contract are sent to the user by e-mail when the contract is concluded.
 
2.
The Contract
  Laware offers its services temporarily free of charge. There is no exchange ratio of "data against service" users do not have a claim that services are permanently free of charge.
 
3.
Registration and conclusion of the contract
  The contract, including the inclusion of these general terms and conditions, is concluded by setting up a user account at Laware via the registration form. Users are obliged to provide true information when registering.
 
3.1
Contracts only with German companies
  Laware only concludes contracts with German entrepreneurs and companies in accordance with § 14 BGB. If the entrepreneurial status is clearly stated during registration, this means that consumer rights are not applicable.
 
4.
Intellectual property
  Laware grants users the simple, spatially unrestricted right to use the contents in Laware Software as intended. This includes only the right to use all the functions provided in a meaningful manner. This right is not transferable. Companies may sublicens the right to related companies in accordance with § 15 AktG. Such sublicenses are also bound to the duration of this contract. There are no obligations for Laware against the sublicensors that go beyond the provisions in this Treaty.
 
4.1
Upload of data
  Users grant Laware the simple, spatially unlimited right limited to the term of this contract to use content they upload to Laware software for the provision of the intended services. Users assure that they have the necessary rights to upload content to the software. Users are responsible for this data themselves and release Laware from any claims that third parties assert against Laware due to uploaded user content.
 
4.2
Trademark law
  Laware does not grant users rights to use the brand "laware" for their own purposes. An exception is only if Laware has integrated the brand name into the software and users must necessarily represent it. Laware does not use customers' brands for advertising purposes. However, it helps very much if the right to use is freely granted for advertising purposes. This requires an explanation from the user to Laware.
 
5.
Data protection
5.1
Laware is controller for the data of visitors to the websites (e.g. from individual documents or the legal center). With regard to the data of employees (e.g. in cooperation with documents), Laware is a processor. The user is obliged to enter into a contract processing contract with Laware in the sense of Art. 28 GDPR.
5.2
The Laware data processing agreement shall be deemed agreed together with these General Terms and Conditions. This is available here: versiony.app. Contracts concluded between the parties i.S.d. Art. 28 GDPR have priority over all other agreements.
5.3
The user must comply with applicable data protection regulations. In particular, he has to ensure that he can support the introduction of personal data into the services of Laware on a suitable legal basis. In addition, he has to inform data subjects about these processings.
 
6.
Digital Services Act
  In so far as Laware is an intermediary service within the meaning of REGULATION (EU) 2022/2065 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 19 October 2022 on a Single Market For Digital Services and amending Directive 2000/31/EC (Digital Services Act) the following shall apply:
 
6.1
Contact point
  The contact point in the sense of Art. 11 (contact points for the authorities of the Member States, the Commission and the Executive Board) and Art. 12 (contact points for users of the services) of the Regulation is the natural or legal person referred to in the Laware legal notice (laware.de).
 
6.2
Information according to Art. 14 of the Regulation
  Laware checks content uploaded by users to the service in a random manner or after specific references to legality and, where appropriate, initiates further measures if necessary (e.g. exclusion of the user from the services or notification to law enforcement authorities or rights holders).
 
6.3
Reporting and remedy procedures
  To the extent that persons wish to report or have to report information that is publicly available through Laware Services, Laware asks to provide at least the following information to the entity referred to in 6.1:

  • a sufficiently well-founded explanation of why the information in question is to be regarded as illegal content;
  • an unambiguous indication of the exact electronic location of this information, such as the precise URL address or the precise URL addresses, or, where necessary, further information useful in terms of the type of content and the specific type of hosting service for determining the illegal content (for Versiony, this may be the identifier at the end of each document)
  • the name and e-mail address of the reporting person or entity, unless the information is deemed to concern a criminal offence referred to in Articles 3 to 7 of Directive 2011/93/EU;
  • a statement that the reporting person or institution is in good faith convinced that the information and instructions contained in the notification are correct and complete.

As soon as a corresponding message is received, it is processed as quickly as possible via the support ticket system.
 
7.
Liability in case of free services
  If Laware offers the right to use the software for free, Laware is liable only for intent and gross negligence in accordance with § 521 BGB. This limitation of liability does not apply if compensation is negotiated in individual cases.
 
8.
Liability in case of paid services
8.1
Laware is liable for deliberate or grossly negligent damage as well as for damages from the culpable injury of life, body or health. In the event of slight negligent breaches of duty, liability is limited to those duties which are essential to the achievement of the purpose of the contract (cardinal obligations) - in these cases with the exception of the slight negligent violation of life, body or health - the obligation to substitute is limited to the typically foreseeable damage. In all other cases of slight negligence, the assertion of claims for damages against Laware, regardless of the legal grounds, is excluded. Insofar as liability is excluded or limited by us in accordance with the above regulations, this also applies to the personal liability of employees, representatives and vicarious agents. The liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected.
8.2
Laware is exempt from the provision of services in the event of force majeure (e.g. natural disasters or hacker attacks) and in the case of work-fighting measures not to be represented by Laware; this does not result in a claim for damages.
8.3
Laware is not liable for any damage arising from unauthorized use of a personal account.
8.4
The user agrees to indemnify Laware and/or the related companies and/or licensors of Laware from any claims and damage arising from or in connection with claims by third parties arising from a breach of these Terms and Conditions.
 
9.

No guarantee of freedom of error
  Laware expressly points out that, despite careful development and testing, no guarantee can be accepted that the software works fault-free in all possible applications.

12.

13.
Amendments to the Treaty
 
13.1
Price adjustments
  Laware is entitled, if a remuneration is agreed, to adjust the agreed prices to changing market conditions at a maximum of one time per quarter, with significant changes in procurement costs, changes in sales tax or procurement prices.
