This is a convenience translation. The German version of these terms is legally binding; in the event of any discrepancy, the German text prevails.
Sec. 1 Scope and contract documents
- These general terms and conditions apply to all contracts for the paid provision and use of the software-as-a-service solution korrekturbeleg.de by OREONX Software GmbH.
- The offer is aimed exclusively at entrepreneurs, business customers, legal entities under public law and special funds under public law.
- The contractual relationship is based on:
- the individual offer or order,
- the respective service description,
- any agreed service level agreement (SLA),
- any agreed data processing agreement (DPA),
- these terms.
- In the event of conflicts, the following order of precedence applies:
- individual agreements or the offer,
- the SLA for service levels,
- the DPA for data processing on behalf of the customer,
- these terms.
- Differing or supplementary terms of the customer apply only if OREONX has expressly agreed to their validity in text form.
Sec. 2 Subject matter and scope of services
- OREONX provides the customer with the korrekturbeleg.de software in its respective current, contractually compliant version for use over the internet.
- Use includes access to the contractually agreed functions, provision of the necessary system resources and access via a current web browser or an application supported by OREONX.
- No transfer of ownership of the software, the source code or the underlying infrastructure takes place.
- The type, scope and characteristics of the services are governed by the offer, the service description and any additional services booked.
- OREONX owes training, implementation, migration, individual customisation, consulting services or interface connections only if these have been expressly agreed.
Sec. 3 Provision, availability and further development
- OREONX provides the software on infrastructure operated by itself or by commissioned service providers.
- Data processing takes place in data centres in Germany, in particular in Nuremberg and Frankfurt am Main. The data centre infrastructure used is ISO 27001-certified.
- The transfer point of the service is the router output of the data centre used by OREONX to the public internet.
- The customer is solely responsible for its internet connection and for the hardware and software it uses.
- OREONX is entitled to carry out maintenance, updates, patches and technical improvements to the extent this serves the security, stability, error correction or further development of the product.
- Planned maintenance windows and short-term measures to avert danger do not constitute a breach of contract in the form of unavailability.
- OREONX owes a specific target availability only if this has been expressly agreed in the offer or in an SLA.
- OREONX may modify the software to the extent this is necessary for technical, security-related, regulatory or objectively justified business reasons and reasonable for the customer.
- If a change leads to a more than insignificant restriction of the agreed core functionality, OREONX will inform the customer in text form with reasonable notice. If the change is unreasonable for the customer, the customer may terminate the contract extraordinarily as of the date of the change.
Sec. 4 Rights of use
- For the term of the contract, OREONX grants the customer a simple, non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable right to use the software within the contractually agreed scope.
- The right of use includes displaying and using the software, entering, storing, processing and outputting data and using agreed export and reporting functions.
- Use is permitted exclusively for the customer's own operational purposes. Use for third parties, sub-letting or offering the software as the customer's own SaaS service is not permitted without OREONX's prior express consent.
- The customer may not copy, distribute, modify, decompile, disassemble or reverse-engineer the software, unless this is exceptionally permitted under mandatory statutory provisions.
- To the extent that user accounts, usage quotas, tenants, document volumes or other usage limits are agreed in the offer, the customer is bound by these limits.
- If the agreed usage scope is exceeded, OREONX is entitled to charge for the additional use according to the agreed pricing logic or to demand an adjustment of the plan.
- All rights to the software, the documentation, signs, trademarks, designs and other property rights remain with OREONX or the respective rights holders.
- OREONX may evaluate fully anonymised usage data to ensure security, stability, error analysis and product improvement. It must not be possible to draw conclusions about natural persons from this.
Sec. 5 Third-party software and open source
- The software may contain or integrate third-party components, libraries or services.
- To the extent that separate licence or usage terms apply to third-party components, these take precedence over the provisions of these terms for the respective component.
- If the software contains open-source components, the respective open-source licence terms apply.
- OREONX remains the customer's contractual partner for the services owed by OREONX itself. This does not apply to independent third-party services that the customer additionally obtains directly.
Sec. 6 Customer obligations
- The customer ensures that the technical requirements necessary for use are met within its area of responsibility.
- The customer must keep access data, user IDs and passwords secret, protect them against unauthorised access and inform OREONX without delay if misuse is suspected.
- The customer uses the software exclusively within the framework of applicable laws and these terms.
- The customer may not introduce into the platform, or process via the platform, any unlawful content, malware or other data that endangers security.
- The customer remains responsible for the legality, completeness and accuracy of the content it enters or processes.
- The customer takes its own appropriate data backup measures to the extent necessary given the nature and scope of the data processed.
- The customer must report defects and malfunctions to OREONX without delay and as comprehensibly as possible and provide the information required for error analysis to a reasonable extent.
- The customer is itself responsible for complying with its own statutory retention, documentation and compliance obligations.
- The customer is also responsible for the conduct of its authorised users.
Sec. 7 Support
- Support is provided within the scope of services booked in each case.
- Unless otherwise agreed, support is provided exclusively by email to support@korrekturbeleg.de.
- Response times, escalation levels and availabilities apply only if they have been expressly defined in the offer, plan or SLA.
- To the extent that a request does not concern a defect in the owed service but rather consulting, customisation or additional support, OREONX may offer and charge for this service separately.
Sec. 8 Data protection and data security
- The parties comply with the applicable data protection provisions.
- To the extent that OREONX processes personal data on behalf of the customer, this is done exclusively on the basis of a separate DPA.
- The customer remains the owner of the data it introduces. OREONX receives only the rights required for contract performance, technical provision, error correction, data backup and recovery.
- OREONX takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the customer's data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse and unlawful alteration.
- OREONX is entitled to use subcontractors to provide the services. Where required under data protection law, these are governed within the DPA.
- During the contract term and until 14 days after the end of the contract at the latest, the customer may request the release of its data in a common machine-readable format, to the extent this is technically available and contractually provided for.
- OREONX generally deletes the data stored by the customer 30 days after the end of the contract, unless statutory retention obligations, legitimate interests or differing agreements prevent this.
Sec. 9 Remuneration and payment terms
- Use of OREONX's services is subject to payment of the contractually agreed remuneration.
- Prices, scope of services, the booked plan and any additional services result from the respective offer or order.
- All prices are exclusive of statutory VAT.
- OREONX's products are payable monthly or annually. Regardless of the chosen payment method, the contract term is always 12 months.
- Unless otherwise agreed, invoices are due for payment without deduction within 14 days of the invoice date.
- Additional services, additional use, extensions or separately commissioned services are charged additionally.
- If the customer defaults on due payments, OREONX is entitled, after a reminder, to temporarily block access to the software in whole or in part, provided the customer's legitimate interests have been appropriately taken into account.
- Statutory claims for late payment, in particular default interest and further rights, remain unaffected.
- Price changes for future contract periods are permitted if there are objective reasons, in particular cost increases in hosting, infrastructure, personnel, security or third-party services.
- OREONX will notify price changes in text form at least 3 months before they take effect. In the case of a price change disadvantageous to the customer, the customer may terminate the contract as of the date of the change.
Sec. 10 Temporary suspension or restriction
- OREONX is entitled to temporarily suspend or restrict the use of the services in whole or in part if
- there is significant payment default,
- there is a security incident or security threat,
- the customer uses the software unlawfully or in breach of contract,
- a suspension is required by law, by an authority or by court order.
- OREONX will inform the customer, as far as possible and reasonable, in advance or immediately afterwards about the suspension and its reason.
- The customer's obligation to pay fees already due remains unaffected during a justified suspension.
Sec. 11 Warranty
- OREONX warrants that the software essentially corresponds to the contractually agreed functions.
- In particular, there is no defect if a malfunction is due to the fact that
- the customer uses the software improperly,
- the customer or third parties have made interventions or changes without OREONX's consent,
- the software is used with incompatible hardware or software or unsuitable interfaces,
- the impairment is only insignificant.
- OREONX is entitled, at its own discretion, to remedy defects by rectification, update, workaround or replacement provision.
- The customer must support OREONX to a reasonable extent in analysing and remedying defects.
- If the remedy of a defect ultimately fails and the use of the software is thereby substantially impaired, the customer may reduce the remuneration appropriately or terminate the contract for good cause.
Sec. 12 Liability
- OREONX is liable without limitation in cases of intent, gross negligence, injury to life, body or health, fraudulent concealment of a defect and in cases of mandatory statutory liability.
- In cases of simple negligence, OREONX is liable only for the breach of essential contractual obligations. In this case, liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract.
- Essential contractual obligations are obligations whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance the customer may regularly rely.
- Unless otherwise regulated by individual agreement, OREONX's liability in cases of slight negligence is limited in amount to the typically foreseeable damage and to a maximum of three times the net value of the contractually agreed annual remuneration.
- OREONX is not liable for data losses to the extent these are due to the customer failing to take reasonable data backup measures or to damage caused by the customer itself or by third parties.
- OREONX is not liable for outages, delays or service restrictions due to force majeure. This includes in particular power outages, network outages, strikes, natural events, official measures and comparable events beyond OREONX's control.
- To the extent that OREONX's liability is excluded or limited, this also applies in favour of OREONX's legal representatives, employees and vicarious agents.
Sec. 13 Confidentiality
- Both parties undertake to treat all confidential information that becomes known to them in connection with this contractual relationship as confidential for an unlimited period and to use it exclusively for the performance of the contract.
- Information is not considered confidential if it
- is already publicly known,
- becomes public without breach of this obligation,
- was lawfully obtained from third parties, or
- must be disclosed due to mandatory statutory provisions.
- The parties will impose corresponding obligations on their employees and any subcontractors used.
Sec. 14 Contract term and termination
- The contract takes effect upon conclusion of the contract or upon activation of the customer account.
- The fixed contract term is always 12 months.
- The contract is automatically renewed for a further 12 months each time, unless terminated by one party in text form with 30 days' notice to the end of the respective contract term.
- The chosen payment method, monthly or annual, does not affect the fixed annual contract term.
- The right to extraordinary termination for good cause remains unaffected.
- Good cause exists in particular if
- a party persistently breaches essential contractual obligations despite a reminder or warning,
- the customer fails to meet essential payment obligations despite a reminder,
- insolvency proceedings are applied for or opened over the assets of a party, to the extent legally permissible.
- The customer's rights of use end when the contract ends. The customer must then cease using the software. Rights to data output under Sec. 8 remain unaffected.
Sec. 15 Amendments to the terms
- OREONX is entitled to amend these terms with effect for future contract periods if there is an objective reason for doing so and the customer is not unreasonably disadvantaged as a result.
- Objective reasons include in particular
- changes in the legal situation,
- changes to technical standards,
- security requirements,
- changes to the service model or infrastructure,
- a need for regulation due to gaps or disruptions in the contractual framework.
- OREONX notifies the customer of amendments to the terms in text form in good time.
- If the customer objects to an announced amendment, the previous terms continue to apply for the current contract period. In this case, OREONX is entitled to terminate the contract by ordinary notice at the end of the current contract period.
Sec. 16 Final provisions
- The customer may only offset claims that are undisputed, legally established or ready for decision. The customer has a right of retention only to that extent.
- Rights and obligations under the contract may only be transferred by the customer with OREONX's prior consent.
- The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
- The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with the contractual relationship is, to the extent legally permissible, Konstanz.
- Amendments and additions to the contract require at least text form, unless a stricter form is required by law.
- Should individual provisions of these terms be or become wholly or partly invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected.
