Terms of Use

§1 Conclusion of the Contractual Relationship, Changes to the Terms of Use

1.1 The following terms of use govern the contractual relationship between the provider Website2Desktop, Owner Andreas Krause, Zechenstr. 5, 51103 Cologne, Germany (hereinafter referred to as 'Website2Desktop' or Provider) and the user.

1.2 By completing a paid conversion process, the user makes an offer to conclude a usage agreement based on these terms of use. The provider accepts this offer by creating and activating a license account (by sending a confirmation email).

1.3 If the provider accepts the offer as described in 1.2, the license used by the user is unsealed. Unsealed licenses are excluded from revocation according to the revocation terms.

1.4 Conflicting or deviating terms from the user will only be accepted if expressly confirmed in writing by the provider.

1.5 The provider is entitled to amend these terms during the ongoing membership. The provider will notify the user of the updated terms in text form and highlight the changes. The user will be given a reasonable period to accept or reject the updated terms. If no response is received within this period, the updated terms are deemed accepted. The provider will explicitly inform the user of this consequence. If the user objects to the changes, the provider is entitled to terminate the agreement with immediate effect at the time the new terms take effect.

§2 Subject of the Usage Agreement

2.1 The subject of the usage agreement is the provision of a platform accessible via an active license account and software usable via an active license account by the provider. The platform is hereinafter referred to as the 'Login Area'. The software is referred to as 'Software'.

2.2 In the Login Area, the provider offers the user the following features:

• Dashboard: Overview of statistics, security information, news, and other summary information
• Application: Adjustments to selected settings (conversion process & login area)
• Statistics: Overview of current application metrics (e.g. visits, unique users, installations)
• Downloads: Overview and availability of software for download (based on license type)
• Security: Overview and adjustment of security settings
• License: Overview of license details (e.g. license holder, password for API)

2.3 The exact graphical and functional design of the offered features, any extensions with additional features, or the inclusion of paid add-ons are at the provider’s discretion. The provider may modify or adapt the design while maintaining the contractual features.

2.4 The Login Area and software will be available to the user with an average uptime of at least 95% annually. Unavoidable, unforeseeable, and exceptional events that cause service interruptions—such as power outages, hacking attempts, or telecommunications failures—do not count against this availability.

§3 Login Area, Handling of Confidential Data

3.1 Use of the Login Area is restricted to business users under Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB) who have 1) purchased a valid license and 2) completed a paid conversion. A business user is defined as any individual or legal entity acting in a commercial or self-employed professional capacity. Use by consumers (Section 13 BGB) is not permitted.

3.2 Users must provide truthful and complete information and keep it up to date.

3.3 Users must keep confidential data (e.g., API password) secret, secure, and inaccessible to third parties. If such data becomes known to third parties, the user must inform the provider immediately via email or in writing so that the data can be blocked and reassigned. Users may not share their Login Area with third parties. Users acknowledge full responsibility for any actions taken by third parties using their Login Area.

§4 General Obligations of the User

4.1 Users may only use the features provided by the provider for the intended contractual purposes. Misuse beyond this scope is prohibited, including but not limited to:

• Systematic harvesting of other users' contact data for distribution to third parties;
• Unreasonable harassment of other users via aggressive, obscene, insulting, defamatory, or intrusive messages;
• Unsolicited bulk advertising to other users;
• Prolonged or excessive use of the Login Area to publish or distribute content irrelevant to Website2Desktop and that could diminish its appeal to others;
• Actions that excessively burden or disrupt system operations;
• Uploading or publishing content that is not youth-appropriate or is criminal in nature;
• Uploading or publishing false or misleading content;
• Impersonation of other individuals.

4.2 Any of the above violations entitle the provider to terminate the agreement and deactivate the user's license account (Login Area and software). The provider may also refuse to reactivate an account for that user for 15 years.

§5 User Responsibilities for Uploaded Content

5.1 By uploading content, the user grants the provider a free, non-exclusive right to use, modify, publicly display, and make the content available on Website2Desktop.

5.2 The user must ensure that uploaded content (text, images, videos, etc.) does not violate third-party rights (e.g., copyright, personality rights, competition laws) and is youth-appropriate.

5.3 The user indemnifies the provider against all third-party claims resulting from any legal violation caused by the user. This includes all necessary legal defense costs.

5.4 The provider may remove or disable content if it is not youth-appropriate, violates third-party rights, or if there is a plausible legal complaint.

5.5 If the provider becomes aware of a potential legal violation, the user will be notified immediately in writing.

5.6 The provider assumes no liability for the accuracy, completeness, or usability of user-submitted content and reserves the right to edit or remove content due to legal, regulatory, or significant reasons.

§6 Termination and Deletion of the License Account

6.1 The user may terminate the usage agreement at any time without notice or reason in text form. Upon termination, the user's license account (including Login Area) will be permanently deleted. The software becomes invalid and unusable.

6.2 The provider may terminate the agreement with one month's notice effective at the end of the previous month.

6.3 The provider may terminate the agreement without notice for good cause, particularly if the user

• repeatedly and seriously violates contractual obligations (see §4);
• commits serious and culpable legal violations while using the Login Area or software.

6.4 The provider may terminate and delete the license account if the user has not logged in for at least one year or if account statistics indicate inactivity (e.g., visits, installations) for over one year.

§7 Liability

7.1 Claims for damages by users are excluded unless otherwise stated below. This exclusion also applies to claims against the provider.

7.2 The provider does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, reliability, timeliness, or usability of user-generated content published in the Login Area or software. The provider is not required to monitor or investigate submitted content for legality. Liability arises only in cases of intent or gross negligence.

7.3 The provider does not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted access to the Login Area or software. Interruptions (e.g., maintenance or power outages) may occur despite due care.

§8 Final Provisions

8.1 Only German law shall apply, excluding private international law and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Exceptions apply to intellectual property claims.

8.2 Jurisdiction: If the user has no general jurisdiction in Germany, the provider’s place of business applies. The provider may also sue the user at their general jurisdiction.
