• If Pfann GmbH is prevented from providing the agreed services and the reasons for the hindrance originate from the customer's sphere, Pfann GmbH's claim for compensation remains unaffected.

11. Conduct and Consideration

• The customer must ensure the usual behavior of an honest merchant towards us. We reserve the right to take civil legal action against any unlawful and/or improper or unfounded statement about our company and our services, whether by customers, competitors, or other third parties, especially false factual claims and defamation, and to report them to the authorities without prior notice.
• The customer is obliged to ensure the smooth progress of our programs and (also virtual) events and to follow our instructions immediately. In case of repeated violation of a once given instruction, we are entitled to exclude the customer temporarily or permanently from the respective participation. Our claim for compensation remains unaffected in these cases.

12. Usage Rights

• Subject to individual agreements to the contrary, the customer receives only a simple and non-transferable right of use concerning the work and performance results created and provided by Pfann GmbH for the duration of the contract term. Performance and work results within the meaning of the underlying contract are all work or services or parts thereof created by Pfann GmbH for the customer (e.g., all information, documents, evaluations, videos, photos, know-how acquired in the course of order fulfillment, advertisements, drawings, materials, specifications, program designs, (electronic) files, data collections, individual software including associated documentation, manuals, and IT systems in the form of source codes or otherwise).
• Paragraph 1 applies exclusively under the proviso that the customer has paid the compensation due to Pfann GmbH under the main contract in full.
• If instalment payment is agreed, the right of use named in paragraph 1, subject to individual agreements to the contrary, passes to Pfann GmbH only after the full payment of the last instalment.
• The customer is strictly prohibited from passing on the access, login data, and content of our member platforms provided to them exclusively for the duration of the booked contract term, and usually personally, to third parties not authorized by us. This also applies to affiliated companies. In case of violations against the aforementioned obligation, a reasonable contractual penalty, the amount of which is to be determined by us at our reasonable discretion depending on the program, is considered as forfeited to us. Access by company employees/employees of the customer is generally approvable but must be expressly authorized and confirmed by us against the customer.
• By using our member platforms, the customer agrees to the evaluation of the individual user behavior and the collection of the associated data (including IP and MAC address), which may be personal, on the respective platform by our company and the use of appropriate software for the duration of the contract term.

13. Right of Withdrawal

There is neither a statutory right of withdrawal for entrepreneurs within the meaning of § 14 BGB and merchants according to the Commercial Code (HGB) nor is such a right otherwise granted by Pfann GmbH.

14. Liability

• Pfann GmbH is liable for damages – regardless of the legal reason – only for intent and gross negligence. In case of simple negligence, Pfann GmbH is only liable:
• a) for damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health.
• b) for damages resulting from the breach of an essential contractual obligation (an obligation whose fulfillment makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on whose compliance the contractual partner regularly relies and may rely); in this case, however, the liability is limited to the replacement of the foreseeable, typically occurring damage.
• Within the limits of paragraph 1, Pfann GmbH is not liable for data and program losses. The liability for data loss is limited in amount to the typical recovery effort that would have occurred with regular and risk-appropriate creation of backup copies. Liability under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected, as does liability for the assumption of a guarantee.

15. Severability

• Deviations from these GTC are only effective if they have been agreed in writing. Individual agreements made with the customer in specific cases (including ancillary agreements, supplements, and modifications) always take precedence over these GTC. The content of such agreements is determined by a written contract or written confirmation from Pfann GmbH.
• The entire contractual relationship between Pfann GmbH and the customer is subject to German law, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).
• The place of performance is the registered office of Pfann GmbH. The exclusive place of jurisdiction for commercial matters is the registered office of Pfann GmbH, currently in Munich.
• Should one or more provisions of the contract become invalid or unenforceable for factual or legal reasons, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining contract provisions. Pfann GmbH and the customer are obliged to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid provision that comes closest to the economically intended purpose.
