2. Scope of Application and General Provisions
2.1 These Terms apply to the provision and use of Podcast Editor’s cross-platform Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) for collaboratively creating, editing, and sharing videos and audio content by Type Software UG, Heidbrede 12, 33829 Borgholzhausen(hereinafter referred to as “Podcast Editor”).
2.2 For the avoidance of doubt: The Customer is a Consumer insofar as the purpose of the subscribed services is predominantly outside his trade, business or profession. On the other hand, a Customer is any natural or legal person or partnership with legal personality who or which, when concluding the Contract, acts in the exercise of his or its trade, business or profession.
2.3 Deviations from these Terms shall only be considered agreed if they have expressly been confirmed in writing by Podcast Editor. In particular, the mere omission of an objection by Podcast Editor against any general terms and conditions of the Customer shall not cause such terms and conditions to be considered agreed. This shall also apply if Podcast Editor performs services unconditionally upon knowledge of opposing terms and conditions of the Customer or terms and conditions diverging from these Terms.
2.4 We reserve the right to change these Terms for justified reasons (including, but not limited to, security reasons, performance enhancement, adaptation to a new technical environment, due to increased user numbers, operational reasons, to comply with legal or regulatory requirements and/or difficulties in the execution of the contract not foreseeable by the parties at the time of the conclusion of the contract) at our reasonable discretion, but always taking into account the legitimate interests of the Customer. The amendments will be limited to adjustments in accordance with the relevant legitimate reason. In the event of an imminent change, we will inform the Customer in writing or text form with a period of at least thirty (30) days. If the Customer does not object within this period, the changes shall be deemed accepted with effect from that time. We will inform the Customer in the notification of the effect of silence and the significance of the period.
The preceding paragraph shall not apply to such amendments which would lead to a change in the principle of equivalence (“Äquivalenzverhältnis”) of this contract (of performance and consideration) or to a change in the contract structure as a whole. In this case, we may offer the Customer continuation of the contract under the then amended terms and conditions. These amended conditions shall only be effectively agreed between the parties if the Customer accepts the continuation of the contract under the amended conditions.
If the Customer is a consumer within the meaning of Section 13 of the German Civil Code (“BGB”) and a change affects the ability to access the software or the usability of the software, the following shall also apply: The Customer may terminate this Agreement free of charge within 30 days. The period begins with the receipt of the following information. If the change occurs after the receipt of the information, the time of the change shall take the place of the time of receipt of the information. Termination of the contract pursuant to this paragraph shall be excluded if (1) the impairment of the access option or usability is only insignificant or (2) the Customer retains the access option to the unchanged digital product and the usability of the unchanged digital product without additional costs. The Customer’s regular right of termination shall remain unaffected.We shall inform the Customer within a reasonable period of at least 2 weeks prior to the time of the change by means of a durable data medium about (1) the features and time of the change and (2) the Customer’s rights to terminate the contract with us free of charge; this shall not apply if the impairment of the accessibility or usability is only insignificant
