1. Scope of Application.
The provider K-MEDIA, hereinafter also referred to as K-MEDIA, provides its services exclusively based on these

These Terms of Use apply to all offers and services of K-MEDIA, including but not limited to online

agreed upon. By agreeing during the order or by using the services, whether online or otherwise, the customer
accepts these Terms of Use.
2. Service Obligations.
- Unless explicitly agreed otherwise,
K-MEDIA may have the services it is responsible for provided by qualified employees or third parties.
- Support is offered exclusively through
the contact form or the customer panel. Unless otherwise agreed, it may be necessary to take on a license
extension or annual support costs. These costs will be communicated to the customer in advance and are to be
borne in addition to the agreed services.

the service: The availability of K-MEDIA's services is based on the agreed operating hours and any
maintenance windows. K-MEDIA will inform the customer in advance about planned maintenance windows or service
availability disruptions.

3. Contract Conclusion.
- Each concluded contract is a one-time,
annual, or monthly contract unless otherwise agreed according to the valid service description. The contract is
concluded when K-MEDIA confirms the customer's offer or accepts an order. The acceptance of an offer or order must occur within 14 days of receipt by K-MEDIA, unless a different deadline is specified in the offer. Offers are generally valid for 1 month.
- Contract changes or amendments are not possible. If adjustments are required, a new contract must be concluded or the existing contract will be deactivated and replaced by the new one. Changes are only valid in writing, including email communication, which must come from the registered email-address in the customer account. If the registered email-address is no longer available, another email-address may be used, provided this has been previously agreed upon with K-MEDIA.
- The contractual relationship may be
terminated by either party with a notice period of 14 days before the end of the term, at the end of the month.

improving systems, services, and customer support and will not be shared with third parties.
- Special tariffs include the termination
clauses contained therein as agreed.
- Most contracts can be terminated at any
time via the customer panel.
4. Prices and Payment Terms.
- Unless otherwise agreed in the order, the prices specified on K-MEDIA's website at the time of contract conclusion shall apply. K-MEDIA reserves the right to adjust the prices at any time. However, price changes only apply to new orders and contracts and existing contracts remain unaffected. Price changes for new orders and contracts will be communicated to the customer in a timely manner. In case of a price change for new orders or contracts, the customer may cancel the contract within 14 days after notification without giving any reason.

30 days may apply. In case of outstanding payments, K-MEDIA is entitled to deactivate the service and, in
extreme cases, revoke the license.

reserves the right to adjust them due to market changes or force majeure. Customers will be informed in a timely
manner about adjustments so that they can react accordingly.

will be automatically renewed. The customer is responsible for terminating the service in a timely manner before
the end of the term. The termination can be made at any time via the customer panel.

data required for the performance of the contract completely and correctly. K-MEDIA may request proof of
identity to verify the information, such as a business license for companies or an ID card for individuals.
- K-MEDIA guarantees compliance with data
protection regulations in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Personal data will
only be stored as long as necessary for the purpose of the contract or legal retention periods. Data will only
be shared with third parties if necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or legally required.
- After the expiration of legal retention
periods or the purpose of processing no longer applies, the data will be deleted unless other legitimate reasons
require longer storage.
6. Termination.
- The contract can be terminated at any
time via the customer panel or by email with a notice period of 14 days before the end of the minimum term.

timely termination occurs. The notice period for renewals is also 14 days before the end of the respective

necessary adjustments will be made. However, this may take some time. After delivery, new features will only be
integrated for free if this has been expressly agreed upon.
- Delivery takes place after payment is
received and within the agreed delivery time. Delays due to force majeure or unforeseen events, which K-MEDIA is
not responsible for, will result in an appropriate extension of the delivery time. In general, no fixed delivery
deadlines are guaranteed, and the customer must expect waiting times until delivery is completed.
- After delivery, the customer will gain

made available to the customer via a download link or directly within the software. Additional features or
extensions are chargeable unless expressly agreed upon as free integration.

K-MEDIA may require an advance payment of 50–75% of the final price. However, final delivery will only take
place after full payment has been received. The customer will be informed about the payment terms before signing
the contract.
- The delivery of the software occurs by
providing it for use by the customer. This can be done in the form of a download, a link, or a physical data
carrier.
