2.1 In order to use our services, you must first register on one of the websites. You may only register once and only create one user profile. You may not use pseudonyms or artistic names. Registration is free of charge.
2.2 By completing your registration, you are making an offer to enter into a contract of use and you warrant that all data provided by you during registration is true and complete. You are obliged to notify us immediately of any changes in your registration data. The contract of use concluded by this registration includes the use of the “Free Version” of the software within the meaning of clause 3.1.
2.3 MeisterLabs accepts this offer by activating the user account for the services. Through this acceptance, the contract between you and us comes into effect.
2.4 Insofar as you do not use the software yourself as a natural person, only such persons may be authorised to use the software who stand in relation to you with contracts of service, employment or apprenticeship at the time the contract is concluded. Direct or indirect use by other persons is not permitted. You warrant that you have obliged each user to comply with these contractual terms and conditions and in this respect indemnify MeisterLabs against all claims in accordance with the provision in section 6.9.
2.5 If you register your user account using an email address which is owned or controlled by a legal entity (“Legal Entity”), e.g. your employer, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to register on behalf of that Legal Entity. You further acknowledge that in this case your user account and all associated account data (e.g. mindmaps, projects, tasks, notes, any other uploaded content) belong to the Legal Entity, and not you personally. As such, MeisterLabs may allow the Legal Entity to control or fully take over your user account. This means that the Legal Entity is in particular able to (i) access, disclose, transfer, restrict or remove information and data from your user account, and (ii) restrict or deactivate your access to your user account. The foregoing also applies if you join a team or a shared project owned by a Legal Entity, e.g. when using your private email address to create an account and joining your employer's team or shared project.
2.6 You are obliged to keep the password chosen by you during registration as well as the other access data secret and to ensure that any persons authorised by you to whom access data is made available also do so. MeisterLabs will not ask you for your password at any time except when using the software. MeisterLabs is entitled to block access to the software temporarily or permanently in case of objective evidence of unauthorized access (e.g. by an external third party or an unregistered user with the log in data of another registered user). MeisterLabs will inform you about the blocking in a timely manner, stating the reasons on which the blocking is based on.
2.7 By presenting and advertising products and services on our websites, we do not make any binding offer to sell specific products or services. If you wish to purchase paid versions of the software (i.e. “paid versions” within the meaning of section 3.1), you can start the initially non-binding ordering process by clicking on the “Buy now” button. As far as provided for the respective paid version, you can specify in the next step for how many users a right to the respective paid version is to be acquired. Before completing the ordering process, you can correct your order at any time by using the correction aids provided and explained for this purpose in the ordering process.

Confirmation of receipt of your order will be sent by email immediately after you have sent the order.

3 Usage Variants, Prices, Price Changes and Terms of Payment
3.1 MeisterLabs offers registered users two versions of use on its websites:
a) a free of charge version, which is functional but limited (“free version”) and
b) several paid versions with additional functions (“paid version”).
3.2 Pricing may vary depending on the paid version acquired and the roles selected for individual users. Different paid versions or roles may have different prices. Prices are subject to change and MeisterLabs reserves the right to adjust prices for any subsequent subscription period by giving at least 14 days notice before such price adjustment comes into effect. The currently applicable prices and available role descriptions, as well as other Details on fees for the individual paid versions can be found on the web pages in the “Prices” section. The prices stated there are binding and are exclusive of the applicable statutory tax. Each fee is due for payment upon conclusion of the contract for the entire term. The fee will be adjusted accordingly for each use of the software exceeding the contractually agreed scope (“Overuse”) in accordance with the then current prices in the Prices section (or the individually agreed prices determined in a written sales order, if any) automatically and without the need for a separate information by MeisterLabs. The corresponding remuneration shall accrue from the time the Overuse occurs. If the time of the Overuse cannot exactly be determined retroactively, MeisterLabs shall be entitled to determine the point in time at its reasonable discretion and taking into account all circumstances of the individual case. The Customer is at liberty to provide evidence of a later start of the Overuse.
3.3 You can pay by means of the debit procedures offered on the websites, in particular the accepted credit cards, or by means of the online payment procedures offered. If a charge cannot be collected, you shall bear all costs arising therefrom, in particular bank charges in connection with the return of direct debits and comparable charges, to the extent that you are responsible for the event which led to fees being incurred.
3.4 MeisterLabs may send you the invoice for the fees paid by email or make it available in your account.
3.5 MeisterLabs may suspend, downgrade or terminate your account if fees are past due. Unpaid due Fees are subject to a finance charge of five percent (5%) above the base interest rate if you are a consumer and nine percent (9%) above the base interest rate if you are an entrepreneur, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower. In addition, MeisterLabs will be entitled to recover its expenses for collection of due and unpaid fees, including court and reasonable attorneys’ fees. Suspension, downgrading or termination of your account does not lead to the release of any payment obligations.
3.6 Discounts or other price reductions apply exclusively to the specifically agreed products or services and the minimum contract term. They only apply to renewal periods, additional products or services, or the purchase of additional licenses if expressly agreed. MeisterLabs has no obligation to continue any price reductions.
4 Type and Scope of the Service
4.1 MeisterLabs provides you with the software in its respective current version for use at the router point of the data centre in which the server with the software is located (“delivery point”). The software, the computing power required for the operation of the software in the data centre and the storage and data processing space required for this are provided by MeisterLabs. However, MeisterLabs is not obliged to ensure the establishment and maintenance of the data connection between your systems and the described delivery point.
4.2 MeisterLabs grants you the non-exclusive, non-transferable right of use, limited to the duration of the contract, to use the software for your own purposes, to store and process your data with the aid of the software, to load the user interface of the software for display on the screen into the main memory of the end devices used for this purpose in accordance with the agreement and to make the resulting copies of the user interface.
4.3 The contractually agreed service may not be made available to third parties unless this has been expressly agreed by the parties.
4.4 The Software may offer integrations with third-party services or applications. MeisterLabs is under no obligation to offer or continue to offer any specific third-party integrations, and may modify, suspend, or terminate any such integration at its sole discretion without prior notice. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that any use of such third-party integrations is solely between the Customer and the respective third-party provider and is undertaken at the Customer's own risk and responsibility. MeisterLabs assumes no responsibility and shall not be liable for any aspect of such third-party integrations, including but not limited to their availability, functionality, security, data handling practices, or any consequences arising from their use or inability to use them. It is the Customer's sole responsibility to evaluate and ensure the suitability of any third-party integration for their purposes and to comply with the terms and conditions of the respective third-party provider.
5 Availability and Changes of the software
5.1 MeisterLabs will enable the use of the software within the framework of the proven state of the art and will endeavour to ensure the greatest possible availability. MeisterLabs reserves the right to temporarily restrict access to or use of the Software in whole or in part if this is necessary with regard to capacity limits, the security or integrity of the servers or for the implementation of technical measures and this serves the proper or improved provision of the services (e.g. during maintenance work, updates, upgrades). MeisterLabs will provide you with updates during the term of the Agreement that are necessary to maintain the Software in compliance with the Agreement and will provide you with reasonable notice of such updates. Beyond that, MeisterLabs is not obliged to provide updates or upgrades for the Software or to adapt the Software in any other way to any changes in hardware and/or software (in particular operating systems or web browsers).
5.2 MeisterLabs draws your attention to the fact that restrictions or impairments of the services provided may arise that are beyond the control of MeisterLabs. This includes, in particular, actions by third parties not acting on behalf of MeisterLabs, technical conditions of the Internet that MeisterLabs cannot influence and force majeure. The hardware, software and technical infrastructure used by you may also have an influence on the services. Insofar as such circumstances have an influence on the availability or functionality of the service provided by MeisterLabs, this shall have no effect on the contractual conformity of the services provided.
5.3 You are obliged to notify MeisterLabs immediately and as precisely as possible of any functional outages, disruptions or impairments of the software. If you fail to do so, § 536c BGB (German Civil Code) shall apply accordingly.
5.4 MeisterLabs is entitled to further develop, modify or adapt the Software, including discontinuing features and functionalities or parts of it, provided that such further development, modification or adaptation (i) is necessary for MeisterLabs to comply with legal requirements, or (ii) is conducted in accordance with prevailing industry standards and does not substantially impair the core functionality of the Software as reasonably expected by the Customer. In determining what constitutes substantial impairment, due consideration shall be given to the Software's overall purpose and the Customer's reasonable expectations based on the Software's current and documented features. This entitlement explicitly includes the right to add or improve features and functionalities without restriction, provided such changes do not contradict the aforementioned limitations.
5.5. MeisterLabs may, at its discretion, offer beta features or functionalities within the Software. You acknowledges and agrees that (i) the use of any beta feature or functionality is at your sole risk and responsibility; (ii) MeisterLabs provides no warranty or guarantee of any kind regarding the functionality, reliability, or availability of beta features or functionalities; (iii) MeisterLabs is under no obligation to continue, maintain, or support any beta feature or functionality; (iv) MeisterLabs reserves the right to modify, discontinue, or integrate any beta feature or functionality into the standard Software offering at any time, without prior notice; (v) MeisterLabs may, at its sole discretion, introduce charges for beta features or functionalities that were previously offered free of charge, or adjust the pricing of existing features upon their transition from beta status; and (vi) you waive any claims or liabilities arising from the use, modification, or discontinuation of beta features or functionalities.

Distribution and public reproduction of content from the websites or from other users.
Any action that is likely to impair the functionality of the MeisterLabs infrastructure, in particular to place an excessive load on it.

MeisterLabs will reasonably inform the customer about the blockage, specifying the reasons underlying the blockage.
6.9 You will indemnify MeisterLabs against all claims, including claims for damages, brought by other users or other third parties against MeisterLabs for infringement of their rights by (i) content posted by you, or (ii) use of the Software by you.

7.3 If we become aware that such reports are repeatedly made against good faith and on the basis of incorrect or incomplete information, despite prior warning, we are entitled to suspend the processing of such incoming reports for a certain period of time. Whether the processing of reports is actually suspended and for how long depends on various factors. In particular, the type and severity of the abusive reports (e.g. multiple reports of the same content without new information after it has already been confirmed that we cannot clearly assess the content as illegal or infringing), any previous abusive reports by the reporting person or entity and - as far as can be determined - the intention of the reporting person or entity.

We will provide you with the proposed changes to these terms in text form (e.g. by email) at least 14 days before the proposed effective date.

14.5 The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply. The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply. If you are a consumer and have your habitual residence in another country at the time of the conclusion of the contract, the application of mandatory legal provisions of this country remains unaffected by the choice of law made in sentence 1.
