Scope of these terms of use for PERI Applications


General. These terms of use for PERI Applications (“Terms of Use”) govern the use of the software, apps and tools provided by PERI  (“Applications”), on the websites of PERI LLC, with registered office in 24th Floor Palace Tower, Silicon Oasis, Dubai United Arab Emirates [CL1] (“PERI”, “we” or “us”), in particular on www.peri.ae, including all language versions and national websites of PERI and including access to the Applications and access to the myPERI Portal at portal.peri.com (“Portal”). They also apply to the use of Applications that PERI makes available for download in download stores such as Apple AppStore or Google PlayStore for you as a User (“User” or “you”). PERI and the User are each referred to in these terms of use as a “Party” and jointly as the “Parties”. These Terms of Use shall also apply if the User accesses the Applications and/or the Portal via a redirection from an external website or via hyperlink from an external source. However, these Terms of Use shall only apply to the extent PERI hast not agreed otherwise with the User, for example in an order form confirmed by us.

Third-party applications. Furthermore, under certain circumstances, PERI enables the User to access third-party applications via the PERI websites and/or by using the Portal. PERI is not a contractual partner of the User for the provision of third-party applications. PERI merely provides the User with the opportunity to enter into a contractual relationship with the third-party provider for the use of the third-party application. The User has no claim to the procurement or conclusion of contracts with third parties. PERI is not authorised to accept legal declarations (Willenserklärungen) that are to be made to the third-party provider. PERI recommends that the User carefully read and retain the contractual terms and conditions of the third-party provider. For the use of the application of the third-party provider, the contractual terms and conditions of the respective third-party provider apply. Therefore, Users have claims for the use of or in connection with the use of the third-party provider’s applications exclusively against the third-party provider. These Terms of Use do not apply to the use of third-party applications.

Third-party download stores. If the User downloads the Applications from a third-party store, such as Apple AppStore or Google PlayStore, that store may additionally require the User to accept the Store’s terms and conditions or other contractual terms and conditions. PERI is not authorised to accept legal declarations to be made to the store. PERI recommends that the User carefully read and retain the contractual terms and conditions of the store. These Terms of Use do not apply to the download process from a third-party store.

Priority of these Terms of Use. These Terms of Use apply exclusively to all Applications and the Portal as well as to all addenda and changes to the Applications and/or the Portal, unless PERI has agreed otherwise with the User. Any conflicting, deviating or addendum to the User’s terms and conditions will not become part of the contract, even if PERI is aware of them, unless their validity is expressly agreed to in writing. Insofar as the User objects to these Terms of Use with reference to their own terms and conditions, the User’s own terms and conditions are hereby expressly objected to.

No guarantees. Representations in these Terms of Use, technical information, User instructions, product and project descriptions are not guarantees. The granting of a guarantee requires the express written confirmation of PERI.

Structure. Certain Applications that we make available to you are free of charge or include a free trial period before the Application becomes chargeable. We make our chargeable Applications available for use only against payment. PERI provides the Applications and the Portal for cloud-based operation as so-called Software-as-a-Service, unless expressly described otherwise in Appendix 2 (e.g. provision via download for local operation on the User’s terminal device as On-Premise Software). Our Terms of Use therefore have the following structure:

The provisions in Part A – General Terms of Use apply to all Users who use the Applications and/or the Portal.

For Users who use the Applications and/or the Portal exclusively free of charge, the provisions in Part B – Special Terms of Use Basic Services apply in addition to Part A – General Terms of Use.

For Users who use the Applications and/or the Portal in a manner that is not exclusively free of charge, the provisions in Part C – Special Terms of Use Premium Services apply in addition to Part A – General Terms of Use.

For Users who use On-Premise Software – whether for a fee or free of charge – the provisions in Part D – Special Terms of Use On-Premise Software apply in addition to Part A – General Terms of Use.

Terms of Use” means all terms set forth in Part A – General Terms of Use and, if applicable, Part B – Special Terms of Use Basic Services or Part C – Special Terms of Use Premium Services or Part D – Special Terms of Use On-Premise Software.

References to any provision of these Terms of Use shall refer to the relevant clause of Part A, B, C or D of the Terms of Use in which the reference is contained, unless expressly stated otherwise.

Part A – General Terms of Use


Scope

The provisions in Part A – General Terms of Use apply to all Users who use the Applications, On-Premise Software and/or the Portal.

Conclusion of contract

By completing the order process for the Basic Services by completing and submitting the order and accepting these Terms of Use by the User and activating the account or access data by PERI, PERI concludes a contract with the User for the free use of the Basic Services ordered by the User (“Basic User Relationship”). By completing the order process for the Premium Services by completing and submitting the order and accepting these Terms of Use by the User and activating the account or access data by PERI, PERI concludes a contract with the User for the use against payment of the Premium Services ordered by the User (“Premium User Relationship”). By completing the order process for the On-Premise software by completing and submitting the order and accepting these Terms of Use by the User and activating the account or access data by PERI, PERI concludes a contract with the User for the use of the On-Premise software ordered by the User – in accordance with the agreement in the context of the order – either against payment or free of charge (“On Premise Contract”).

If the ordering process takes place by email or in writing, the order form completed and signed by the User represents a binding offer by the User for the services specified in the order form in accordance with these Terms of Use; in this case, the contract for the Basic Usage Relationship or the Premium Usage Relationship is concluded when PERI sends the user name and access data to the email address of the User specified in the order form.

The Basic or Premium User Relationship or the On-Premise contract is personal and non-transferable.

The services are not aimed at natural persons who enter into a legal transaction for purposes that predominantly are outside of that person’s trade, business or profession.

If the User is a legal entity, the acting persons assure that they have sufficient authority to represent the respective legal entity.

Services from PERI

Within the framework of the Basic User Relationship, PERI provides the agreed Basic Services (“Basic Services”) described in more detail in Appendices 1 and 2, within the framework of the Premium User Relationship the agreed Premium Services (“Premium Services”) described in more detail in Appendices 1 and 2 and within the framework of the On-Premise Contract the On-Premise software services described in more detail in Appendix 2 (“On-Premise Software Services”). The Basic Services, Premium Services and On-Premise Software Services are collectively referred to as “Services”. Future versions of the services may include additional functionalities.

Intellectual property, rights and know-how

Subject to the rights granted under these Terms of Use, PERI reserves all rights and legal claims to the Services, Applications and the Portal as well as the associated intellectual property and know-how. The User recognises that they do not own or acquire any rights other than those expressly granted under these Terms of Use.

Use of subcontractors by PERI

PERI is authorised to use qualified subcontractors to perform the Services.

Duties of the User

The User assures that the User Content does not violate any intellectual property rights of third parties such as copyrights, trademark rights, rights to a name or otherwise protected rights.

The User is not authorised to enter or load harmful content such as viruses, Trojans and malware into the Applications and/or the Portal.

The User is obliged to refrain from any attempt, either themself or through unauthorised third parties, to retrieve information or data without authorisation, to intervene or allow unauthorised intervention in PERI programs, to penetrate or allow unauthorised intervention in PERI data networks, to use the Applications and/or the Portal in violation of the law, to investigate, exploit or test weak points in the Applications and/or the Portal, a PERI system or network or to violate PERI security or authentication mechanisms. PERI may monitor or check the use of the Applications and/or the Portal and Services by the User in order to control whether the User uses the Applications, Portal and Services in accordance with the contract.

If PERI requests the User to set up a user account in order to use the Services, the User is obliged to set up such a user account as instructed by PERI.

The User is expressly prohibited from forwarding access data to third parties and/or allowing third parties to use their personal access data.

In accordance with these Terms of Use, the User shall back up their User Content and the content and work results created in accordance with the contract in a permissible manner, regularly and in accordance with the risk, and shall create their own backup copies in order to ensure the reconstruction of the data and information in the event of loss.

Communication with Users

Within the framework of the Applications and the Portal and the provision of Services by PERI, it may be necessary for PERI to communicate with the User from time to time (e.g. to send e-mails). The User agrees to this communication.

This Clause 7 does not constitute any obligation on the part of PERI to provide certain communication tools within the framework of the Applications and/or the Portal.

Responsibility of the User with regard to external factors

The User is solely responsible for any unavailability or lack of usability, as well as for any other malfunction of the Applications, the Portal and/or the Services due to the defectiveness or incompatibility of software or hardware used by the User to use the Applications, the Portal and/or the Services, as well as for malfunctions due to lack of availability or the functioning of the Internet access used by the User.

In addition, the User is responsible for the services of third parties which the User uses to use the Applications, the Portal and/or the Services, in particular with regard to terminal equipment, software programmes, transmission paths or telecommunication services, as well as any disruptions caused by such third-party services.

Granting of rights to User Content

The User grants PERI for the duration of the Basic User Relationship, if applicable, or the Premium User Relationship, if applicable, the non-exclusive, royalty-free and sub-licensable right to use its User Content, which is necessary for PERI to provide Services to the User. This includes, among other things, the right to store such User Content, to edit it and to change its sequence, to convert it technically, to convert it into another format. PERI hereby accepts this granting of rights.

The User warrants that it is authorised to grant these rights to PERI.

Consequences if the User violates these terms and conditions of use

PERI expressly reserves the right to reject, block or, if necessary, delete User Content with immediate effect without stating reasons, in particular to terminate without notice User Content of Users that comes to PERI’s attention that violates these Terms of Use as well as the respective Basic User Relationship, if applicable.

Support

The User can send questions about Services and Applications to apps-tools.service@peri.de, and questions about the Portal and its use to customerservice@peri.ae[CL2] .

Data protection

PERI acts as the Controller (the responsible Party) for processing personal data received and generated during/for the use of the Applications, Services, or Portal according to these Terms of Use. Users can find detailed information on the processing of their personal data in the respective Privacy Notice, available at the bottom of the Portal, on the starting interface of the Application, or within the settings areas.

The User (whether as a legal entity or Corporate Customer) or their employer is solely responsible and liable for collecting and processing personal data (including the personal data of Invited Users) shared with PERI for the purpose of enabling their employees or authorized persons to use the Services, Applications, or Portal. PERI shall assume that they have complied with the applicable data protection laws, particularly regarding the lawfulness of the personal data shared with PERI and the obligation to inform and/or grant consent from their employees or authorized persons.

Confidentiality

The Parties are aware that they have access to certain confidential information of the other Party during the term of the Premium Services. “Confidential Information” means any information that (i) one Party has disclosed to the other, (ii) is not generally known or publicly available, (iii) relates to the activities of one Party, and (iv) has either been designated as confidential or should reasonably be considered confidential given the circumstances in which it is disclosed.

Each Party agrees to (i) use the Confidential Information disclosed by the other Party only to the extent permitted in these Terms of Use, (ii) keep the Confidential Information obtained by the other Party strictly confidential from knowledge and use by third parties, (iii) restrict access to the Confidential Information disclosed by the other Party to those of its Employees, representatives and/or any advisors who must have knowledge of such information and who have been bound in writing to keep such information confidential, and (iv) to surrender or destroy all Confidential Information disclosed by the other Party which is in its possession at the time of termination or expiry of the Premium User Agreement. The contractual confidentiality obligations shall continue to apply for two (2) years after termination of the Premium User Relationship.

The provisions of the Clauses 13.1 and 13.2 of this Part A – General Terms of Use shall not apply to Confidential Information which (i) is freely available or generally known at the time of disclosure, (ii) is freely available or generally known at no fault of the Recipient, or (iii) was lawfully transmitted to the recipient by persons who were not bound by confidentiality obligations in this respect, (iv) is already in the possession of the recipient at the time of disclosure without any confidentiality obligations being attached to it, (v) was developed independently by the recipient, or (vi) is approved for release or disclosure by the disclosing Party without restriction. Notwithstanding the aforementioned, either Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent necessary (i) to comply with a judicial or governmental order or otherwise to conform to the requirements of any mandatory statutory provisions, or (ii) to have a Party’s rights under this contract determined by a court of law, including any petitions necessary to do so.

Other

Minor amendments to the Terms of Use. PERI has the right to change insignificant provisions of the Terms of Use at any time, provided that such changes do not lead to a reorganisation of the user relationship as a whole. PERI will notify the User of the changes/additions in text form (in writing or electronically) at least 6 weeks before they take effect. If the User does not agree with the respective changes or addenda, they may object to the changes/additions with a deadline of at least one (1) week at the time of the intended coming into effect of the changes or addenda. The objection requires at least the text form. If the User does not object to the amended provisions within the aforementioned deadline, the amendments or addenda shall be deemed accepted. When notifying the User of intended changes and/or addenda, PERI will draw the User’s attention to the possibility of objection and the significance of the aforementioned deadline.

Waivers. Waivers with regard to the Basic User Relationship, the Premium User Relationship and these Terms of Use are only effective and binding if they are made in writing and duly signed by the waiving Party of the user relationship. Any waiver shall only constitute a waiver with respect to the specific matter governed thereby and shall in no way affect the rights of the waiving Party to the user relationship in any other respect or at any other time. Any delay or omission by any Party to the user relationship in exercising any right under these Terms of Use shall not be deemed a waiver of that right.

Assignment of rights. Without the prior, express written consent of PERI, the User is not authorised to assign its rights from the user relationship or to delegate its obligations from the user relationship; in the absence of such consent, any attempted assignment or delegation is void and ineffective. PERI may sell and assign all its rights arising from the user relationship to third parties. By concluding these Terms of Use, the User authorises PERI to disclose to third parties the information and documents required for the sale and assignment of such rights.

No contract for the benefit of third parties. The Parties to the user relationship recognise that, unless expressly provided otherwise in these Terms of Use, the provisions of the Terms of Use are for the exclusive benefit of the Parties to the user relationship. These Terms of Use do not imply, expressly or implicitly, the right of any third party, whether natural or legal persons, to enforce any provision of these Terms of Use.

Applicable law. All legal relationships between both Parties shall be governed exclusively by the applicable laws of the country where PERI has its registered office excluding the CISG [United Nations Convention on the International Sales of Goods] dated 11 April 1980.

Place of jurisdiction. The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connections with the contractual relationship is the registered office of PERI. PERI reserves the right to bring legal action at the User’s statutory place of jurisdiction.

Continued applicability clause. Should one or more provisions of these Terms of Use be or become invalid or unenforceable, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. In such a case, PERI and the User undertake to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid or enforceable provision that comes as close as possible to the economic intention. The same applies to the filling of contractual gaps.

Part B – Special Terms of Use Basic Services


Scope

The provisions in Part B – Special Terms of Use Basic Services apply in addition to the provisions in Part A – General Terms of Use to all Users who use the Applications free of charge. This includes the use of Applications that PERI makes available to the User free of charge in accordance with the information on the respective PERI website on which PERI provides the Application, including any agreed free test phase for free Applications.

User rights of use

PERI grants the User the worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable right to use the ordered Basic Services and the Contents and functions made available therein for the duration of the Basic User Relationship for the User’s own purposes described in Appendix 2.

For file exports according to the contract in accordance with Clause 2.3, this right of use is valid for an unlimited period of time.

The User also has the right, if interfaces are provided to the User for this purpose in the Application or Portal, to export Content and/or work results using these interfaces exclusively. In particular, however, the User is not permitted to sell, rent, lend, license to third parties or otherwise distribute, reproduce, copy, make publicly accessible, edit or translate, reverse engineer or otherwise modify the Applications, the Portal or Content therein in whole or in part. Any further use of the Applications, the Portal and the Contents made available therein is not permitted, unless expressly agreed in these Terms of Use or required by mandatory legal provisions.

Insofar as PERI enables the User to access data of the Applications, the Portal or the content entered or uploaded by the User in the Portal or Applications (“User Content”), PERI remains authorised to make changes to the structure of the User Content, data or data format at any time.

Insofar as PERI provides new versions, updates or upgrades or commissioned further developments of the Applications and/or the Portal within the framework of the Basic Services during the term of the Basic User Relationship, the above right of use applies to these in the same way.

Quality standard and rights of the User for defects

PERI provides the Basic Services with reasonable care and expertise and in accordance with customary industry standards and endeavours to make the Basic Services available to the User around the clock. However, PERI does not guarantee that the Basic Services are free from any errors and/or work without any interruptions. In particular, for Basic Services provided as Software-as-a-Service, as for all Services provided via the Internet, availability at all times cannot be guaranteed.

Furthermore, in particular if the security of network operation or the maintenance of network integrity is jeopardised, access to the Basic Services may be temporarily restricted in whole or in part. In particular, PERI reserves the right to temporarily disable the Basic Services for maintenance and organisational purposes, whereby PERI will announce such maintenance work with a reasonable prior notice in the Applications or the Portal or by means of individual notifications (e.g. push messages). This notice period shall not be observed if maintenance work is required at short notice for urgent reasons or in connection with updates and patches, modifications or other software used as part of the Basic Services, which may lead to brief interruptions in the operation of the Basic Services.

The data and calculations provided as part of the Basic Services are compiled to the best of our knowledge and with the necessary care on the basis of existing sources. Only the customary duty of care is agreed as a standard of care with regard to the factual correctness of information and data which the User themself has ascertained and created within the framework of the Premium Services.

The provisions in this Clause 3 do not restrict the User’s rights due to any fraudulently concealed defects.

Limitation of liability

The liability of PERI and its vicarious agents for damages due to negligence, for whatever legal reason, is excluded. This means that the liability of PERI and its vicarious agents for gross negligence, regardless of the legal grounds, is expressly excluded.

The aforementioned limitations of liability shall not apply in cases of mandatory statutory liability (in particular under the Product Liability Act), in cases of intent or in cases of culpably caused bodily injury. Furthermore, they shall not apply if and insofar as PERI has assumed a guarantee.

Clauses 4.1 and 4.2 apply accordingly to the liability of PERI and its vicarious agents for futile expenditure.

The User is obliged to take appropriate measures to prevent and reduce damage.

Term of the Basic User Relationship and termination

Contractual term. The Basic User Relationship begins upon conclusion of the contract and ends on the date on which all Basic Services and any trial period have expired or been terminated (“Term of the Basic User Relationship”). The account will be deactivated after termination of the Basic User Relationship. PERI stores the User Content and material lists created by the User and other work results created by the User through the contractual use of the Basic Services until the end of the Basic User Relationship. The User is responsible for making backup copies of this User Content and/or other work results to the extent permitted by these terms and conditions of use before termination of the Basic User Relationship.

Term of Basic Services. The Basic Services have an unlimited term, beginning with the term of the Basic Usage Relationship, unless otherwise agreed in the ordering process (“Term of Basic Services”). The Term of Basic Services can be terminated by PERI and the User at any time without giving reasons, unless otherwise agreed in the ordering process. The termination must be made in text form. If PERI provides the User with an account deletion function in their account, the User can also terminate the contract by activating this account deletion function instead of making a declaration in text form.

Term of Trial Periods. The free trial period of one or more Basic Services has a term of two weeks, beginning with the term of the Basic User Relationship, unless otherwise agreed in the ordering process (“Term of the Trial Period”). The Term of the Trial Period can be terminated by PERI and by the User at any time in text form without giving reasons. At the end of the agreed trial period, the access to the Application and/or the Portal assigned to the User will be deactivated and any individual settings will be deleted. If, after the end of the trial period, the User concludes a user relationship for full access to the Basic Services, the term of which immediately follows the Term of the Trial Period, the User may, during the Term of the subsequent Basic User Relationship, continue to use any settings and work results made during the trial period.

The right to extraordinary termination by PERI and by the User remains unaffected.

Part C – Special Terms of Use Premium Services


Scope

General. The provisions in Part C – Special Terms of Use Premium Services apply in addition to the provisions in Part A – General Terms of Use to all Users who use the Applications and/or the Portal not exclusively free of charge. This includes the use of Applications and the Portal, insofar as PERI does not exclusively make these available to the User free of charge according to the information on the respective PERI website on which PERI provides the Application, including any agreed free trial period.

Corporate Customers. PERI shall provide Corporate Customers with Premium Services only against payment (with regard to provisions that are specifically applicable to these Users, also referred to as “Corporate Customer”), as described under Clause 4 in more detail.

User rights of use

For the duration of the Premium User Relationship, PERI grants the User the worldwide, remunerated, non-exclusive right, which can be sublicensed to Invited Users to the extent of the package size ordered in each case, to use the ordered Premium Services and the Content and functions made available therein for their own purposes as described in Appendix 2.

In the case of an agreed free trial period, notwithstanding Clause 2.1, for the agreed duration of the trial period PERI grants the User the worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive right, which can be sublicensed to Invited Users to the extent of the package size ordered in each case, to use the ordered Premium Services and the Content and functions made available therein for the own purposes described in Appendix 2, so that the User can determine whether they wish to conclude an agreement on full access to the Applications and/or the Portal.

For file exports according to the contract in accordance with Clause 2.4, this right of use is valid for an unlimited period of time.

This also includes the right, if the User is provided with interfaces for this purpose in the Application or Portal, to export Content and/or work results using these interfaces exclusively. In particular, however, the User is not permitted to sell, rent, lend, license to third parties or otherwise distribute, reproduce, copy, make publicly accessible, edit or translate, reverse engineer or otherwise modify the Applications, the Portal or Content therein in whole or in part. Any further use of the Applications, the Portal and the Contents made available thereon is not permitted, unless expressly agreed in these Terms of Use or required by mandatory legal provisions.

Insofar as PERI enables the User to access data of the Applications, the Portal or the content entered or uploaded by the User as a User into the Applications or the Portal (“User Content”), PERI remains authorised to make changes to the structure of the User Content, data or the data format at any time.

Insofar as PERI provides new versions, updates or upgrades or commissioned further developments of the Applications and/or the Portal within the framework of the Basic Services during the Term of the Premium User Relationship, the above right of use applies to these in the same way.

Remuneration, invoicing and payment

The User is obliged to pay the fees agreed in the framework of the agreement for the Premium Services in Euro or in the different currency specified in the order annually in advance in accordance with Clause 3.4.

The use of the Application and/or the Portal is free of charge for the User – for clarification: including Corporate Customers – in relation to PERI during an agreed Term of the Trial Period.

Unless otherwise expressly agreed in the respective order, the following applies: PERI will invoice the fees owed by the User in accordance with Clause 3.1 in connection with the respective order annually during the Term of the Premium User Relationship. Invoicing takes place in advance for the following year at the end of each calendar year; if the Term of the Premium User Relationship begins during the course of the year, invoicing for the current calendar year takes place for the first time with the invoice date of the first day of the Term of the Premium User Relationship. The User accepts an electronic invoice. Service credits will be deducted from the invoice as agreed in Appendix 1.

Unless otherwise expressly agreed in the respective order, the following applies: Each invoice amount is due 30 calendar days after the invoice date.

All fees are exclusive of VAT and any other applicable tax, the payment of which is the sole responsibility of the User.

The User shall be in default of payment if they do not pay the invoice amount within 30 calendar days of the invoice date. The interest during time of default is 8% percentage points above the base rate of interest per year from the due date.

If the User objects to an invoice or any other amount due in accordance with the usage relationship, they shall notify PERI of this at least in text form within 30 calendar days of receipt of the invoice, stating the exact reasons for the objection (“Objected Invoice”). With the exception of the Objected Invoice, all invoices and amounts due shall be deemed recognised and payable without deduction. PERI will not assert the rights under Clause 3.6 with regard to charges that are the subject of a justified objection by the User.

Special obligations of Corporate Customers

As part of the ordering process, PERI is authorised to request the Corporate Customer to appoint an administrator to manage the Corporate Customer’s access to the Premium Services. If an administrator was appointed during the ordering process, the following applies:

If the responsibility of the administrator changes at the Corporate Customer, the Corporate Customer is obliged to inform PERI of this immediately and at least in text form. PERI assigns a new personalised administrator access with new administrator rights for the new administrator and deletes or anonymises the no longer active personalised administrator access.

Within the framework of the functions provided by PERI in the Applications or on the Portal and within the scope of the agreed package size, the Corporate Customer can allow, for example through its administrator, its Employees or Employees of companies affiliated with the Corporate Customers (“Employees”) to access and use the functionalities of the Premium Services as an end user (“Invited User”); the Premium User Relationship of the Corporate Customer is exclusively in this respect a contract for the benefit of third parties. Restrictions on the number of Invited Users may result from the order and package size.

The Corporate Customer ensures that only qualified Employees are invited who have the necessary knowledge to use the respective Application and/or Portal.

When using the Applications and the Portal, the Corporate Customer is obliged to comply with the obligations towards PERI in accordance with these Terms of Use by its own Invited Users and its own administrator and to impose the same obligations on them with regard to use as are agreed in these Terms of Use. For this purpose, PERI provides the Corporate Customer with an example of “Guidelines for Administrators and Invited Users”, which are attached to these Terms of Use as Appendix 3. These Terms of Use for Invited Users are of a general nature only. They are not part of the Services owed by PERI and must be adapted by the Corporate Customers in individual cases. The Corporate Customer shall take all reasonable steps to ensure that Invited Users comply with these provisions.

The Corporate Customer recognises that it is responsible to PERI for fault on the part of the Invited Users and the administrator to the same extent as its own fault.

The Corporate Customer is responsible for all actions and omissions that are performed using its access protocols.

User’s claims for defects

PERI endeavours to ensure the proper operation of the Premium Services at all times with appropriate care and expertise and in accordance with customary industry standards. However, PERI does not guarantee freedom from defects or uninterrupted availability and usability of the Premium Services. The Service Level Agreement in Appendix 1 describes the measurable standards of the Premium Services and the rights of the User in cases where these standards are not met. The rights according to the Service Level Agreement in Appendix 1 are the User’s exclusive claims for defects. Other legal and contractual claims for defects are excluded. The provisions in this Clause 5.1 do not limit the User’s rights to compensation for damages and for any fraudulently concealed defects. Clause 6 remains unaffected.

The data and calculations provided as part of the Premium Services are compiled to the best of our knowledge and with the necessary care on the basis of existing sources. Only the customary duty of care is agreed as a standard of care with regard to the factual correctness of information and data determined and created by the User within the framework of the Premium Services.

The Corporate Customer informs PERI of any change in their name or company name, their place of residence or business, their invoice address, their legal form or their bank details. This notification must be made immediately and at least in text form.

Limitation of liability

PERI’s liability for damages due to slight and gross negligence, irrespective of the legal grounds, is limited as follows: 

In the event of a breach of material obligations arising from the contractual relationship, PERI’s liability is limited to the amount of foreseeable damage typical for the contract; and

PERI is not liable for slight negligence otherwise.

Essential duties from the obligation are such duties according to this Premium User Relationship, the fulfilment of which makes the proper implementation of this Premium User Relationship possible in the first place and on which the User may regularly rely.

PERI and the User agree that the normally foreseeable damages under Clause 6.1.1 are limited to the amounts that the User has paid to PERI or is obliged to pay to PERI in the 12 months before the claim arises.

Irrespective of the legal grounds, PERI is not liable for indirect economic losses, lost profits, lost turnover or business, agreements or contracts not concluded, lost expected profits, lost use of or damage to software, data or information or the loss of or damage to goodwill or other consequential losses arising from or in connection with the Premium User Relationship.

Clauses 6.1 to 6.4 apply accordingly to the liability of PERI for futile expenditure (vergebliche Aufwendungen).

The limitations of liability in Clauses 6.1 to 6.5 shall not apply in cases of mandatory statutory liability (in particular under the Product Liability Act), in cases of malice, intent or culpably caused physical injury. Furthermore, they shall not apply if and insofar as PERI has assumed a guarantee.

The User is obliged to take reasonable measures to prevent and mitigate damage, for example by changing passwords when Invited Users change.

Term of the Premium User Relationship and termination

Contractual term. The Premium User Relationship begins with the conclusion of the contract and is effective until the date on which all Premium Services and any trial period have expired or been terminated (“Term of the Premium User Relationship”). After termination of the Premium User Relationship, the User’s account, including all accounts of their Invited Users and their administrator, will be deactivated. PERI stores the User Content and material lists created by the User and other work results created by the User through the contractual use of the Premium Services until the termination of the Premium User Relationship. The User is responsible for making backup copies of this User Content and/or other work results to the extent permitted under these Terms of Use before termination of the Premium User Relationship.

Term of Premium Services. The Premium Services have an unlimited term, beginning with the Term of the Premium User Relationship, unless otherwise agreed in the order (“Term of Premium Services”). The Premium User Relationship can be terminated by PERI and the User at the end of a month without stating reasons with further notice of three (3) months, unless otherwise agreed in the order (“Notice Period of Premium Services”)

Term of the Trial Periods. The free trial period of one or more Premium Services shall have a term of six months, beginning with the Term of the Premium User Agreement, unless otherwise agreed in the order (“Term of the Trial Period”). The Term of the Trial Period can be terminated by PERI at any time in text form without giving reasons. At the end of the agreed trial period, the access to the Application and/or the Portal assigned to the User will be deactivated and any individual settings will be deleted. If, after the end of the trial period, the User concludes a user relationship for full access to the Premium Services, the term of which immediately follows the Term of the Trial Period, the User may, during the Term of the subsequent Premium User Relationship, continue to use any settings and work results made during the trial period.

The right to extraordinary termination by PERI and by the User remains unaffected.

Exemption

If third parties assert claims against PERI due to a breach of the provisions in Clause 4 by the User and/or Clause 6 of Part A – General Terms of Use by the User and/or its Invited User, PERI will notify the User of these claims immediately.

The User shall indemnify PERI against all claims (including justified lawyers’ fees) that third parties, including authorities, assert against PERI or against the User in this connection.

PERI cooperates with the User and leaves the defence or settlement of the claim to the User. In the event of claims by authorities, the User cooperates with PERI and, if necessary, leaves the defence or settlement of the claim to PERI.

If such a claim exists or if such a violation of rights appears possible, the User undertakes to immediately cease the violation of the respective contractual obligation, to take all necessary and reasonable actions to avoid further violations or other damages and to take measures to avoid similar violations in the future. If User Content is affected, this may involve taking certain User Content offline.

Part D – Special Terms of Use On-Premise Software


Scope

The Provisions in Part D – Special Terms of Use On-Premise Software apply in addition to the provisions in Part A – General Terms of Use to all Users who use certain On-Premise Software. This includes the use of On-Premise software against payment and free of charge, insofar as PERI provides this to the User as a download or for On-Premise use, i.e. for local operation on the User’s terminal device, in accordance with the information in Appendix 2 including any agreed trial period against payment or free of charge.

User rights of use

Unless otherwise agreed within the framework of the agreement, PERI grants the User the worldwide, perpetual, non-exclusive, sub-licensable – to the extent of the respective package size in accordance with clause 2.3 and the order – right to use the ordered On-Premise software, the Contents and functions made available therein and contractual file exports in accordance with clause 2.4 for the User’s own purposes described in Appendix 2. Insofar as the On-Premise Software is not exclusively made available to the User free of charge (e.g. within the scope of a free trial period) in accordance with the respective order, this right of use is a right against payment and is granted to the User against and at the time of receipt of the agreed payment. If the On-Premise Software is expressly made available to the User free of charge (e.g. within the scope of a free trial period) in accordance with the respective order, this right of use is free of charge and is granted to the User at the time the contract is concluded.

In the case of an agreed free trial period, this right of use is limited to the agreed Term of the Trial Period and is granted to the User for the purpose of enabling the User to determine whether the User wishes to enter into an agreement on full access to the On-Premise Software for the User’s own purposes described in Appendix 2

The User is authorised to install the On-Premise Software on one (1) computer or other terminal device as a single-User version and for one end user, unless otherwise expressly agreed in the order. The On-Premise software is installed and used when it is loaded into the main memory (RAM) or stored on a permanent memory (e.g. hard disk, CD-ROM, DVD, Blu-ray disc, USB stick, etc.) of the computer. Furthermore, the User is authorised to make one (1) copy of the On-Premise Software handed over to the User exclusively for their own use as a backup copy; this includes in particular the copying of the On-Premise Software handed over to the User to any storage medium (e.g. hard disk, CD-ROM, DVD, Blu-ray disc, USB stick, etc.).

This also includes the right, if interfaces for this purpose are provided to the User in the On-Premise software, to export Content and/or work results using these interfaces exclusively. In particular, however, the User is not permitted to sell, rent, lend, license to third parties or otherwise distribute, reproduce, copy, make publicly available, edit or translate, reverse engineer or otherwise modify the On-Premise software or the Content therein in whole or in part. Any further use of the Applications, the Portal and the Contents made available thereon is not permitted, unless expressly agreed in these Terms of Use or required by mandatory legal provisions.

Insofar as PERI enables the User to access data of the On-Premise software or the content entered or loaded into the On-Premise software by the User as a User (“User Content”), PERI remains authorised to make changes to the structure of the User Content, data or the data format at any time, in particular through preset programming, updates and/or upgrades.

The User can obtain available new versions, updates or upgrades from PERI against separate remuneration. The purchase of available new versions, updates or upgrades is only possible if a maximum of two (2) new releases of the On-Premise Software have been released since the originally ordered version of the On-Premise Software. If more than two (2) new releases of the On-Premise Software have already been published, the User may no longer obtain new versions, updates or upgrades of this version. If PERI provides the User with new versions, updates or upgrades or commissioned further developments of the On-Premise software, the above right of use applies to these in the same way.

Remuneration, invoicing and payment

The User is obligated to pay the fees for the On-Premise Software services agreed upon in the agreement in Euro or the different currency specified in the order in accordance with Clause 3.4.

The use of the ordered On-Premise software is free of charge for the User in relation to PERI for an agreed Term of the Trial Period.

Unless otherwise expressly agreed in the respective order, the following applies: PERI settles the charges owed by the User in accordance with Clause 3.1 in connection with the respective order upon delivery of the ordered On-Premise software, or, in the case of a preceding free trial period, upon granting full access to the On-Premise software or activation of the User’s access data.

Unless otherwise expressly agreed in the respective order, the following applies: Each invoice amount is due 30 calendar days after the invoice date.

All fees are exclusive of VAT and any other applicable tax, the payment of which is the sole responsibility of the User.

The User shall be in default of payment if they do not pay the invoice amount within 30 calendar days of the invoice date. The interest during time of default is 8% percentage points above the base rate of interest per year from the due date.

If the User objects to an invoice or another contractually owed and due amount, they shall notify PERI of this within 30 calendar days of receipt of the invoice, stating the exact reasons for the objection at least in text form (“Objected Invoice”). With the exception of the Objected Invoice, all invoices and amounts due shall be deemed recognised and payable without deduction. PERI will not assert the rights under Clause 3.6 with regard to charges that are the subject of a justified complaint by the User.

Special obligations of the User for On-Premise Software

When obtaining a new version, update or upgrade of the ordered On-Premise Software, the User is obligated to return the previously used version of the On-Premise Software – if applicable – within four (4) weeks after delivery of the new version, update or upgrade and to completely delete it on all data carriers and in all data memories.

If the User has entered into a user relationship with PERI regarding the use of the Portal, PERI will make new versions, updates and/or upgrades available to the User and ordered in accordance with Clause 2.6 available for download exclusively via the Portal or indicate their availability; the User is obliged to download these new versions, updates and/or upgrades from the Portal in accordance with the provisions of Clause 4.1 and, in the event of an indication of their availability, to request them separately from PERI if the updates and/or upgrades are not made directly available on the Portal.

The User is responsible for all actions and omissions made using their access protocols and rights of use.

User’s claims for defects

The data and calculations provided within the framework of the On-Premise software are compiled to the best of our knowledge and with the necessary care on the basis of existing sources. Only the customary duty of care is agreed upon as a standard of care with regard to the factual correctness of information and data determined and created by the User themself within the scope of the On-Premise software.

If the On-Premise software is provided to the User free of charge (e.g. within the framework of a free trial period), liability for material defects and defects of title of the information, On-Premise software, calculation results and graphic representations, in particular for their correctness, freedom from errors, freedom from property rights and copyrights of third parties, completeness and/or usability – except in the case of intent, malice or takeover of a guarantee – is excluded.

If the software is made available to the User against payment, the following applies:

The User must check the On-Premise software for obvious defects immediately upon receipt and, if such defects are present, notify PERI immediately, at least in text form, otherwise claims for such defects are excluded. The same shall apply accordingly if such a defect becomes apparent later.

With the exception of claims for damages, claims for defects due to material defects shall become time-barred after one year. In case of delivery on a data carrier, the limitation period begins with the delivery of the On-Premise Software, in case of delivery as download after notification and activation of the access data for the download area.

Apart from that, the User’s claims for defects shall be governed by the statutory provisions.

Limitation of liability

PERI’s liability for damages due to slight and gross negligence, irrespective of the legal grounds, is limited as follows: 

In the event of a breach of material obligations arising from the contractual relationship, PERI’s liability is limited to the amount of foreseeable damage typical for the contract; and

PERI is not liable for slight negligence otherwise.

Essential duties arising from the contractual obligation are such duties under this On-Premise contract, the fulfilment of which makes the proper execution of this On-Premise contract possible in the first place and on which the User may regularly rely.

PERI and the User agree that the usually foreseeable damages under Clause 6.1.1 are limited to the remuneration for the purchase of the On-Premise software that the User paid to PERI before the claim arose or that the User is obliged to pay to PERI.

Irrespective of the legal grounds, PERI is not liable for indirect economic loss, loss of profit, loss of turnover or business, agreements or contracts not concluded, loss of expected profit, loss of use of or damage to software, data or information or the loss of or damage to goodwill or other consequential damages arising from or in connection with the On-Premise software contract.

Clauses 6.1 to 6.4 apply accordingly to the liability of PERI for futile expenditure.

The limitations of liability in Clauses 6.1 to 6.5 shall not apply in cases of mandatory statutory liability (in particular under the Product Liability Act), in cases of malice, intent or culpably caused physical injury. Furthermore, they shall not apply if and insofar as PERI has assumed a guarantee.

The User is obliged to take appropriate measures to prevent and reduce damage.

Term of Trial Periods

The free trial period of the On-Premise Software has a duration of six (6) months, beginning with the conclusion of the On-Premise contract, unless otherwise agreed in the order (“Term of the Trial Period”). The Term of the Trial Period can be terminated by PERI at any time in text form without giving reasons. At the end of the agreed trial period, the User must return the On-Premise Software used during the trial period – if applicable – and completely delete it on all data carriers and in all data storage devices, unless an On-Premise agreement on full access is concluded. If the User concludes an On-Premise contract for full access to the On-Premise software immediately after the end of the trial period, the User may, during the term of a subsequent On-Premise contract, continue to use any settings and work results made during the trial period.

The right to extraordinary terminate the Term of the Trial Period by PERI and by the User remains unaffected.

Exemption

If third parties assert claims against PERI due to a violation of the provisions in Clause 4 by the User and/or Clause 6 of Part A – General Terms of Use by the User, PERI will notify the User of these claims immediately.

The User shall indemnify PERI against all claims (including justified lawyers’ fees) that third parties, including authorities, assert against PERI or against the User in this connection.

PERI cooperates with the User and leaves the defence or settlement of the claim to the User. In the event of claims by authorities, the User cooperates with PERI and, if necessary, leaves the defence or settlement of the claim to PERI.

If such a claim exists or if such a violation of rights appears possible, the User undertakes to immediately cease the violation of the respective contractual obligation, to take all necessary and reasonable actions to avoid further violations or other damages and to take measures to avoid similar violations in the future. If User Content is affected, this may involve taking certain User Content offline.

Appendices:


Service Description

Basic Services

Subject of the Basic Services

The subject of the Basic Services are the Applications agreed free of charge in the order according to Appendix 2.

Trial periods

The subject of the Basic Services within the scope of a trial period are the Applications agreed free of charge in the order in accordance with Appendix 2 for test purposes.

Premium Services

Subject of the Premium Services

The subject of the Premium Services are the Applications as agreed in the order and/or the agreed access to the Portal; these Applications and the Portal are described in detail in Appendix 2.

Trial periods

The subject of the Premium Services within the scope of a trial period are the Applications for test purposes as agreed in the order; These Applications and the Portal are described in more detail in Appendix 2.

Service Level Agreement

PERI provides the Premium Services according to the Service Levels. The Service Levels enable the User to control and monitor the quality and timeliness of the Premium Services provided by PERI. The Service Level for the Premium Services is defined as follows:

System Availability (Premium Services) per year [average availability]

Service Level

98% availability

Calculation

The System Availability is calculated as follows:

 

System Availability (%) = (Annual Total Time – Unplanned Downtime) / Annual Total Time

 

“Availability” is the ability of the User or its Invited Users to access the functionalities of the ordered Applications and the ordered Portal access, as agreed in the Terms of Use.

“Planned Downtime” is the total time (in minutes) in a calendar year during which the Applications or Portal are unavailable due to scheduled system maintenance or other planned downtime. PERI will make all reasonable efforts to carry out scheduled system maintenance between 1:00 and 5:00 GMT and to give reasonable notice of such system maintenance.

“System Availability”, in relation to Availability in a calendar year, means the ratio, expressed as a percentage, resulting from subtracting the Unplanned Downtime in that year from the Total Time in that year and then dividing the difference thus obtained by the Total Time in that year (see formula above).

“Annual Total Time” means all minutes of the relevant calendar year during the Term of the Basic Services.

“Unplanned Downtime” is the total time (in minutes) of unavailability in a calendar year without the planned downtime and without downtime due to circumstances beyond the control of PERI. These circumstances include in particular (i) breach of any provision of the Terms of Use by the User and/or its Invited Users, (ii) failure of the User and/or its Invited Users to comply with any provision of this SLA, (iii) incompatibility of any equipment or software of the User and/or its Invited Users with the agreed requirements for use of the Services, (iv) defective or insufficient system performance or equipment of the User and/or its Invited Users, (v) use of the Services by the User and/or its Invited Users in excess of the agreed volume (i.e. two levels or more), or (vi) force majeure.

This written claim shall contain precise details of the days, times and duration of any claimed Unplanned Downtime. If PERI, after a check, accepts the written claim for a Service Credit, PERI will inform the User that the relevant Service Credit will be offset against the fees paid by the User for Premium Services in the next invoice for the Premium Services. If the User does not claim a Service Credit on time, their claim to a Service Credit for the billing period in question expires.

 

Measurement and reporting

                System monitoring and measurement: PERI ensures continuous monitoring of the Service Levels. All measurements of Service Levels are made on an annual basis for each calendar year during the term of the Premium User Relationship.

                System performance reports: At the request of the client, PERI provides annual reports on the measurement of Unplanned Downtimes and the calculation of System Availability for the relevant period of the previous year. If the User has complaints regarding a measurement or other information listed in this report, they must notify PERI of these complaints in writing within 5 calendar days of receipt of the report, whereby the accuracy of the report is deemed sufficient if no such notification is made by the User. Any such notification shall specify the measurements complained of and describe in detail the nature of the complaint. PERI and the User undertake to settle such differences of opinion regarding Service Levels and/or associated measurements as far as possible and promptly by mutual agreement.

 

Requirements to be met by the User

                System requirements: The service standards listed in this SLA assume that the User and their Invited Users, if applicable, meet the system requirements listed in the Terms of Use.

                Additional obligations of the User: Unless otherwise agreed in the Terms of Use or in a separate, written support agreement, the User is responsible for (i) the maintenance and support of their computer networks, servers, software and resources used for the use of the Premium Services or services for such maintenance and support, (ii) the correct configuration of their systems in accordance with the access protocols and (iii) the Internet connection for access to the Premium Services.

                Report on Unplanned Downtime: The User must inform PERI immediately in the event of Unplanned Downtime. The beginning of an Unplanned Downtime is deemed to be the time at which PERI receives the detailed notification from the User or the time at which PERI first becomes aware of the Unplanned Downtime.

                Consequences of non-performance by the User: PERI is released from the fulfilment of its obligations set out in this SLA if it is unable to fulfil these obligations in whole or in part because the User and/or one or more of its Invited Users have not fulfilled the contractually agreed requirements or other obligations to cooperate.
