1) Scope

1.1 These general terms and conditions (hereinafter "GTC") of Sven Gillert, acting under "New World Records" (hereinafter "provider"), apply to all contracts that an entrepreneur (hereinafter "customer") with the provider with regard to the provider completes the services presented on its website. The inclusion of the customer's own conditions is hereby contradicted, unless otherwise agreed.

 

1.2 Entrepreneur within the meaning of these terms and conditions is a natural or legal person or a legal partnership who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

 

1.3 These terms and conditions also apply exclusively if the provider carries out the service for the customer without any particular reservation, knowing that the customer's terms and conditions conflict with or deviate from these terms and conditions.

 

2) Services of the provider

2.1 Establishment and provision of an online shop

The provider sets up an online shop for the customer, whereby the customer can choose from various shop designs specifically specified by the provider. To fulfill its contractual obligations, the provider can use standard software that is provided to him by third parties for these purposes. The provider is responsible for obtaining the necessary usage rights. The content and scope of the owed service of the provider result from the respective service description on the website of the provider. After setting up the online shop, it is saved by the provider on a server and made available to the customer. The customer can edit the content of the online shop set up for him via a password-protected administration area, but cannot influence basic design elements such as background colors, proportions, page structure, etc. The editing options allow in particular the insertion and deletion of pages, the necessary adaptation of the navigation, the exchange and insertion of images and graphics in dedicated and created page areas, text changes and the insertion of hyperlinks. The respective service description on the provider's website is decisive for the quality of the shop software provided by the provider. The provider does not owe any further quality of the software.

 

2.2 Maintenance of the shop software

The provider takes care of the maintenance of the shop software described in more detail in the service description on his website. Maintenance includes maintaining and restoring the operational readiness of the software, updating the software (updates), documenting the work carried out, - individual advice to the customer by phone or email, periodic maintenance services such as software tests, etc. Not In particular, the instruction and training of the customer's staff, the change of hardware or the customer's operating system as well as individual adjustments to the software are owed. This also applies to the elimination of malfunctions and damage caused by incorrect operation on the part of the customer, faulty hardware, an interruption in the power supply, the effects of third parties or force majeure.

 

2.3 hosting

The online shop is hosted by the provider, whereby the provider can use the services of third parties to fulfill his contractual obligations. The content is kept available on a server under an Internet domain assigned to the customer for retrieval via the Internet. The provider's services for the transmission of data are limited solely to data communication between the transfer point operated by the provider of its own data communication network to the Internet and the server provided for the customer. It is not possible for the provider to influence the data traffic outside of its own communication network. Successful forwarding of information from or to the computer requesting the content is therefore not owed in this respect. The provider's hosting service is offered subject to availability. 100 percent availability cannot be technically achieved and therefore cannot be guaranteed to the customer by the provider. However, the provider tries to keep the service available as constantly as possible. In particular, maintenance, security or capacity issues as well as events that are beyond the control of the provider (disruptions in public communication networks, power outages, etc.) can lead to disruptions or to the temporary shutdown of the service. The provider provides the aforementioned services with a total availability of 98. The availability is calculated on the basis of the time allotted to the respective calendar month in the contract period, minus the maintenance times. As far as possible, the provider will carry out the maintenance work in times of low usage. The content of the storage space intended for the customer is regularly backed up by the provider. Details on the frequency and procedure for securing can be found in the provider's description of services. The customer has no right to the surrender of one of the backup media, but only to the transfer of the saved content back to the server. The provider is entitled to adapt the hardware and software used to provide the services to the current state of the art. If such an adjustment results in additional requirements for the content stored on the server for the customer in order to guarantee the performance of the provider's services, the provider will inform the customer of these additional requirements in good time. In this case, the customer must inform the provider at least four weeks before the changeover date whether he will adapt his content to the additional requirements in good time - i.e. no later than three working days before the changeover time. If the customer refuses to adapt his content or does not declare himself / herself to this to the provider within the aforementioned period, the provider can terminate the contractual relationship with effect from the time of the changeover.

 

2.4 Procurement of an internet domain The provider also takes on the procurement of the internet domain (s) under which the online shop is to be made available. For this purpose, the customer has to name the Internet domain (s) he / she wants. The provider assumes no liability for the availability of the desired domain (s) or the non-infringement of third-party rights (e.g. name, trademark or title rights) by registering the desired domain (s) on the customer. If the desired domain (s) should no longer be available, the provider will inform the customer immediately and submit up to three alternative suggestions that come as close as possible to the originally desired domain. The customer must then decide on one of the alternative proposals within a reasonable period set by the provider. If the customer allows the reasonable deadline set by the provider to pass without result, the provider is entitled to select a domain for the customer. The provider is not responsible for obtaining rights to domains already registered for third parties by the responsible registry. The integration of an external domain that is managed by another provider is not permitted. The provider has to register the domain in the name and for the account of the customer. In particular, when selecting the domain name and the registration office, as well as negotiating the conditions, the provider must independently look after the customer's financial interests and use his expertise in the customer's service. On request, he must provide the customer with information and give an account of the status and progress of his undertakings in this matter at any time. All rights and naming rights acquired on the domain lie with the customer.

However, he must always take the customer's rights into account.

6.1 The customer must provide the provider with all the content required to set up the online shop such as texts, images, videos in the file formats and file sizes specified by the provider on its website. The customer is solely responsible for the procurement and acquisition of rights to this content.

6.4 The customer exempts the provider from all claims that third parties may assert against the provider due to infringement of their rights due to content stored on the server by the customer.

The provider will inform the customer about this measure immediately.
