These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of Anfang (the “Service”), operated by Philip Käfer (private individual) (“we”, “us”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you use the Service on behalf of an organisation, you confirm that you are authorised to bind that organisation.
1. The Service
Anfang is a white-label company homepage: a branded start page where an organisation can collect tools, links and apps and present them to its members, personalised by department, role and user. We continuously develop the Service and may add, change or remove features, provided the core functionality you pay for is not materially reduced during a paid term.
2. Accounts
You must provide accurate registration details and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for activity that occurs under your account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorised use. You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Service.
3. Plans, fees and billing
- Paid plans are billed in advance for the chosen billing period (e.g. monthly or yearly) at the prices shown at the time of purchase. All prices are final prices; as a small business under § 19 of the German VAT Act (UStG), no VAT is shown.
- Subscriptions renew automatically for the same period unless cancelled before the end of the current period. We state the renewal date and price clearly in your billing settings.
- You can cancel at any time from your account settings; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period. We do not use hidden fees or make cancellation harder than signing up.
- If we change prices, we will give you reasonable advance notice. Price changes apply from your next renewal, and you may cancel before they take effect.
- Statutory withdrawal rights for consumers, where applicable, remain unaffected.
4. Free plans and trials
We may offer a free plan or trial. Free plans are provided “as is” and may have feature or usage limits, and we may change or discontinue them with reasonable notice.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Service unlawfully or to store or distribute unlawful content;
- infringe the intellectual property or privacy rights of others;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service, other tenants’ data, or its underlying systems;
- disrupt or overload the Service, or circumvent usage limits or security measures;
- resell or provide the Service to third parties except as expressly permitted.
6. Your content and data
You retain all rights to the content, links and data you add to your workspace (“Customer Content”). You grant us a limited, worldwide licence to host, process and display Customer Content solely to operate and provide the Service to you. We do not sell your data. Where we process personal data on your behalf, the Data Processing Agreement (DPA) and our Privacy Policy apply.
7. Our intellectual property
The Service, including its software, design and trademarks, is owned by us or our licensors. These Terms do not transfer any of our intellectual property to you beyond the limited right to use the Service as agreed.
8. Availability
We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. Maintenance, updates, or factors outside our reasonable control may cause downtime. Any agreed service levels, if applicable, are set out in a separate Service Level Agreement.
9. Warranties and disclaimers
We provide the Service with reasonable care and skill. To the extent permitted by law, and except as expressly stated, the Service is provided “as is” and we do not warrant that it will be error-free or meet every requirement. Statutory warranty rights remain unaffected.
10. Limitation of liability
We are liable without limitation for damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and under mandatory statutory liability (e.g. product liability law). For slight negligence, we are liable only for breach of an essential contractual obligation (an obligation whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible and on whose observance you may regularly rely), and in that case our liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. Any further liability is excluded.
11. Term and termination
- These Terms apply for as long as you use the Service.
- You may terminate by cancelling your subscription and/or deleting your account at any time.
- We may suspend or terminate access for a material breach of these Terms that you fail to remedy within a reasonable period after notice, or immediately where required by law.
- Data export: for 30 days after termination you may export your Customer Content. After that period, we delete or anonymise it, subject to any legal retention obligations.
12. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms for valid reasons (e.g. new features, legal or security requirements). We will notify you of material changes in advance by reasonable means. If you do not agree to a change, you may terminate before it takes effect; continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
13. Final provisions
- These Terms are governed by the laws of Germany, excluding its conflict-of-law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). Mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence remain unaffected.
- An exclusive place of jurisdiction applies only where permitted by law (e.g. for merchants); otherwise the statutory places of jurisdiction apply.
- If any provision is or becomes invalid, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
