15.4 How TeamSpeak shares your personal information
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak cannot run its business or get many of the services and
|
||
benefits you expect provided without involving other people and
|
||
businesses. TeamSpeak will share your information only in accordance
|
||
with the laws applicable to us and for the purposes set out herein.
|
||
|
||
From time to time, TeamSpeak processes personal information about you in
|
||
an automated manner to evaluate specific personal aspects about you.
|
||
This includes the ability to analyze your interests and make predictions
|
||
about how you are likely to interact with TeamSpeak. This is commonly
|
||
referred to as profiling, so TeamSpeak can offer you a more personalized
|
||
customer experience. This is based on our impression of how you deal
|
||
with TeamSpeak.
|
||
|
||
The personal data about you that we process for profiling purposes
|
||
includes your identity data, your contact data and your profile data. We
|
||
do not process any personal data about you for profiling purposes that
|
||
consist of personal data of the special category. We process your
|
||
personal data for profiling purposes for our legitimate interests, as
|
||
explained below. If you would like to know more about what kind of
|
||
profiling we do and what profiling means for you, please contact us and
|
||
we will be happy to give you a detailed answer. You also have the right
|
||
to object to our processing your personal data for profiling purposes
|
||
and to learn more about your right to object.
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak shares your personal information:
|
||
|
||
* All *TeamSpeak companies*, including new companies, brands or
|
||
outlets that we may acquire in the future (which act as controllers
|
||
or contract data processors) and that provide information
|
||
technology, human resources and systems administration services, and
|
||
that you may have agreed to provide you with marketing communications.
|
||
* *Service providers* (who primarily act as processors, sometimes as
|
||
controllers) who assist TeamSpeak in providing you with our
|
||
websites, mobile apps, wireless networks, and related services; for
|
||
example, information technology companies that design and host
|
||
TeamSpeak USA websites, payment service providers that enable you to
|
||
use credit or payment cards at TeamSpeak, and data wallpaper
|
||
specialists.
|
||
* *Related third parties* (acting as contract data processors and
|
||
controllers) who provide services to TeamSpeak, such as market
|
||
research, voucher provision and withdrawal, marketing background
|
||
services, and data analysis services.
|
||
* *Reward companies *(which act as controllers) that you have joined
|
||
to receive the rewards and benefits offered to you.
|
||
* Any new *business partners* (who act as controllers or contract data
|
||
processors) that TeamSpeak may have over time; for example, if
|
||
TeamSpeak enters into a partnership with another company,
|
||
reorganizes, merges, or sells a portion of our business, the other
|
||
party may receive some or all of your information.
|
||
* Our *professional consultants* (who act as controllers or order data
|
||
processors); for example, our attorneys, insurance companies and
|
||
insurance brokers, if they need them to advise TeamSpeak or assist
|
||
TeamSpeak in taking out insurance.
|
||
* The police, health and safety authorities, local authorities, the
|
||
appropriate tax authorities in your country, the courts, and any
|
||
other central or local government authorities (acting as controllers
|
||
or contract data processors) where TeamSpeak is required to do so in
|
||
order to comply with its legal obligations, or when requested to do
|
||
so and TeamSpeak is permitted to disclose it lawfully, for example,
|
||
to prevent and detect criminal offences or to report serious health
|
||
and safety incidents.
|
||
* TeamSpeak may also share the information collected with other third
|
||
parties where TeamSpeak is required to do so by law, for example to
|
||
comply with a court order.
|
||

||

||
16. Google Analytics
|
||
|
||
16.1 TeamSpeak USA uses Google Analytics on the websites operated by

||
TeamSpeak USA and all TS 5 clients. Google Analytics is a web analytics

|
||
|
||
16.2 The websites operated by TeamSpeak USA use Google Analytics with
|
||
the extension "_anonymizeIP()", i.e. the anonymization function of
|
||
Google Analytics. As a result, your IP address will generally be
|
||
truncated by Google in a European Economic Area country prior to
|
||
transmission to the United States of America.
|
||
|
||
16.3 The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of the use of
|
||
Google Analytics is not merged with other data that Google collects
|
||
about you.

|
||
processing of your personal data by Google by installing the browser

|
||

||

|
||
|
||
16.8 The data collected by Google Analytics on the TS5 client is
|
||
processed anonymously. Similar to the procedure described in Section
|
||
16.2, the TS5 client will generally have your IP address truncated by
|
||
Google in a European Economic Area country prior to transmission to the
|
||
United States of America.
|
||
|
||
|
||
17. Data security
|
||
|
||
17.1 TeamSpeak takes current technical measures to ensure data security
|
||
and thus in particular to protect your personal data from the dangers of
|
||
data transmission and the gaining of knowledge by third parties.
|
||
TeamSpeak regularly adapts these measures to the current state of the art.
|
||
|
||
17.2 TeamSpeak USA will provide you with information about data security
|
||
at all times. Please direct your inquiry to privacy@teamspeak.com or to
|
||

||
|
||
18. Privacy shield regulations
|
||
|
||
18.1 TeamSpeak USA is certified under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield and
|
||
fully complies with the principles of the Privacy Shield, including its
|
||
ancillary principles, when transferring data from European Economic Area
|
||
countries to the United States. To learn more about the Privacy Shield
|
||
program, visit www.privacyshield.gov, <http://www.privacyshield.gov/>
|
||
and to verify our certification, visit www.privacyshield.gov/list.
|
||
However, if there is a conflict between the Privacy Shield Principles
|
||
and the Data Transfer Principles below, the Privacy Shield Principles
|
||
will always prevail.
|
||
|
||
18.2 Types of personal data, purpose of collection and competent authority
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak USA collects and uses information in various ways. TeamSpeak
|
||
USA only collects the data transmitted by your browser for purely
|
||
informational use of the website. For more detailed information, please
|
||
refer to section 6 of this Privacy Policy. TeamSpeak USA also collects
|
||
data when you purchase licenses for software solutions from TeamSpeak
|
||
USA. Further information can be found in section 7 of this data
|
||
protection declaration. When cookies are used, they are stored on your
|
||
computer. You will find more details on this under section 5 of this
|
||
data protection declaration. Data is also collected, stored and
|
||
processed when the TS3 Client and TS5 Client are downloaded. The same
|
||
applies when using the TS3 Client and TS5 Client. For more information,
|
||
please refer to section 9 of this Privacy Policy.
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak USA will only use personal information in a manner consistent
|
||
with the purposes for which it was collected or authorized by you.
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak USA is subject to the US Department of Commerce International
|
||
Trade Administration.
|
||
|
||
18.3 Data transmission to third parties
|
||
|
||
If we disclose personal information to third parties acting as agents of
|
||
TeamSpeak USA, we will ensure that such third parties are also certified
|
||
for the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield or have a resolution of appropriateness
|
||
issued by the EU Commission, or that there are written agreements
|
||
between us and the third party that at least meet Privacy Shield's
|
||
privacy standards. To whom we disclose your personal information and for
|
||
what purpose, please refer to the disclosures in this privacy statement
|
||
regarding the specific use of TeamSpeak USA's information.
|
||
|
||
Under certain circumstances, TeamSpeak USA may be liable for the
|
||
disclosure of personal data of individuals from the European Economic
|
||
Area if the third party has processed personal data in a manner
|
||
inconsistent with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, unless TeamSpeak USA
|
||
proves that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
|
||
|
||
We may need to disclose personal information in response to lawful
|
||
requests from government authorities, for law enforcement or national
|
||
security reasons, if necessary to comply with a court order, or if
|
||
otherwise required by law.
|
||
|
||
18.4 Data security
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak USA uses technical, electronic and administrative procedures
|
||
to ensure the confidentiality of your personal information, including
|
||
Secure Sockets Layer ("SSL") for all financial transactions. We use SSL
|
||
encryption to protect your personal information online. We also take
|
||
several steps to protect your personal information at our facilities.
|
||
Access to your personal data is restricted. Only employees who need
|
||
access to your personal information in order to perform certain tasks
|
||
will have access to your personal information. Finally, for the
|
||
technical security of some of our computer hardware, we rely on the
|
||
services of third parties. We believe that their security measures are
|
||
appropriate. For example, when you visit teamspeak.com, you access a
|
||
server behind closed doors and an electronic firewall. Although we take
|
||
industry-standard precautions to protect your personal information, we
|
||
cannot guarantee complete security. 100% complete security is currently
|
||
available neither online nor offline. TeamSpeak USA takes current
|
||
technical measures to ensure data security and in particular to protect
|
||
your personal data from the dangers of data transmission and the
|
||
knowledge gained by third parties. TeamSpeak USA also regularly adapts
|
||
these measures to the state of the art. TeamSpeak USA keeps you informed
|
||
about data security in your organization at all times. Please send your
|
||
request to privacy@teamspeak.com <mailto:privacy@teamspeak.com> or use
|
||
the contact details given in the teamspeak.com imprint.
|
||
|
||
18.5 Choice, access and corrections
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak USA provides individuals in the European Economic Area whose
|
||
personal information has been submitted to us with the opportunity to
|
||
choose whether the personal information you provide will be used for a
|
||
purpose other than that for which it was originally collected. You may
|
||
also opt out of the use of your personal information by contacting us at
|
||
the contact details below. TeamSpeak USA will not use your personal
|
||
information for any purpose other than that for which it was originally
|
||
collected or subsequently authorized by you, unless we have received
|
||
your express consent.
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak USA also provides you with reasonable access to personal
|
||
information obtained in accordance with the Privacy Shield Principles.
|
||
|
||
Upon request, we will also correct or update your personal information,
|
||
stop sending emails to your email address, or deactivate your account to
|
||
prevent future purchases through that account.
|
||
|
||
You can send these requests by e-mail to privacy@teamspeak.com, by fax +
|
||
1-619-312-4145 or by telephone at + 1-877-832-6773. Please do not send
|
||
your credit card number or other sensitive information by e-mail.
|
||
|
||
18.6 Offline Collection, Use and Disclosure of Information
|
||
|
||
Information may also be collected offline, and attempts may be made to
|
||
protect your personal information. For example, when you call, we only
|
||
ask for the personal information we need to process the order or answer
|
||
the question. When we need to store information, we enter it into our
|
||
database using SSL encryption. Faxes are another example. If you fax us
|
||
something, we respond to the fax and either store it in a locked room or
|
||
we destroy the fax if the information does not need to be kept. It
|
||
should be noted that we try to comply with the standards for data
|
||
obtained online for data obtained offline.
|
||
|
||
18.7 Enforcement of Privacy Shield Principles
|
||
|
||
TeamSpeak USA implements compliance measures to ensure compliance with
|
||
the Privacy Shields. Any employee found by TeamSpeak USA to be in
|
||
violation of these guidelines will be subject to disciplinary action.
|
||
|
||
18.8 Settlement of disputes
|
||
|
||

|
||
committed to resolving complaints about your privacy and our collection
|

or use of your personal information. Persons from a European Economic
|
||
Area country should first contact TeamSpeak USA at the above address
|
||
with inquiries or complaints regarding Privacy Shield provisions.
|
||
TeamSpeak USA will investigate and attempt to resolve your complaints
|
||
based on the principles set forth in the Privacy Shield Policy.

TeamSpeak USA is required to investigate the complaint within 45 days.
|
||
TeamSpeak USA has also committed to submit unresolved privacy complaints
|
||
under the Privacy Shield provisions to the independent enforcement
|
||
mechanism, the BBB EU PRIVACY SHIELD, which is often operated by the
|
||
Council's Better Business Bureau. If it does not acknowledge your
|
||
complaint in a timely manner or your complaint is not satisfactorily
|
||
addressed, please visit
|
||
http://www.bbb.org/EU-privacy-shield/for-eu-consumers
|
||
<http://www.bbb.org/EU-privacy-shield/for-eu-consumers> for more
|
||
information and to file a complaint. Under certain limited
|
||
circumstances, an individual may also be able to invoke binding
|
||
arbitration under Annex I of the Privacy Shield Principles to resolve an
|
||
otherwise unresolved complaint.

|
||
minimum license fee is not reached, the customer must nevertheless pay
|
||
license fees in the amount of the minimum license fee.
|
||
|
||
9.2 Unless otherwise agreed between the customer and TeamSpeak, the
|
||
license fees stated in the service description for the respective
|
||
license model shall be deemed agreed.
|
||
|
||
9.3 TeamSpeak is entitled to change the license fees in the course of
|
||
further development of the software solutions or for reasons of
|
||
adaptation to the market situation.
|
||
|
||
9.4 In the event of a price adjustment, a list with the changed prices
|
||
will be sent to the customer in text form.
|
||
|
||
9.5 The customer has the option to terminate the license agreement

||
without notice within a period of four weeks commencing with the receipt
|
||
of the message referred to in Section 9.4 of these General Terms and
|
||
Conditions.
|
||
|
||
9.6 The customer has the possibility to object to the price adjustment
|
||
within a period of four weeks beginning with the receipt of the message
|
||
referred to in section 9.4 of these General Terms and Conditions. In the
|
||
event of an objection by the customer, TeamSpeak shall be entitled to
|
||
terminate the contract extraordinarily within a period of four weeks
|
||
beginning with the receipt of the objection by TeamSpeak.
|
||
|
||
|
||
10. Prices and terms of payment for the licensing of the software
|
||
solutions
|
||
|
||
10.1 All prices or price quotations quoted by TeamSpeak are always in
|
||
the form of US dollars, even in the absence of an express currency
|
||
indication, unless otherwise agreed between the parties.
|
||
|
||
10.2 All prices or price quotations are exclusive of the applicable
|
||
value added tax and any further public charges.
|
||
|
||
10.3 When ordering via Teamspeak.com, the customer only has access to
|
||
the payment options indicated under the menu item "Pay", whereby
|
||
TeamSpeak expressly reserves the right to reject a payment method
|
||
selected by the customer in the contract offer.
|
||
|
||
10.4 In the case of telephone orders or orders placed by e-mail, fax or
|
||
post, payment by bank transfer shall be agreed as advance payment unless
|
||
otherwise agreed, whereby TeamSpeak's remuneration shall become due upon
|
||
conclusion of the contract, i.e. the customer shall be obliged to pay
|
||
the remuneration in advance.
|
||
|
||
10.5 If payment on account has been agreed, payment shall be due within
|
||
fourteen working days of receipt of the invoice by the Customer.
|
||
|
||
10.6 TeamSpeak shall be entitled to perform or provide outstanding
|
||
services only against advance payment or security if, after conclusion
|
||
of the contract, it becomes aware of circumstances which could
|
||
significantly reduce the creditworthiness of the customer and which
|
||
endanger the payment of TeamSpeak's outstanding claims by the customer
|
||
arising from the respective contractual relationship (including from
|
||
other individual orders).
|
||
|
||
|
||
11. Termination of license agreements for the software solutions
|
||
|
||
11.1 The contracts for the licensing of software solutions have the
|
||
contract term stated in the service description (hereinafter referred to
|
||
as the "minimum contract term"), i.e.
|
||
|
||
11.1.1 The contract for the "Unlicensed" license model has no fixed
|
||
contract term. The license model can be used by the customer at any time
|
||
as long as TeamSpeak offers this license model.
|
||
|
||
11.1.2 The contract for the "NPL" licensing model has a minimum term of
|
||
six months.
|
||
|
||
11.1.3 The contract for the "AAL" licence model has a minimum term of
|
||
twelve months.
|
||
|
||
11.1.4 The contract for the "ATHP" licence model has a minimum term of
|
||
twelve months.
|
||
|
||
11.1.5 The contract for the license model "SDK" has the individually
|
||
agreed minimum contract term.
|
||
|
||
11.2 The Contract shall be automatically extended by the minimum
|
||
Contract Term if neither party terminates the Contract at the end of the
|
||
minimum Contract Term. With the license model "NPL", the contract is
|
||
only automatically extended if the customer has used the software
|
||
solution within a period of one month before the end of the minimum
|
||
contract term; otherwise the contract ends automatically with the end of
|
||
the minimum contract term.
|
||
|
||
11.3 The license agreement may be terminated by the customer at any time
|
||
at the end of the minimum contract term without notice. TeamSpeak may
|
||
terminate the License Agreement at any time subject to a notice period
|
||
equal to half the period of the minimum contract term to the end of the
|
||
minimum contract term.
|
||
|
||
11.4 The right of both parties to extraordinary termination remains
|
||
unaffected. TeamSpeak is entitled to an extraordinary right of
|
||
termination, in particular under the conditions set out in Section 11.5
|
||
of these GTC.
|
||
|
||
11.5 In particular, TeamSpeak has a right of extraordinary termination,
|
||
|
||
11.5.1.1 if the Customer defaults on two consecutive payments due for
|
||
the Licensing.
|
||
|
||
11.5.1.2 if the customer repeatedly falls below the minimum license fee
|
||
in the case of a contract for the license model "ATHP".
|
||
|
||
11.5.1.3 if the customer repeatedly violates his obligations under the
|
||
license agreement, including these GTC, despite a warning and the
|
||
violations are not insignificant.
|
||
|
||
11.5.1.4 if the customer repeatedly breaches its essential obligations
|
||
under this contract despite a warning from TeamSpeak and is responsible
|
||
for the breach.
|
||
|
||
11.5.1.5 if the customer has chosen the license models "Unlicensed" or
|
||
"NPL" without the property as a consumer or non-commercial grouping
|
||
being present or this property having subsequently ceased to exist. In
|
||
this case we reserve the right to claim damages.
|
||
|
||
11.6 Each termination requires the text form.
|
||
|
||
|
||
12. Obligations of the customer when using the client
|
||
|
||
12.1 The customer himself is obliged to undertake data back-ups at
|
||
regular intervals. TeamSpeak is not responsible for any loss of data
|
||
resulting from a breach of this obligation. This does not apply if
|
||
TeamSpeak is responsible for the violation.
|
||
|
||
12.2 Furthermore, the customer is obliged to use programs corresponding
|
||
to the current technical standard against viruses and other malicious
|
||
software.
|
||
|
||
12.3 Updates to the Standard Software will be provided free of charge
|
||
when and as they become available. The customer is obliged in his own
|
||
interest to install updates of the client immediately after their
|
||
publication. Otherwise the usability of the client may be restricted.
|
||
|
||
|
||
13. Termination of the client licensing agreements
|
||
|
||
13.1 The Customer may terminate the Client Licensing Agreement at any
|
||
time by removing the Client from any of the Customer's end devices.
|
||
|
||
13.2 The right to extraordinary termination without notice of both
|
||
parties remains unaffected.
|
||
|
||
13.3 Each termination obliges the customer to immediately remove the
|
||
client from all end devices.
|
||
|
||
|
||
14. Publication of contributions in the forum
|
||
|
||
14.1 The registered customer has the possibility to publish
|
||
contributions in the area "Community Forum" on myteamspeak.com via the
|
||
customer area of his customer account.
|
||
|
||
14.2 In order to publish a new contribution, the Customer uploads the
|
||
contribution by clicking on the "Post New Thread" button. When replying
|
||
to a contribution from another customer, the customer clicks the button
|
||
labeled "Reply To Thread" to publish his reply contribution. The
|
||
contribution will then be transmitted to TeamSpeak and published by
|
||
TeamSpeak on myteamspeak.com.
|
||
|
||
14.3 TeamSpeak does not control contributions prior to publication.
|
||
TeamSpeak expressly reserves the right to delete individual
|
||
contributions in the event of a reference to the illegality of a
|
||
contribution.
|
||
|
||
14.4 The customer undertakes vis-à-vis TeamSpeak not to publish any
|
||
contributions that violate the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany
|
||
or the rights of third parties.
|
||
|
||
14.5 The customer indemnifies TeamSpeak against all rights of third
|
||
parties which they may assert against TeamSpeak due to the publication
|
||
of contributions on Teamspeak.com by the customer. Subject to the
|
||
customer's consent, TeamSpeak will not make any acknowledgements or
|
||
other declarations in legal transactions which justify the asserted
|
||
claims of the third party.
|
||
|
||
14.6 The indemnity obligation set forth in Section 14.5 of these GTC
|
||
shall not apply if the circumstances justifying the claims of the third
|
||
party can be proven to be due to gross negligence or wilful misconduct
|
||
on the part of TeamSpeak.
|
||
|
||
14.7 TeamSpeak undertakes, insofar as the customer's obligation to
|
||
indemnify as stipulated in section 14.5 of these GTC is affected, to
|
||
inform the customer immediately of any legal action brought against
|
||
TeamSpeak or of any assertion of claims against TeamSpeak and to give
|
||
the customer the opportunity to assume legal defence.
|
||
|
||
|
||
15. Termination of the user account for the forum
|
||
|
||
15.1 The customer has the option to have TeamSpeak delete his customer
|
||
account at any time. For this purpose, the customer sends the deletion
|
||
request in text form to TeamSpeak. Termination is also possible against
|
||
a moderator of the forum in text form. TeamSpeak shall delete the
|
||
customer's forum account immediately upon receipt of the notice of
|
||
termination. Contributions published by the customer may be deleted or
|
||
anonymized at TeamSpeak's discretion. With the deletion the contract
|
||
about the use of the customer account ends.
|
||
|
||
15.2 TeamSpeak has the right to terminate the contract for the use of
|
||
the customer account at any time with three months' notice to the end of
|
||
the quarter of a calendar year.
|
||
|
||
15.3 The right of both parties to extraordinary termination remains
|
||
unaffected. A right to extraordinary termination exists in particular if
|
||
the customer repeatedly violates his obligations under section 14.4 of
|
||
these GTC despite a warning and the violation is not insignificant.
|
||
|
||
15.4 Any notice of termination must be in text form.
|
||
|
||
|
||
16. Publication of Add Ons
|
||
|
||
16.1 If the customer is registered as a developer, he has the
|
||
possibility to upload Add Ons and offer them to third parties for free
|
||
download.
|
||
|
||
16.2 In order to upload Add Ons, the customer clicks the button with the
|
||
label "Upload Add Ons" in the customer area of his customer account. The
|
||
customer submits the add-ons to be uploaded by him to TeamSpeak by
|
||
pressing the button labeled "Add Addon".
|
||
|
||
16.3 TeamSpeak releases the Add Ons on "MyTeamspeak".
|
||
|
||
16.4 TeamSpeak does not control the uploaded add-ons prior to
|
||
publication. TeamSpeak also expressly reserves the right to delete
|
||
individual add-ons in the event of a reference to the illegality of an
|
||
add-on.
|
||
|
||
16.5 The customer undertakes not to publish any add-ons to TeamSpeak
|
||
that violate the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, the rights of
|
||
TeamSpeak or the rights of third parties.
|
||
|
||
16.6 The customer shall indemnify TeamSpeak against all third party
|
||
rights asserted against TeamSpeak by the customer due to the publication
|
||
of add-ons on myteamspeak.com by the customer. Subject to the customer's
|
||
consent, TeamSpeak will not make any acknowledgements or other
|
||
declarations in legal transactions which justify the asserted claims of
|
||
the third party.
|
||
|
||
16.7 The indemnity obligation set forth in Section 16.6 of these GTC
|
||
shall not apply if the circumstances justifying the claims of the third
|
||
party can be proven to be due to gross negligence or wilful misconduct
|
||
on the part of TeamSpeak.
|
||
|
||
16.8 TeamSpeak undertakes to inform the customer immediately of any
|
||
legal action taken against TeamSpeak or the assertion of claims against
|
||
TeamSpeak and to give the customer the opportunity to assume legal
|
||
defence in the event that the customer's obligation to indemnify is
|
||
breached in accordance with Section 16.6 of these General Terms and
|
||
Conditions.
|
||
|
||
|
||
17. Termination of the customer account as developer
|
||
|
||
17.1 The customer has the option of having TeamSpeak delete his customer
|
||
account as a developer at any time. For this purpose, the customer sends
|
||
the deletion request in text form to TeamSpeak. TeamSpeak will delete
|
||
the customer's developer account immediately upon receipt of the
|
||
termination notice. Add-ons published by the customer will also be
|
||
deleted immediately. With the deletion the contract about the use of the
|
||
Developer account ends.
|
||
|
||
17.2 TeamSpeak has the right to terminate the Developer Account
|
||
Agreement at any time with three months' notice to the end of the
|
||
quarter of a calendar year.
|
||
|
||
17.3 The right of both parties to extraordinary termination remains
|
||
unaffected. A right to extraordinary termination exists in particular if
|
||
the customer repeatedly violates his obligations under section 16.5 of
|
||
these GTC despite a warning and the violation is not insignificant.
|
||
|
||
17.4 Any notice of termination must be given in writing.

|
||
|
||
18.2 The following provisions shall apply to entrepreneurs:
|
||
|
||
18.2.1 The customer's warranty rights expire within one year. This shall
|
||
not apply to damages culpably caused by TeamSpeak resulting from injury
|
||
to life, body or health and damages caused by gross negligence or intent
|
||
or fraudulent intent, as well as in the case of recourse claims pursuant
|
||
to §§ 478, 479 BGB (German Civil Code).
|
||
|
||
18.2.2 A warranty by TeamSpeak is excluded if the defect is due to
|
||
circumstances caused by TeamSpeak at the express request of the customer.
|
||
|
||
18.2.3 The strict liability for damages for initial defects according to
|
||
§ 536a Abs. 1 BGB is excluded.
|
||
|
||
|
||
19. Liability
|
||
|
||
19.1 TeamSpeak shall be liable in all cases of contractual and
|
||
non-contractual liability for intent and gross negligence in accordance
|
||
with the statutory provisions.
|
||
|
||
19.2 In other cases, TeamSpeak shall be liable - unless otherwise
|
||
stipulated in Section 19.1 of these GTC - only in the event of a breach
|
||
of a contractual obligation, the fulfilment of which is essential for
|
||
the proper execution of the contract and on the observance of which the
|
||
customer may therefore regularly rely (so-called cardinal obligation).
|
||
In all other cases, TeamSpeak's liability is excluded subject to the
|
||
provision in Section 19.1 of these GTC.
|
||
|
||
19.3 To the extent that TeamSpeak is liable on the merits pursuant to
|
||
clause 19.1 of these GTC, this liability shall be limited to damages
|
||
which TeamSpeak foresaw at the time of conclusion of the contract as a
|
||
possible consequence of a breach of contract or which TeamSpeak should
|
||
have foreseen if it had exercised due care. Furthermore, indirect
|
||
damages and consequential damages resulting from deficiencies in
|
||
TeamSpeak's performance shall only be eligible for compensation if such
|
||
damages are typically to be expected when the performance is used as
|
||
intended.
|
||
|
||
19.4 TeamSpeak's liability for damages resulting from injury to life,
|
||
limb or health and under the Product Liability Act shall remain
|
||
unaffected by the above limitations and exclusions of liability.
|
||
|
||
|
||
20. Set-off, rights of retention and assignment
|
||
|
||
20.1 The customer shall only be entitled to offset claims against

||
TeamSpeak against legally established or undisputed claims. The same
|
||
applies to the assertion of rights of retention.
|
||
|
||
20.2 The assignment of claims against TeamSpeak to third parties is only
|
||
possible with the written consent of TeamSpeak. This applies in
|
||
particular to the transfer of the license granted by TeamSpeak to third
|
||
parties.
|
||
|
||
|
||
21. Text form
|
||
|
||
21.1 Amendments and alterations to the agreements made between TeamSpeak
|
||
and the customer, including these General Terms and Conditions, must be
|
||
made in text form in order to be effective.

||
agreements that deviate from these provisions.
|
||
|
||
|
||
22. Applicable law and place of jurisdiction
|
||
|
||
22.1 German law shall apply. In the case of consumers, this choice of
|
||
law shall only apply insofar as the protection granted by mandatory
|
||
provisions of the law of the country of the consumer's habitual
|
||
residence is not thereby withdrawn (principle of favourability).
|
||
|
||
22.2 The place of performance for all services arising from business
|
||
relations with TeamSpeak and the place of jurisdiction shall be the
|
||
registered office of TeamSpeak, provided that the user is not a consumer
|
||
but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under
|
||
public law. The same applies if the user does not have a general place
|
||
of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if the place of residence or
|
||
usual abode is not known at the time the action is filed. The right to
|
||
also appeal to the court at another legal place of jurisdiction remains
|
||
unaffected by this.
|
||
|
||
22.3 The provisions of the UN Sales Convention expressly do not apply.
