§ 1 Scope and Contracting Parties

(2) The Provider is a natural person operating as a sole proprietor:
Aron Korbinian Taner, Burgfriedstr. 15, 83024 Rosenheim, Germany | kontakt@distribot.de
(3) These Terms apply equally to consumers (§ 13 BGB, German Civil Code) and entrepreneurs (§ 14 BGB), unless otherwise stipulated.

(5) These Terms apply in the version that is current at the time of registration or order.
§ 2 Description of Services
(1) Distribot is a web-based SaaS tool (Software as a Service) for the automated distribution and scheduling of content on social media platforms. The core services include in particular:
- Connecting user accounts with social media platforms (e.g. Instagram, Facebook) via official APIs
- Automated scheduling and publishing of content (content scheduling)
- Management of posts, media, and posting schedules

- Responsibility for the content of the posts published by the User
- Support services for functions of third-party platforms (Meta, Instagram, etc.)
(3) The Provider aims for a platform availability of 99% on an annual average. There is no legal entitlement to a specific level of availability. Scheduled maintenance work will be announced in advance where possible. Outages due to third-party APIs (e.g. Meta) are beyond the Provider's sphere of influence and do not give rise to any claims by the User.
§ 3 Registration and User Account
(1) The use of Distribot requires registration. By registering, the User submits a binding offer to conclude a usage contract in accordance with these Terms (§§ 145 et seq. BGB).
(2) Upon registration, the User is obliged to provide complete and correct information. Registration under a false name or with false data is prohibited.
(3) The use of Distribot is permitted exclusively to persons who have reached the age of 18. Minors are excluded from use.
(4) The User is obliged to keep their access data (in particular the password) confidential and to protect it from access by third parties. If misuse is suspected, the Provider must be informed without delay.
(5) The User is liable for all actions carried out using their user account, provided that the User is responsible for the misuse.
(6) Transfer of the user account to third parties is not permitted without the express written consent of the Provider.
§ 4 Conclusion of Contract and Term
(1) The contract is concluded when the User completes the registration form and the Provider confirms the registration (acceptance by activation email or activation of the account).
(2) Distribot is offered as a subscription service. The contract term depends on the chosen tariff (monthly or annual).
(3) The subscription is automatically renewed for the respectively chosen term if it is not terminated in due time in accordance with § 12 of these Terms.
(4) The notice period is:
There is no notice period. The subscription may be cancelled at any time. Use of the services remains possible until the end of the billing period that has already been paid for.
(5) Free trial or free versions are subject to separate conditions, which are communicated upon activation. There is no entitlement to a trial period.

(6) The Provider reserves the right, in the event of continued default of payment (more than 14 days), to block access to the service until the outstanding amount has been settled in full.
(7) Price changes will be announced to the User by email at least 30 days before they take effect. In the event of disagreement, the User has the right to extraordinary termination.
§ 6 Right of Withdrawal (consumers only)
(1) Consumers (§ 13 BGB) are, in principle, entitled to a right of withdrawal pursuant to §§ 312g, 355 BGB upon conclusion of a distance contract.
(2) Withdrawal instructions:
Right of withdrawal: You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is 14 days from the day of conclusion of the contract.
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us of your decision to withdraw from this contract by means of a clear declaration (e.g. by email). To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient that you send the notification regarding the exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period expires.
(3) Consequences of withdrawal: If you withdraw from this contract, we shall repay all payments we have received from you without delay and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification of your withdrawal.
(4) Expiry of the right of withdrawal for digital content: The right of withdrawal expires in the case of a contract for the supply of digital content (SaaS) if the Provider has begun performance of the contract after the consumer has expressly consented to the Provider beginning performance before the expiry of the withdrawal period and has confirmed their knowledge that, by giving their consent, they lose their right of withdrawal (§ 356 (5) BGB).
§ 7 Rights of Use and Intellectual Property
(1) For the duration of the contractual relationship, the Provider grants the User a simple, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to use the Distribot platform within the scope of these Terms.
(2) All rights in the software, the source code, the user interface, the databases, the algorithms, and all other components of Distribot remain exclusively with the Provider. The User does not acquire any ownership rights in the software.
(3) The User is prohibited from decompiling, disassembling, modifying, creating derivative works of, or otherwise interfering with the source code of the software, unless this is expressly permitted by law (§ 69e UrhG, German Copyright Act).
(4) The User grants the Provider a limited, non-exclusive right to process and transmit the content (images, texts, videos, etc.) uploaded or transmitted by the User via Distribot exclusively for the purpose of rendering the contractually agreed service (distribution on social media platforms). This right ends upon deletion of the account.
(5) The User warrants that they hold all necessary rights in the content they upload and that such content does not infringe any rights of third parties.
§ 8 Obligations and Prohibited Use
(1) The User undertakes to use Distribot exclusively within the scope of applicable laws and these Terms.
(2) The following uses are expressly prohibited:
- Distribution of unlawful, discriminatory, insulting, defamatory, or otherwise illegal content
- Sending of unsolicited advertising messages (spam) or mass postings without the recipients' consent
- Misuse of the API interfaces or circumvention of technical protective measures
- Violation of the terms of use of the connected third-party platforms (in particular Meta, Instagram)
- Automated attacks, scraping, or denial-of-service attacks on the Provider's infrastructure
- Use of the service to distribute malware, phishing, or other harmful content
- Disclosure of access data to unauthorized third parties
- Use for purposes that violate applicable law, in particular copyright law, data protection law, or competition law
(3) The User bears sole responsibility for all content they publish via Distribot. The Provider does not review content in advance and is not obliged to do so.
(4) In the event of violations of these obligations, the Provider is entitled to block or terminate the user account without delay and to assert claims for damages.
(5) The User shall indemnify the Provider against all third-party claims arising from an unlawful use of the service by the User, including reasonable costs of legal defense.
§ 9 Third-Party Providers and API Services
(1) Distribot uses official APIs of third-party providers (in particular Meta Platforms Inc. for Instagram and Facebook) to render its services. The availability and functional scope of the service are therefore partly dependent on the availability and conditions of these third-party providers.
(2) The Provider has no influence over changes, restrictions, or the shutdown of third-party APIs. Should such changes impair the functionality of Distribot, this does not give rise to any claim by the User to a reduction of the fee, damages, or extraordinary termination, provided that the Provider is not responsible for the disruption.
(3) The Provider is not liable for blocks, restrictions, or other measures taken by third-party platforms against the User or the User's social media accounts.
(4) The User is obliged to comply with the respective current terms of use of the third-party platforms they use. Violations thereof fall within the sole responsibility of the User.
§ 10 Limitation of Liability
(1) The Provider is liable without limitation for damages arising from injury to life, body, and health, as well as for damages based on intentional or grossly negligent conduct.
(2) For damages caused by simple negligence, the Provider is liable only if material contractual obligations (cardinal obligations) are violated, and even then only up to the amount of the damage typically foreseeable for the contract.
(3) The total liability of the Provider vis-à-vis entrepreneurs is limited in amount to the total amount paid by the User in the last contract year.
(4) Liability for lost profit, indirect damages, or consequential damages is excluded to the extent permitted by law.
(5) Vis-à-vis consumers, the statutory liability provisions apply without restriction.
(6) The foregoing limitations of liability apply accordingly to the Provider's vicarious agents.
(7) The limitation of liability also applies in particular to damages arising from outages or changes of third-party APIs over which the Provider has no influence.
§ 11 Data Protection
(1) The Provider processes the User's personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). All details regarding data processing are governed in the separate privacy policy:
(2) By using Distribot, the User agrees that their data may be processed to the extent necessary to render the contractually agreed services. The privacy policy forms part of these Terms.
(3) The User has the right to withdraw their consent to data processing at any time, insofar as such processing is based on consent. This may have the consequence that use of the service is restricted or rendered impossible.
§ 12 Term, Termination, and Suspension
(1) Ordinary termination: The User may cancel the subscription at any time without observing a notice period, effective at the end of the respective term period. Use of the services remains possible until the end of the billing period that has already been paid for. Termination must be made in text form (email is sufficient).
(2) The Provider may ordinarily terminate the contract with the same notice period.
(3) Extraordinary termination: Both parties may extraordinarily terminate the contract for good cause without observing a notice period. Good cause exists in particular if:
- the User violates material obligations of these Terms
- payment is in default by more than 30 days
- the Provider identifies concrete indications of misuse of the service
- insolvency proceedings are opened over the User's assets or the opening is refused for lack of assets
(4) Suspension: The Provider is entitled to temporarily block the user account in the event of justified suspicion of misuse or violations of these Terms. The suspension does not give rise to any claim to a refund of amounts already paid if the User is responsible for the reason for the suspension.
(5) Consequences of termination: After the end of the contractual relationship, all user-related data will be irrevocably deleted after a transition period of 30 days, unless statutory retention obligations preclude this. The User is obliged to export all required data themselves before the end of the contract.
§ 13 Amendments to the Terms
(1) The Provider reserves the right to amend these Terms with effect for the future, insofar as this is necessary for objective reasons (e.g. changes in legislation, new product functions, changes to third-party providers' conditions).
(2) Amendments will be communicated to the User by email to the address on file at least 30 days before they take effect. The amendments are deemed accepted if the User does not object in writing within 14 days of receipt of the notification (fiction of consent pursuant to § 308 No. 5 BGB).
(3) The notification expressly draws attention to the possibility of objection and the consequences of silence.
(4) If the User objects to the amendment, the Provider is entitled to extraordinarily terminate the contractual relationship as of the time the new Terms take effect.
§ 14 Final Provisions
(1) Applicable law: All legal relationships between the Provider and the User are governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). In the case of consumer contracts, the mandatory consumer protection law of the User's state of residence applies additionally.
(2) Place of jurisdiction: For disputes with entrepreneurs,
Rosenheim
is the exclusive place of jurisdiction. For consumers, the statutory place of jurisdiction applies.
(3) Severability clause: Should individual provisions of these Terms be or become invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. In place of the invalid provision, a valid provision shall be deemed agreed which comes closest to the economic purpose of the invalid provision.
(4) Ancillary agreements: There are no oral ancillary agreements. Amendments and additions to these Terms require the written form; this also applies to any waiver of the written form requirement itself.
(5) Language: The contract language is German. In the event of translations of these Terms, the German version shall always prevail.
