1. General Provisions

1.1 These GTC for the provision of services apply to contracts concluded between the Client and the Contractor incorporating these GTC.

1.2 If additional contract documents or other terms and conditions in text or written form become part of the contract in addition to these GTC, the provisions of these additional documents shall take precedence in case of conflict with these GTC.

1.3 The Contractor does not recognize any deviating GTC used by the Client unless expressly agreed upon.

2. Contractual Subject Matter and Scope of Services

2.1 The Contractor provides the following services as an independent entrepreneur to the Client:

Creation, development, provision, marketing, and distribution of digital and analog learning, training, and informational media, as well as software for the creation, provision, marketing, and distribution of such media. Additionally, the company’s purpose includes providing services in the field of education, including training and continuing education, as well as consulting, training, and the execution of training programs and sessions, both online and offline.

2.3 The Contractor shall perform the contractually agreed services with the greatest possible care and diligence according to the latest standards, rules, and findings.

2.4 The Contractor is obligated to provide the agreed services but is not subject to any instructions regarding how the services are provided, the location of service provision, or the timing of service delivery. However, the Contractor shall schedule workdays and the allocation of time on those days in a way that maximizes efficiency and the realization of the contract objective. The provision of services by the Contractor is carried out solely in coordination with the Client.

3. Client’s Obligations to Cooperate

The Client is responsible for providing complete and accurate information, data, and other necessary content for the fulfillment of the services. The Contractor is not liable for delays in service performance caused by the Client’s late or inadequate provision of necessary cooperation. The provisions under “Liability/Indemnification” remain unaffected.

4. Compensation

4.1 Compensation shall be agreed upon individually.

4.2 Compensation is to be paid after the provision of services. If compensation is time-based, it shall be due after the expiration of the respective time periods (§ 614 BGB). If compensation is based on effort, the Contractor is entitled, unless otherwise agreed, to invoice the services provided on a monthly basis.

4.3 The Contractor shall issue an invoice to the Client upon completion of the services, either by mail or email (e.g., as a PDF). Payment is due within 14 days of receipt of the invoice.

5. Liability / Indemnification

5.1 The Contractor is fully liable in cases of willful intent or gross negligence, for willful or negligent injury to life, body, or health, under a guarantee, if otherwise required by law, or under mandatory liability. If the Contractor negligently breaches a material contractual obligation, liability shall be limited to the typical, foreseeable damage, unless full liability applies as per the previous sentence. Material contractual obligations are those obligations that enable the proper execution of the contract and on which the Client regularly relies. In all other cases, the Contractor’s liability is excluded. The above liability rules also apply to the Contractor’s agents and legal representatives.

5.2 The Client shall indemnify the Contractor against any third-party claims arising due to violations of these contractual terms or applicable laws by the Client.

6. Contract Duration and Termination

6.1 The contract duration and termination deadlines shall be agreed upon individually by the parties.

6.2 The right of both parties to terminate the contract for cause without notice remains unaffected.

6.3 Upon termination of the contract, the Contractor must promptly return or delete all provided documents and other content at the Client’s discretion. The right to withhold such materials is excluded. Electronic data must be fully deleted unless there is a legal obligation to retain it, in which case it will only be retained until the end of the legal retention period. Upon request, the Contractor shall confirm the deletion in writing.

7. Confidentiality and Data Protection

7.1 The Contractor shall maintain strict confidentiality regarding all matters that come to its knowledge in connection with the contract. The Contractor shall impose confidentiality obligations on all employees and third parties who have access to the contractual information.

7.2 The Contractor agrees to comply with all applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Federal Data Protection Act.

8. Final Provisions

8.1 The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply, excluding the CISG (United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods).

8.2 If any provision of these GTC is invalid or becomes invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected.

8.3 The Client shall support the Contractor in performing its contractual services through appropriate cooperation, as necessary. The Client shall provide the Contractor with all required information and data for contract fulfillment.

8.4 If the Client is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special public asset, or has no general place of jurisdiction in Germany, the parties agree that the Contractor’s place of business shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contractual relationship. Exclusive jurisdictions remain unaffected.

8.5 The Contractor is entitled to amend these GTC for valid reasons (e.g., changes in legal provisions, court rulings, market conditions, business or corporate strategies) with reasonable notice. Clients will be informed at least two weeks before the changes take effect via email. If a Client does not object within the set deadline, the changes shall be deemed accepted. If the Client objects, the changes will not take effect, and the Contractor may terminate the contract extraordinarily as of the date the changes were set to take effect. The notice regarding the changes will inform the Client of the deadline and the consequences of objecting or failing to object.

9. Information on Online Dispute Resolution / Consumer Arbitration
