1. the services

1.1 FIXFIRST Services. The subject matter of the contract is the

a) provision by FIXFIRST of a software (“SOFTWARE”) as a web browser-based version and mobile application, which enables the USER to digitalize and automate the work processes of his company in relation to his customers, from the preparation of quotations and order documentation to billing support and integration of video services,

b) the granting of storage space by FIXFIRST in connection with the use of the SOFTWARE, together the “SERVICES”. The respective current functional scope of the SOFTWARE and other SERVICES results from the current service description on the website of FIXFIRST (https://www.FIXFIRST.io) (“SERVICE DESCRIPTION”).

1.2 Internet Connection.

The use of the SERVICES by the USER and the END USERS requires a working Internet connection for each terminal device used for this purpose. The speed of the SERVICES depends on the speed of the Internet connection used. There is an “Offline Mode” in which the USER or END USER can view information previously downloaded to their end device and in which the USER or END USER can begin documenting SERVICES; however, the “Offline Mode” is only used to bridge the gap when there is temporarily no Internet connection. The provision of an internet connection is not part of this AGREEMENT. If applicable, the USER and the END USER will incur separate costs for the download of the APP and the use of the SERVICES on the part of his or her respective mobile phone provider for the data transmission via the Internet. The USER is obliged to inform the END USERS about this circumstance, if it is not otherwise known to the END USERS. According to the current state of the art, data communication via the Internet is not error-free and not available at all times. FIXFIRST shall not be responsible for any limited usability of the SERVICES based thereon.

1.3 System requirements.

The SOFTWARE can be used in two versions:

as a web browser-based version for use on a PC using the latest version of a commercially available web browser (e.g. Safari, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome; however, access via Internet Explorer is not fully supported); and

as a mobile application (“APP”) on smartphones with a current Android or iOS operating system. The APP must be downloaded by the USER and the END USERS from the Apple Appstore or Google Play Store (each an “APP STORE”) under the terms and conditions applicable therein.

The USER and the END USERS are obliged to keep the downloaded APP always up to date and to install new versions or updates published in the APP STORE immediately in order to ensure the function of the SOFTWARE. The same applies to updates of his used web browser.

1.4 Links.

The SERVICE contains hyperlinks to offers and services of third parties (e.g. Google Maps). Following such a link opens the website or app of the respective third party provider. FIXFIRST has no influence on the content of third party websites or apps and does not become a party to or otherwise assume any obligations under any third party agreements to which the USER or END USER agrees via such websites or apps. FIXFIRST is neither able nor obliged to review third-party websites or apps, but will remove hyperlinks to unlawful content in accordance with applicable law if it becomes aware of such unlawfulness.

1.5 Third Party Content.

The SERVICES allow the USER and END USER to access certain platforms, content or information provided by third parties (“THIRD PARTY CONTENT”) (e.g. product and price information provided by wholesalers in relation to goods used by the USER in the course of its business). FIXFIRST is not responsible for THIRD PARTY CONTENT and does not verify its accuracy. The source of the THIRD PARTY CONTENT provided through the SOFTWARE will be indicated in the SOFTWARE to the extent possible. THIRD PARTY CONTENT is used by the USER at his own choice and responsibility. The USER acknowledges that the nature, type, quality and availability of the THIRD PARTY CONTENT may change at any time.

1.6 Granting of storage space.

1.6.1 FIXFIRST grants the USER storage space on a server operated by FIXFIRST or one of its subcontractors for the storage of data of the USER (“USER DATA”) within the scope of the intended use of the SOFTWARE. With the exception of the scope described in clause 1.7, the USER shall not be entitled to transfer this storage space to a third party for use, in part or in full, against payment or free of charge. FIXFIRST reserves the right to limit the storage space available per User during the RUN TIME by means of the modification process described in clause 6.1.

1.6.2 The USER assures not to store any content on the storage space, the storage, provision, publication or use of which in the context of the intended use of the SERVICES violates applicable law, third party rights, official requirements or agreements with third parties. USER shall ensure that this obligation is also complied with by its END USERS.

1.6.3 FIXFIRST shall be entitled to immediately block the storage space if there is reasonable suspicion that the stored USER DATA is illegal and/or infringes third party rights. A reasonable suspicion of illegality and/or infringement of rights exists in particular if courts, authorities and/or other third parties inform FIXFIRST thereof. FIXFIRST will notify the USER of the block and the reason for it in an appropriate manner. FIXFIRST will lift the block as soon as the suspicion is invalidated. 1.6.4.

1.6.4 At the request of the USER, at the end of the RUN TIME, the USER DATA shall be provided to the USER in a common format. If no other format is specified by FIXFIRST, the data shall be provided in CSV file format or, for files uploaded by the USER, in the format in which the respective files were uploaded. FIXFIRST shall not be obliged to process or convert the USER DATA. The transfer of the USER DATA shall take place at the discretion of FIXFIRST either in the form of sending a common data carrier at the expense of the USER or by providing the files for download by the USER. The USER shall provide FIXFIRST with all information necessary for the fulfillment of the duty to surrender. The USER shall not be entitled to also receive the software suitable for the use of the USER DATA. The USER’s request to surrender the USER DATA must be received by FIXFIRST no later than the end of the RUNNING PERIOD, in case of termination by FIXFIRST no later than five (5) business days after the end of the RUNNING PERIOD. Thereafter, FIXFIRST shall not be obliged to further maintain the stored USER DATA.

Notwithstanding any mandatory data protection requirements, FIXFIRST reserves the right to release the USER DATA in accordance with this clause 1.6.4 only if the USER has paid all fees due to FIXFIRST under this AGREEMENT.

1.7 Use of the SERVICES by the USER and END USER.

The USER may allow its employees or other persons employed by the USER (e.g. freelancers) to use the SERVICES on behalf of the USER to fulfill the USER’s business purposes through the ACCOUNT in accordance with the provisions of this AGREEMENT (“END USER”). The USER must register each END USER as such within the SERVICES by name (Named User License / personal license) and is obligated to pay the usage fee accruing for each END USER pursuant to Section 4.1.

1.8 Subcontractors.

FIXFIRST may subcontract or involve subcontractors with respect to the provision of the SERVICES or parts thereof. The use of subcontractors shall not release FIXFIRST from its sole obligation towards the USER to fully perform the contract. To the extent that subcontractors process personal data of the USER on behalf of FIXFIRST, the provisions of the GCU agreed upon with FIXFIRST (as defined in clause 5.1) shall apply in addition with respect to subcontractors.

1.9 Availability.

FIXFIRST shall endeavor, within the scope of its technical and organizational possibilities, to enable the use of the SOFTWARE during the usual business hours (weekdays between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.) on an annual average with an availability of 98.5%. Excluded from this are times during which the SERVICES or individual functionalities are not available or only available to a limited extent due to technical or other problems for which FIXFIRST is not responsible (e.g. disruptions caused by the Internet or due to force majeure), or due to maintenance work of a reasonable scope. As far as possible (i.e. unless the work has to be carried out at shorter notice for justified reasons), FIXFIRST shall inform the USER of maintenance work that affects the functionality of the SERVICES to a more than insignificant extent in the SOFTWARE 48 hours in advance (e.g. by displaying corresponding messages when logging into the SOFTWARE). The SOFTWARE may also be used outside the aforementioned normal business hours, however, no promises of availability are made in this regard.
