If the user accesses the services via App and has downloaded MindSleep from the App Store of a third party or accesses the contents via an audio/video or assistant platform (such as Google Home), the respective terms and conditions of business or use of the App Store or platform shall apply in addition; in the event of contradictions, these GTC shall prevail.

The use of MindSleep for commercial or other commercial purposes is expressly prohibited.

2. Services with costs

2.1 Some services of MindSleep require the payment of a fee. The scope of the services included in MindSleep and usable by the user depends on whether and which services are used free of charge or against payment. In the case of free use, the user has access to certain basic functions and information of the respective services. An extended range of functions is available to the user if the services are activated for the user as part of a subscription. The MindSleep provides an overview of the available fee-based services, their fees, scope of services, restrictions and terms in the MindSleep. The payment of the fee only entitles the user to access the services available or visible in the offer presentation. All fees mentioned are inclusive of the applicable sales tax.

2.2 The individual steps of purchasing paid services are described in the descriptions within the third party’s App Store, MindSleep, or the website mindsleep.tech. By placing an order, the user submits an offer. The mere pressing of the order button does not constitute a contract of sale for the paid content. Only after successful payment and the corresponding electronic confirmation, the order is considered accepted and the sales contract is concluded. Acceptance can also be implied, in particular by activating the chargeable services.

2.3. The MindSleep offers the option to unlock the entire content of the MindSleep by a payment. The MindSleep offers subscriptions with different minimum terms. With the activation of the paid content, the user receives the right to use it permanently for his own, non-commercial purposes on all devices connected and compatible with his App Store account. Any further use – in particular publication on the Internet, as well as the unauthorized copying, distribution or making available of the contents via the Internet, whether free of charge or against payment – is not permitted. The same applies to transcribing the contents, removing copyright information and source references as well as other editing or manipulation of the download. The granted rights of use are not transferable or sublicensable and are subject to full payment. Uses permitted by copyright law are not restricted. The Provider is entitled to revise, update or otherwise change the content at any time if this should be necessary for technical, legal or content reasons. The Provider shall keep all purchased digital data available for download for a reasonable period of time. However, unlimited data backup and data availability cannot be guaranteed. The user should therefore save his downloads in parallel locally on connected end devices. The user will be informed expressly and in advance if the content can no longer be made available for download by the provider.

2.4 The payment methods shown in the offer are accepted; the payment process is usually operated by appropriate service providers. These may include in particular the payment systems offered by the respective App Store operators. As far as the respective service provider includes its own general terms and conditions of business or terms of use (GTC) in individual cases, these are exclusively valid for the payment process. If applicable, the user must have a user account with the service provider.

2.5 The Provider of the App Store can influence the duration or renewal, or their available paid services. Depending on the App Store, fee-based services may expire at the end of the agreed term without requiring a termination, or the respective contract term may be extended indefinitely or for a corresponding period of time. Details can be found in the terms and conditions or the respective offer presentation of the App Store. The App Store offers the possibility to terminate paid services via a corresponding menu item.

2.6 If fees cannot be collected and if the user is responsible for the event causing the collection, the user shall bear all costs arising therefrom. If payments made are charged back or the user does not pay fees, MindSleep is entitled to block all or access to individual services from MindSleep.

For this repayment, the Provider shall use the same means of payment that the User used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with the User; in no case shall the User be charged any fees on the basis of this repayment. If the User requests that the services should commence during the withdrawal period, the User shall pay the Provider a reasonable amount corresponding to the proportion of the services already provided by the time the User notifies the Provider of the exercise of the right of withdrawal with respect to this Agreement compared to the total scope of the services provided for in the Agreement.

Any exercises presented in the context of the services provided by MindSleep are designed for averagely healthy and physically and mentally resilient users. The user carries out any exercises on his own responsibility. If the user suffers from any medical condition, such as diabetes or cardiovascular problems, lung or respiratory diseases (including asthma), neuromuscular diseases, surgery or other health restrictions, is pregnant or breastfeeding, or feels unwell after interval fasting, the Provider advises the user to consult a physician.

The Provider shall only be liable for simple negligence if his vicarious agents or legal representatives violate an obligation that is essential for achieving the purpose of the contract (so-called cardinal obligation). In this case the liability is limited to the foreseeable damage. This shall amount to a maximum of the fee paid by the user for the use of the paid services and functions. The aforementioned limitation of liability does not apply to damages due to the absence of warranted characteristics, to injury to life, body or health, or to claims under the Product Liability Act. However, insofar as the liability of the Provider is excluded or limited, this also applies to the personal liability of its legal representatives and vicarious agents.

5.3 The User undertakes to indemnify the Provider or the Provider’s vicarious agents from all claims of third parties which are asserted in connection with the User’s breach of his obligations under these GTC and/or the laws applicable to him and to assume all reasonable costs incurred by the Provider, including those for legal defense, insofar as the User is responsible for the breaches. No Guarantee The Provider does not give any assurances or guarantees that the weight or other result desired by the user will be achieved by using the respective service. The Provider does not owe a concrete success. In addition, the result is also influenced by factors that cannot be controlled, such as physical predispositions and preconditions, so that the result can vary greatly among different people despite the same use of the services. The Provider gives no guarantees that all interactions on the platform with other users will take place.

7. Final Provisions

7.1 The Provider endeavors to enable a trouble-free operation of the app and to keep it available as far as possible. However, it is pointed out that a complete or uninterrupted availability is not technically feasible. Therefore, the Provider does not assume any guarantee for a trouble-free operation or a certain availability. Furthermore, there is no claim to the maintenance of individual functionalities of the App that are used free of charge. The Provider is – as far as there are no contractual obligations to the contrary – entitled at any time to change or remove content, services and functionalities provided within MindSleep and to make new content, services and functionalities available or to stop further development of the App as a whole. In this respect, the Provider also reserves the right to issue separate terms and conditions for new service offers or to discontinue and change additional features free of charge.

7.2 The current terms and conditions of MindSleep, which are deposited with the order, apply. The Provider is entitled to change these GTC at any time with effect for the future, provided that this is necessary for objective reasons, in particular due to changes in the law or in the highest court decisions, changes in economic conditions, technical changes or further developments, changes in market conditions or other equivalent reasons, and provided that the user is not unreasonably disadvantaged by this. Changes to the General Terms and Conditions of Business will be pointed out at a suitable place within the offer or by e-mail at least 14 days before the change is made in good time. Every user has the right to object to the new terms of use.

In this case, the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by the parties by a valid provision which comes as close as possible to the economic purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision. The same applies in the case of a loophole in the regulations.
