1.Preamble

1.1. The company “ehorses GmbH & Co. KG” (hereinafter referred to as: “ehorses”) provides services, including this website (hereinafter referred to as: “Products”), under the following terms and conditions, which are deemed to be binding in the relationship between the User and ehorses upon visiting this website and/or upon purchasing/using the Products, and with explicit consent. Besides governing the relationship between ehorses and the User (hereinafter referred to as the: “User”), whether or not the User has registered with the portal, the following terms and conditions also govern the relationship among Users.

 

1.2. The portal may only be used by legal entities, incorporated partnerships and natural persons of full legal capacity.

 

1.3. It may be the case that ehorses offers certain goods and services under special conditions only. However, ehorses will explicitly point this out to the User in good time before he or she concludes the contract. In the individual case concerned, the special conditions will then apply in addition to these terms and conditions. In the event of overlap, the special conditions shall take precedence.

 

1.4. ehorses hereby expressly objects to any reference to one’s own terms and conditions. The conflicting terms and conditions of a User shall be valid only if ehorses agrees to their validity in writing.

 

2.Offers on ehorses

ehorses provides offers involving various information services and other services. These services include the provision of content, such as data, texts, graphics, drawings, photos, films, links, information and other content, as well as the option to post own content, especially ads, comments, photos and texts. In addition, ehorses offers editorial content on the topic of horses as well as references to external horse-related content. ehorses also provides Users with a classified directory.

 

3.Use of ehorses

3.1. Both free and chargeable services may be available on the online platform. All chargeable services are marked as such.

 

3.2. The services available on the online platform may also include services of third parties to which ehorses merely facilitates access. Additional rules or terms that deviate from these terms and conditions may apply to the use of such services – which are marked as services of third parties in each case.

 

3.3. The User has no entitlement to the continuity or expansion of free services and content.

 

3.4. ehorses is entitled at all times to change services provided for free on the online platform; to provide new services free of charge or for payment; and to stop providing free services. In this connection, ehorses will take into account the legitimate interests of Users in each case.

 

3.5. ehorses restricts its services at times, if need be, to prevent capacity limits from being reached, to ensure the security or integrity of servers, or to implement technical measures. ehorses will take into account the legitimate interests of Users, for example by announcing scheduled maintenance work.

 

3.6. Users may only use the contact details of other Users, which are accessible via the online platform, for private purposes. It is therefore prohibited, for example, for a User’s data to be used by employers, recruitment agencies, employment agencies or public or private educational institutions for the purpose of collecting personal data. Promotional use is also forbidden, unless a direct reference is made to a posted ad. It is forbidden for Users to edit, change, translate, show, present, publish, exhibit, duplicate or disseminate, in whole or in part, content provided on the online platform, with the exception of content that they themselves have posted. It is also forbidden to delete or change copyright notices, logos and other marks or proprietary notices.

 

3.7. Any use aimed at exploiting the applications, services and content offered on this online platform for business, commercial or other profitable purposes other than the purposes provided on the online platform is forbidden. In particular, it is not permitted to frame this online platform or individual aspects of it.

 

3.8. Content provided on the online platform may not be copied, disseminated or otherwise made available to the public without the right holder’s consent – with the exception of cases permitted by law or where contractually stipulated. As such, it is also forbidden to use computer programs that automatically read data, such as crawlers.

 

3.9. For some services, it may be necessary for the User to download an application (hereinafter referred to as an: app), provided free of charge by ehorses, and install it on his or her mobile end device. To do this, the User may have to register with the app store of the relevant operating system vendor (e.g. Apple App Store). ehorses is entitled to make adjustments to the provision of services that require a new app or an update of the app to be downloaded in order to continue using the services, insofar as this is reasonable for the User.

 

3.10. Data backup is not the subject matter of the contract. ehorses may, but need not, back up data such as the texts and photos contained in ads.

 

4.Registration of a User Account

4.1. The User is required to register a user account, such as under “My ehorses”, in order to utilise certain services or to purchase certain products. This can be done, for example, by completing a registration form on the ehorses website. Following the submission of the registration form, ehorses may request confirmation of the email address by clicking on a confirmation link that the User will receive in an email sent by ehorses.

 

4.2. As a general rule, it is possible to register a user account for free, unless otherwise agreed. Gratuitousness does not apply to Premium (Plus) accounts (see point 9).

The User shall keep the chosen password secret and keep it protected from access by third parties. It is not permitted to share the password with third parties. If the User mislays his or her password, or discovers or suspects that his or her password is being used by a third party, he or she must notify ehorses to this effect immediately. The User may adapt and change the password in his or her user account at any time. It is recommended to change passwords regularly.

 

4.6. ehorses reserves the right to reject the registration of the User without giving any reason. The contract between ehorses and the User comes into effect upon confirmation of registration or upon receipt of a message stating that registration is complete. The User and ehorses therefore agree that a contract shall come into being even without the User’s signature.

 

4.7.4.7. ehorses may make further use of the online platform dependent on the User confirming his or her registration to the online platform within a specific period not exceeding 72 hours, even after the contract has come into being. ehorses may especially request this if there are doubts as to the identity of the User. ehorses will inform the User of the need to confirm his or her registration on the online platform and/or by sending an email to the email address provided during the registration process.

 

4.8. The User may only create one free user account. Likewise, only one free user account per household (an economic group composed of several persons living together) may be created. It is only permitted to create a further account with the approval of ehorses. It is not permitted to circumvent this limitation, particularly by using different data. By registering, the User affirms that he or she has no other user account on the online platform of ehorses and that he or she has not been excluded from its use. User accounts are not transferable.

6.2. The transfer of the rights of use therefore also applies for use in other media and formats, such as newspapers, as well as in advertisements. ehorses is in particular entitled to use posted content itself and/or by way of third parties, for example by incorporating some or all of the posted content into other websites (e.g. social media), apps, emails, and in print, radio and TV marketing campaigns.

Users are able to send an email to other Users via a contact form concerning an ad; they can also contact them by using the phone number provided. Users also have the possibility to flag certain ads in a personal user account (“Add to watch list”), in order to retrieve them later. Search requests can also be created; the User will then be notified by email of any new ads that match his or her search criteria.

 

8.2. With regard to the ad platform, ehorses merely provides technical services for handling Users’ offer management, and shall not itself be a party to any contracts subsequently concluded between Users.

 

8.3. The scope of services offered free of charge is determined by the actual offer on the online platform. Details about the services are set out on the online platform.

9.Additional Services for Ads

The following conditions apply additionally for certain ehorses services that are provided for a fee. If these conditions overlap or contradict the above, the following more special conditions shall take precedence. These services require an internet connection and a valid email address that third parties can use to invoice the User for costs. ehorses has no influence on this.

a)Additional Chargeable Services

ehorses gives Users the possibility to purchase various additional options for his or her ad. These additional options either create the possibility to post an ad (e.g. additional ads with a user account that facilitates only a certain number of free ads) or improve the ad options (e.g. special listing options by highlighting search results).

The following conditions apply additionally to these services:

(1)Scope of Services

The scope of services arises from the currently applicable price list. In this connection, additional options are always bound to a specific ad, unless otherwise agreed. When the posted ad expires (following deletion or the expiration of three months, unless otherwise agreed), the possibility to use the additional service also ends. The User is forbidden to circumvent this by changing the ad details.

(2)Termination

Termination is not required because the additional option expires automatically upon the expiry of the ad.

b)Premium (Plus)

ehorses gives Users the possibility to act as Premium (Plus) customers. Premium (Plus) customers receive a variety of benefits when posting ads on ehorses.de. The use of ehorses as a Premium (Plus) customer is subject to a charge in accordance with the currently applicable price list, unless otherwise agreed.

The following conditions apply additionally to these services:

If a notice period has not been agreed, it shall be one month. If the contract for Premium (Plus) Services is not terminated in due time, the contract for Premium (Plus) Services shall be extended as follows:

1.consumers: if you are a consumer as defined by Section 13 of the German Civil Code (BGB), i.e. a natural person who concludes legal transactions for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to his commercial nor to his independent professional activity, the following shall apply to you:

The contract for Premium (Plus) services is extended for an indefinite period and the extended contractual relationship can be terminated at any time with one month's notice.

The contract for Premium (Plus) services shall be extended in each case by the period agreed as the minimum contract term. If a minimum contract period has not been agreed, the respective extension period shall be 12 months.

Such content will continue to be available, together with the date of publication, albeit without stating the User’s name.

10.6. In the event of a termination by ehorses, the User is forbidden to re-register with the online platform.

 

10.7.

12.Trial Offers

Trial offers are applicable to new customers only. New customers are Users who did not have any contractual relationship with ehorses prior to accepting the trial offer and, in particular, have never before tested the services provided by ehorses. If a User gains unauthorised access to a trial offer (e.g. by re-registering or by giving false information), ehorses is entitled to immediately block the user account and to claim the normal charges applicable in the absence of conditions for new customers up until the next ordinary right to terminate the contract.

 

13.Invoicing and Payment

13.1. Invoices for Premium (Plus) customers will be made available to the User in his or her user account on ehorses.de; they are deemed to have been received upon being placed there.

13.4. Payment may be made by SEPA Direct Debit, PayPal (not for Premium (Plus) customers) or credit card.

 

13.5. In the case of SEPA Direct Debit payments, the User shall bear any costs arising as a result of the return of a payment due to insufficient funds or due to the User having provided incorrect bank details.

 

14.Default in Payment

14.1. In the event of a default in payment by the User, ehorses is entitled to stop providing the service and, in particular, to block the User’s ads. The requirement to pay the fee continues to apply during the period of discontinued service provision due to the default in payment. In the event of a default in payment, ehorses is entitled to claim statutory default interest and other damage caused by delay and, in particular, commission third parties to collect the payment.

 

14.2. If the User
a) defaults on payment of the fee, or a large part thereof, for two consecutive months or
b) defaults on payment of the fee over several months, with the amount in default being equivalent to the fee for two months, ehorses may terminate the contractual relationship without notice.

 

14.3. In the event of termination, the User is required to pay damages amounting to the remaining fee up until the next ordinary right to terminate, which ehorses may, according to these terms and conditions, declare due in full at any time.
