The operator shall notify the customer of the changes in text form no later than 8 weeks before they come into effect.

If the customer does not agree with the changes, he can object to them. In the change notification, the operator notifies the customer of his right to object and that the change is considered approved if he does not object in writing within a period of 6 weeks from receipt of the change notification.

Subject of the contract
The services we provide to the customer refer to the provision of technical means for the publication of content and for communication for the purpose of finding a partner (see Section 5.). The subject of the contract is expressly not marriage mediation, marriage initiation or ongoing and recurring service contract activity of any kind aimed at the direct establishment of a partnership or marriage.

Conclusion of contract, creation of access and setup of the profile

Registration is required to use the services. To do this, the customer must fill out the specified mandatory fields completely and truthfully, provide a permanently valid e-mail address and set up a password to secure his access.

By clicking on the "GTC" and "Privacy Policy" link, the customer can read the GTC and data protection policy at any time.

With the completion of this initial registration, the customer submits a binding offer to conclude a contract for the use of the services. After completing the registration, the customer receives a confirmation e-mail to the e-mail address provided. The sending of this confirmation e-mail represents the acceptance of the offer to conclude a contract for the use of the services.

The confirmation e-mail contains a link that the customer must click to verify his e-mail address and thus set up his access completely.

The customer can then use their login data to log in to our website.

The operator is entitled to refuse a customer's offer to conclude a contract for the use of the services for any reason. There is no right to conclude a contract for the use of the services.

However, the scope of service can be expanded (e.g. through the premium membership) for a fee:

The user is aware that the use of the website may require the transmission of considerable amounts of data, so that economically sensible use in the As a rule, an Internet flat rate is required.

Services of the operator

The operator's services are basically divided into a free membership and a paid premium membership. The premium membership includes the scope of services of the free membership.

Free membership

Free membership includes the following benefits:

Storage of a personal profile pre-structured by the operator in the operator's database. The profile is divided into a description of yourself and a description of a desired partner.

Ongoing automated profile comparison between the desired partner description and the profiles stored in the operator's database. Compilation of the profiles with a high degree of agreement in a suggestion list.

Provision of technical options for accessing the profiles stored in the database and for managing one's own profile.

The free membership is unlimited. It begins with the sending of the confirmation e-mail to the customer and expires with the cancellation with immediate effect.

In addition, the operator reserves the right to passivate free memberships for long-term inactive customers (no visibility of the profile for other customers, blocking of contacts).

The operator also reserves the right to limit the free membership services for customers who cannot be reached by email for the time they cannot be reached.

Premium Membership:

Premium membership includes the following additional services:
Time-limited or quantitatively limited, functionally unrestricted use of the contact functions.

The premium membership begins with the customer's booking, which is subject to a fee, and ends automatically after the agreed term. If, on the other hand, advance payment is agreed when ordering the premium membership, the premium membership only begins after the invoice amount has been credited to the operator's account.

As part of the free membership and the premium membership, there are additional services that have to be ordered separately (e.g. appearing in the search engine), for which the customer enters into a separate additional contractual relationship (cf. Section 4 j.).

The operator reserves the right to completely or partially discontinue the services offered. In the event that the customer still has a paid entitlement to the service at the time the service is discontinued, the operator will reimburse the customer for the unused service entitlement pro rata.

The operator only owes the provision of technical means for the publication of content and for communication for the purpose of finding a partner. Successful contact mediation is not owed. The operator therefore does not guarantee that contact will be established within the contract period.

The operator cannot guarantee that partner suggestions will be made as part of the automatic profile comparison.

The customer authorizes the operator to take various measures (e.g. use of automatic filter software) for the purpose of preventing abuse or quality assurance, which can lead to performance restrictions both within the framework of the free membership and the premium membership (e.g. blocking the contact functions).

The operator is entitled to make contact data (e.g. e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, etc.) transmitted within received contact request or message texts unrecognizable for the customer, provided that the customer

does not have a premium membership.

The operator uses current and commonly used technologies for its services. The full use of the operator's services requires the customer to use current and commonly used technologies. This affects, among other things, the browser software, but also the activation of certain technologies within the browser software (cookies, JavaScript, pop-up windows). The operator cannot guarantee unrestricted use of its services if the customer uses older or not commonly used technologies.

Termination

Free Membership:

Both parties have the right to terminate the contract at any time with immediate effect.

The customer terminates the contract by sending the online form provided by the operator, stating his personal password (further information can be found in the FAQ). In addition, termination by email to support@amore18.eu, using the online contact form (link: https://www.amore18.de/Kontakt), or by post to the address Sven König, Bahnhofstr. 2, D-71277 Rutesheim, possible. Except in the case of termination via the online form after registering on the website with the access data, the termination request must be provided with a user name, e-mail and password for clear authentication and to protect against misuse.

The operator reserves the right to unilaterally terminate free memberships of long-term passive customers.

Paid Premium Membership:

The fee-based premium membership ends automatically when the contract period expires. The customer does not have the right to early ordinary termination.

The right to extraordinary termination for good cause remains unaffected for both parties; Item 6. a. ii. Shall apply accordingly.

invoicing

The customer declares his express consent to the operator billing paid services via an online invoice, sending this to his e-mail address and making it available to him in addition to retrieving it via his access.

The online invoices are only available for retrieval via the customer's access for as long as the membership exists.

The operator only issues a paper invoice to the customer for a separate fee. The additional invoice must be ordered separately.

The online invoice is made available to the customer in PDF format ready for retrieval.

Invoicing takes place immediately after the order has been placed by the customer. If advance payment has been agreed, the invoice may be issued before or at the beginning of the service period or the performance of the service.

terms of payment

If the customer has selected SEPA direct debit as the payment method for a fee-based service and has given the operator a SEPA mandate, the operator will debit the invoice amount from the customer's account. The direct debit is usually announced in advance by the operator no later than 1 day before the direct debit is due. If the customer is not also the account holder of the account to be debited, the customer is responsible for forwarding the advance notice of the debiting of the account that was sent to him or her to the account holder. For each direct debit that is not redeemed or returned, the customer must reimburse the operator for the costs incurred to the extent that he is responsible for the event that caused the costs. In this case, the customer also agrees to pay the invoice amount plus the costs to be reimbursed within 10 days by bank transfer to the bank account specified in the invoice.

In the event of a return debit, the operator is entitled to interrupt the agreed services until the invoice amount has been credited to the operator's account. In this case, the service period is extended by the duration of the interruption.

In the case of credit card chargebacks, the customer undertakes to pay the invoice amount plus any additional fees by bank transfer within 10 days of the reminder to the bank account specified in the reminder.

liability of the operator

The operator is liable to the customer in all cases of contractual and non-contractual liability in the event of intent and gross negligence in accordance with the statutory provisions for damages or reimbursement of wasted expenses.

In other cases, the operator is only liable - unless otherwise regulated in paragraph c - in the event of a breach of a contractual obligation, the fulfillment of which makes the proper execution of the contract possible in the first place and on the observance of which the customer can regularly rely (so-called cardinal obligation), and limited to compensation for the foreseeable and typical damage. In all other cases

t the liability of the operator is excluded, subject to the provision in paragraph c.

The operator's liability for damage resulting from injury to life, limb or health and under the Product Liability Act remains unaffected by the above limitations and exclusions of liability.

The operator does not guarantee that the customer profiles stored in the operator's database correspond beyond any doubt to the true identity of the customer. He is also not liable for the truthfulness of the content and data published and communicated by the customer via the operator's services. It follows that the operator cannot accept any liability for the correctness of the results of the automatic profile comparison.

The operator rejects any liability for the uninterrupted accessibility of the services and for interruptions, failures and disruptions in the services due to maintenance, failure, disruptions and malfunctions of the technical systems and software. This applies in particular if the disruption or failure is due to a general disruption/failure of the communication network.

The operator is also not liable if third parties gain unauthorized knowledge of the customer's personal data (e.g. through unauthorized intrusion by "hackers" into the operator's database or when the data is transmitted over the Internet).

Customer Responsibilities and Obligations

The customer is responsible for the security of his access. The customer is aware that after the automatic login has been activated, access to the services via the browser used (on the respective device under the respective device user ID) is also possible without re-entering the access data.

Information, trademarks, brand names, labels and other content of the service may not be changed, copied, reproduced, sold, rented, used, supplemented or otherwise exploited in any way without the prior written consent of the operator.

The customer is obliged

Until the information provided during registration is changed, it is considered correct and complete by the operator. The operator marks profiles with free membership in the database as unavailable if e-mails were undeliverable in the past and will not send e-mails to the customer until the e-mail address is updated by the customer. This also applies to notifications about an impending passivation or deletion of the profile (see 3.h. data protection declaration).

The customer undertakes to comply with the following rules, in particular when publishing and communicating content and data via the operator's services:

No publication and communication of content and data that violate applicable law, morality or good taste. Content must not be offensive, threatening, sexually oriented, indecent, harassing, obscene, racist, profane, factually inaccurate, defamatory, or infringe the copyright or trademark rights of any third party.

Any behavior that harasses, threatens or violates the rights (including personal rights) of third parties is to be avoided.

The publication of memberships, embassies, postal addresses, telephone numbers, fax numbers, Internet or e-mail addresses and other addresses via the profile is prohibited.

sending chain letters,

Spam e-mails and the distribution of software that may damage or affect third-party software or hardware is prohibited.

Attempting to systematically circumvent the performance limitations of the free membership (e.g. in the internal messaging system) is prohibited.

Intercepting messages, or even attempting to do so, is prohibited.

The operator only provides its services for private use. Use for commercial purposes (e.g. for advertising, sales initiation and execution) is not permitted.

The operator reserves the right to remove content published by the customer within the questionnaires without consulting the customer if it does not contain any reference to the corresponding questionnaire item.

The responsibility for the content and data published and communicated by the customer lies unrestrictedly with the customer. The operator is entitled, but not obliged, to check texts, photos (or excerpts thereof) or graphic files published by customers for their compatibility with these GTC, the guidelines that are provided for individual functions on the website and the applicable law and, if necessary, to change the respective content without consulting the customer, if necessary to move it to another profile position, or to copy or remove it.

The customer hereby exempts the operator from all claims that third parties assert against the operator due to a violation of their rights through the content posted by the user. The operator reserves the right not to publish content and data that do not meet these requirements or to block or remove them immediately.

If the operator has indications that the user is violating the above regulations, the operator is entitled to block the user's access and to terminate the user contract extraordinarily.

communication

Messages from the customer to the operator can only be sent via the contact form (online contact form, link: http://www.amore18.de/Kontakt) or to the e-mail addresses given on the operator's website.

The customer service takes place expressly only by e-mail.

The customer agrees that the operator will only send him unencrypted emails.

The customer agrees that the operator will send the customer information by e-mail that it deems necessary to provide its services to the customer. In particular, the operator sends the customer information by e-mail when there are new messages, new profile visitors, new partner suggestions, new or additional Amore18 products or Amore18 services (e.g. appearing in the carousel). If the customer does not agree to the sending of information, he can deactivate it at any time. In this regard, there is a link at the bottom of each email that takes the customer to the email notification options that allow the customer to opt out of receiving information. The e-mail notification options can also be accessed via the settings in the personal member area.

For the purpose of data security, the operator regularly makes backup copies of the personal data collected from the customer or created when the customer uses the services. If, in the event of data loss, not all data can be restored from the backup copy, the customer agrees to provide the operator with the missing data required to provide its services again free of charge.
