1. Scope of this Agreement

The scope of the Agreement is the use of the respective specifically agreed service, as described within the respective concrete service sections provided by L2QR to the User against payment or free of charge.

These T&C regulate any referred to the T&C contractual relationships between L2QR and the User (hereinafter referred to as “Agreement”). This applies regardless of whether the making of declarations, the logging in, the registration, the contract conclusion, the service or the reception of services occur inside or outside of Ukraine.

2. Conclusion of Agreement

The presentation of services on the websites of L2QR does not represent a legally binding offer of L2QR, but a non-binding invitation to the User to submit a corresponding offer. The processes and technical steps that lead to a binding offer by the User will be explained in the respective concrete service sections.

Before the submission of the respective legally binding offer by the User, an explicit confirmation of the User that the User has read and accepted the T&C as well as - in case of a consumer (i.e. private, non-commercial) User - the revocation instructions by clicking the respective checkbox is required. Before the submission of a binding offer or registration by clicking the respective button, the User can check and correct the data, if necessary.

Upon submission of the binding offer or registration by the User, without undue delay L2QR sends an e-mail to the e-mail address provided by the User. This e-mail is a confirmation of receipt of the offer, but does not constitute the acceptance of the offer, unless explicitly declared as such by L2QR. The User shall ensure that the e-mail address provided by the User is correct and that e-mails sent by L2QR will be received and will not be blocked or the like.

An Agreement is only concluded after L2QR accepts the User’s offer through a declaration of acceptance. L2QR accepts the offer made by the User within one (1) week either by explicit acceptance at least in text form, an order confirmation via e-mail sent to the User by L2QR, by the provision of the services or by starting the provision of the contractual services, in case of continuous obligations or if the services are contractually agreed to be provided in two or more parts.

3. Services

3.1 General

The services of L2QR may generally be used for private and commercial purposes, unless it is explicitly stated within the respective service that a private or commercial use is permitted exclusively. L2QR goal is to provide Users with a continuous availability and an error-free functionality of the services provided. Nevertheless, L2QR may restrict or shut down services and/or systems to a reasonable extent during off-peak times for maintenance or performance optimization. Besides this, L2QR is entitled to discontinue services completely after prior notice.

3.2 Account

The use of pseudonyms, nicknames or professional names instead of given names and surname as well as multiple registrations is prohibited, unless permitted by L2QR in writing.

The User must not disclose any account information to any third party, including the password. The User is solely responsible to maintain the confidentiality and security of the account and for all activities that occur through or in connection with it. In case of any suspected security infringement or misuse with regards to the account, the User notifies L2QR immediately in writing.

L2QR is not responsible for any losses or damage caused by an unauthorized use of the account. This accounts explicitly for information stored within the account or eventual harmful misuse of the compromised account, for instance by exchanging links to specific codes or similar activities.

3.3 QR Code, vCards, (mobile) websites and the related tools and advisory services

L2QR offers services in the field of the creation, design, management, optimization, scanning and analysis of QR Codes, vCards, (mobile) websites and the related tools and advisory services.

The concrete contractual services of L2QR result from the respective concrete presentation within the individual service sections. The same applies to the scope of services, the service period, obligations of the user to pay remuneration and further concrete service conditions.

The services provided by L2QR depend to a considerable extent on the availability of third parties, in particular also on the availability and accessibility of, for example, the worldwide internet and mobile communications infrastructure, data centers, telephone lines, mobile communication networks, domains, apps and so forth. The User is aware that these factors are beyond the influence and responsibility of L2QR and acknowledges that for this reason, L2QR services may be completely or partly (e.g. single services or only for individual Users), permanently or temporarily, discontinued, restricted, blocked or modified, as far as required.

L2QR uses programs that allow conclusions on the usage and usage behavior of users. This information increases the safety, optimizes the services of L2QR and is handled confidentially in due compliance with the provisions and regulations of data protection outlined within L2QR Privacy Policy.

Some of L2QR QR Code services allow the User to upload, submit, store, send, receive or share content of the Users’ choice. There is no obligation to provide any content to do so. If the User chooses to upload or share content, the User ensures to have the necessary rights and that the respective content is lawful. A detailed description of what is explicitly prohibited in this respect is listed in L2QR Upload Content License and Acceptable Use Policy. L2QR reserves the right to extend these regulations at any point in time.

3.4 Tools/Features in Testing Phase

L2QR may release tools, features or the like (hereinafter referred to as “Test Services”) which are still in a testing or evaluation phase. These Test Services will be identifiable as such, e.g. by labelling with “test”, “evaluation”, “alpha”, “beta,” “preview” or with other similar expressions. These Test Services may not be as reliable as L2QR other services. L2QR makes available such Test Services to Users to collect information about the user-friendliness and general functionality and based on this to improve the Services. The user-friendliness may be evaluated in the form of statistical evaluations, in all cases without any verification of the individual natural person. Beta Services are confidential until official launch, so that the provisions pursuant to Section 12 of this T&C apply.

A consent of the User will be collected in this respect, as far as legally required.

In this case, the User shall pay L2QR default interest for the year at a rate of 5 percentage points above the prime rate.
