If a separate agreement has not been entered into, the utilisation rights shall only be valid for the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany.

5. DEFECTS OF MATERIAL AND DEFECTS OF TITLE

GWS warrants that the software, at the time of transfer of the risk and if used as intended, has the contractually agreed characteristics.

With the provision of updates, the liability for defects is limited to the new features of the updates towards the actual present version. In case of defects, GWS shall fulfil his warranty obligations by providing rectification. GWS shall have the right to, at his option, either provide you with a new version of the software which is free of defects, or to eliminate the defect. A defect shall also be deemed to have been eliminated if GWS demonstrates to you reasonable possibilities of avoiding the consequences of the defect. Warranty claims must be asserted to GWS in writing and should include as detailed a description as possible of the symptoms occurred. You shall provide reasonable support to GWS in the elimination of the defect and shall in particular comply with the measures and suggestions by GWS for the purpose of eliminating the defect.

In this context you shall expressly declare in writing that you reserve the right to withdraw from the contract and/or to claim damages should rectification fail again. Guarantees assumed by GWS must be provided in writing in order to be valid.
The warranty period shall be 12 months from the date of delivery, unless agreed otherwise.

Should GWS, within the framework of enhancement or servicing work, provide you with amendments or a new edition of the Software (updates, upgrade) which replaces the previously provided software, such amendments or new editions shall be subject to the present terms and conditions without an additional agreement being required. Shipment shall usually be by remote data transfer. GWS reserves the right to decide on the operational surroundings in which the updates may be used, and, if necessary, to change the permitted hardware and software prerequisites or configurations for updates. Modifications of the system requirements or the operational surroundings for updates are usually necessary in order to adapt the software to the continuous technological developments, thus ensuring that the software products are kept on a state-of-the-art level. In such cases, it is your obligation to create the system conditions required in order to use the updates. Updates are always compatible with the computer programmes pursuant to No. 1 of these terms and conditions for licenses. For updates, this compatibility does, however, not comprise potential configurations and programming adaptations implemented in order to adapt the computer programme to the Licensee’s requirements. The creation of this compatibility shall be the object of a separate agreement to be concluded if necessary. Services regarding installation, training in the application of the updates and consultancy services are not comprised in the scope of performance and can be ordered separately. Updates for a perpetual license may be terminated upon 6 months’ notice with effect as per the expiry of the update period specified in the invoice for the previous year. However, the termination shall be effective earliest with expiry of the contractual agreed update period. The right to receive updates for a subscription license shall expire with expiry of the license.

9. EXPIRY OF UTILISATION RIGHTS, TERMINATION FOR CAUSE

If your utilisation right expires, you shall delete all copies and versions, unless you are obligated by law to store them for a longer period of time. Should you materially infringe upon the agreed utilisation rights or upon GWS’s property rights, GWS shall have the right to terminate the utilisation rights to the software for cause. This requires an unsuccessful reminder with setting an adequate period of grace.

10. GOVERNING LAW, PLACE OF JURISDICTION, PARTIAL INVALIDITY

The governing law shall be the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). Münster, Germany, has been agreed as the place of jurisdiction. Should one or several of the provisions above be invalid, whether entirely or in part, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
