General Conditions

Use

§ youneaty can only be used by persons with legal capacities, unrestricted and normal persons over 18 Years of age (not a judicial person).

§ A right to use youneaty does not exist.

§ Users are required to use youneaty properly, not illegally or in an abusive manner.

§ youneaty may not be used in a way that harms their networks or servers, puts it out of service, overburdens or impairs and interferes with the use and practical value of youneaty by or for a third party.

§ To use youneaty you must be in acceptance of "cookies" from the platform and have "JavaScript" enabled in your browser.

Registration and User Accounts

§ Active participation requires registration. By registering you agree to these terms and conditions.

§ The chosen username must not be misleading, be abusive or otherwise objectionable or illegal. The operator has the right to change a user name at any time or at its discretion.

§ The users agree that all information given is principally for publication on the Internet, open to the public and declassified.

Profiles

§ The users are obliged to provide truthful information in their profiles when created.

§ The profiles must not have any offensive, lewd, pornographic or otherwise illegal content, this also applies to any provided pictures.

§ Messages between users are solely personal and are not to be used for advertising or other non-appropriate content abuse.

§ The privacy of other users is considered. It is prohibited to save and print the profiles, messages, photos or any other data of other users either for personal or third party use.

§ The operator reserves the right to block or delete users, at its discretion or at any given time.

Granting of Rights of Use

§ Users grant the operator unrestricted and gratuitous rights of use on all submitted data, that is not strictly personal, persisting even over a potential deletion of a user's account. This is, for example, true for matching questions, submitted using the "Suggest Question" feature, but not for, for instance, a user's name, "About" or other strictly personal data.

Warranty

§ The operator does not check the identity of users and is also not responsible for matches, contracts and agreements made on the platform. Thus, the operator assumes no responsibility for the set of users or information required.

§ In particular, the operator does not guarantee any of the following:
  • The identities of users
  • The accuracy and completeness of the work done by the users’ entries and declarations
  • The behavior of users
§ In the published messages and profiles and their contents, is it only be carried out by external parties as defined in § 5 paragraph 2 Teleservices Act.

Changes

§ The operator reserves the right to change its site or its services, to add to or delete the publication and operation of the platform either temporarily or permanently at any time without prior notice and without giving reasons.

§ The operator also reserves the right to modify these terms at any time, without notice and without giving any reason to the users. Any changes made while a user is logged in will only take effect the next time the user logs in.

Liability

§ The operator is not liable for damages, tangible or intangible, to users or third parties arising from the use or non-use of youneaty. Similarly, the operator is not liable for damage or losses caused by a faulty or incomplete data transmission and data loss, especially when due to technical defects or when profiles are not represented fully. The operator is still not liable for the disclosure of information due to unauthorized access by third parties.

§ The operator is not liable for damages caused to users or third parties by the behavior of other users. The operator is not obliged to check whether any third party rights are affected by the provided user data.

§ The operator is liable only for damages based on intent or gross negligence by the operator or his legal representatives or employees. In the event of a breach of contract, the operator is not liable for indirect damages; the liability is limited to the typically foreseeable damages at contract conclusion.

§ youneaty may be temporarily unavailable or malfunctioning. The user may not make any claims against the operator for maintenance, congestion, system failures or software errors. The operator thus does not guarantee that a user dispatched message is delivered, correct or received by youneaty or is taken into account, or any other input from users is correct or complete or becoming part of the platform's database.

§ If the operator makes software available to the user, the operator assumes no responsibility for this.

§ The operator offers its users solely a platform for them to maintain their personal contacts.

§ The operator does not warrant, guarantee or take liability for offers or bids and the fulfillment of contracts.

§ The operator has no influence on the current and future design and content of the whipped through links on other sites on the Internet. Therefore, the operator hereby detaches himself in all forms from the publications of these sites, does not adopt their content and accepts no responsibility for it. This applies without exception to all direct and indirect links from the pages of youneaty which reach external sites or rather their content. Thus, only the provider of these sites is responsible for illegal, incorrect or incomplete contents and more so for damages resulting from the use or non-use of such content and not the operator. Once the operator is aware that there is a link from our page to a website with illegal content, the operator, after examining, will remove the link to this page.
