Each Customer has the right to terminate the user agreement for DEHNrisk within 4 (four) weeks of receipt of the amendment notification from DEHN.

- Conclusion of agreements
- Use of the Services requires the Customer’s agreement to these SLC and the booking of at least one licence package for the Webapplication DEHNrisk. In order to use individual functions of the Services it is also necessary to download and install the Client-Software.
- Licence packages for the Webapplication DEHNrisk can only be booked for the Customer by the Webapplications-Administrator of the Webapplication DEHNproject acting on behalf of the Customer. The assignment of roles and rights for the Webapplication DEHNrisk is controlled by the user administration integrated in the Webapplication DEHNproject. The Webapplications-Administrator of the Webapplication DEHNproject is also the Webapplications-Administrator for the Webapplication DEHNrisk (hereinafter “Webapplications-Administrator”).
- Licence packages for the Webapplication DEHNrisk can be booked using the booking form provided by DEHN. Once the Webapplications-Administrator has filled in all of the mandatory fields and has agreed to these SLC on behalf of the Customer, the Webapplications-Administrator can send the booking to DEHN. The user agreement for the Webapplication DEHNrisk is concluded between the Customer and DEHN on receipt of the first booking for a licence package for the Webapplication DEHNrisk with DEHN.
- After a successful booking in accordance with clause 2.3, the Webapplications-Administrator is entitled to use the Services via the Webapplications-Account.
- The Webapplications-Administrator can grant employees of the Customer authorisation for use of the Webapplication DEHNrisk within the scope of the booked licences. In addition to write and read permissions for the Webapplication DEHNrisk, the Webapplications-Administrator can also grant Authorised Users the right to grant authorisation to further employees of the Customer for use of the Webapplication DEHNrisk within the scope of the booked licences.
- A requirement for the use of DEHNrisk as an Authorised User is that a Webapplications-Useraccount for DEHNproject has been opened for the Authorised User in accordance with clauses 2.5 and 2.6 of the STU and that this Webapplications-Useraccount has not been deactivated in accordance with clause 9.2 of the STU.
- Use of the Services
- In addition to the minimum requirements set out in clause 3.1 of the GTU, the use of the Services requires the download and installation of the Client-Software on the internet-capable end device. The system requirements of the Client-Software are set out in the Specification of Services available at https://www.dehn-international.com/en/products/services/dehnproject/specification-of-services.
- Services provided by DEHN
- The content, scope and quality of the Services is set out exclusively in the Specification of Services available at https://www.dehn-international.com/en/products/services/dehnproject/specification-of-services.
- Some of the Services are provided by DEHN as web-based cloud services and some via the Client-Software.
- Rights of Use
- Once a booking has been made in accordance with clause 2.2, for the term of the user agreement DEHN grants the Customer a non-exclusive and non-transferable right, limited in time, which cannot be sublicensed, to use the Webapplication DEHNrisk and the Client-Software in accordance with the provisions of these SLC, the STU and the GTU.
- The right of use includes installation of the Client-Software, loading, displaying and running the installed Client-Software as well as saving the Software in the random-access memory (RAM) of the computer on which the Client-Software is installed. DEHN does not grant any further-reaching rights in the Client-Software.
- The scope of the rights of use granted for the Webapplication DEHNrisk, such as, in particular, the maximum number of Authorised Users using the Webapplication DEHNrisk simultaneously and the storage space available in the Webapplication DEHNrisk, is determined on the basis of the licence packages booked by the Customer.
- The scope of the rights of use granted for the Client-Software, especially the specific extent of the rights and the maximum number of copies of the Client-Software which can be used simultaneously, is determined by the licence packages booked by the Customer.
- The Customer does not have a right to use the Client-Software or parts of the Client-Software in a manner which goes beyond the use permitted under these SLC; the Customer is especially prohibited from hiring out the Client-Software or placing it in the public domain.
- The Services and the Client-Software are protected by copyright. DEHN owns the rights.
- Fees
- The fees due for the Services are calculated on the basis of the prices stated at the time when the licence packages are booked
- DEHN reserves the right to adjust the fee model from time to time. Adjustments only apply when extending or booking new licence packages. Ongoing licence packages are not affected by the adjustments. DEHN will inform the Customer in due time of fee adjustments – at least 6 (six) weeks before the adjustment so that the Customer, should it not agree to the fee adjustment, can terminate the respective licence package in accordance with clause 7.3 with effect from the end of the term.
- For the first booking, there is a free test phase of 60 (sixty) days for use of the Services (hereinafter “Test-Phase”). The licence package for the Test-Phase is only available once per Customer, unless the Customer receives a separate offer for an additional free Test-Phase from DEHN. In this Test-Phase the scope of the Services available to the Customer is reduced in terms of the functions offered (hereinafter “Demo-Version”). On expiry of the Test-Phase, the user agreement for the licence package for the Test-Phase will terminate automatically without the need for a separate notice of termination. After the end of the Test-Phase, the Customer must book a licence package for the full version in order to be able to use the fee-based Services without restriction with the full version. The Customer has the possibility of converting the licence from the Demo-Version to a fee-based full version before the end of the Test-Phase.
- In the event of converting the licence from the Demo-Version to licence packages of the full version in accordance with clause 6.3 sentence 6, the duty to pay the fees owed results upon converting the licence from the Demo-Version to the full version. If further licence packages are booked, the duty to make payment results at the time of the booking.
- The duty to pay the fees owed applies regardless of whether the Services are actually used.
- For the event that the Services cease being provided in accordance with clause 4.7 of the GTU, DEHN will reimburse the Customer the fees already paid for the remaining term(s) of the licence packages booked during which the Customer can no longer use the Services as a result of the fact that they are no longer being provided.
- The fees to be paid are due for immediate payment without deductions on receipt of the invoice.
- If the Customer defaults with payment, DEHN has right to claim default interest of 8 % points above the respective base interest rate in accordance with section 288 German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch – BGB). If DEHN can prove higher default damage, DEHN has a right to claim this higher amount. The Customer has a right to prove that DEHN incurred lower default damage.
- Notwithstanding the provision in clause 6.8, in the case of non-payment or late payment of fees owed, DEHN can block access of the Customer, the Webapplications-Administrator and the Authorised Users to the affected Webapplication DEHNrisk. DEHN's rights under clause 8.9 of the GTU remain unaffected.
- The Customer does not have the right to offset counterclaims (i) disputed by DEHN or (ii) which are not final and absolute or to assert a right of retention in this respect.
- Term and termination
- The user agreement for the Webapplication DEHNrisk runs for an unlimited term. It only ends when the Customer has terminated all of the licence packages.
- Each licence package for DEHNrisk has a term of 12 (twelve) months. The term begins when the licence package is booked in accordance with clause 2.3.
- The term of a licence package is automatically extended on expiry of the term by a further 12 (twelve) months unless the Customer terminates the licence package ordinarily with notice with effect from the end of the term.
- If DEHN grants the Customer a Test-Phase for a licence package when booking, the Customer can terminate the licence package ordinarily during this Test-Phase at any time without notice. If the Customer does not terminate before the end of the Test-Phase, then the user agreement for the licence package for the Test-Phase will terminate automatically at the end of the Test-Phase without the need for a separate notice of termination. The Customer will lose its right of termination according to sentence 1 if it switches from the Demo-Version to the full version during the Test-Phase.
- In all other respects ordinary termination of licence packages by the Customer is excluded.
- On termination of the user agreement for the Webapplication DEHNrisk, access of the Customer, the Webapplications-Administrators and the Authorised Users to the Webapplication DEHNrisk affected by the termination will be blocked. The data saved in the Webapplication DEHNrisk will remain saved as long as the respective Webapplications-Account for DEHNproject is active. Four (4) weeks after termination of the user agreement for the Webapplication DEHNproject, the data saved in DEHNrisk will also be deleted. During these 4 (four) weeks, DEHN will make it possible for the Customer to export the content contributed by the Customer in a customary standard format.
