Terms and Conditions

General Terms and Conditions ScopeRight UG

§1 Scope

These General Terms and Conditions apply exclusively to entrepreneurs within the meaning of Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB). Consumers within the meaning of Section 13 BGB are excluded from using the services.

§2 Subject of Services

The company provides software-based information services as well as project-related consulting and project management services in the field of regulatory requirements and certification procedures. The company does not perform inspections, tests, conformity assessments or regulatory approval procedures and does not act as a testing body, notified body or authority.

§3 Conclusion of Contract

The presentation of services on the website does not constitute a binding offer. A contract is concluded exclusively through an individual order placed by the customer and acceptance by the company or through written order confirmation.

§4 Types of Contract

Software services are provided on the basis of a separate software agreement. Project management and consulting services are commissioned on a project basis and end upon completion of the respective project without automatic renewal.

§5 Term of Software Contracts

Software contracts are concluded for a fixed term of twelve months and are automatically extended by a further twelve months unless terminated with three months’ notice before the end of the respective contract term.

§6 Usage Rights

The customer receives a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the provided content and software functions for the duration of the contract. Use is permitted exclusively for the customer’s own business purposes.

In particular, the following are prohibited:

– using the services for competitive purposes

– systematic extraction, scraping, or forwarding of information, data, or work results

– providing the content to third parties without explicit written consent

– any automated access to the systems, in particular through bots, scripts, or comparable technologies

– using the provided data, content, or results for the direct or indirect training of artificial intelligence systems or machine learning models

§7 Prices and Payment Terms

All prices are net prices plus the applicable statutory value-added tax. For subscriptions, the remuneration is payable annually in advance. For services independent of the software, such as project management, remuneration is agreed individually.

§8 No Approval Guarantee

The services constitute certification consulting. No guarantee or assurance is given that a product will successfully obtain regulatory approval, certification, or pass testing procedures. Responsibility for product decisions and regulatory implementation remains solely with the customer.

§9 Liability

(1) The services provided by the company constitute exclusively informational and consulting services. Decisions regarding product development, conformity assessment, certification procedures, testing, as well as the provision of product samples, technical documentation, and product information are made solely by the customer or by testing bodies or laboratories commissioned by the customer.

(2) Where services are provided via a software-based tool, the generated results are based solely on the product information entered by the customer and on the system-based assignment of product categories and radio applications to relevant regulatory requirements.

The customer is responsible for ensuring that all entries are complete, accurate, and up to date. The company assumes no liability for incomplete, incorrect, or misleading information provided by the customer.

(3) The information provided by the tool constitutes a structured orientation aid. It does not replace individual legal advice, regulatory evaluation, or final conformity assessment by an authorized body. No warranty is given regarding regulatory completeness or official recognition of the generated results.

(4) The company assumes no responsibility for testing, certification, or approval outcomes or for decisions made by authorities, testing bodies, or notified bodies.

(5) The company’s liability—regardless of legal grounds—is excluded unless damages result from intentional or grossly negligent conduct by the company, its legal representatives, or its agents.

(6) To the extent that liability is not excluded under the above provisions, it shall—except in cases of intent or gross negligence—be limited in amount to the remuneration paid by the customer in the respective contract year. The decisive amount is the net remuneration actually paid within the twelve months preceding the occurrence of the damaging event. Liability per damage event and in total is limited to this amount.

(7) Liability for loss of profit, production downtime, indirect damages, and costs associated with testing, certification, or approval procedures is excluded.

§10 Final Provisions

German law shall apply. The place of jurisdiction is the registered office of the company. Should individual provisions be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.
