8.8 The Customer undertakes to comply with the statutory provisions on copyrights, third party rights, personal rights and intellectual property rights such as copyrights, licenses, patent or trademark rights and, if applicable, to acquire distribution rights.

In the event of a complaint or if awesome.cloud concludes that the Customer has committed any of the following or other violations in particular -.

Fraud, IT crime, money laundering, betrayal of trade secrets, falsification of documents, violence and threats against authorities and officials, illegal gambling, participation in a crime (participation, instigation, aiding and abetting and complicity), distribution or provision of illegal content, depictions of violence, so-called soft and hard pornography (pornographic content may be released, if the customer implements effective controls to ensure that only adults have access to this content), incitement to disturb the public peace, violation of religious and cultural freedom, racial discrimination, defamation, terrorism, pedophilia, anti-Semitism or content that incites hatred against people because of their religion, sexual orientation or identity, disability, invasion of privacy, etc. inciting hatred against people on the basis of their religion, sexual orientation or identity, disability, violation of privacy, etc., or illegal or improper use of content (e.g. misuse of content or use of content in violation of third party rights (e.g. personality rights, copyrights, patent or trademark rights or other intellectual property rights))

– all or certain services provided under the Agreement may be suspended, the Customer’s account may be deactivated and/or the Agreement may be terminated due to the fault of the Customer, subject to any compensation to which awesome.cloud may be entitled.

Consequently, awesome.cloud cannot be held liable under any circumstances for the content of the information transmitted, disseminated or collected, nor for its use and updating, or for files, in particular address files. awesome.cloud can only draw the customer’s attention to the legal consequences that unauthorized use of this service may entail, and accepts no liability whatsoever for the use of the data that the customer makes available to Internet users. The same applies if the Customer is proven to be intentionally or negligently sending spam or hacking or attempting to hack through the Service (including port scanning, sniffing, spoofing, etc.).

8.9 Sending spam is prohibited in any case. It is also prohibited to send mass e-mails via the services of awesome.cloud:

  • to persons who have not requested them;
  • to distribution lists compiled, purchased or rented online or by other means;
  • related to a topic other than the one specified when the distribution list was created, and if they have a high rejection rate (bounces, invalid email addresses, unsubscribes, etc.).

This also applies if the customer commissions an external service provider/service to send emails via a domain hosted by awesome.cloud.

Dual consent is the only acceptable method for creating a valid list of email addresses:

An e-mail address is only effectively added to a list when the owner of the e-mail address clicks on a link in an e-mail to confirm the subscription. By doing so, the addressee confirms that he or she has carried out the subscription.

Each member of a list used by a mailing or newsletter tool must receive the necessary information to unsubscribe along with each email, or must be able to easily unsubscribe at any time.

A complaint of spamming may result in suspension and, if necessary, termination of the service in question if the sender of the e-mail cannot prove that each registered member voluntarily registered electronically (date/e-mail address/IP address).

8.10 The Customer undertakes to defend, indemnify and hold harmless awesome.cloud and all persons involved in the provision of the relevant services against all claims, demands, liabilities, costs and/or expenses arising from the unlawful use of the service or its content.

Use of software licenses

In particular, for use on hardware shared by multiple customers (shared infrastructure). For example, the use of the following software is not permitted by the manufacturer’s license agreements:

  • Microsoft 365 Windows applications (Business and Enterprise plans)
  • Microsoft Teams Windows application
  • Microsoft Windows 10 and above
  • Microsoft SQL Server Express from version 2019

9.2 If the customer obtains software licenses from awesome.cloud in the rental model, he is obliged to actively adjust changes in the license quantities on a monthly basis in the portal or report the changes to awesome.cloud. The determining factor for most licenses is the number of users who could technically use a software in a particular month. If not all existing users are licensed, access must be restricted by means of appropriate (NTFS) permissions.

9.3 If awesome.cloud incurs costs in the event of an audit by a software manufacturer on the customer’s services, which could have been prevented by the customer’s correct compliance with the license agreements, these costs will be charged to the customer in full.

11.3 If one of the parties fails to fulfill one of its obligations under the Agreement and does not remedy such breach within seven business days after the complaining party has reported the relevant breaches either by e-mail or by any other binding notification provided for in the Agreement, the Agreement shall be terminated with legal effect, subject to any claims for damages by the party at fault.

18.3 Third-party legal proceedings against the Customer shall also be deemed indirect damages and shall therefore not give rise to a claim for damages. In any case, the amounts of damages attributable to awesome.cloud (to the extent awesome.cloud can be held liable for them) shall be limited to the amount of the amounts awesome.cloud invoices to the Customer and which are paid by the Customer and/or to the share of the amounts paid for the performance for which awesome.cloud is liable.
