General terms and conditions

a) Scope

These terms and conditions apply to all business relations between Stackfield GmbH, Maximiliansplatz 17, 80333 München, represented by its Managing Director: Mr. Cristian Mudure (hereinafter called Stackfield) and their Users, in the version valid at the time of contract conclusion. Opposing general terms and conditions of the User are hereby expressly excluded.

b) Contract Agreement

c) Subsequent changes of the Terms and Conditions

Stackfield is authorized to subsequently adjust and supplement the terms and conditions of existing users, as far as changes in legislation or prevailing case-law require or other circumstances render that the contractual equivalence ratio is not only disturbed slightly. A subsequent change of the general terms and conditions will take effect if the user does not contradict within six weeks after notification of the changes. Stackfield will explicitly inform the user at the beginning of this period that his silence will be considered as acceptance of the contract amendment and that he has the possibility to submit an explicit statement.

§ 2 Service provision

a) 14-day Trial

The user has to confirm his registration by clicking on this link. With the confirmation of the registration, the user makes a binding contractual offer. The confirmation mail does not represent a binding acceptance of the registration by Stackfield. Stackfield is entitled to accept the contractual offer within two days by e-mail, fax, telephone or mail. By accepting, the contract between Stackfield and the user is concluded.

b) Paid continued use

The user needs to deposit valid billing information and all other required information (e.g. name, address, number of booked accounts) in order to access the data rooms of his organization after the 14-day trial phase. After entering his information the user has to confirm the continued use of Stackfield by clicking on the button “Confirm Payment”.

There will be no costs for users who don’t log in after the 14-day trial phase. Stackfield will delete the user account after 3 months.

c) Contract term

Depending on the chosen contract, the duration and billing unit of the contract are one month or one year. Unless the contract has been cancelled before expiry of the term of the contract, the contract will be extended by the respective agreed term. This does not affect the right to terminate the contract for important reasons.

d) Storage of the contract text
