(i) The object of the Contract is the provision of the SaaS Services commissioned by the Customer and agreed in the Individual Contract as well as the provision of additional services, if and insofar as these are specified in the Individual Contract.

(ii) Carbonwize reserves the right to amend or supplement these Terms with effect for the future. Carbonwize shall inform the Customer about any amendments and supplements by notifying the Customer of the content of the amended or supplemented provisions in text form (e.g. by email or by notification when logging onto the Platform) in advance and with a reasonable period of notice, but at least four weeks before the amendments/supplements are scheduled to take effect.

In its notice of the change, Carbonwize shall point out to the Customer separately the Customer's right of objection and the aforementioned legal consequences of not responding.

3. Scope of Service, Authority to Change

(i) This Contract covers neither the Customer's connection to the internet and maintenance of the network connection nor the procurement and provision of the hardware required for this on the part of the Customer.

(ii) The SaaS services can be used without additional support from Carbonwize. If the Customer wishes to make use of onboarding services or other services in connection with configuration, customizing, integration, Co-Creation, training or adaptation of the SaaS Services a separate assignment and a separate remuneration is required.

Insofar as Carbonwize provides such upgrades and extensions free of charge, the Customer shall have no legal claim to their provision. Carbonwize shall inform the Customer about any discontinuation of the free services.

(iv) Carbonwize reserves the right to make changes in order to adapt the Platform and SaaS Services to the state of the art, changes for optimisation purposes (in particular to enhance user-friendliness), as well as changes to content, insofar as the latter are necessary to correct errors, for updating and completing content, for technically optimizing programs or for licensing reasons. If such a change leads to a not only insignificant devaluation of the Contractual Services, the Customer shall be entitled to either demand a reduction of the remuneration in line with the devaluation or terminate the Contract without notice. This right of termination may be exercised within a period of eight weeks from the occurrence of the change.

4. User Account, Access Data

Customer’s access to the Platform shall be password-protected and limited to the number of Authorized Users specified in the Individual Contract. Access credentials will be issued by Carbonwize via encrypted email links, and each credential shall be unique to a single Authorized User.

Sharing of credentials or enabling access to unauthorized third parties is strictly prohibited. Customer must notify Carbonwize without undue delay of any suspected or actual misuse of credentials. Carbonwize reserves the right to suspend or revoke access if misuse is suspected and may reset credentials for security reasons, with prior notice where practicable. This does not affect Carbonwize’s right to seek damages or other legal remedies.
