Objectionable Content

Content may not be submitted to the products and FBS moderates all content and ultimately decides whether or not to post a submission to the extent such content includes, is in conjunction with, or alongside any, Objectionable Content. Objectionable Content includes, but is not limited to: (i) sexually explicit materials; (ii) obscene, defamatory, libelous, slanderous, violent and/or unlawful content or profanity; (iii) content that infringes upon the rights of any third party, including copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity or other personal or proprietary right, or that is deceptive or fraudulent; (iv) content that promotes the use or sale of illegal or regulated substances, tobacco products, ammunition and/or firearms; and (v) gambling, including without limitation, any online casino, sports books, bingo or poker.

Offered Information

Although the information on all FBS websites and the information contained within its products – with the exception of the user-generated content – is made with great care and accuracy, reliability and suitability cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, relying on the information on the FBS websites or the information contained within its products, whether or not originating from FBS, is completely at the user's own risk.

Users can communicate with each other within the products, e.g. by placing comments or sending messages or discussing within groups. The user declares not to send spam or any other communications which is undesired by the receiver, being commercial or otherwise, including, but not limited to, threatening, aggressive, obscene, ignominious, offensive, privacy infringing or commercial communications. Any acts contrary to these conditions can – as with the other conditions – result in immediate denial of access and use of the products and services of FBS and termination of the user license.

Information from Third Parties

The products may contain information from third parties or refer thereto, including but not restricted to information created by users, advertisements, banners and/or website links (hereafter: “Information from Third Parties”).

 

Information from Third Parties generally is and cannot be previously checked by FBS, which means that we cannot guarantee the quality and validity thereof. FBS is not responsible or liable for Information from Third Parties, nor for the possible direct or indirect damage that may result from it.

Third Parties may connect to FBS via the API of FBS or obtain access to publicly available data contained within the products, including possibly personal user data that has been published on the products with the user’s permission. Besides that, Third Parties can obtain access to public and closed personal data via the API, when a user explicitly gives permission for it. These Terms of Use and the Privacy Statement of FBS do in principle not apply to Information from Third Parties unless otherwise described therein. These Third Parties may use different general terms and conditions and privacy statements. FBS shall also be entitled to invoice users for any Third-Party fees, costs and expenses necessary to provide the products and services to the user, including any subsequent changes thereto.

 

Unlawful Information

After a report of unlawful conduct, FBS will investigate the presence of unlawful information in one or more of the products within a reasonable time and will take action against it if possible. Any unlawful communication should be reported directly via e-mail to [email protected]. This report should in any case contain the following information:

1. a) The URL or screenshot where the alleged unlawful information can be found.
2. b) An explicit statement of the reporter that the material is unlawful and why.
3. c) In case it is a case of infringement of rights of intellectual property, the reporter needs to substantiate that he / she is the rightful owner of said rights, and to which extent the information infringes said rights.
4. d) In case the reporter represents someone else, an authorization that allows the reporter to act on behalf of the rightful claimant, signed by the rightful claimant.
5. e) The reporter’s name, e-mail address, mailing address and phone number.

 

Paid Products

The listed prices of the products are in Euros or USD, as applicable, and exclude value-added tax, unless explicitly stated otherwise. All listed prices are conditional and can be adjusted without prior notice. User shall direct questions with respect to license fees to [email protected].

 

The license duration is for a period of 1 month or 12 months. After the license duration, your license will automatically be renewed for consecutive 1 or 12 month periods respectively. Your license can be terminated at the end of every month or 12 month period, taking into account a required cancellation notice of one month prior to the end of said period.

 

Any termination, regardless of the reason thereof, shall entitle FBS to require payment of the full amount owed under the applicable License Agreement as if the full license period thereunder had been completed in full.

 

If an invoice has not been paid within 30 days after it has come due, FBS has the right to increase the total amount payable immediately by 10% and increase this amount by another 5% for each 30-day period that passes in which such invoice remains unpaid, or the maximum amount allowed in a specific country. User is limited to thirty days following issuance of any invoice to object thereto or user shall be deemed to have consented thereto.

 

The products and services of FBS shall be delivered as soon as possible or within the agreed period after payment. FBS reserves the right to restrict access in the event of repeated non-payment or delayed payments for any product or service. FBS accepts no liability for any damage in case the delivery takes place after the agreed period.

 

 

 

 

Modifications to the Products

FBS explicitly reserves the right at any time to modify, stop or change all or a part thereof of one or more of its products or services, for a determined period or in perpetuity, without prior notification or after to the user, whether it concerns paid or unpaid products. This may also result in inaccessibility or loss of a part or the whole of the Shared Information, including the Shared Information of the user. FBS cannot be held liable for any direct or indirect damage resulting thereof. In case of such a modification of the products, for whatever reason, the user will have on his request the (already) paid amounts to FBS or her partners refunded pro rata, subject to the discretion of FBS. For the avoidance of doubt, user shall have no right to pause the license period for any of the products or services; any such action shall be in the sole discretion of FBS.

 

Modification of Terms of Use

FBS reserves the right to change these Terms of Use at any time. After such a modification, the modified Terms of Use will be offered for inspection immediately on FBS’ website. By using the website and the other products of FBS after changes to the Terms of Use, the user shall be deemed to agree to the modified Terms of Use.

 

Conformity and Exclusion of Liability

The products and the content thereof are delivered by FBS as such, including potential defects. Neither FBS, nor its representatives, partners or suppliers give any guarantee, explicit or implicit, regarding the functionality of the products or services or any content thereof.

 

FBS cannot and does not guarantee that the products or services are available at any moment at any location, and that said availability will occur safely, or that any errors will be solved or that the products will be free from viruses or other potentially damaging software or parts.

 

The user acknowledges that the products may contain potential defects and accepts the risks for any direct or indirect damage that may occur thereof. In no case shall FBS be held liable by user or any third-parties in the case of damages resulting directly or indirectly in the case of any defect in its products or services. FBS’ liability shall in any case be limited to the equivalent of six months license paid by the user or EURO 2,500.00, whichever is less. The user cannot terminate any agreement with FBS based on actual or perceived non-compliance with any term thereof.
