1. Provider and scope

1.1 The website https://riffbox.effigies.tech and the software "riffbox" are provided and operated by:

the sole proprietor (Einzelunternehmer) named in the Imprint, email: unbecand@gmail.com (the "Operator").

1.2 These Terms of Service apply to - (a) visiting and using the website https://riffbox.effigies.tech, and - (b) the riffbox software, to the extent it is used through the interfaces of third-party platforms.

1.3 The legal notice required by Sec. 5 of the German Digital Services Act (DDG) is in the Imprint. Privacy information is in the Privacy Policy.

2. The riffbox software

2.1 riffbox is software operated internally by the Operator. It is used only by the Operator for the Operator's own accounts on third-party platforms.

2.2 riffbox is not available for public use. There is no sign-up, no user accounts, no download and no access for third parties. These Terms do not create any right to use, access or be provided with the software.

2.3 The Operator grants no rights to third parties in the software, its source code, documentation or configuration. Any attempt to access the software, its interfaces, storage or download links without permission is prohibited.

2.4 The website describes the project for information only. The description is not an offer and does not promise any particular functionality.

3. Platform terms

3.1 riffbox uses the official interfaces of YouTube, TikTok, Instagram/Meta, X, Twitch and, where applicable, Reddit. The use of these platforms is additionally governed by their own terms:

3.2 As only the Operator uses riffbox, the Operator is the only user within the meaning of these platform terms and undertakes to comply with them.

3.3 The platforms are not parties to these Terms and are not responsible for riffbox. riffbox is not a product of these platforms and is not endorsed or reviewed by them, unless expressly stated otherwise.

4. Use of the website

4.1 The website is free to use and requires no registration. It uses no cookies and no tracking.

4.2 The website content is for information only. The Operator prepares it with care but, to the extent permitted by law, gives no warranty as to its accuracy, completeness or currency.

4.3 The Operator may change, restrict or discontinue the website in whole or in part at any time. There is no entitlement to availability.

4.4 In particular, it is prohibited to - (a) interfere with the website's technical infrastructure, e.g. through attacks, overloading or circumventing security measures, - (b) retrieve the website automatically in bulk where this impairs its operation.

4.5 External links: the website contains links to third-party websites. The respective provider is solely responsible for their content. No legal violations were apparent when the links were set. If the Operator becomes aware of any violation, the link will be removed without undue delay.

5. Intellectual property

5.1 Texts, graphics, logos and design of the website and the riffbox software are protected by copyright or other rights. Unless stated otherwise, the Operator holds these rights.

5.2 Any use beyond what is permitted by law, such as copying, editing or distribution, requires the Operator's prior consent.

5.3 Trademarks and logos of the platforms mentioned belong to their respective owners and are named only to describe the interfaces.

5.4 If you believe that material in one of the Operator's videos infringes your rights, contact unbecand@gmail.com. The process is described in the Privacy Policy.

6. Liability

6.1 The Operator is liable without limitation - (a) for intent and gross negligence, - (b) for injury to life, body or health, - (c) under the German Product Liability Act, - (d) to the extent of any guarantee given and for fraudulently concealed defects.

6.2 For slightly negligent breach of an essential obligation (cardinal obligation), liability is limited to the damage that was foreseeable and typical at the time the contract was concluded. Essential obligations are those whose fulfilment makes proper performance possible in the first place and on whose fulfilment one may regularly rely.

6.3 Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded.

6.4 These limitations also apply in favour of the Operator's vicarious agents.

6.5 Mandatory statutory liability, in particular under the GDPR, remains unaffected.

7. Changes

The Operator may amend these Terms with effect for the future, e.g. for new features, changes in the law or changed platform requirements. The version published on this page applies. The date at the top shows when it was last updated.

8. Governing law and jurisdiction

8.1 These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

8.2 For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that it does not deprive them of the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of their country of habitual residence (Art. 6(2) Rome I Regulation).

8.3 If the user is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, or has no general place of jurisdiction in Germany, the place of jurisdiction for all disputes is the Operator's place of business. Statutory exclusive places of jurisdiction remain unaffected.

9. Dispute resolution

The Operator is neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (Sec. 36 German Consumer Dispute Resolution Act, VSBG).

10. Final provisions

10.1 If any provision of these Terms is invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions is unaffected. The statutory provision replaces the invalid one.

10.2 These Terms are available in German and English. In case of discrepancies, the German version prevails.
