Last updated: July 2026
§ 1 Scope, Provider
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to all contracts for the use of the software-as-a-service platform “BauDir” (hereinafter the “Platform” or “BauDir”) between
Saman Razavi, Softwarehouse Cologne, Ubierring 19, 50678 Köln, Germany, Email: info@baudir.app (hereinafter the “Provider”)
and its customers (hereinafter the “Customer”). A Customer within the meaning of these Terms is both a consumer (Section 13 BGB (German Civil Code)) and an entrepreneur (Section 14 BGB). Any conflicting terms of the Customer do not become part of the contract unless the Provider expressly agrees to their validity in text form.
§ 2 Subject Matter and Services
The Provider makes available to the Customer, over the internet, a white-label application with which the Customer can create and operate its own installable web app (Progressive Web App), a website, and a tablet view. The scope of functionality depends on the plan selected:
- Standard: app, website & tablet, page builder with live preview, unlimited push notifications, QR code, and a custom app icon.
- Premium: all Standard features plus anonymous, GDPR-compliant usage statistics, as well as removal of the “Powered by BauDir” notice.
The respective current description of services follows from the presentation on the Platform at the time the contract is concluded. The Provider renders its services as a service; no software is transferred to the Customer. The Platform is continuously developed further; the Provider is entitled to adjust features, provided that the contractually owed core scope is preserved.
§ 3 Registration and Conclusion of Contract
Use of the service requires the registration of an account with accurate information. Upon registration, an initial free-of-charge usage relationship for the free trial period is established (§ 4). A paid contract is concluded when the Customer selects a plan in the “My Subscription” area, completes the ordering process via our payment service provider Stripe, and confirms the order as subject to payment by clicking the correspondingly labeled button. The Provider then confirms the conclusion of the contract by email on a durable medium.
§ 4 Free Trial Period
New customers can test the Platform free of charge for the period stated on the Platform (typically 14 days). The trial period does not automatically convert into a paid contract; such a contract arises only through the active selection of a plan subject to payment in accordance with § 3. If no paid plan is selected before the end of the trial period, the published app is taken offline after the trial ends.
§ 5 Prices and Payment
The prices stated on the Platform at the time of the order apply. These are final prices including statutory value added tax (currently 19%). At the time these Terms were drawn up, they are:
- Standard plan: €29.99 per month (incl. VAT)
- Premium plan: €39.99 per month (incl. VAT)
No setup fee applies. Billing takes place monthly in advance via the payment service provider Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd.). For this, the Customer keeps a valid means of payment on file. Invoices are provided electronically. If the Customer defaults on payment, the Provider is entitled to temporarily suspend access after payment has failed; further statutory rights remain unaffected.
§ 6 Term and Termination
The paid contract is concluded for an indefinite period with a billing cycle of one month and automatically renews for a further month in each case unless it is terminated. The contract may be terminated by both parties at any time by ordinary notice with effect from the end of the current billing cycle; fees already paid for the current cycle are not refunded on a pro-rata basis, and access remains in place until the end of the cycle.
The Customer can terminate the contract conveniently at any time via the “My Subscription” function in their account as well as via the permanently available cancellation button. Termination by email to info@baudir.app is also possible. The Provider confirms receipt as well as the time of the termination and the end of the contract without undue delay on a durable medium. The right to extraordinary termination for good cause remains unaffected for both parties.
§ 7 Right of Withdrawal for Consumers
Consumers have a statutory right of withdrawal. Details can be found in the separate right-of-withdrawal notice, which also includes the model withdrawal form.
§ 8 Customer Obligations and Content
The Customer is solely responsible for the content it posts and for compliance with the applicable laws. The Customer warrants that it will not publish any unlawful, infringing, or immoral content and will not infringe any third-party rights (in particular copyright, trademark, and personality rights). Access credentials must be kept confidential.
In particular, the Customer may only post images, graphics, and other media for which it holds the necessary rights of use (own works, acquired licenses, or content under a permissible free license); the Customer is responsible for fulfilling any attribution obligations on its own responsibility. If the Customer breaches these obligations, it shall indemnify the Provider against all third-party claims asserted against the Provider on account of a legal infringement caused by the content posted by the Customer. The Customer shall reimburse the Provider for the costs necessary for an appropriate legal defense, including statutory attorney and court costs; further claims of the Provider remain unaffected. The Provider shall inform the Customer without undue delay of any such claim and shall — where possible — give the Customer the opportunity to comment.
The Platform offers a feature that automatically generates legal texts (in particular a legal notice and a privacy policy) from the information provided by the Customer. These automatically generated texts are a non-binding technical aid and do not constitute legal advice. The Provider accepts no liability for their accuracy, completeness, or legal suitability in the individual case. The Customer remains solely responsible for reviewing the generated texts before publication and — where necessary — obtaining legal advice. The Provider’s liability for the automatically generated legal texts is excluded in accordance with § 10.
If the Customer processes personal data of its own end users via the Platform, the Provider acts as a processor in this respect. The provided data processing agreement (DPA) pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR applies.
§ 9 Availability, Maintenance
The Provider endeavors to achieve the highest possible availability of the Platform but does not owe any specific level of availability. Excluded are periods during which the Platform is unavailable or only available to a limited extent due to maintenance work, disruptions outside the Provider’s sphere of control (e.g. force majeure, third-party outages), or necessary security measures. Scheduled maintenance work is, where possible, carried out during off-peak times.
§ 10 Liability
The Provider is liable without limitation for damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health, as well as for damages based on intent or gross negligence, and under the German Product Liability Act. In the event of a slightly negligent breach of a material contractual obligation (cardinal obligation), the fulfillment of which is what makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose observance the Customer may regularly rely, liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract. In all other respects, liability for slight negligence is excluded.
The Customer is responsible for backing up its own data regularly. The Provider is liable for the loss of data only to the extent that the Customer has carried out a reasonable data backup and the damage would also have occurred even with a proper backup.
§ 11 Data Protection
The processing of personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy.
§ 12 Amendments to These Terms
The Provider may amend these Terms with effect for the future, provided that this is necessary for a valid reason (e.g. a changed legal situation, supreme court case law, expansion of the range of services) and does not unreasonably disadvantage the Customer. The Customer will be informed of amendments in text form at least six weeks before they take effect. If the Customer does not object within six weeks of receiving the notice, the amendments are deemed accepted; this will be specifically pointed out in the notice. A change to the main contractual obligations or an increase in the ongoing fee is not made by way of this deemed-consent mechanism; it requires a separate offer of amendment that the Customer must expressly accept. If the Customer does not accept such an offer, the previous contract remains in place. In the event of an objection to other amendments, both parties are entitled to terminate the contract with effect from the date the amendments take effect.
§ 13 Final Provisions
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If the Customer is a consumer, mandatory consumer protection provisions of the state of their habitual residence remain unaffected. If the Customer is an entrepreneur, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract is the Provider’s registered office (Köln). Should any provision of these Terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected.
