1. Operator and scope
Curlydots is operated by Sopamo GmbH, Wilhelm-Sprott-Str. 23a, 24235 Laboe, Germany.
These terms apply to access to curlydots.com, related localized landing pages, and the Curlydots application made available by us. They do not replace mandatory consumer law or individually negotiated agreements.
2. Nature of the offer
The landing page is primarily an informational and lead-generation offer. Simply visiting the website or submitting a beta request does not by itself create a paid software contract.
If we activate an account for you, invite you into a workspace, or separately agree on paid services, the resulting contractual relationship is governed by these terms together with any additional contractual documents that apply to the concrete service.
3. Registration and account duties
You must provide accurate and complete information when registering or accepting invitations, keep your access credentials confidential, and protect your account against unauthorized access.
You are responsible for activities carried out under your account unless they are caused by our fault. You must notify us without undue delay if you suspect unauthorized use.
4. Permitted use and prohibited conduct
- You may use Curlydots only for lawful business purposes and in accordance with these terms.
- You may not interfere with the security, availability, or integrity of the service.
- You may not upload unlawful content, malicious code, or material that infringes third-party rights.
- You may not attempt unauthorized access, reverse engineer protected parts of the service beyond what mandatory law permits, or abuse the service for spam, scraping, or bulk attacks.
5. Customer content and AI-assisted features
You remain responsible for the legality, accuracy, and rights clearance of the content you submit to Curlydots, including source texts, translation memories, examples, project rules, and any personal data contained in them.
You may only submit content if you have the necessary rights and, where personal data is involved, a valid data-protection basis. You should avoid submitting special-category or otherwise unnecessary personal data to AI features unless this is strictly required and legally justified.
AI-generated results can be incorrect, incomplete, or contextually unsuitable. You must review outputs before publication or operational use and remain responsible for final decisions made on the basis of those outputs.
6. Availability, maintenance, and beta status
We may change, expand, limit, or discontinue features where this is reasonable for technical, security, legal, or product reasons. We may perform maintenance and updates as needed.
Features labeled as beta, preview, or early access may contain errors, change more frequently, and may be made available with reduced support expectations.
7. Intellectual property
All rights in the Curlydots service, the website, software, designs, and underlying materials remain with us or our licensors unless expressly stated otherwise.
Subject to the applicable contract, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the service for your own internal business purposes during the agreed term.
8. Fees and payment
Fees, billing periods, and payment conditions apply only if and to the extent they are explicitly agreed with you. Pricing information on the website is non-binding unless expressly marked otherwise.
9. Liability
We are fully liable for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body, or health, under the Product Liability Act, and wherever liability is mandatory under statute.
In cases of slight negligence, we are liable only for breach of an essential contractual obligation whose fulfillment is necessary for the proper performance of the contract and on whose observance you may regularly rely. In that case, liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract.
Any further liability on our part is excluded to the extent permitted by law.
10. Term and termination
Unless a more specific contract provides otherwise, the user relationship runs for an indefinite period and may be terminated by either party in text form. The right to terminate for good cause remains unaffected.
We may suspend or block access if this is necessary to protect the service, investigate abuse, comply with legal obligations, or respond to a material breach of these terms.
11. Consumer dispute resolution
We are neither obliged nor willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.
12. Applicable law and place of jurisdiction
German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Mandatory consumer-protection provisions of the state in which a consumer has their habitual residence remain unaffected where applicable.
If you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with the contractual relationship is our registered seat.
