TERMS OF USE OF WWW.PANONO.COM
§ 1 GENERAL INFORMATION, CONTRACTING PARTIES, SCOPE OF APPLICATION
(1) Professional360 GmbH is a company based in Germany, and developer and producer of the 360° panorama photo camera with the brand Panono camera. Professional360 GmbH runs the website panono.com that allows orders or preorders of the Panono camera. Furthermore, Professional360 GmbH provides on its website additional services relating to the Panono camera.
(2) The services of the website panono.com are offered to the user by Professional360 GmbH, Leipziger Strasse 48, 10117 Berlin, Germany (hereinafter referred to as ”Panono”).
(3) The use of all services and thereby established legal relationship between Panono and the user shall exclusively be governed by the following terms of use. By accessing and using the services, the user agrees to be bound by these terms of use, the code of conduct and the privacy policy. These terms of use apply to all contents, services and other features that Panono offers on panono.com. Any deviating terms and conditions of the user shall not be acknowledged, unless Panono explicitly agrees to their application in writing.
(4) These terms of use shall apply to both entrepreneurs (§ 14 German Civil Code) and consumers (§ 13 German Civil Code). Consumer is any natural person, who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that neither be attributed to his trade or business nor to his work as a self-employed person. Entrepreneur is any natural or legal entity or a legally responsible unincorporated firm, who acts commercially or independently at the time of conclusion of a legal transaction. Provided that the user acts as entrepreneur (§14 German Civil Code), legal person under public law or as special fund under public law, these terms of use shall apply to all future legal transactions unless otherwise expressly agreed.
(5) Panono.com is offered in English. These terms of use were written in German and translated into English. In case of any conflict between both versions, the German version shall apply primarily.
(6) These terms of use and the privacy policy may be modified by Panono, if it appears necessary and if it does not cause any prejudice to the customer contravening good faith. Such modification may occur in case of a change of the applicable law, amendment of superior case law or change of the trading circumstances. Panono will notify the user about any modifications, its reasons and the extent of the changes in text format (e.g. via email). The modifications are considered accepted if the user does not disagree at least in text form. Panono will give special notice on this effect in its notification note. The objection has to be received by Panono within four weeks after the user received the notification. If the user disagrees to the changes, the wish for modification is considered rejected. The contract will then resume without the suggested modifications, albeit both parties may terminate the contract with immediate effect.
(7) For special services, Panono is allowed to impose complementary conditions. If those complementary conditions are in conflict with the terms of use, the complementary conditions are to be favoured against the terms of use in cases of conflict. Panono will notify the user in writing (e.g. via e-mail) about the complementary conditions by naming the reasons and the specific scope. To this extend, the terms of previous section (6) apply.
