If you do not object within 6 weeks after receipt of the notification, the amended GTC shall be deemed accepted with the effective date specified by CoachingArea.

Our terms of use are applicable in addition to these GTC.
Applicable Law and mandatory Consumer Protection Regulations
If the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is not applied, the law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply in the following cases:
You have your habitual residence in Germany, or
you are a regular resident of a country which is not a member of the European Union.
If you have your habitual residence in an EU member state, German law also applies, whereby the mandatory provisions of the state in which you have your habitual residence remain unaffected.

The password you choose or your Facebook or Google password protects your personal account from unauthorised access. It is your responsibility to keep your password confidential and to ensure that third parties do not have access to it. It is expressly forbidden to give access to the platform to third parties and/or to use the account with their permission. You are solely responsible for ensuring that third parties do not unlawfully use your login information to use the Platform. It is your duty to inform the Provider immediately and to change your password for your Account as soon as you suspect that your login information has been lost, stolen or otherwise appears to be used by a third party.
As a rule, you will always remain logged in while using the platform until you actively log out by logging out or have deleted the relevant browser cookies. It is generally known that there is a risk that third parties can access your account and all personal data if they can dispose of an end device that you have logged in.
Collection, Storage and Processing of your Personal Data
You can simply log in to your customer account/profile with your e-mail address and the password you selected during registration without providing your personal data each time.
For registration we need the following information from you:
email address
your own freely chosen password
We use the information you provide without your separate consent solely for the purpose of fulfilling and processing your registration. It is necessary that you expressly agree if we wish to use your personal data for other purposes such as advertising, market research or the optimisation of our offers. Before declaring your registration, you have the opportunity to give this consent. This consent is completely voluntary and you have the right to revoke it at any time.
Until you delete your customer account or profile yourself, the information you have provided will be stored there.
If your personal data changes, you are responsible for updating it yourself. After you have logged in, you have the option to make any changes online.
You can find further details on the collection of data in our privacy policy.
Uploading content
The content (such as text, images, graphics, logos, videos and links) that you publish or distribute through our platform is your responsibility. It is also your responsibility to ensure that the content is accurate and does not violate any laws or third party rights.
It is prohibited to publish or distribute content on the platform that violates laws, third party rights or good morals. Discriminatory, racist, populist, anti-Semitic, sexist, misogynistic and transphobic, homophobic, violence-glorifying and youth-endangering content is particularly prohibited. Our platform does not serve as a political platform.
Limitation of Liability
We are liable for intent and gross negligence. In addition, we are responsible for the negligent disregard of obligations, the fulfilment of which makes the correct execution of the contract possible in the first place, the breach of which endangers the achievement of the purpose of the contract and the observance of which you as a customer may regularly rely on. In the latter case, however, we are only responsible for the foreseeable, usual damage. We are not responsible for the slightly negligent breach of obligations other than those mentioned in the preceding sentences. It is not possible to apply the above exclusions of liability in the event of injury to life, limb or health. Responsibility under the Product Liability Act shall not be affected.
According to the current state of technology, data communication via the Internet cannot be error-free and/or available at all times. Our responsibility for the constant and uninterrupted availability of our platform therefore does not lie with us.
Final Provisions
The terms and conditions provided here are complete and final. In order to avoid ambiguities or disputes about the agreed contractual content, amendments and additions to these terms and conditions should be recorded in writing. This also applies to the cancellation of this clause in writing.
If you were living in Germany at the time the contract was concluded and have either moved out of Germany at the time the action is brought by us or your place of residence or habitual abode is unknown at that time, the registered office of our company in Munich shall be the place of jurisdiction for all disputes.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that, in addition to the traditional legal process, you also have the option of resolving disputes out of court in accordance with Regulation (EU) No. 524/2013. You can find the Regulation (EU) No. 524/2013 and further details at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/main/index.cfm?event=main.home.chooseLanguage.
You can reach us at our email address info@coachingarea.net. There is no obligation for us to participate in an out-of-court dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board, pursuant to § 36 VSBG.
If certain sections of these GTC are invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the other clauses and the contract as a whole. In this case, invalid or void provisions shall be replaced by valid provisions that are as close as legally possible in their economic effects.
When concluding the contract, we will ask you whether you wish to agree to the execution of the contract within the cancellation period. If you agree to this, we also confirm that you are aware that by agreeing to this you will lose your right of cancellation when the execution of the contract begins.
