2.3 Technical and design deviations from descriptions and information in brochures, catalogs and written offer documents as well as in software product descriptions and samples remain reserved until delivery, without any rights against Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH being derived from this, if the changes do not impair the performance of the purchased item, are reasonable for the licensee or represent an advantage for the licensee.

5.1 Delivery dates are considered agreed upon if they have been confirmed in writing by Winweb Informationstechnologie.

5.5 If a binding delivery date is exceeded or the handover is delayed for reasons for which Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH is not responsible, the specified date shall be postponed appropriately. Delivery and performance delays due to force majeure and due to events that make delivery by Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH substantially more difficult or impossible (difficulties in procuring materials, operational disruptions, strike, statutory or official orders etc.), even if they occur at our suppliers or their subcontractors, shall not be the responsibility of Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH even in the case of bindingly agreed deadlines and dates. The aforementioned reasons entitle Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH to postpone delivery and performance by the duration of the hindrance plus an appropriate start-up time or to withdraw from the contract in whole or in part due to the unfulfilled part.
5.6 If a delivery period or a delivery date is exceeded for reasons for which Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH is responsible, the licensee may set an appropriate additional period for delivery in writing.

7.2 Upon purchase of the winweb-food software, the right to use it is granted for an unlimited period. The purchase of the software also includes extensions or further developments of the functionality of the purchased software acquired at the time of conclusion of the contract or commissioned subsequently (=upgrades) and, if a maintenance contract exists, the elimination or correction of program errors (=updates) of the software that Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH provides to the licensee within the scope of contract fulfillment.
7.3 The purchased item remains the property of Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH until the purchase price has been paid in full on the basis of the purchase agreement.

7.4 If the licensee defaults on payment or does not fulfill his obligations arising from the retention of title, Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH may demand the return of the purchased item. In this case, the licensee is obliged to return the purchased item without delay. The licensee shall bear all costs of the repossession and realization of the purchased item.
7.5 As long as the retention of title exists, any sale, transfer by way of security, pledging, renting or other transfer of the purchased item that impairs the security of Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH, as well as its modification, is permissible only with the prior written consent of Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH. The licensee is obliged to keep the purchased item in proper condition for the duration of the retention of title, to have all maintenance work stipulated by the manufacturer and necessary repairs carried out without delay.
7.6 In the event of access by third parties, in particular in the case of seizures of the object of purchase, the licensee must point out the retention of title and immediately notify Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH in writing. A resale is only possible with the written consent of Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH.
7.7 In the case of renting the winweb-food software, this results in a time-limited provision of the scope of use of winweb-food specified in the order confirmation. The rental of the software also includes extensions or further developments of the functionality of the rented software (=upgrades) or elimination or correction of program errors (=updates) of the software that Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH provides to the tenant within the scope of contract fulfillment.

8.6 The same applies in the event of further use without a valid software license agreement (rental). In this case, the damage shall be determined based on the delivered programs located on the system in accordance with the current software license fees resulting from the respective price list.

In accordance with the terms of the manufacturer's warranty, Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH shall fulfill the warranty obligation at its discretion in accordance with the technical requirements by repair or replacement of defective parts. If the defect cannot be remedied, the customer may assert rescission or reduction.

This warranty applies exclusively to software created and licensed by Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH and installed by it on prescribed hardware configurations and operating systems. The technical data, specifications and performance characteristics in the software product description do not constitute assurances, unless they are expressly designated as such and have been set down in writing in the software license agreement.
9.2.2 As part of the warranty, Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH shall provide free rectification for all program errors reported to it by e-mail, by telephone or in writing, insofar as these have been sufficiently documented by the licensee and are therefore reproducible.

10.8 In the event of a claim against Winweb Informationstechnologie GmbH arising from warranty or liability, any contributory fault on the part of the licensee shall be taken into appropriate account, in particular in the case of insufficient error reports or insufficient data backup. Insufficient data backup exists in particular if the licensee has failed to take appropriate protective measures in accordance with the state of the art against external influences, in particular against computer viruses and other phenomena that may endanger individual data or an entire data set.
