Function-related examples: System downtime without restart, data loss/data destruction, incorrect results during time-critical mass processing of data.

The appropriate use of at least one or more software modules is seriously restricted. The error has a significant impact on business processing or security, but allows work to continue.

The warranty period of six months shall commence upon delivery or acceptance. Notices of defects are only valid if they concern reproducible defects and if they are documented in writing within four weeks of delivery of the agreed service. In the event of justified notices of defects, the defects shall be rectified within a reasonable period of time, whereby the customer shall enable all measures necessary for the investigation and rectification of defects.

Corrections and additions that prove necessary up to the handover of the agreed service due to organisational and programming deficiencies for which ILOGS is responsible will be carried out by ILOGS free of charge.

ILOGS will provide assistance, troubleshooting and error and fault rectification for which the customer is responsible, as well as other corrections, changes and additions, for a fee. This applies to the rectification of defects if changes have been made to the licence material or the underlying infrastructure (e.g. operating system, database, etc.) by the client itself or by a third party.

ILOGS will provide the customer with the best possible support in rectifying such faults. However, ILOGS does not guarantee the results achieved by the programme support or that all faults have been rectified.

10.1 No liability for consequential damages

The contracting party in breach shall be obliged to pay damages in the amount of the employee's gross annual salary.

12. data protection & confidentiality

The client and ILOGS commit themselves and their employees to maintain confidentiality about technical, commercial and personnel matters of the other contracting party and not to pass on information about them to third parties. The client assures ILOGS that written concepts or offers addressed to him and their contents will be treated confidentially from the time they are first received.

The confidentiality obligation shall also apply indefinitely for the period after termination of a contract or agreement.

13. duration of contract

The contract is concluded for an indefinite period and can be terminated by registered letter with six months' notice to 31 December of each calendar year.

However, both parties expressly waive the right to terminate the contract prior to the expiry of 12 months from acceptance and complete delivery or rollout of the ordered quantity. This shall not affect the indispensable right of cancellation for good cause. In particular, the inability of the other contracting party to act shall be deemed good cause. If the customer wishes to terminate the contract prematurely for other reasons, the contract shall be deemed terminated upon acceptance of the declaration by the other party under the following condition:
In the event of premature termination of the contract by the client for other reasons, ILOGS is entitled to at least half of the current fees that would have been payable for the duration of the waiver of cancellation, irrespective of the occurrence and proof of damage incurred by ILOGS or fault on the part of the terminating party.
