The Contracting Parties agree to the conclusion of the License Contract between the parties pursuant to Sec. 46 (1) of Act No. 121/2000 Coll., the Copyright Act, according to these GBTC.

Contract – a contract with the Provider as the lessor on the one side and a User as the lessee on the other side, the subject-matter of the Contract being the execution of the Delivery within the agreed period, in the case of an Individual Order. With respect to the nature of the Delivery, it can be a lease agreement, a license contract, an innominate contract or a hybrid contract (pursuant to Sec. 1746 (2) of the Civil Code), always concluded under Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code, and Act No. 121/2000 Coll., the Copyright Act. If reference is made to a Contract thereafter in these GBTC, the Contract is understood to mean any document that constitutes the Contract or is a part thereof, such as an Order, inseparable annex, price list, GBTC, and so on. The Contracting Parties acknowledge and agree that a Contract is made by a means of distance communication (distance contract) and that it consists of a User’s Order, the Provider’s Acceptance and these GBTC.

Electronic Order Form, or only the “Order Form”, is a means to create an Order by a User through a form available on the website of the Provider.

An Order is made electronically using the Electronic Order Form on the website of the Provider. The sending of an electronic Order is deemed to be a User’s act which indisputably identifies the Order, price, User and the means of payment, i.e. for the User it is a binding offer to make a Contract. An electronic Order is valid on condition that all required details in the Order Form are filled out, that it is possible to familiarise oneself with these GBTC on the Provider’s website, and that the User confirms that it has familiarised itself with these GBTC.

Provider’s Acceptance – electronic confirmation of the User’s Order by the Provider by e-mail with the following details: the Provider’s identification details, the Provider’s declaration of its ability to provide the Delivery to the User, a Contract duration, the date of supply of the Delivery by the Provider to the User, the amount of Provider’s remuneration and its due date, the amount of advance payment and its due date.

In the case of an Individual Order, the Provider is entitled to determine the date unilaterally depending on the demands of the Delivery and its time and operational capacity. The Delivery Date is stated in the acceptance of an Order. The Provider undertakes to make and supply a Delivery item to a User in accordance with the schedule stated in the acceptance of an Order. In case of delay in handing over documents necessary to make a Delivery on the part of the User, the Provider is entitled to extend the date for handing over the Delivery.

Extra Work – work performed by the Provider on a Delivery beyond the scope of work stipulated in a Contract or expressly assumed by a Contract, required by the User to achieve their objectives or aims. Extra Work is deemed to be any change which the User requires the Provider to make on the already agreed part of the Delivery. Extra Work is also deemed to be any other function required by the User beyond the Delivery specification stated in the acceptance of an Order. After the User specifies their requirement of Extra Work, the contractor prepares its price calculation including the time frame of its execution and the means of payment, which will be sent to the ordering party for approval. The Provider may perform Extra Work only upon the User’s express specific request and under the conditions agreed with the User in a mutually approved annex to the Contract, which can also be arranged by means of distance communication.

Advance Payment – financial fulfilment by the User for the benefit of the Provider before the Provider proceeds to execute a Delivery. The amount of Advance Payment and its due date will be determined unilaterally by the Provider with respect to the demands of the Delivery. The Advance Payment is at least 40% of the Delivery price.

Each User may log in only under an e-mail address that can be clearly assigned to the given company. For example, [email protected] is an e-mail address that may be clearly assigned to XYZ s.r.o.. Every company holding a valid multi-user license is obliged, upon the Provider’s request, to show that it has given access to the application through the given e-mail address only and solely to its employee. A company undertakes to provide access to the purchased multi-user license only to Users who are its employees.

1.7.3 Where a single-user license is purchased, the User undertakes to access the application only for its own use. The User may not provide its access credentials to a third person.

II. Conclusion of a Contract

2.1 Procedure to conclude a Contract and a Contract granting a license to exercise the right to use a work

2.1.1 Individual Orders are made by means of an on-line form on the product website or an e-mail. A Contract to grant a license to exercise the right to use a work is concluded once the Provider accepts an Order sent by the User via the on-line form on the product website or an e-mail, according to Art. 2.1.5. Acceptance is understood to mean also the issuance of a pro-forma invoice by the Provider and its sending to the User.

2.1.2 Contractual relationship between the Provider and the User in connection with the Provider’s performance carried out in connection with a Delivery is created:

  • upon the receipt of the User’s electronic or paper Order by the Provider, and
  • an electronic or written (e-mail, WWW interface) acceptance of such an Order of the User by the Provider,
  • upon the issuance of an invoice to the amount corresponding to the type of license chosen by the User or to the amount corresponding to the extension of the given license type by the Provider and its sending (electronically or in writing) to the User,
  • upon the payment of the first invoice by the User to the amount and under the conditions specified in the invoice and in the Provider’s Acceptance.

2.1.3 On the basis of the Contract concluded in this way between the Provider and the User, the Provider undertakes to provide the Delivery and grant a license to the User.

2.1.4 The User is obliged to pay the Provider a price for the Delivery and license in a set manner, stated in the Provider’s Acceptance.

2.1.5 The Order must contain, besides the requisites stated above, requisites as stated in the Electronic Order Form on the website of the Provider.

2.1.6 After receiving the Order, the Provider will send the acceptance of the Order to the User by e-mail or post. The Provider is obliged to send the acceptance of the Order within 4 working days of the day of delivery of the Order. If the basic data (the scope and characteristics of the Order) in the acceptance of the Order issued by the Provider match the content of the User’s Order, the Provider confirms, by sending the acceptance of the Order, its willingness to accept the User’s Order as binding, and if all other conditions stated above are met, i.e. in particular the payment of an Advance Payment by the User to the Provider, the Contract is concluded – a contractual relationship is created.

2.1.7 If any of the requirements stated in the User’s Order cannot be satisfied by the Provider, the Provider will send an offer to the User again, stating possible options of the Order, and will request the User’s opinion. If the User’s Order contains a non-standard Delivery, the Provider may request, before accepting the Order, 7 working days to consider the Order. In case of an individual Order, the Delivery Date, stated on the acceptance of the Order, is confirmed upon the payment of an Advance Payment and a Deposit by the User.

2.1.8 A modified Order sent to the User according to Sec. 2.1.7 of GBTC is deemed to be a new offer to make a Contract and in this case a contractual relationship is created only upon the acceptance of such offer by the User.

2.1.9 The content and the scope of Deliveries to be provided and other provisions, such as in particular the setting of the aims, the duration, the time-limit and the obligations of the User to render assistance and payments, are determined according to these GBTC and each and every Contract, if such Contracts contain provisions different from these GBTC.

2.1.10 In case of an Individual Order, the Provider undertakes to make and hand over a Delivery at its own expense and within the agreed time.

2.1.11 In the case of an Individual Order, the User undertakes to hand over to the Provider all necessary documents and render necessary assistance for the due performance of its obligations under this Contract according to the time schedule.

2.1.12 For the purpose of these GBTC, the Contract and mutual cooperation, the User expressly agrees that if they do not actively respond to any documents, time schedules, notifications, detailed information or requests of the Provider within 3 working days, the Provider will deem all its proposals as having been approved by the User.

2.1.13 Amendments to the Contract are agreed by the User and the Provider in a manner stated in Art. 2.1 and subseq.

2.1.14 The Provider is entitled to request that the User prove his or her identity by a copy of an identity card or another photo ID, and in the case of the User’s representative the Provider is entitled to request that the representative prove their relation to the User by submitting a written power of attorney authorising the User’s representative to act for the User. The Provider is entitled to make and keep a copy of an identity document or a power of attorney according to the previous sentence for the purpose of its record-keeping.

2.2 Individual Order

2.2.1 The issuance of an Order is usually preceded by a price offer from the Provider stated on its product website or made upon the User’s request.

2.2.2 All offers of the Provider remain non-binding unless otherwise expressly stated in the offer. The conclusion of Contracts and other provisions become binding only upon the Provider’s Acceptance. The right to slight, technically contingent deviations from the offer is reserved by the Provider even after the acceptance of a Delivery.

2.2.3 Any individual modifications implemented under the User’s Order exclude subsequent updates specified in Art. 4.2.

2.2.4 The User pledges that without the prior written consent of the Provider, third persons will not be acquainted in any way with the offer in question, if it is made upon the User’s request, since the information is confidential within Sec. 1730 of the Civil Code. The User is responsible for the damage caused and the loss of profits.

2.3 The cancellation of an Order

2.3.1 The cancellation of an Order on the part of a User – the User may cancel their Order within 3 days of the binding acceptance of the Order. The Order must be cancelled and this confirmed by e-mail: [email protected]. The User always states the number of the Order and possibly also the reason for its cancellation. If the User decides to cancel the Order after the period of 3 days, it is possible to do so according to the Article “Withdrawal from a Contract”.

2.3.2 The cancellation of an Order on the part of the Provider – the Provider reserves the right to cancel an Order or a part thereof if it is not able to meet the Delivery Date of an Individual Order due to serious reasons or if it no longer provides the Delivery or if the Delivery price has significantly changed. Should this situation occur, the Provider will contact the User by e-mail or phone and, as the case may be, the Provider and the User will discuss further steps. If there is no substitute for the Delivery, the Order will be cancelled.

III. Delivery distribution, price, payment conditions

3.1 The distribution of a Delivery

3.1.1 The User may obtain the Delivery in the way published on the product website. The basic form of distribution is the lease of the Delivery.

3.1.2 The distribution of the Delivery by means of leasing is carried out solely by means of the hosting of the Delivery on the Provider’s servers. In such a case the Provider is obliged to make a reasonable effort to make the Delivery available to the maximum extent.

3.2 Price

3.2.1 The Provider's remuneration with the license price is determined depending on the type of Delivery distribution in accordance with a Contract. Such a price does not include any other services of the Provider. Extra Work is charged for by the Provider upon an individual agreement, usually at an hourly rate agreed with the person interested in such services.

3.2.2 Catalogues and price lists issued by the Provider, as well as oral and telephone information or information provided by means of internet www servers about the prices of a Delivery, are informative, non-binding on the part of the Provider and unenforceable by the User. The Provider reserves the right to change the technical parameters or if need be also the prices of a Delivery without prior notice. The Provider is not responsible for mistakes that occur during the printing of business and technical documents.

3.2.3 To obtain a specific price and the specifications of an individual Order, the User is entitled to request a binding price offer (hereinafter only a "binding price offer"), which is valid for 30 calendar days after the issuance day, unless stated otherwise.

3.2.4 For the price calculation of a Delivery, prices stated in the valid binding price offer of the Provider or prices valid at the time of the acceptance of the Delivery apply. The prices of the Delivery stated in the price offer do not include any related services, unless otherwise expressly stated. A request for related services needs to be expressly stated in the Order.

3.2.5 A special offer of a Delivery is valid only in case of the purchase of the given amount or type of Deliveries, and always only until the given date, and the timely payment of an Advance Payment.

3.2.6 The specific prices of Deliveries and performances and the total payment follow from a given specific Contract or a valid price list of the Provider.

3.3 Payment conditions

3.3.1 The User always makes payments on the basis of an electronic or paper pro-forma invoice or an invoice in the form of a tax document sent by the Provider, with the due date at least 5 days from the issue date. Payment is made by transfer to the Provider's account as stated in the pro- forma invoice. This provision is not valid in the case of on-line payments (e.g. by PayPal, or by payment or credit cards). In such cases the User makes payment through the relevant interface of an on-line payment system to which it is redirected during the Order.

3.3.2 After the acceptance of the User's order by the Provider, the Provider issues the User a pro-forma invoice or a paper invoice in the form of a tax document, which the User is obliged to pay, whereby a Contract in accordance with Art. 2.1.2 of GBTC is made. After the Delivery is launched, the User will always receive, if the pro-forma invoice is paid, a final invoice – a tax document which is at the same time deemed to be a delivery note. The final invoice includes a statement of the account of an Advance Payment.

3.3.3 The User's duty to pay its obligation with respect to the Provider in a due and timely manner is fulfilled on the day on which the agreed payment is credited to the Provider's account stated in the invoice.

3.3.4 If the User requests the modification of regular payment conditions, these need to be discussed with the Provider and the conditions thus discussed stated in an Order. The modification of payment conditions may influence the amount of the agreed price of a Delivery.

3.3.5 If the User for any reason is not able to pay an invoice issued by the Provider by the due date stated therein, they are obliged immediately to contact the Provider and agree with the Provider on the change of payment conditions. If they fail to do so, the Provider is entitled to charge the User a contractual penalty of 0.1% of the outstanding amount excluding VAT for each day of delay after the original due date of the obligation until its complete payment. In the case of a delay in payment, the Provider will send successively four demands for payment to the User. With the third demand, the Provider is entitled to charge the User an additional one-time contractual penalty of EUR 4. With the fourth demand, the Provider is entitled to charge an additional one-time contractual penalty of EUR 200.

3.3.6 If the User fails to meet its obligation to pay the price for the deliverables in due time and in full, the Provider is entitled to suspend the providing of deliverables until the User's obligation has been paid in full, including the agreed interest (penalty) or contractual penalties for delayed payment. The suspension of performance does not affect the User's duty to pay all outstanding obligations, to continue to make payments for the deliverables and to pay the Provider contractual penalties, interest on late payment and damages.

3.3.7 If the User fails to meet its obligation to pay the price for the deliverables in due time and in full, the Provider is entitled to hand over the claim(s) to an external company for the due collection thereof in full, including all claims arising out of the collection of the claim.

IV. Terms of delivery

4.2.4 The Provider decides on the periodicity and scope of updates. The primary aim of updates is to adapt the Delivery to new versions of programming languages in which the Delivery is written.

  • those which are to remain in existence even after the termination of the Contract given their nature and according to the will of the parties, in particular the rights and obligations contained in provisions on damages, contractual penalties, the obligation to maintain confidentiality or provisions on the protection of the Provider’s copyright,
  • the User’s obligation to pay outstanding commitments, e.g. the price of the Delivery or part thereof actually provided.

4.3.8 When the withdrawal from the Contract becomes effective:

  • Orders issued (or parts thereof) for Deliveries not yet provided expire; with respect to Deliveries which have been provided but not paid for at that time, the Contract remains in force and the User is obliged to pay the agreed price to the Provider for such Deliveries; however, the parties may agree otherwise,
  • the Provider has the right to charge for Deliveries which have been actually provided and/or charge for the actual performance of a Delivery, and the User is obliged to pay the agreed price for such Deliveries.

VIII of the GBTC, delivered by registered letter to a relevant contact address of the other party, and they are deemed to have been delivered and become effective upon their delivery by post.
