Consideration of the User’s own conditions is hereby excluded, unless otherwise agreed.
1.2
A user is any natural person concluding a legal transaction, for purposes that are predominantly other than those connected with their commercial or self-employed professional activity. A professional in the sense of these conditions of use is a natural or legal person or a legally constituted partnership, which in concluding a legal transaction, is carrying out commercial or self-employed professional activity.
2. Registration, Beginning of Supply
2.1
Use of the Website https://life4me.plus/, except for read-only access of its content, is only possible by registered Users.
2.2
A use agreement between the Provider and the User for use of the website https://life4me.plus/, where these Terms and Conditions of use apply, is created with successful registration or in the context of read-access as a guest.

  • Patients (Users) do not have to enter any personal data in registration. Only the sex by birth, year of birth, gender and country of the User are asked for. The User can enter real or dummy data. When registering, the User can choose a user-name (different to the automatically given anonymous ID) and set a password. A pseudonym can be used as the user name. It is not recommended that personal data such as an e-mail address is used in the user name. The User gives consent for the voluntary personal user-name to be stored on the Provider’s server. The User also specifies two self-chosen security questions, to which the User specifies an answer. The User can reset the password using these security questions in the event that the password is forgotten. No verification takes place. The data is stored anonymously and used only for statistical purposes. No personal data is collected. By clicking the “Register“ button, registration takes place and the data is transferred.

By clicking the “Register” button, registration takes place and the data is transferred. The doctor or social worker will receive the following notification by e-mail: “Your request will be reviewed by the site administrator and you will be informed of the result shortly.” Then the Providers check whether the details are accurate. Registration will only be accepted if this is the case. The doctor or social worker will receive an e-mail in this case with the content: “Your request is approved”. It is then possible to log in to the website and use the services.
2.5
The User is responsible for a suitable secure password and for maintaining its confidentiality. The User will take all reasonable steps to prevent misuse of the User’s access to the services provided. Should this happen despite this, the Provider must be informed immediately, so that the User account can be blocked by the Provider or the problem solved in another manner.
2.6
Registration is reserved for natural persons with unrestricted legal competence. By registering, the User confirms that this condition is complied with at the time of inception.

Every User can set up multiple user accounts.

2.10
The agreement text is stored by the Provider and is accessible to the User after registration.

3. Services of the Provider

  • If the change is only to the benefit of the User; or
  • If the change is of a purely technical or procedural nature without significant impact on the User.

6. Rights of the Provider
6.1
If the User contravenes legal conditions or these Terms and Conditions of use the website, or the Provider has concrete reason to believe that this has happened, the Provider is entitled, without prior notice or further checking, to
  • Issue a warning,
  • Temporarily or permanently block the User’s access or

The User must ensure that no possibility to allow access for third parties by circumvention is opened up by the User.

Other legal and contractual regulations remain unaffected.
8. Granting of User Rights by the User
Personal data of Patients (users) are not asked for by Life4me+ and thus is not transferred to the Provider. The Provider is, however, entitled to process and use anonymous data and information provided by Users via Life4me+ for statistical purposes. By the use of pseudonyms, processing of medical data is carried out such that it cannot be associated with a specific person without the use of additional information, particularly since additional information is kept separately and subject to technical and organisational measures which ensure that the personal data cannot be associated with an identified or identifiable natural person.
9. Fee
Use of Life4me+ is free.
10. Privacy Policy
10.1
Personal data is only collected if the User passes this to the Provider of the User’s own volition in a possible revocation or in a voluntary feedback. Data like name, company, e-mail address and telephone are stored in this event and are used solely for dealing with the User’s issue or for making contact and the technical administration connected with that. After the enquiry is dealt with, the data will be deleted if that is the wish of the User and deletion of the data is not prevented by a legal obligation to keep it, or the Provider has legitimate interest in further storing.
10.2
With the exception of cases such as those in 10.1 or by registration as a doctor or social worker, no personal data is stored. Connection with doctors takes place via a personal authorisation code.
10.3
If the User forgets the password, this can only be reset if the user knows the log-in and answers two security questions correctly. The security questions and their answers are given by the User at registration. Without a log-in, it is only possible to re-set the password if the User has previous made a contact with the doctor. The User must then visit the doctor in person (contact by telephone is also possible, but not recommended) which will then give the User a code to create a new password. If the User has no connection with a doctor or has no log-in or does not know the correct answers to the security questions, the profile cannot be recovered. In this case, the User must create a new profile. Access from new profile to the data set in the old profile is not possible.
10.4
The Provider’s Privacy Policy at https://life4me.plus/en/terms/privacy-policy/ also apply.
11. RIGHT TO OBJECT
IF, AFTER A BALANCING OF INTERESTS, THE PROVIDER PROCESSES THE USER’S PERSONAL DATA IN THE CONTEXT OF A PREVALENT LEGITIMATE INTEREST, THE USER HAS THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF THIS DATA IN THE FUTURE FOR REASONS ARISING FROM THE USER’S PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.
IF THE USER EXERCISES THIS RIGHT TO OBJECT, THE PROVIDER WILL CEASE PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED. HOWEVER, FURTHER PROCESSING REMAINS POSSIBLE IF THE PROVIDER CAN DEMONSTRATE LEGITIMATE REASONS FOR PROCESSING IT WHICH OUTWEIGH THE INTERESTS, BASIC RIGHTS AND BASIC FREEDOMS, OR IF THIS PROCESSING IS FOR MAKING, EXERCISING OR DEFENDING LEGAL CLAIMS.
IF PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED BY THE PROVIDER FOR PURPOSES OF DIRECT MARKETING, THE USER HAS THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA RELATING TO THE USER FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS KIND OF ADVERTISING. THE USER CAN EXERCISE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.
IF THE USER EXERCISES THE RIGHT TO OBJECT, THE PROVIDER WILL CEASE USING THE DATA CONCERNED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES.
12. Indemnity of Liability
The User indemnifies the Provider from all claims made against the Provider by other Users or third parties in respect of violation of their rights due to content posted by the User or their other use of Life4me+. The User accepts the costs of legal defence arising from this including all court and lawyers’ fees at an appropriate level. This does not apply if the User is not responsible for the breach of law. In the case of claims made by third parties, the User is obliged to submit to the Provider immediate, complete and true information required for the investigation and defence of the claims.
13. Liability
13.1
The Provider states clearly that Life4me+ does not assume any medical or advisory functions. Life4me+ does not treat Users, does not replace any doctor, does not give medical advice and does not analyse and analysis parameters. Some content in Life4me+ is made available by the Provider or its suppliers. The Provider makes every effort to ensure the correctness, completeness and currency of the content, information, and news of third parties which it makes available. However, the Provider is not responsible for the correctness, completeness and currency of this content, regardless of whether this was made available by the Provider, its suppliers or Users of the website. The Provider accepts no liability for the correctness, completeness and currency of such content. In particular, the Provider does not guarantee that information in Life4me+ about HIV clinics, doctors, pharmacies, HIV associations etc. and Google maps is accurate.
13.2
The Provider is responsible only for providing a technical possibility for Users to contact each other. The Provider is not responsible for that contact actually taking place. Furthermore, the Provider is not responsible for the creation and maintenance of a data connection between the User’s IT system and the Provider’s server.
13.3
Life4me+ is offered with the reservation of availability. Availability of 100 % is not technically possible and therefore cannot be guaranteed by the Provider to the User. The Provider will, however, make every effort to maintain service availability as consistently as possible. Specifically, servicing, security or capacity requirements and events beyond the control of the Provider (disruptions to public communication networks, power cuts etc) can lead to disruption or temporary closure of the service. The Provider will carry out maintenance work as far as possible in times of low usage.
13.4
Otherwise, the Provider is liable for all contractual, quasi-contractual and legal and legal claims, including tortious claims, to the User for damages and compensation costs as follows:
The Provider is liable unrestrictedly for any legal reason:
  • where there is intent or gross negligence,
  • for intentional or negligent injury to life, limb or health,
  • due to a guarantee promise unless other regulations are in place in relation to this,
  • due to mandatory liability, such as that provided for under the German Product Liability Act.
13.5
If the Provider should negligently violate an essential contractual obligation, the Provider’s liability is, unless it is limited pursuant to the preceding paragraph, limited to the foreseeable damage typical of this kind of contract. Essential contractual obligations are defined as obligations imposed on the Provider by the content of the contract for the achievement of the contractual purpose, without the fulfilment of which the proper execution of the contract would be impossible and on the fulfilment of which the User should in all normal circumstances be able to rely.
13.6
Otherwise the Provider accepts no liability.
13.7
These liability regulations also apply in respect of liability of the Provider for its agents and legal representatives.
13.8
The Provider is not liable for loss of data, interrupted data transfer or other problems and losses in this connection caused by technical failure for which the Provider is not responsible. The Provider is not liable for damages or losses brought about by the disruption of its operations or the operations of its website caused by force majeure, civil unrest, war and acts of nature events or other events beyond its control (e.g., strikes, lock-outs, traffic disruption, official decrees from the public authorities domestically and abroad) or which are due to technical problems which are not culpably caused. This also applies if these disruptions arise with third parties engaged by the Provider.
14. Duration, Termination
14.1
The agreement for use of Life4me+ is made for an undefined time.
14.2
The right to extraordinary termination for compelling reason remains unaffected. A compelling reason exists if the continuation of the contractual relationship with the party given notice to the agreed ending time or until expiry of a notice period is not reasonable under consideration of all the circumstances of the individual case and balancing the interests of both sides.
A compelling reason is specifically:
  • a significant contravention of important conditions of these Terms and Conditions of use of the website which has not been cleared after a deadline has been given to do so or is repeated and it is impossible or unreasonable to continue the contractual arrangement.
14.3
Total termination of the use agreement requires separate and unambiguous notification.
14.4
If the use agreement is totally terminated, the User loses access to the user account. Termination of the use agreement also ends the obligation of the Provider to store the posted data.
15. Changes to the Terms and Conditions
15.1
The Provider reserves the right to change these Terms and Conditions at any time and without giving a reason. The provider will inform the Users of the changes to the Terms and Conditions on the website.
15.2
The Provider also reserves the right to change these Terms and Conditions
  • if a change in the legal situation makes this a requirement;
  • if in so doing, the Provider is complying with a court decision or a decision of the authorities;
  • if additional, completely new services or service elements are being introduced which need a service description in the Terms and Conditions unless this changes the existing usage relationship disadvantageously;
  • if the change is only to the benefit of the User; or
  • if the change is for purely technical or procedural reasons unless it has significant impacts on the User.
In this case, the Provider shall inform the User of the change(s) to the Terms and Conditions of Use.
16. Miscellaneous
The Provider is neither obliged nor willing to participate in a dispute settlement procedure before the Consumer Arbitration Service.
17. Final Conditions
17.1
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies to all legal relationships between the parties. For consumers (Users), this choice of jurisdiction only applies insofar as the protections of the mandatory conditions of the law of the state in which the consumer normally resides are not withdrawn.
17.2
If the User is acting as a trader, legal person of public law or public law special asset, the seat of the Provider is exclusively the court of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this agreement. The same applies if the User does not have a general court of jurisdiction in Germany, or address or normal residence at the time the action was brought are not known. This does not affect the prerogative of also calling on the court at another legal court of jurisdiction.
