Terms and conditions

1. Scope and provider

These terms apply to all contracts on the use of the Projection-X Hub and on the purchase of digital content (effects, plug-ins, courses, modules, episodes), subscriptions and tokens between you and:

2. Account

An account is required in order to use the platform. Account holders must be of full legal age (18+). The details provided must be accurate, and the access credentials must be kept confidential. An account is personal and must not be passed on to third parties.

We may suspend an account where there is reasonable suspicion of misuse, in particular where licences or access credentials are passed on. A suspension suspends access; content and credit already acquired remain unaffected by this.

3. Conclusion of contract

The presentation in the shop is not a binding offer. By submitting your order you make an offer; the contract is concluded upon our confirmation or upon provision of the content.

3a. Conclusion of contract in detail

Technically, the contract is concluded in the following steps: you select an item and, via the purchase button, reach a consent dialogue which refers to these terms and to the withdrawal instructions. Upon your confirmation you are forwarded to the checkout of our payment service provider Stripe; where you pay with tokens, you instead complete the purchase by way of a confirmation directly on the platform.

You can check and correct your entries at any time up to the final click that triggers payment — in the consent dialogue by cancelling, and in the Stripe checkout via the input fields provided there.

We store the contract text (your order data and the version of these terms applicable at the time of purchase) and send it to you with the confirmation email. The contract languages are German and English; in the event of discrepancies, the German version prevails.

4. Prices and payment

All prices are final prices in euros. As a small business within the meaning of Section 19 UStG (German Value Added Tax Act), we do not show value added tax. Payment is made via our payment service provider Stripe.

5. Tokens

Tokens are platform-internal credit for the acquisition of content. They are not legal tender, are not transferable and are not exchanged back into money. On redemption, one token corresponds to a fixed value which is stated in the shop.

Purchased tokens do not expire. Tokens from a subscription accumulate up to an upper limit stated in the shop; instalments exceeding that limit lapse.

If the provider discontinues the platform or terminates the account without the user being responsible for this, unused token credit that was acquired for payment is refunded.

5a. Referral programme

Anyone who links a product from our range in a community post may receive a share in purchases that come about through that link. The share is granted exclusively in tokens; there is no entitlement to payment in money.

The following conditions apply:

• Amount: 2 % of the token price of the item purchased, rounded down to whole tokens, from a token price of 10 upwards. Below that, no share arises.
• Attribution: A share arises if the purchasing person accessed the same item within 14 days before the purchase via the link in another person’s published post. The most recent such access is decisive; it is used up thereafter. At most one share arises per purchasing person and item.
• Crediting: 45 days after the purchase. If the purchase is refunded or charged back before then, no credit arises. If the refund occurs thereafter, the credit is reversed; an amount that is no longer covered is set off against future shares and, until then, blocks credit of the same amount. In the case of a partial refund, the share is reduced proportionately.
• Upper limits as a limit on entitlement: at most 50 tokens per sale, at most 150 tokens per account in 30 days, at most 3 shares per pair of linking and purchasing account per year, as well as a platform-wide monthly limit. Above these limits no entitlement arises; there is no subsequent making good.
• Requirements: The linking account has existed for at least 30 days and itself has a paid order or a current subscription. Purchases via your own posts are excluded.
• Misuse: Where there is reasonable suspicion of coordinated purchases, secondary accounts or other circumvention, we may suspend participation and cause shares not yet credited to lapse.

Posts containing such a link are marked on the platform as a remunerated recommendation. Creators are themselves responsible for taxing the remuneration they receive.

We may amend or end the programme with effect for the future. Shares that have already arisen remain in place on the conditions applicable when they arose.

5b. Effect vote

In the effect vote, the community decides in rounds which effect is developed next. The announcement of a round states the deadlines, the candidates and the prizes; it is decisive for the round in question.

• By submitting an idea you grant us the right to implement, publish and exploit it. There is no entitlement to implementation.
• If your idea is implemented, you receive a share in tokens of the token price of every sale as well as a one-off credit upon publication. The amount, the term and the upper limit are stated in the announcement of the round and in the view of the vote.
• The leading places in a round receive the finished effect free of charge. If they already own it, a credit in tokens takes its place.
• Account holders of full legal age are eligible to take part. The selection among the candidates is at the editorial team’s discretion; in the event of a tie, the rule stated in the announcement of the round decides.

6. Subscriptions

Subscriptions are renewed automatically for the term selected unless they are terminated before the end of that term. Termination is possible at any time in your account under “Settings → Billing” and takes effect at the end of the period paid for.

When a subscription ends, access to the content unlocked through it ceases. Content purchased individually and tokens already credited are retained.

6a. One-to-one coaching

Booked one-to-one coaching appointments can be rescheduled free of charge up to 24 hours before they begin. If you do not attend the appointment without having cancelled in good time, the entitlement to remuneration remains in place (Section 615 BGB, German Civil Code); we offer a replacement appointment as a gesture of goodwill.

If the provider cancels an appointment, the remuneration is refunded or the appointment is rescheduled by mutual agreement.

Sessions are held via the video room of the platform or via an alternative route notified in good time.

7. Rights of use

Upon acquisition — including free of charge (gift, promotion) — you receive a non-exclusive, unlimited in time and non-transferable right to use the content for your own projects — including commercially, for instance in shows, commissioned work and publications.

The following is not permitted:

• passing on, reselling or lending the files themselves,
• publishing a piece of content in unaltered form as your own product or as part of a collection,
• circumventing technical protection measures, in particular the licence check.

Course content is intended for personal learning. Passing on videos, project files or access credentials is not permitted.

8. Licences and devices

Software requiring a licence is bound to a number of devices stated in the shop. Devices can be managed and released in your account. Where there is reasonable suspicion of abusive use, we may block a licence.

9. User content

You remain responsible for posts, comments, reviews and uploaded media. You warrant that you hold the necessary rights and do not infringe the rights of third parties. You grant us a non-exclusive right to display this content within the platform; this also covers technical reproduction and delivery to other users by email notification. For copies that have already been distributed in this way, the grant of rights remains unaffected by the deletion of an account.

The following in particular are not permitted:

• pornographic depictions, depictions of sexualised violence and nudity without an artistic or stage-related context,
• glorification of violence, incitement to hatred, insults and harassment,
• advertising without prior arrangement and content that infringes the rights of third parties.

We review reports about posts, comments, reviews and uploaded media ourselves. If we establish an infringement, we hide or remove the content and give reasons for this to its author. You can object to the decision by email to connect@projection-x.de; we will then review the case again. In the event of repeated or serious infringements, we block the account.

10. Availability

We endeavour to provide continuous operation, but we do not owe any particular availability. Maintenance work and faults may lead to interruptions. Files already downloaded remain unaffected by this.

11. Liability

We are liable without limitation in cases of intent and gross negligence as well as for injury to life, body or health. In cases of simple negligence we are liable only for the breach of a material contractual obligation and limited to the typical, foreseeable damage. Liability under the Produkthaftungsgesetz (German Product Liability Act) remains unaffected.

12. Right of withdrawal

Consumers have a right of withdrawal. The details and the exception for digital content are set out in the withdrawal instructions.

13. Amendments to these terms

We may amend these terms with effect for the future in so far as this is necessary on account of (a) a change in the legal situation or in case law, (b) changed security requirements or (c) the introduction of new, free features of the platform. Fees and the principal contractual obligations of either party cannot be changed in this way.

We will inform you of amendments by email at least six weeks before they take effect. If you do not object before they take effect, the amendments are deemed to have been accepted; we draw your attention to this and to your right to object separately in the notification. If you do object, you may terminate the contract extraordinarily and free of charge up to the time the amendment takes effect (special right of termination).

14. Final provisions

German law applies to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Vis-à-vis consumers, this choice of law applies only in so far as it does not deprive them of the protection of mandatory provisions of the state of their habitual residence. Should any provision be invalid, the contract remains effective in all other respects.
